Looking to see if there is any interest in a “bring what you have built”, up to 500 Power Level, no Forgeworld, Imperial vs. Chaos vs. Xenos battle. 

I think there is normally one somewhere in town for Black Friday but that’s too soon for my area to get one programmed. 

Let me know if you’d be interested and if so, what army would you bring? If you have Forgeworld, let me know what it is... it could help me convince people making the rules to bend or break the no Forgeworld ruling. 

Thanks again Ordo!

Yeah, I feel GW is missing a ton of $$ on this! Literally looking to put the unit entries on 5”x8” card stock. If it is bigger than the one side I would double side it but not looking photos as I don’t do conversions. This has to be something someone can do or has the ability to do.  :) 

Anyone have the ability to make up something like the Age of Sigmar Warscroll Cards but for 40k? I love my books but what GW did for AoS with the cards is genius. PM me if you have something I can edit or Straight print out. Thanks again!

That’s one thing I totally forgot was the 10am product launch deal. Funny thing is my event starts at 9:30am technically lol. So you’d be right about the legal aspect of a Codex with that alone. 

Torg!! I will PM you!!

PM’d you!

I’m getting “it’s a legal codex so it should be used” and “it’s illegal for you to not use the most up to date rules”. 

To all the TOs on here... You have event on this Saturday. You have the Eldar Codex dropping this Saturday. Do you allow it to be used? Explain your answers please. 

It is a requirement if your looking to score points in the painting department or going for Best Painted. As for needing to be painted to play, no, not required. 

I PM’d you ;) 

Anyone have a 4x6 Tabletop I could borrow for the weekend? I have a large event on Saturday and could use a couple more “just in case”. I’ve got a 6 pack and a shout out at the event for ya :) 

We have some pretty cool Sponsor opportunities!! PM me if you have a business that you like to get out there to a bunch of fantastic people! 

Don’t forget to sign up!!! You can sign up through Best Coast Pairing or at Geeks and Games!!! Only a couple weeks away!!

Very small event, 24 players. 

Younger players and new players. We have had several discussions at the Game store and felt that PL was the way to go so we could accommodate new players to the list building and tournament scene. We hope you can make it!!

Here we go!! Just a few “tid-bits” for the tourney!

•We will be using the ITC missions 1, 3, and 5 for the Pioneer Open
•The points will be broken down as follows:
   -Normal Win/Loss points per ITC missions
   -Normal Secondary/Tertiary points per ITC      missions
   -Sportsmanship will be a 1-5 score
   -Army Composition will be a 1-10 score 
   -Paint will be a 1-10 per TO for Best Overall
•NO FORGEWORLD 
•Battle-forged army only
•FAQ from GW will be used 
•Best Painted AWARD will be a player vote
•Power Level (100) is being used instead of the 2,000 point system. 

There is still more being worked out such as lunch possibly being provided (or purchased), a raffle being done and fun donations for command points system. 

We have spots for 24 players since this year will be played in the store (looking into a larger area for next year already) and are taking sign-ups as we speak! You can either PayPal myself (anthony.hammerschmith@gmail.com) or come into the store and pay (recommended) the $15 registration fee!!

Again, the date for this is October 28th from 9am-hopefully 6pm. 

I will be posting this to all of the gaming boards I am part of but please feel free to share amongst your groups as well! Hope to see you all there and stay tuned for more information to come in the next week!!

Your Warmaster,
Anthony

I have:

40 Horm

120 Term

3 warriors

25 Genestealers

Going to be Captain of Fuzzier Dice ;) 

Haha! Even though I agree with what has been said I still sent an email off to GW to ease my mind. I'll let you know what they say. For now it will be the Rehati War Sect formation :) 

Thank you!!!! I've been racking my brain why no one has just added Magnus to their list lol!!

Looking through the Wrath of Magnus rules I noticed there is a command formation listed that allows you to take just Magnus (I think it's called Master of the Legion). With this I could essentially just add Magnus to a Chaos Daemon list as a "formation", right? Help me understand this if it's a no. Thanks again Ordo!!

Yeah, just "no MCs or LoWs" is a very broad guideline and actually doesn't touch many of the stronger tournament lists out there, while simultaneously disqualifying many armies that are quite weak (like Tyranids) from taking almost any units.

I think there are plenty of people who would be interested in a casual-styled event, but you'd want to have good guidelines on what is/isn't acceptable and some sort of way for people to test the waters with their list to see if it's okay. (I would also avoid calling it a "tournament" if you aren't trying to get people to bring strong lists- otherwise, you get into a weird "bring a list that is strong but not too strong but stronger than that" kinda issue.)

Totally hear what your saying! We will look at armies and current ITC restrictions and start the brain storming. I know the store owner doesn't want those huge competitive cheese lists at the moment unless we do an ITC competitive tourney (which we will do as well). I would personally like to do something that's a mix of "the fluffiest list" and an OFCC list. Something in between would be fun and could be competitive I think.

You would need to go over it...

Yes. I would go over it when we land on a date and tourney style. 

Perfect! Thanks for the input! For friendly I would think a fluff list would be the best way, maybe no LoW or Monsterous Creatures. We all know what an ITC list looks like so I don't think I would need to go over that one ;)
