I will be there but likely not until after noon as I have prior plans that morning.

The Scenario for week 2 league games shall be Scenario 3: Key Positions to be played at 600 points and on a 3-4'x4' table. Please use d2+1 objectives rather than d3+2.

3pm. I'd offer to head down and make sure you've got a game setup, but I woke up on the uphill side of the crap my wife is getting over and don't want to spread it thru the club.

Myself, Burk, and Scotthartman were there, I played Burk and then Scott, ties in both games. I'd brought no anti-vehicle assuming they were unlikely at 500 points; Burk had a half-track, Scott a half-track and an armored car... Had hoped for more players on the first night, but off to a start all the same.

The Mission for Week 1 shall be Scenario 2: Meeting Engagement (p.135 of the 2nd edition rule book) at 500 points per side; this should be played on a 3x3' space at minimum, but no larger than 4x4'. Please report your game using the online form from this link.

7pm should work well for me, maybe a little later if needed. That good for you?

@savion47 when you want to kill humans? Obviously Tuesday is not good for me, but I'm free after work most other weekdays, generally available on weekends.

Either way is fine, just need to get a general heads up for player count to make sure we're covered

We allowing stadium enhancements in this league? I've got extra gold to burn up, not sure I want to add TV with another player.

@jollyork I think I play @savion47 after you do so hook him up with "the business" if you can...

Ahh crap, I meant to tag @Maxwell Christian, but your name was stuck in my mind from the BB2 thread I was looking for his handle in at the time. My bad!

@Ish, @Mack, @Gordianus, @AgentP, @Spielmannsfluch You guys expressed interest previously (other thread or conversation), anyone else interested?

GG @SigurdBC, sorry I can't chat much in game playing with a steam controller, or at least not at a pace that remains relevant to the actions in the game by the time I post them. That not-blitz was a moment of panic and then confusion when I realized you hadn't blitzed, but I totally get being caught up in the moment and forgetting the blitz action, especially in that interface where it is a separate series of actions. Should have been a tie in the end. Good luck with the rest of your season!

The league rules post is up. Please reply in that thread if you intend to play along with the faction you intend to play in the league beginning in Jan.

Ordo Fanaticus is hosting an escalation league for Bolt Action. New players are encouraged and welcome. Participants will play one game per week at a specified points level and a designated rulebook scenario posted to this thread before the week starts. If both players agree they may play a different rulebook scenario. Schedule by week-of date and points level: Jan 5-Jan 11: 500 points Jan 12-Jan 18: 600 points Jan 19-Jan 25: 700 points Jan 26-Feb 1: 800 points Feb 2-Feb 8: 900 points Feb 9-Feb 15: 1000 points Feb 16-Feb 22: 1000 points Games are not required to be played at the Ordo clubhouse, nor are they required to be played on Tuesday nights. It is suggested that players arrange a game beforehand via the game-night thread or in this thread. Players may arrange to play their weekly league game at another venue or day/night. One player shall report the game via a form to be found HERE each week. Players should declare their preferred faction/nation prior to the start of the league for general reference, but may change platoon lists from week-to-week as they please. Eg. A British Army player could field a Reinforced Platoon from Armies of Great Britain one week and then field a different British Army platoon from another campaign book if desired in another week. Whenever possible, players should also declare their orders dice color to avoid confusion when randomly drawing order dice from a bag to determining activation order during the game. Players are encouraged to play as many different opponents as they can over the course of the league, ideally arranging games in advance via the forums or any other resource they’re comfortable with. There is no restrictions on platoon/theater selector, but all armies should only be built from a single platoon list. Generic Reinforced Platoons from the respective army books are encouraged, but not required. Multiple platoons are not allowed unless a player is unable to field the game points level in a single platoon from their army collection. This is intended to encourage thematic game-play and avoid the complications of multiple tanks or similar issues seen in competitive lists. Units shall be selected from a single source as listed from their army or campaign book where the platoon being used is defined. Universally available units are allowed per their rules which must be made available to all opponents if choosing to use any. Tank platoons are not allowed. Experimental units or Named characters are not allowed. Players are encouraged to avoid any ‘beardy’ or WAAC lists (Japan bamboo spear hordes, multiple flamethrowers, etc.); the league is intended to be fun and introductory for both new and experienced players. If you’re bringing what you believe to be a strong list, please let your opponent know well in advance if possible to let them try and plan accordingly. League points scoring: WIn: 2 points Draw: 1 points Loss 0 points Fully painted and based (3 colors minimum): 1 point 1 new unit type (transport, artillery, etc.) not previously used in the league: 1 point New opponent not played previously in the league: 1 point Errata and rules adjustments: Transports towing artillery or other weaponry shall only have the capacity occupied by the crew count consumed; additional units may still embark as per the rules into remaining passenger capacity. PLEASE REPLY BELOW IF YOU ARE PLAYING AND THE FACTION YOU INTEND TO PLAY. Participants and Faction: Bosco, Australians Americans Scotthartman, Germans Burk, Germans Brother Glacius, Germans Acer circinatum, Bulgarians Aaron Nance, Americans Gordianus, British Mack (maybe), Germans Max, Americans Collin, Norwegians McKenzie, Americans Alex, Japanese

The math checks out.

I think I can make that work next Saturday, plan for 10am?

@SigurdBC what's you availability looking like? I'm free this afternoon/evening and after 6:30pm weekdays, except Tuesdays.

I'm out, thank you though. Between Xmas, my son's birthday (28th), new year's, and plans to get armies/terrain ready for the upcoming BA league I'm going to be buried otherwise I'd be down.

If you've got a team in ordobowl.com I can play a friendly with an existing team if you're interested. Sounds like I'm booked otherwise for tonight in another game at this point, sorry.

@michaels I'm in Seattle until late tonight, plans most of Sunday. Saturday might work or after 6:30 on a weeknight. How's it look from your end?
