Formats

Arena Format: Battle Realm

Arena Formats are designed as options for enhancing/altering the standard play experience in both Crisis Day Events and, if both players agree, standard one-off games of Crisis Protocol during a game night at their LGS, game club, home, etc. Arena Formats typically require each player to bring an expanded or alternate roster to the game compared to the standard roster rules for Crisis Protocol.

Party Format: Collector

Party Formats are designed for player groups of close friends or family interested in playing a format that requires a much greater effort of coordination and organization among the players. Thus, Party Formats are not for use in Crisis Day Events or other organized events where players from different communities come together to celebrate the fun and enjoyment of Crisis Protocol. Instead, these are formats designed for tight-knit groups to come together and have a fun day of Crisis Protocol gaming among their close friends.
