Just in case anyone bought Forgebane a while back and has the necron half lying around, I'm in the market.

Never played Bolt Action, but I loved Flames of War at one time.  Out of curiosity, is there a Finnish army option in Bolt Action?

if you have not found someone already this interests me good sir.

It’s a deal!

I have no need for the chaos half and would like a straight trade for someone’s unwanted marine half.

Having attended last year, I can vouch that this is a fantastic event, and worth your time and travel.  As soon as Aaron announced it, I bought my tickets.

I'm sorry you are upset.  First, I can accommodate you.  Guardian has agreed to go to 16 tables, so there will be a spot for you.

I do want to point out however, that I have been repeatedly clear about the need to buy a ticket.  I have posted that here, in facebook groups, etc.  There were only four people who RSVP'ed via the system.  I sent an email from splashthat to all four people on February 19th  That email said only one thing, and I quote:

Reminder:  No spot is held until a ticket is purchased via Best Coast Pairings at:  https://www.bestcoastpairings.com/eventlanding/44yvq7bf

I just checked Splashthat, and you are the only person who has not opened that email.  

Nevertheless, as I indicated earlier, there will be a spot for you.  So no need to panic.

What's a hobbyist event without some great prizes?!  Well, Annihilation: The Weekender has that covered!  We have these lovely awards for Best Battle Points, Best Paint, Best Sportsmanship, and the Oscar gold statue goes to...Best Overall!

Four great prizes, a casual friendly mission pack that values painting and sportsmanship, fun achievement bingo games, a pizza lunch provided, what's not to like?!  If you've ever been hesitant about a 40k "tournament", this is the one for you.  So come roll dice.  We only have seven spots remaining, so reserve now at Best Coast Pairings:  https://www.bestcoastpairings.com/eventlanding/44yvq7bf

Player packet can be found here:

I want to remind everyone to buy your ticket in advance through Best Coast Pairings.  There are limited spots, and I do not have the space to expand.  So please don't make a big trip without having first bought your ticket.  Here's the link:

I just want to post this in the 40k forum, just in case people missed it in the tournament section.  Coming up in March is Annihilation: The Weekender.  This is a two day tournament at Guardian Games.  Now, while it does give ITC points for those interested in that type of thing, it's also heavily geared towards more causal players.  First, we're using random draws from an open war deck to determine map/mission/twist.  That randomness alone makes it pretty casual.  In addition, I will be adding 40k Achievement Bingo!  Everyone will get a card, and when they get a bingo, they earn a command point. The major prizes go to best overall (battle points and best painted) and best painted, with best general bringing up the pack.  So, in short, if you've been hesitant to jump into a "tournament" this is exactly the type of event to ease you into it.  If you're familiar with the tournament scene, this is exactly the event to break up the monotony of the endless ITC mission repetition.

And finally, the proceeds of this event (minus event costs) go to the Oregon Food Bank.  So, you get to geek out and help those in need.  Plus, your entry fee includes a pizza lunch on Saturday.

Anyway, hope to see folks there.

You need a spirit seer, or more, for guided wraith sight.  A wave serpent transport would be useful.  And finally, a hemlock.

I’m in the final stretches of LVO prep.  To save some work, and because I like them, I’m bringing Dark Angels again this year - albeit with many new units.  Here is my list.    It’s competative-ish, just where I want to be.  I’ll post pics over the next couple weeks.

Blaagh! So excited!

Boy I wish DE still had night vision. How they stumble through the chasms and spikes of the Dark City in this edition, I'll never know. 

Really like the power level change for the kill points! I'll still bleed easy though...

Any sort of list submition or just bring 5 copies on the day? 

Bring copies of your list.  No submission early.  DO NOT rely only on Battlescribe or other such programs (they are full of errors currently).  Verify your points the old fashioned way.

Rules for this event are now posted in the original post on the first page.

I bought an event for the kill team event, do I need to swap it to this or can I be lazy?

Kill Team and this event will not overlap.  You can play both!

We're going 1500.  I'm going to err on the side of quick easy games

I want to test things first.  Expect somewhere between 1500-2000.   

As far as my bio:

I'm a long time 40k player, and many-time OFCC attendee, Ordo senator, and this year Game Czar.  In the story this team is telling, my AdMech did some digging on a world they should not have been digging on - awakening Tom's Necron's in the process.  Now the Deathwatch and Eldar have appeared to try and stem the tide, but it may be too late.  I'm a little nervous about this army since it has so many little fiddly rules in 7th edition.  I plan to largely ignore most of those and drink.
