If anyone is ever around the Yakima area i would like to try a 9th age game. I have been unsuccessful in getting the people in the cities around me to give it a try.

I also vote for 9th Age :).

I had a chance to dig into this as well and i am impressed, it looks very fun to play and very well thought and laid out.

The painting piece of your post is difficult. I will freely admit since I am slightly color blind any dark army that doesn't have shiny bits will not catch my attention. I feel particularly bad for skaven armies as no matter how well they greys are done it just looks like one big grey blob to me.

I don't know how close it actually was or if points mattered but I feel privileged that my slann contributed to your win by entering a combat against 13 silver helms with 21 temple guard and a flank charge of 35 saurus warriors with a scar vet. The slann felt bad for Greysons high elves so blew up 9 temple guard on a two dice ice shard blizzard miscast then promptly got kicked in the face next turn by a horse and died. Ahh the big toad, always does so well :).

I have never had dipping work for me. There are some great pictures of models that dipped and look spectacular but I just dont know how to make it work. They always come out about 10 shades darker than they should be and i can't highlight them back to looking good.

Finish Bastildon (i didn't paint him and it so well painted that it looks almost out of place in my army but I at least get to do the howdah and pretend ) 5 Temple Guard and full command Skink with a banner 3 Kroxigor Movement Trays Display Board My biggest issue right now is do i spend the time trying to get the 3d printer to work again and make some filler or do i just paint the models.

My conversion is on a soulgrinder base. It feels correct :).

Whoops that was an old copy and paste. Our captain already pointed that one out and i updated it. For now just ignore the banner.

Here is mine. Should be fun, it looks nice on the table (or will be when i finish painting everything very soon!).

Is nagash and his army going to be allowed? :)

I'm not in a hurry, of course until the wife looks at the checking account ;).

I bought a few too many NIB Space Wolves I have NIB Grey Hunters Dread/Murderfang Thunderwolves Want $105 to your door. ALL SOLD - Thanks Ordo

If you don't mind items being shipped I have 10 boyz and a NIB Ork plane if your interested. $45 for everything. I'm in Yakima :)

Theres a group of 3 40k players from Yakima that are trying to find another so they can play in the weekend event. They are already paid and planning to go to the Friday event. Feel free to PM me and i'll get you in contact with the captain if there is anyone that has been left without a team.

Yep, i felt like i had a lot more painted and ready to go and then i pulled out everything that is left and its quite a pile. I might need to take a week off work like i did last time to finish.

Is an ethereal dread saurian too over the top for this event or is this type of strength what people are expecting?

In all honesty if the released a pink pony as a model heck yea i would buy it.

I am really debating the slann. The only reason i am thinking of bringing him is to get monsters forward more quickly with walk between worlds and setup some interesting spell combinations or try and slow war machines down. I'm not sure I can justify the points cost.

Yes they did change the comp rules which I am grateful for. A 3 monster limit with Lizardmen really limits a lot of the more fun choices and really leads to a boring list imo.

So I may not get my first army done in time so I may have to fall back to my lizardmen. Is anyone opposed to a monster heavy list? I was thinking of something like Scarvet/Carnosaur 2 stegs 2 ancient stegs bastilidon Then for core it would be a few Skrox units. For magic i would either try and fit a slann with wandering deliberations or another steg with engine of the gods. What do you guys think?

This is my second OFCC. Last year I created a few lists and submitted them to our team captain who has played in OFCC quite often, he helped me tailor my list down to what he felt would be an acceptable level. My understanding is that since OFCC is an invitational event their should be someone who has been there before that can help you tailor your list down if it's too strong. If you do not have that, post it on the forums here and let people weight in on it. (Extra rant feel free to skip) Also, and this is just my opinion, if a person is consumed with the idea of winning games or only playing matches they feel are "fair" then OFCC may not be the correct place for them. Last year I played on a board that had a huge lake in the middle, i played lizardmen magic heavy army so i had a big advantage from the start. My opponent and I just laughed and played the game out and enjoyed the environment and talking about the armies and strategies. The very next game we played random deployment and 80% of my army was stuck on the far right side of the board and the slann and his poor cohorts were stuck on the far left side of the board staring at a bunch of skull crushers. Again my opponent and I both thought it was humorous and we had a good time discussing basing strategies as he had a really great looking army. Neither game was "fair" and neither my opponents or I cared in the slightest, we just enjoyed playing and talking and checking out all the really well done armies.

Yes, the OFCC committee will bar anyone that brings a cheesy list and thier captain from any alcoholic beverage for the entire weekend. You have been warned.

The tickets for this started going fast all of the sudden. I'll see everyone there!

I'll volunteer to get us started. I'm a solo in need of a team. Or a team in need of 3 others :).
