Event Description

Rules for this event are still being finalized.

Cascadia is a puzzly tile-laying and token-drafting game featuring the habitats and wildlife of the Pacific Northwest.

SETUP

Remove the Hawk Network “C” card. Then randomly draw one card from each type of Wildlife. Each player chooses a random starting tile.

PRELIMINARY ROUNDS

Three one-hour heats will be played.  Preference will be for 4-player games but we will use 3-player games as necessary.  Standard rules as in the box and no expansions or promos will be used.

Please bring your copy of the game.

ELIMINATION ROUNDS
If there are at least 32 total players:

The Top 16 players advance to the semi-finals, as determined by the standard Euro Quest tiebreakers. These players will play four 4-player games, the winner of each advancing to the finals.

If there are less than 32 total players:
With 4 or fewer unique winners, we will skip directly to a final with those winners.  If necessary, the next top ranked player(s) without a win will advance to fill the table to 4.

With more than 4 unique winners, we will advance either 8 or 12 (depending on the number of unique winners) to a semi-final.  The next top ranked players without a win will be included to fill out the tables.  Advancement of non-winners in the semifinal will be determined by placement in the semifinal game and then highest percentage of the semifinal winner’s score.  The top 4 players from the semi-final will advance to the final table.

TIEBREAKERS

The following tie breakers will be used in all rounds.

1. Most Nature tokens
2. Most bonus points for largest habitat types
3. Highest points earned from a single wildlife type
4. Reverse turn order from starting player
