HOPEFULLY this is the right place. 3rd times the charm

With crazy force org how do you think tournaments will handle 7th?
I just dont see tourneys happening unless they ban the unrestricted force org.

I would expect that it will be much the same as now, with some events running Comp and some not, some allowing Escalation and some not, some allowing Forgeworld and some not...

Some events will run Battle Forged only, and some will allow everything.

Enough people may quit after they get tired of the inconsistent mess that it won't matter.

It would really be in their best interest to set up "formats" similar to other games.

example: "codex tournament," "allies tournament," "escalation tournament," and whatever you want to call an "all in" format. You don't find much contention among say, Magic players about what they do and don't want to play against. It's a simple "hey, you got a standard deck?" "Nah just an extended from a ways back." "Ok cool I'll grab my extended."

We don't even know that 7th edition is a thing yet, and people are trying to speculate about what tournament organizers will allow? There's a reason I don't like this game anymore. I'm going to go shut up now.

Y'know, I keep wondering if this will kill people playing.
Then I just laugh at the preposterous nature of it. How will they treat it?
Quite frankly, I think 6th was great, but it was the codexes combined with allies that killed it.

So after Yakface asked you to take the discussion to the rumour thread, you instead made another new thread just in a different forum?

Yes, we do. Check the News and Rumours board.


But yes, as per Yakface's post in the other identical threads, let's put this one to bed for now.
