Welcome to the '97 Pack

Those who have seen a Paddington Bears' Pack before will notice that we now call them PBP scenarios to differentiate them from that other module with the PB initials. Our scenarios naturally feature the ABS (Aussie Bidding System) to allow players a range of options when bidding for the side of their choice. The ABS can also function as a balance mechanism if a scenario is believed to favour one side.

Certain PBP scenarios feature a Draw result because failure to meet some victory conditions should not always make you an outright loser. In tournaments, a draw could either be scored as half a Win (because it is not a loss for either player) or be shown as a third type of result, with all players having a three part Win/Draw/Loss score. Alternatively, players or tournament directors can always choose to omit the draw provision (and use the standard [A26.4] arrangement - Attacker loses if they don't win).

Other PBP scenarios have two levels of victory and/or defeat, so that a truly decisive result can be rated as such. For points based tournaments, a Decisive Win should be worth 15-20% more than a normal win. For all other purposes, a Win is a win and a Loss is a loss.
