Welcome to the N7S Anniversary Challenge

​

This year on August 20th 2021 is the sixth Anniversary of the founding of the N7 Squad and we wanted to do something a little special that could be used each year on the anniversary date to celebrate that. This is a celebration of both the N7Squad and the Mass Effect Series we love so much, enjoy :)

As a celebration of the Mass Effect series these four challenges try to span Mass Effect 1 through to Mass Effect 3 incorporating all the enemies encountered in each.

This challenge is now closed

It will reopen on Friday 20.Aug.2021. at 00:00 CDT and run till Tuesday 24.Aug.2021. at 00:00 CDT

All completed submissions to us in that time period will be rewarded with the Special N7 Squad Anniversary tag in our Discord Server.

As always, your challenge progress can be sent to us via Discord in the #n7s-challenges text channel. For this specific challenge, please send your videos progress within the time period marked above.
