derek Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 So just bought it and it'll be the first time I get to play 40k or any event for that matter in the ofcc I've always seen people say it's a friendly event so don't bring the dick smash list just bring something fun. But this event is an itc event so are we going competitive or is it more air on the side of caution and don't be a jerk with only bringing 12 units and dropping all of them in 3 drops? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InfestedKerrigan Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 My experience has been a mixture. Lots of people saying friendly fluffy lists, and people bringing that, and then a selection of people who bring stompy, ridiculous lists in my subjective opinion. So I say go harder than soft, but not LVO hard. But it also depends on what you play, and how it is perceived. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it depends on what you are talking about. If you're talking about the Friday 1500 8th edition, hard is fine. If you're talking about the team event, you should have a soft list. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek Posted July 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 The 1500point tournament is what I'm playing in so just wanted to clarify I got a week to figure out the list so here's hoping I can do that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 The 1500 is pretty much anything goes. For the Team Event, Wheaton's Law should be followed strictly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretre Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 Make sure you review the post from AgentP for the 1500 event as he does change up the rules a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Trainer Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 Sat/Sun OFCC is about sportsmanship and fun. There are no prizes for winners, best painted, etc. Just a silly medal. However, getting favorite opponent pins earns you additional tickets for the prize raffle which is done. As to hard or soft, it's really about don't be a dick and facemelt someone while rubbing it in their face (no one likes that). It's in your opponents hands to judge you, thus this is what OFCC is about. Previously being a team event allowed captains to create better list matchups, but that's part of the design too. Every player is different, some are hardcore win at all cost folks. Others are painters and field what 'looks' cool. The final answer is, have fun (both you and your opponents). (Oh and edit to address above points, Friday's event I'm less familiar if it's focusing on competitive. However, the weekend event is not about soul crushing). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PumpkinHead Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 The Friday 8th ed event is all or nothing. I am bringing a friends baneblade to compliment my GSC. I mean, why not? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Munkie Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 My 1500 point list is kinda good, kinda not. I began painting my court of the Archon when I was planning on playing in the 7th Ed. tournament. Since I dumped so much time into painting them, I'm determined to bring them no matter what. Except you really should have an archon with them too. Archons are trash and courts are way too expensive, but oh well. The rest of it is good but not optimal since I'm trying to stick to a battalion and DE troops aren't amazing. But dark lances [big bad swear word] [big bad swear word] up, so that's good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skkipper Posted July 20, 2017 Report Share Posted July 20, 2017 pretty much since I have no team and they have gone weak on list rating, I am not going to OFCC this year. The team part was great, the rest was subpar like most of ordo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe in the ability to have a team of Super Heavies only, and have 5 great games on both sides of the table. 8th is gonna be great. We're gonna tear down the wall around your hearts. You know, next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
