I am running a gladiator game where 90% of the players are enslaved to fight masters in a city with 5 wards. The other 10% are mercenaries that come to the city to fight in tournaments.
Each tournament is 5 rounds with the top 3 from each tournament moving on to the main tournament.
each ward is controlled by a fight master and each ward holds a feeder tournament to the main tournament held in the center of town.
I have run a few tournaments already and these are some of the scenarios I have put the players through:
Jousting
1-on-1 forest encounter
Ranged battle w/repeating crossbow(s) (group scenario)
Timed game (round count) to search through 2 buildings to find weapons and items, use weapons + items together to complete game (was crafting burning arrows to hit targets at various range increments)
Guard the castle(capture the flag) - Defend a building from invading warriors that come in waves of various #s, races and difficulty. In this game there were also booby-traps buried across the battleground that had to be aware (or unaware) of.
If you have other scenario ideas or assistance with building a fun and challenging tournament please share.
Thank you.
