Phew I’ve caught up on sleep and back wrapping  up Infernal Zoo 10! Thank you to all the amazing participants.  It was an epic display of gaming, artistry, and sportsmanship all around!    I added the hobby master this year and people hobbied so hard! Such an inspiration.   A compilation of the background stories can be found here:
https://www.infernalzoo.com/uploads/1/3/0/5/13057325/2022-_iz_stories.pdf
The first ever  hobby master award  (Extra Weight on Hobby Stuff) goes to Ben Kerr!  And his Dwarven Holds.  And Josh Stuart and his dread elves  shook off adversity (and hard fought draw verse Ben) to take his Third Infernal Zoo War Master championship (Extra Weight on Battle Points), rounded out with Will Stanly (HBE) for Best Paint, Henry Greip for Players Choice (Asklanders) and Kenyon Duncan (SA) for Best Sports.
Full Awards Here:

2022 Zoomus Eve!

10/7/2022

0 Comments

 
Last Update, see you tomorrow or tonight at Sohpia’s Thai Bistro (The bar on the street), Hit me up at (530) 400-5313 if your lost.


A few updates and Notes. 
We are not using the SA Hotfix (too late!).  I do have a tournament ruling that resurrecting destroyed guest units is not allowed, though healing wound pools of existing units is.
This years Swag is:
·        2 Resin Zoo Corner Markers
·        2 Plastic 9th age Corner Markers
·        Zoo Dice Cup or Zoo Hill Stepper (pick one)

The Corner markers come with some putty so they don’t move (great for OBJ’s as well).   I have found that marking corners before moving is courteous, resolves so many conflicts, and actually really speeds play with all the picking up and shuffling during the “thinking Phase”.  I have more for sale 😊.


Everyone’s Giant Build has been uploaded here:
https://www.infernalzoo.com/uploads/1/3/0/5/13057325/2022-_iz_giants.pdf
 I have Haikus from:
James Wroot, Aaron Chaum, Derek Wiswell, Henry Greip, Joel Boccio, Darryl Grigsby
 Please resend if your not listed (email!, Haiku in header), and If sending on in, get them to me by Midnight tonight. 

Amazing Turnout on the Hobby Hero Stories, They will get  formated and posted a bit after the event.
But if your looking for some enroute inspirational reading they can be found here:

A  bonus poem from Henry to Y’all:
It was the day before Zoomas
And all through Nor Cal
Every creature was stirring
Even Will of the Joust
The tables were laden with terrain with great care
In hopes that on time players would be there
But from table 4 there rose such a clatter
Alex left his ringers game to see what was the matter
And what to his TO eyes did appear?
But a longship raid and two giants so dear
 
-        Henry Greip


Cheers,
Alex
