The #chesney Official Tournament 2023 succeeded perfectly❤️
Yesterday, 28 participants joined this competition for an original Hong Kong board game. There were player representatives from four shops. The atmosphere was lively during the scoring rounds, with players constantly shouting at each other. Some matches were quickly decided with explosive plays that secured many points in one go, while some devolved into drawn-out battles ending at the last second with all factions defeated. Some players play well through innate talents (like maxing out their luck points), easily steal successes, and utilize Belief Cards, Elixirs, and more.
As the finals began, the atmosphere in the shop turned serious. Even spectators held their breaths, afraid of impacting the in-game situation with every breath. Player seating and role selection in the finals had already become a battle of psychology and strategy. The concerns of top and bottom seated players, and calculating which role would be most advantageous after the 15 character cards were revealed publicly - whether to pick a role to directly influence the game, or to target and balance other players.
The official battles began. Many thought the 1-hour time limit per match would not be enough, but the professional players fully demonstrated how effective each of their moves were in shifting situations. When spectators watched their every ponder over cards and gauging of the field, thinking how much time had passed when it was only 30 minutes passed, it was like time flowed differently for these players. The storekeeper, acting as referee, noted that even eliminated players watching with interest commented they never realized the game could reach such a level. Surviving with many psychological tactics and persuasions, Pak Lau finally claimed the championship of the first Chesney Tournament with a score of 13.83 points and 0.2 points margin over the second place.
Hosting a competition is - gathering lovers of this game onto a big stage to interact and bond together. Hoping the next one is coming…
#席絲琳 系列續作將開始進行構思，
盼能夠在明年內完成❤️
遊戲很大機會朝著一款獨立遊戲方向創作，但延續主角的旅程！是幻想還是確實的政治陰謀，在被追趕與壓迫下，一行人開始了…
#chesneyboardgame
We have begun conceptualizing the next chapter of the #chesney series, hoping to complete it within next year❤️
The board game is highly likely to be created as a standalone from the original but continues the journey of the story.
What new mysteries will they uncover - illusions or insidious political schemes - as the team finds themselves pursued and oppressed…

Q&A Section (Chesney)
One frequently asked question among players is whether it is possible to play multiple Yellow Action Cards in a turn. The offical answer is YES.
Here are the examples: You can play 2 Belief card before you roll the dice, or you can play both Struggle and Elixir card at the same moment (when you have 1 HP only and take damage from a player).
問答環節 （席絲琳）
玩家經常問到的一個問題是是否可以同時打出多張黃色行動卡。 我們的答案是可以。
以下是範例：你可以在擲骰子之前打出 2 張信念卡，或者你可以同時打出奮戰卡和靈藥卡（當你只有 1 生命值並受到玩家傷害時）。
