My teen sons and i get a game in every once in a while; when not playing Flames of War or other games and we are in the Portland area. There is the upcoming GameStorm convention in March. Maybe we could set up a game for then and see if others play as well.

I updated the first post with the results. We had some good battles for the early war tournament. Thanks to all who were able to make it. The next tournament will be at the Enfilade convention in Olymipa on May 23rd. @all Remember to look for a red arty template when you go through your things. Hopefully we can find the missing one.

@barca - got it.

@dvang - updated with list approved status. @Bolo - scratched off list. bummer.

LotR citadel guard either bow or spear. And fountain court guard.

I have too many to list individually but if there is something specific you are looking for, There is a good chance I might have it. This includes FoW ww2 and vietnam lines.

I'm working on a small trade with a buddy and he wants gw LotR Gonder or warhammer Beastmen (anything but Ungors really) in return. But I don't have either. If you have either of these and are looking to sell them or want to trade me for NIB Flames of War lmk. Looking to spend ~$60. Unpainted, NIB, or on sprue preferred. If painted I'll have to check.

@dvang: I asked the other studio artists (CGR Painters) , I've got you covered for the 6 Italian 47/32s.

@dvang: I have three from the large Itialian box set but they are still new in shrinkwrap. If no one comes up with some maybe I can open it and delve into a new country power. I'm pretty sure that Grant used to have some, maybe he or John can be checked on?

@barca - i updated first post. SteveM.

Interesting. On 2/21, one could play in the GG early war tournament and then head over to Dice Age by 7ish and play another game if they wanted.

@Lord Hanuar bummer you can't attend; I've added myself to fill in for the Empire of Japan and carry the flag.

@barca - I saw your email on the yahoo group. also updated the first post with your list info. For those that are not aware, this is the yahoo group: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/FoW_Northwest/info

Just noticed this fb post. Too bad it is scheduled the same day as the Early War tourney in Portland. ------ Haven Gaming, Salem OR Flames of War Players, we will be hosting our Spring Offensive tournament February 21st, the tournament will be a 1,900pt late war event with all PDFs. Buy-in will be a $20 purchase.

Scratch that. Having to work late tonight.

@apophis93 updated first post

with easyarmy, the only book I didn't have was the Rising Sun one...

very nice.

We have our first list for the tourney sent in and verified. Thanks LordGrumpus. I updated the first post to reflect that I think Axis and Allie side people had stated or not stated.

Thanks to all that made it out to play in the tournament and LordGrumpus for providing terrain for two tables; For those that helped set up/tear down tables, and those that traveled some distance to play. I updated the first post with results. Overall it was a good tournament and yes, there were a lot of King Tigers. The paint judging is getting tougher too with two armies that stood out. Souldier3 was a close third but didn't do a complete base paint on some infantry but otherwise his Germans also looked very good.

@Bolo - done.

Remember to email me your list so it can be verified prior to the tournament to make it easier for me and you. I added a column to the first post to show that it is verified. Three are have been approved so far. pdxwar@gmail.com
