Ok, I was talking to my Usual Suspects playtesting group about a crazy idea I had for the XCrawl tournament - and they liked it, so I thought I'd share instead of keeping it to myself...
The top two teams from Round 2 advance to the Round 3 finals... I know we didn't want to necessarily go to a Round 3, but bear with me...
Round 3 starts out with a very simple combat in a large room, that opens to a door with a long hallway. Opening the door at the end of the long hallway, you enter the Collisseum Grand Finale XCrawl room...
As you open the door, a party of 4 XCrawlers are opening a door on the opposite end of the room... The level is symmetrical, and the other final round team just passed their simple combat and entered the Collisseum, as well. So we pit the two teams from the finals against each other in a no-holds-barred XCrawl Brawl for the championship.
The two final judges would run their groups separately through the first "gimme" enounter, then we'd merge and duke out the final battle on the same table... The team that destroys the other team wins!
As an added benny, when this is released as the final edition module for distribution - the winning team is immortalized in the module as the team the players face in that final room within the module!!! How cool is that??
Whatcha' think?
Crazy... Crazy... CrAzY idea...
