I think I have that one - but having just moved - it's buried in a box somewhere.


Do you have a link?


Open to suggestions

After neglecting this for a few years, I'm gonna trust TJ 100% and add these to the legal tile list.

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.

Also - since it's such a minor event now (errr - even moreso) - we will allow any tile that has been released since 2015 and fits the criteria, upon judge AND participant consensus approval. In other words, if it's not specifically abusive - it should be fine.

Tile list for
Night Life (Terrain Card Set #7 from Maps of Mastery)

Dance Floor (LEGAL)
Long Bar (LEGAL) / Casino Security (ILLEGAL)
Corner Booths (LEGAL) / Corner Card Tables (LEGAL)
Wall Booths (LEGAL) / Game Tables (LEGAL)
Control Booth & Restrooms (ILLEGAL) / Corner Tables (LEGAL)
Guest Rooms (ILLEGAL) / Private Rooms (ILLEGAL)
Bar (LEGAL) / Stage (LEGAL)
Restrooms (ILLEGAL) / Roulette Tables (LEGAL)
Pole Dancing Tables (LEGAL) / Main Entrance (LEGAL)
Billiard Tables (LEGAL) / Card Tables (LEGAL)
Tables (LEGAL) / Long Tables (LEGAL)
Pole Dancing Stage (LEGAL) / Pool (LEGAL)
Sauna & Changing Rooms (ILLEGAL) / Dressing Rooms (ILLEGAL)
Empty Floor (LEGAL)

Most of the legal tiles here are pretty boring - big open space with some low objects scattered about. Maybe with a single door/wall to separate from the opposing tile. The one slightly interesting tile:

Game Tables has a couple 2-square walls that could provide a hiding-corner (but no doors).
