    We have squeezed all the good pocket change out of you, time for new rules to keep the cauffers full. It is strait out of the Citadel handbook on milking your customers....sad

    Vancouver people seem to be a lot like Italy. Start on one side and end on the other.

    Get your list to Barca ASAP. Bring forth the rising sun

    There is an award for best art. There is an award for best tactics (General) The larger award is for the person that is most balanced in all disciplines. Can't make everyone happy.

    Where is Oregon city in proximity to Portland?

    Team: for the painting competition, please bring a sample photo or artist rendering of the period colors/ style. The store will be officiating and it is possible that the judge's historical knowledge will be novice. Thus a reference point is highly encouraged. I am waiting to hear back from Barca on my scoring rubrics but the plan roughly is: Best general 30% Best art/history/display 30% Best Commander (sum of above points + plus sportsmanship totals) 40%. I figured this would be more difficult to achieve and thus a better run on the prizes. This gives the possibility to win in three areas

    Portland folk, we should be good on turf at this point

    Hanaur: if you want to support with terrain, please come the night before if possible. We are setting up late so security should not be an issue with our kit. If you cannot make th night prior, we can work the morning of, but be there right at doors opening if at all possible. Thank you for the contribution.

    My apology for the delay in response but I have been TDY for the past week and I am just getting back in. I have never participated in a NW Invasion. From the historical context, I figured it was just dudes from the south beating on dudes from the north in a team based tournament. I have always been a fan of simplicity and would elect to keep that flavor as time is just something I do not have a lot of these days. Recommendation is that points total decide the winning team after three matches. Red on blue are valid points, blue on blue are not counted toward the team but the individual score as Dylan noted. Captains are appointed the day of the fight when we know who will show up. If the desire is to have a more complex organization of the game, I will need help. Currently we have five tables reserved, but it is looking like we are going to use only four, leaving us with a kit table. I will set up the night prior at 2300ish and will pack out after we finish. At current pace, Ed and I have enough terrain to dress four nice tables. My request is that Portland guys bring a little stuff if a fifth table is required. Please throw about concerns and I can continue to work them this week.

    What is the role of Captains? Does the loser get tar and feathered b the opposing team?

    Here is the latest. 1. We have five tables to our disposal. The store opens at 1000 and I will plan to set up the night before @2300. Right now Ed and I can cover four tables nicely. If anyone wants to step up to cover one more, the support would be appreciated. the Portland crew has volunteered to cover one, but I want to avoid using them if at all possible as they are guests and it could delay a kick off time of 1100. If the Portland people support, we will roll with it. 2. Prize support is strictly gift cards on behalf of the store based solely on the gate fee of $10. 3. Five tables means only 10 players, so get your lists in ASAP. 4. Opening at 1000; first match at 1100; 2hour 15 minute matches with a 45 minute lunch and two 15 minutes breaks. 1100-1215 match A 1215-1300 lunch 1300-1515 match B 1515-1530 break 1530-1745 match C 1745-1815 awards, close out and packing. -Der Noland

    Sorry team, had to go dormant for a while, work sped up and I have to go TDY. Odd thing about Gabbi's, they have not responded to my queries. I will try and pop in on Saturday and see what they need to know.

    I sense...a....leadership opportunity for Lord Hanaur.

    I am more than happy to join in remotely from the Puget Sound. Very intriguing.
  16. Noland
    The distance limits me to a single day
  17. Noland
    So we hung flyers at both OCC and Matrix, have post here and have open talks with Gabi, so I am out of steam on what else we can do to generate interest. If you want to get a poster floating on Facebook on your spheres, I can push one to you, I just need an email.

    Love the idea of a tank shield all the same for 10 points....Einenstine work there
  19. Noland
    I thought gun tank was 4+?

    I had a great time and it was well worth the drive. I look forward to meeting up again in the end of October for our early war match. Great work to Barca for all the organization.

    That thing is soooooo annoying. I will have to keep to the trees.

    So if you like to play for or against US, the below web site is full of interesting notes at the division level. You basically can pick any US division and see every attachment/detachment, casualty rate, towns occupied and the commanders of the units. Pretty cool site hosted by the US Army. http://www.history.army.mil/documents/eto-ob/etoob-toc.htm

    The only challenge of east and west is the miles between the populations. It is a rare sight to get more than two people from eith side of the state to show up for just FOW. Now setting something up when you have a magnet like Enfilade....that can be a different story.

    I could bring a table top, but I will not be arriving until 0930 of game day, so I think my offer of support is of no use.
