Justicar Retribution VIII Helsinki, Finland (Sep 2nd)

Thanks to everyone for attending on such a short notice as well as making it even smoother tournament than normally (=supasmooth).


Some last minute pics from the 3rd round.

Clockwise from lower left: Heikki, Heikki, Aeksi, Matias. And absent Lönkka's playarea in the foreground.



From lower right: Mikko, Kari, Hannu, Jyri and Lauri.



Somewhat closer look at the previous table from Kari's point of view.

Some pics from the quick finals (all in all it took some 81 minutes or so IIRC).


Finals table. Clockwise from lower right:
Aleksi (Edward Vignes & co), Kari (Samedi), Jyri (Spell of Life), Heikki (Obf/Dom weenie all-stars) and Matias (Unnamed Maleficia).



Here's the table from Matias' POW. The prospects for the future look rather frim for him...



... so I started taking pics from each players' play area after their turn was completed.

Let's start with Jyri still in progress of doing shady mummy rituals.



Here's Heikki's Dom/Obf weenie horde.



Game over for Matias' lonely Baali.



Aleksi's Vignes deck with Eddy himself absent.



Kari's Baron and his pals.

Endgame with 5x inner circle Mummies handing out good ol' fashioned violence to left and right. With the help from Entranced Ossian (from Aleksi).



Here's a closer look of the same. Jyri has expanded his playarea to right with Ossian and the big mummies. Please notice that the counters of the mummies represent the damage inflicted on them as the players didn't feel like piling up 55 counters on them when they came out...




So Matias was quickly ran over by Heikki's runaway dominate bleeders. It took slightly longer for Kari to get the dose of the same from Aleksi and then Jyri's Mummies from Spell of Life smacking the crappola out of the more or less defenceless dominaters on both sides, although first mainly concentrating on Heikki's weenies since Aleksi promised not to hurt him if Jyri went forward (probably hoping to draw oust cards meanwhile).
