Details: The Sanctum will host a Double Elimination Tournament with Blind Mech Selection, with over $100 in prizes! Each player will draw from a pool of sealed boxes, each containing a different 'Mech chassis designation. Once you've drawn your chassis, you may select any canonical variant of that 'Mech, but there are no trades, your drawn 'Mech is final - no swapping with other players.

There will be a 2,200 Battle Value total limit, but players may adjust pilot skills (Gunnery/Piloting) within BV constraints. Each player will field one 'Mech with their customized pilot, with standard tournament legal equipment only.

This will be a double elimination bracket tournament, in which two losses eliminate you. Winners and losers brackets will run parallel, and each round will consist of head-to-head battles. Standard BattleTech combat rules apply, with victory if the opposing 'Mech is destroyed, or the pilot is unconscious or withdraws. The winners will advance to the next round until one champion remains!

Supplies Needed: Bring your D6 dice!

Minimum Number of Players: 4

Tournament Organizer: James M.
