  1. Hello Ordo!

    As sad as this makes me, I will have to postpone this event till after the new year. I just didn’t have the head count that was needed to make the event what it should be size wise (only 2 people signed up).  
     

    I will look at dates after the holiday for the new year and make sure it’s something that will work for more people to come.  
     

    Thank you for understanding! Have a great holiday. 

  2. For those of you not on Facebook...

    So here are the basic details...

    * We will be using scenarios 1, 2, and 4 because they feel like something a Nids player would do well with.
    * This will be an ITC event so you will be earning points towards the LVO, again, because Geoff was so involved with Frontline and the ITC.
    * All ITC rules will be in place, please review them (I will be placing links in this event feed next.
    * With new supplements coming out already we will have a cut off date of December 7th. No new rules will be used after that date.

    As for the tournament it will be 2 rounds on Saturday and 1 round on Sunday for the first 24 people to sign up. We would love more to come and hang out and talk all things Geoff but I only have spots for 24 players. Please call Guardian Games to sign up!

    Lunch will be provided (Pizza from Costco) and choice of soda (Pepsi or Diet Pepsi) but feel free to grab something from the Critical Sip!!

    Winners after the tournament will be "Best General", "Best Painted", and a new "Geoff Robinson Award" (Best Xenos army) and each will get some cool prizes!

    Feel free to ask questions and I am so sorry this is so quick to go up but I just wanted to get something going for Geoff and the people in our area to remember such an amazing man, friend, and competitor.

    Thank you,
    Anthony (Von Hammer)

  4. Geoff was a friend to so many in our community and I know I’m not the only one who wants to help in some way or another. So let’s do just that, let’s get together and play what he loved, Warhammer 40,000. 

    We will be playing a 3 round ITC tournament at Guardian Games in Portland, OR (because we know iNcontrol would have wanted those points lol) and sharing our amazing stories of the man himself December 14th and 15th.

    Sign ups are $40 through Best Coast Pairings and 50% of the entry fees will be donated to Geoffs favorite charity, SoCal Bulldog Rescue. The rest will go towards an awesome pizza lunch and a couple prizes for winners. 

    We will have room for 24 players so sign up ASAP. We hope to see you there and can’t wait to hear the stories you have to share!!

    More information can be found on the Facebook event page Here

  6. I own the big box (all painted now), and 2 Reavers (1 is painted). I am excited to get a game in sometime this weekend and love the models. Warhounds will be incoming in October. Closest game store to me is Geeks & Games in Oregon City if anyone wants a game but I can travel 🙂

  7. Hey there Ordo! As the title says I have some 8th edition codices that I'm looking to unload. Here is what I have:

     

    Death Guard

    Index Imperium 1 & 2

    Index Xenos 1 & 2

    Index Chaos

    I am looking for $15 a codex and $10 for an Index. I'm not leaving the game but I don't have a use for the physical books anymore. Please PM me if you're interested and we can meet this weekend, I'm located in Oregon City. Thanks for looking!!

    Calling @Torg to the party. Pretty sure he has one of those Eldar "My Buddy and Me" Wraithtitans. 

    I would totally ask him but I’m looking for an imperial Titan such as a Reiver, Warhound, etc... I’m not expecting a Warlord because, well, I couldn’t bring myself to ask for that obviously... Overall aspect is maybe the person who owns it could be willing to play in the event I’m setting up (see Tournament page)

    let me get this straight... so because half or more of the armies out there are using the Indexes ... because GW hasn't gotten to doing all  the 8th ed codex versions yet... NO ONE should be allowed to use new codexes until EVERYONE has a new codex?  is that the logic?

     

    -d

    That’s the logic I’m seeing left and right but I don’t get it. As the TO where this happened, a couple weekends ago, it seemed that those “tournament players” haven’t actually played in a tournament since 5th or 6th Edition and weren’t familiar with tournament standards. When you go to an ITC event ANYWHERE they have a “legal Codex cutoff” and the only thing that changes is how long before the tournament, could be a week or a month before the tournament. 

    As for copies, I don’t care if you bring copies of a current, released, Codex but don’t bring in a PDF of a Codex that hasn’t been released yet. Both uncool and illegal. 

    Now... saying all of that, these rules will only apply when I run an ITC event and that has been discussed with the players that originally had an issue. For all other events it won’t matter if it drops the day of as long as you have it, in hand, before the tournament starts.
