I don't think there should be any pit squares on legal tiles for Tile Wars. There are a couple new tile packs, too, that I don't think have been reviewed for Tile Wars. Thoughts on those? |

I will Double Check again later, But i realy Did not see more than 1 or 2 tiles that sholuld be legal. Now to the Pits, THe only issue i see is with the Battle Droid Factory, and Destroyer Droid Factory. These have pits, but they are much smaller and have not caused an issue as much in the past. Also they dont have the Choke points that the other tile does. |

some of the tiles have swimming pools, that are considered pits(must be really deep, or SWM's can't swim) so, it not just real pits, it's pool pits, like the one TJ used @ GC any tiles with pits should be banned |

There are swimming pool tiles and I believe they are pits, too, but the tile I was using was from a floating base, so it was an opening to an ocean. Quite a bit deeper. In any case, I agree with the no pits sentiment. |

Dimensional Time Ship tile set was recently released by Christopher West. Which ones should be legal for Tile Wars? Suggestions... Legal: Private Collection (2-square door on edge, lots of low objects) Port Side Quantum Engine (Ditto above) Storage Compartment (Ditto above) Observatory Master Suite (one square for possible hiding, but the door stays open) Gardens The Library Regeneration Chamber Swimming Pool (all difficult terrain) Planetarium Regeneration Center Illegal: Control Room Left Control Room Right Nexus Core Left Nexus Core Right Alternate Control Chamber Left Alternate Control Chamber Right (all 6 of these are obvious - only 1 square for a door) Starboard Side Quantum Engine (1 square choke-point) Intersection (escape pod too perfect for hiding) Access Corridor (even worse than Intersection) Guest Rooms (too easy to hide in the rooms) Cloister top/Cloister bottom(only 1 square door at edge) Port Side wing (pits... unless Caedus gets changed, then make it legal) Starboard Side Wing (same) Mess Deck (too many hiding spots) Unfortunately, I don't see any that are likely to be used. The ones that look interesting are "too" interesting with doors and hiding spots where GMA shootes can easily pop in/out. The ones I suggested as legal are all pretty boring. Open a door and everybody is right there. |

If SBM doesn't allow movement into pits, pits could be okay. The balance committee is talking about that. Pushing and repulsing around pits could be fun. Probably not broken. Very rarely comes up in normal skirmishes. |

We should have a document much like the map list for this. |

You know what would be AWESOME? (Mr Admin, sir) A new forum for "Alternative Formats" Then the official TILE WARS thread could be stickies there. We could have Royal Rumble, King of the Ring, Dynamic Duos, Assassin Style, Minis Madness, etc. We could even post rules for each mass battle. We actually really need this. |
