  2. So, it's been a while since I've participated in a draft tournament, and have yet to take part in one for Radiant Dawn, and after talking to progamer for a bit I decided to try to get one started here. For people who have never played a draft tournament before, the premise is for participants to draft a team from all the playable characters in the game in turn (some units are available to everyone), and then play through the game using only those units to try and get the lowest total turn count that you can. Whoever has the lowest turn count after the end of the game wins. Drafting vets, I know some are skeptical about RD drafts since they typically have a low percentage play to completion. I'm going to propose a slightly different, more lenient set of draft rules so that the restrictions are not so harsh as to discourage players, in an attempt to have more people finish the run. That said, the rules: Drafting: 1. This draft is for 7 players. 2. Ike, Micaiah, Sothe, Elincia, Geoffrey, the Herons, are free for all to use. 3. The drafting order is snake ladder (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,1,2,ect). 4. The game will be played on Normal Mode, without PoR transfers. 5.Haar is not allowed Rules: 1. Undrafted units can: -Move -Meatshield (take hits, block pitfalls/ledges, draw ballista fire, etc.) -Rescue/Give/Take/Drop/Shove/etc. other undrafted units -Hold/Trade items/weapons/skills to any unit -Use healing items/stat boosters on themselves -Recruit units -Find hidden items -Be Shoved/Smited/Rescued/etc. by drafted units 2. Undrafted units cannot do anything not listed above, including but not limited to: -Attack or counterattack -Rescue/Shove/etc. drafted units or enemies -Open chests/doors by any means -Steal -Visit -Light torches -Escape (for Bonus EXP - they may Arrive to complete chapter objectives i.e.. Laura in 1-2) -Support drafted units -Give skill bonuses (i.e. Pool/Tide) 3. Allied and Other units may do as they please without penalty. 4. Restarting or reloading a previous save for any reason is highly frowned upon. Restarting exceptions can be made (at the drafter's discretion) for Ike unexpectedly dying or the like, but please don't abuse the system (such as gaining a favourable level-up, abusing a low hit chance, or suiciding Ike after another unit dies - if a unit dies then you accept the loss). We're heavily reliant on the honour system here. 5. Post updates of your playthrough on the board. Penalties: 1. A 4 turn penalty is incurred, per unit per chapter, when an undrafted unit is used for anything they are not allowed to be used for, referring to the Rules section (1-6 counts as 2 chapters, and 4-E counts as 5 chapters). Exceptions: 1. One of Edward or Nolan is free for each of 1-P and 1-1. 2 The Blak Kight is a free Unit in 1-9 3. One of Nephenee or Brom is free for 2-1. 4. One undrafted, non-Lucia unit is free for 2-2. 5. One undrafted, 7 move unit is free for 3-1. 6. One undrafted, 6 move unit is free for 3-3. Anyway, feel free to hit me up with any questions, or comments on the rules list, and if you're interested, sign up below! Once we hit 7 participants, the drafting order will be randomized by a RNG, so the order in which you sign up will not necessarily be the order of drafting. 1. BlackwingedHeron 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
