Warrior Ancient and Medieval Rules

[joncleaves]

Hi gang

Some questions for you:

1. We want to reward players who recruit new guys. Our definition of
recruiting includes as a minimum the acquisition of a Warrior rulebook of
course Issues are: what would be a reward you'd like that is in our
means to give? And more the issue, how would a guy 'prove' he recruited
another so we don't have ghost recruits getting guys undeserved freebies or
discounts?

2. If we start a 'fifth horseman' program to recognize those who run events
in our games, we will have a way to sanction local tournaments. With that
kind of QC, a national (or international) ranking system is possible. Is it
desireable?

Ok, let me know your thoughts. Use this subject line and clip extraneous
stuff for me - thanks.

Jon

Rewards? Something that promotes Warrior as well. How about Free stuff like
Warrior T-shirts or somthing.

I always felt you should start a program specificaly for dedicated Warrior
players to recruit and promote (by running Warrior events). These
individuals would be helped out in there efforts by you providing
sanctioning of events, T-shirts, promo flyers, whatever would help them in
'promoting' the Warrior 'hobby'. I am not sure players would need (or even
want) some kind of 'reward' for recruiting per se. Helping such players out
in promoting the game would be a great reward in itself.

Maybe these dedicated players could send in a progress reort every 1-3
months or somthing, somthing maybe that is required in order to keep in the
recruiting program.

I'll think about this one a bit more.

I think this would be GREAT. I am totaly behind you on this one. I know I
can help in running sanctioned events in my area.

Fifth Horsemen will get shirts. I'm looking at something different as a
recruiting reward.
And the bigger issue is 'proveability'.
And I am looking to see about thoughts on a ranking system.

Other than that, you answered all my questions...lol

A noble intention- the sorts of rewards that would interest me (short
of the airfare to come to the US and play against some of you guys)
would be discounted/free list books as they are released- coupons for
figures- that sort of thing.
I see a few problems in working out who has actually done the
recruiting, and when someone is "recruited", but if you can sort that
out it sounds good.

Yes an International ranking system is a good thing- as is the ability
to sanction local tournaments. We had a "National" ranking system
operating on TOG in Oz for many years and, over time, it provided a
useful and interesting dimension to our gaming.
