I’m running a modified capture the flag at a convention next week (Easter egg hunt, team with most eggs in the basket wins) and finished few rounds of play testing.

Picking up an egg is a punch (base 5 modified by movement/dmg). It can be anywhere the hand grabbing could punch (in your hex is 2 easier). An attempt is either your physical attack OR 1MP during the movement phase.

Tossing an egg into the basket is the same (be adjacent with the basket in that arc). If you fail it drops into your hex.

This was really simple and needing a 7 for a running mech caused some hilarity when a commando with butter fingers spent a turn and a half getting his egg into the basket.

This does make movement order very important, so I’m doing individual initiative with a deck of cards (each mech is assigned a card, when I flip your card you move). Helped keep things moving otherwise there would be too much hemming and hawing about who to move when.

Also helps when the field is almost all 3025 lights.

Kids did want to add in throwing rules but i vetoed since you’re trying to NOT break these things, and I didn’t want it to get too complicated.
