Default TFT: Battle - Playtesters Sought

I have been developing an expansion for TFT called Battle which is a set of rules for conducting large-scale battles within the game. Steve is interested in possibly adding it to TFT and we need to playtest the system to see if it's workable (and fun).

If you are interested in playtesting the game and have TFT players to play it with, please contact me here via Private Message. I'll need the following info in order to get you set up as a playtester:

1) Your real name
2) A valid email address (for sending you the game)
3) Your Discord handle (to add you to the private playtesters channel)

If you don't have a Discord account and/or aren't a member of the TFT Discord server, it's highly recommended that you join. This will be the place for discussing Battle with me and the other testers. For obvious reasons details about it won't be discussed here on the forums while it is still in the development stage. You don't have to join Discord and can email me your feedback directly, but you'll miss out on the group discussion.

Depending on the number of responses I may need to limit the size of the testing pool, in which case I'll be preferring testers who have an established presence here on the forum.

Thanks for your interest!

When providing your Discord handle, don't forget to include the four-digit Discord Hash suffix. Discord handle is in this format: @Name#9999, with 9999 being an example of the four-digit suffix auto-assigned by Discord. Mine is 7778.

New to this forum. How do I send you a pm? The pm link you put in doesn’t work.

Just a quick note about how to send PMs:

Click the user's name in the post. That should give you a dropdown menu. One of the choices there is "Send a private message to Shadekeep" (or whoever). That's the one you want.

Thanks!

For new users it may not appear until you've been on the forums for a while or have a certain number of posts. Some forums do this to restrict people from creating spam accounts or the like.

Oh, and just to be clear up front, playtesting is totally unpaid and uncompensated. Though I will do my darnedest to make sure playtesters are acknowledged in the game if it get published.

New users to these forums have restricted permissions to foil profile/PM spammers. These restrictions are automatically lifted after you reach a threshold level which makes us pretty sure you're a real user, not a spammer.

Edited to add: This is a good reason not to rely solely on PMs for this sort of thing, BTW. Shadekeep, do you have an alternate contact method for the new posters?

Sounds great! I'll definitely write to you with the info you need for my participation.

Will your 'game within a game' be resolved on a hex map, like Melee?

Will it occur at the same or larger scale (i.e., compared to Melee)?
