I feel like we have a good thing going with these multi-format events.
Not only do I think that it is good for our club, but it also gives those around us in other clubs a chance to battle their boats more often, and hang out with fellow R/C combat folks.
It also gives us the opportunity to pick up on some of the other technologies that the other clubs use.
At least from a Treaty stand point, I plan to schedule pretty much all of the Treaty events as multi-format, with the possible exception of our Nats event, so that we can do our rules stuff.
I will be contacting all of the other regional clubs, and trying to make sure that schedules do not conflict.
This year we shared the waters with ships from the BBS, and some of the big-gun clubs.
In 2008, I hope to include the L.E.A.G., the Battlestations group (96th scale version of big-gun), and I will also look into having an event with the MWC, and IRCWCC.
I will keep you all posted.
Mikey

If you have a battle site, then perhaps we can schedule a multi-format event with you.
That way you can battle to your rules, and after you are finished with your sortie, then we can battle a sortie to our rules.

If you can give us a weekend that will work, then we can start a list of who can attend.
What we have done in the past at our multi-format events is this.
Whichever format is ready first, gets to battle first.
After their sortie is done, the other format gets to battle a sortie.
Each format finishes their two sortie battle, and then we do it all over again.
Doing it this way makes things even more enjoyable as the two formats will at times be competeing to be the first on the water.
Now as far as whether we want to make it a two or three day event is for the most part up to you all.
Generally a three day event is best, as even though some will not be able to attend all three days, it does allow more battling for those that can.
Treaty will have at least one 20lb CO2 station. Perhaps two.
The starting point would probably be to have your club pick a weekend to host the event, and then we will see how many can attend.
We need to know how deep the battle site is, and how far to the hotels and such.

| | 07 Jul 2008 03:40 PM | | lets pick the weekend and then worry about the pond. I was figuring sometime in sept. any weekend. Monk do you want me to see if I can find a shallow pond down here on the cape? Oh and I picked up my boat hulls so I can start working on one of them. the kitchen became the workshop until I can pick up my work bench. Then the bedroom becomes the workshop.
