Battle Report: PAX East 2016 Triple Threat Match

It turns out only three of us could make it to PAX East this year.  This game is the result.  :-)

The point totals for the beginning of the game were as follows:
Me (3 frames & 11 systems) = (7 Points per asset) * (5 assets) = 35 points.  (Hellhounds)
Stevenik (3 frames & 12 systems) = (6 points per asset) * (5 assets) = 30 points.  (High Steppers)
Jay Biquadrate (3 frames & 12 systems) = (6 points per asset) * (5 assets) = 30 points.

Here are the pictures from the start of the game.

Thoughts & Observations:

• We didn't use Single Shot Rockets.
• Knowing when to run away is an important skill.
• Knowing when to quit is also an important skill.
• Next year I'm going for Primary Attacker.
• We should have cleared the table a bit more.  It would have helped with photo editing if the back border of the play area was clearer.
• Even with less people this year this was still a fun game.
• This was Jay's first full scale game.  Two years in a row for that.
