Lekkie deja vu.

Ale to będzie śmieszne. Wystartowaliśmy z zapisami i już mamy 11 graczy.

Sign ups will last until Tuesday 9th April  @ 10PM CET and first round pairings will follow immediately. To register you dont need to announce your deck or clan.

Lotus Arc legality, so Lotus legal cards since Dawn of the Empire till The Truest Test. We use Lotus era printings.

Official DEFAULT Sun and Moon database.

Use Tournament Mode and name your games "Lotus" (in "Tournament Name" field).

One deck for whole tournament. No changes allowed. Notice that in Tournament Mode every deck has its own checksum number visible to TO (Tournament Organizer).

There will be around 7 days for every round to schedule and play game or match.

Swiss phase is played by single game. Play-in, Tops and Final will be in best-of-three. If less than 8 players there will be round-robin phase only. Last official AEG Floor Rules will be used for number of rounds and cuts.

Person that disconnects needs to try to reconnect as fast as it's possible (maximum 2 minutes) or automatically loses that game. Player that is still online should wait at least 2 minutes for reconnection or contact via Discord. If it won't happen, on agreed upon by both players, they may start this game again.

Winner reports result of the game by private message to TO (me).

No results equals double loss (0 points for every player).

Players have up to 3 days after round start to contact their opponent about scheduling a game.

Player that will lose contact (no answers to current opponent or Tournament Organiser about scheduling game) for two rounds in a row will be dropped from event.

All players should check the 'Hide Hand From Spectators' option during tournament games.

All players must check the 'Verbose Chat Log' option in the player options.

All players have to use latest Sun and Moon version and update immediately if it's available.

Some technical tips and reminders:

here's folder i will fill with some helpful stuff like Lotus rulebook etc. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1j9Mcdwzs9q3dEhV6iTdUuwmCaWP_H65N?usp=sharing

you may also download Lotus era cards images from Google Drive, link is in ⁠welcome-channel

SnM uses Ivory era framework so you must remember about classic phases like Events phase or Discard phase or Cavalry Maneuvers. So turn on "Don't Unbow Card on New turn" and don't use "Unbow and Reveal All" action to reveal all cards at the begining of the turn. Instead follow old Events phase rule - cards are going to be revealed (and resolved in case of Events) one by one, starting from left.

if MRP version of Stronghold has different starting honor than Lotus printing you must include in your deck any "dummy" Sensei that will fix it. As example Lotus printing of The Hall of Ancestors has 6 FH, while in database it's 7 FH of Samurai one. So you must add eg Tomorrow Sensei as dummy Sensei to modify starting honor.

as default Sun and Moon displays most recent printing of every card. To display specific old  printing you have to:


a) manually edit deck list in any text editor and add acronym of expansion that cards come from in brackets like this:
Insight (RotS)
False Trail (WoL)
Ring of Air (Lotus)

or

b)  type a expansion acronym in deckbuilder (Any Set field), search for a card and it will be displayed as card_name (expansion_acronym). Then click it to add it to the deck.

i am aware that SnM database is missing some cards. If you noticed a card that is absent but you want to put it into your deck, please use any other similiar card and inform your opponent about any "proxy" card before game starts. "Proxy" list is also fixed through whole tournament and Tournament Organiser should get such list before first game.

Jak dla mnie o jeden boost i o jeden nerf za daleko.

https://jlsumerlin.wixsite.com/onyx-lives--project/post/gathering-storms-previews-week-schedule

Here is the current Previews Week Schedule:

Monday  3/25 - Stronghold, Events, and Holdings
Tuesday 3/26 - Mantis Personalities and Sensei
Wednesday 3/27 - Other Clan Personalities
Thursday 3/28 - Followers and Items
Friday 3/29 - Strategies
Saturday, 3/30 - Full Release

For those unfamiliar, these are the rules for "Raid Attacks", being introduced in this set.

A card effect may create a Raid Attack. This is an additional Attack Phase where only one battlefield is created, not at any Province. Its battle is a Raid battle, whose resolution does not destroy defending armies and cannot destroy Provinces. Card effects cannot move units from this battlefield to any other battlefield during a Raid battle. Card effects that specify Raid battles or have effects that specifically reference Raid battles (i.e. "If you won a Raid battle this turn, produce 1 Gold") are referencing this specific type of battle only. Winning a Raid battle has no inherent benefit, only those stipulated by card effects.

All other normal rules for an Attack Phase (assignment, resolution) occur as normal. Additional stipulations (ie "Create a Raid Attack whose resolution does not bow your Naval Personalities", etc.) that may alter the Raid Attack or Raid battle can be applied by card effects.

Some abilities will only be usable during Raid battles. These abilities will have the ability keyword "Raid" (ie Raid Battle, Raid Engage).

The Onyx Rules Datasheet available in our Google Drive has been updated to include these rules.

Co ważne, nowy rulebookowy Raid nie zapewnia nieśmiertelności atakującemu. Tylko jednostki broniącego nie mogę zginąć w rezolucji.

W najbliższym czasie spodziewajmy się preview nowego dodatku (Mantis vs Mantis) oraz kilku poprawek. Najlepiej nie przyzwyczajać się do obecnych wordingów kart:

Resplendent Pearl Cache
The Viper's Teeth
The Crane Stronghold
Levied Refugees
Suikihime Wind 

Sun and Moon v1.6.20: (3/16/2024)

• Changed default outgoing mail server to new service to improve the reliability of delivering tournament reports.
