I mean sure if you’re still accepting, you could change the format a bit, either doing a round robin grouping thing, which would require so much more admin, or do byes/extra rounds for the extraneous riders via random drawings or based on renown or something…

Spoiler: Faris Abdul of Kalla (hector13) (click to show/hide)

Personal name: Abdul ibn Murshid
Homeland: Kalla

The nobles of Kalla are known more for their wealth than their martial ability, but this allows them to hire veteran mercenaries to teach them the intricacies of horsemanship. This occasionally leads to some overconfidence among their elite…

Balance: 3
Build: 0
Eye: 3
Muscle: 0
Renown: 0
Wealth: 1

Equipment
Lance: Spruce, Iron-Tip, 7 endurance, +1 balance, +2 muscle, 150 + 50 = 200 ducats
Armor: Gambeson, 20 ducats
Steed: Champion, +4 vs. Unseating Roll, +2 balance, 750 ducats

Total: 970 ducats

Edits to my character, ‘cause I made a small error.

[TheRedwolf]

Also fucking Zyrtec the almighty, does he ride upon a steed named Benedryl?

[Devastator]

Dang, missed out.

Or maybe not, if we get enough participants.

Spoiler: Sir Leosfatd the Improverished of Hekofire (click to show/hide)

Balance: 2
Build: 1
Eye: 1
Muscle: 3
Renown: 0
Wealth: 0

Lance: Iron tipped Teak. (170 ducats)  Spare Stone-tipped Wurian Pine (65 ducats)

Armor: Chainmail (300 ducats)

[Horizon]

We already have eight.

[a1s]

We could have 16. It's kinda hard to say if that is achievable, seeing as how it took us a week to get the first 8, but we're already half way there with 12 (if TheRedwolf fleshes out his character idea based off prescription medication)

[hector13]

RedWolf was exclaiming over the name of the magic vendor. Their champion is the post before mine.

There are ways to accommodate the extra characters, the easiest perhaps being “qualifying” rounds before the main tournament, or rotating characters, round robins etc.

Equally so Haspen could just ignore the excess characters *shrug* there’s no harm in posting more than necessary, except on Haspen’s time and effort.

[Horizon]

Ah I see

[Quarque]

Someone should do a protection build.
Protection is an all or nothing stat, a few points do nothing but with 3 build stat, ironheart horse and scalemail no one can ever unseat you so you don't need to care about balance. Add a steel tipped greenheart lance, rest in muscle/eye, lion stance all the way.

[hector13]

The problem being you need to hit the person to unseat them, meanwhile you’re getting hit every round and losing on points if you don’t.

[Quarque]

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

the d10 attack roll vs d6 defense, lion stance and 5 bouts would give you > 50% odds to hit and unseat, even against Balance builds.

Anyway let's talk about exciting things like maidens and where's my beer.

I will take these ideas into consideration, especially that I only had time now to really sit down to this game
