Just as a clarification, the requirements of the list are "up to" and do not require to have a battle engine or a solo, etc.

What does 'the kill of artifice will grant control points' mean?

In each game, you will play for assassination and control points with the killbox artifice from SR2013. First player to assassinate the other caster or have 4 control points wins. There are no objectives or flags to score, the killbox artifice will grant control points. Record the outcome of the battle on your Event Record Sheet.

Killbox artifice in SR2013 does not kill or maim your warcaster, it grants 2 control points. This is an interpretation of the SR2013 rules to fit them into a highlander format.

Simply put: If you are out of the killbox (within 14 inches of the board edges) for two player "turns" you lose.

If I play a caster that has an automatic attachment (thinking 3mo and Finch) does that attachment count against the 1 solo limit if the card calls the attachment a solo?

Hey quick question,

Convg. of Cryss has not released a solo or unit yet, so how would I meet the needs of the event? Also, There is very limited models for them, how do I get around the limit of one of that type?

since the model isn't released you can't use it due to steamroller rules

Right, so we have only jacks. So no conv. of cryss then? The format said solos and such are a must.

The event posting is sort of unpolished. You can have UP TO 1 of each category listed. Nothing is stopping someone fom playing with a whole bunch of jacks and nothing else, provided none are repeated.

Using one of each jack that is out is exactly 34/35 if I remember right

I need some polar bear models to pull my gun carriage. Any recommendations?

What about these ... might need to green stuff to remove the riders but it could work and I think that D could order them:
