A small history of Get Off My LAN. This will be our 3rd OFCC and for the players on the team this is the premier event of the year. We are a laid-back group of beer-and-pretzel players who enjoy more campaign or story focused games versus the competitive nature of tournaments. We are all here to get some great games in, see beautiful armies, make new friends, see old friends and overall share a great weekend with fellow 40K fans.
This year the team consists of:
@Manethak - Troy - Tau - Team Captain - Troy started playing 40K in 2009 (if memory serves correctly) when Logan introduced him to Tau. Despite owning Necrons, Alpha Legion, and drooling over the new Knights, he remains loyal to the "Greater Good". For him the best thing about Tau is their sleek vehicles, robots and big guns. Troy prefers friendly non-hyper competitive games which can have a narrative attached.
@Khorne_Red_Jeep - Logan - Imperial Fists - Logan started playing 40k in 2009 as Salamanders. After a brief 7500 point foray into Chaos Space Marines, he returned to the Emperor when he won the 2016 OFCC Raffle "Betrayal at Calth" set, which he combined with triple Vindicators to create a new desert-themed army to fight for "Get Off My LAN!"
@merkthejerk - Richard - Tyranids - Richard started playing 40K when Troy and Logan introduced it to him in 2014. Since then he has enjoyed his swarm and not painting his models (painting is not part of the hobby which Richard enjoys). Richard has not played any significant amount of 40K since last years OFCC.
@Sume - Chris - Slaanesh - Chris joined Get Off My LAN this year. He is a casual 40K player who does not get in nearly as many games as he would like to. He is comfortable playing in either a tournament or a campaign game, but prefers to not play cut-throat lists. This is his third year at OFCC and he looks forward to seeing all the beautiful armies while taking his first dive into a melee focused army.

So, just wondering about a few things.
1) With the above, sounds like bringing less than 2k for your army size is acceptable. Even much less than 2k. A 500pt list would acceptable as written.
This as I understand it is fine. One of the opponents I played two years ago brought either a 1750 or 1850 list full of defilers (if memory serves) plus a brass scorpion. Still lost with my 2000 point list, but had fun blowing up the scorpion.

Thank you Bryan for the continued diligence in clarifying all the questions. This helps a lot.

Written in gw style :). Rules state single detachment with no model over 400 pts or 20 wounds. There is some flavor text about sources but those ain't rules...
If you apply number of books as sources then rough riders ain't old school, lol. While if sources means specific <> only detachment then index is cool as is forge world for old school.
Where are you getting the <> is a source? Wouldn't that make getting the achievement almost trivial as long as the army is running a single detachment. Just keep inexpensive units and don't run any sort of imperium/chaos soup and by this definition one would automatically get the achievement.
Due to the nature of interpretation I think that this may need @evil_bryan to explain his intent.
-
The achievement still says single source. It only addressed the gargantuan /super heavy.
-
I interpreted this achievement to be single book. If I bring FW it would have to be all FW.
Just my two worthless cents, but the reason I see it that way has to do with the achievement name - to me it hearkens back to the days when FW was despised by most of my local players because it was extremely unbalanced.

Clarification on Old Skool please. No selection from flyers or nothing with fly?
Example: Chinork carrying troop Grots, it's a dedicated transport. Am I good?
I think eliminating the keyword fly would hose too many units, eg: it immediately eliminates most Tau units.

If it helps I am working on a play table too, trying to get the buildings to work and look good. Hopefully I'll have it ready in time for the event.

Would this be hosted in the same hall? Would it interfere with any setup being done for the 40k event?

Congrats Kill! Maim! Beer!
Team Get Off My LAN should now also be fully paid.

Are you using OFC for the block code? Otherwise I would recommend calling me talking to someone to complete the reservation.
-
About $150 a night plus taxes for the days which are covered by ofcc. I believe those days are the 23rd - 26th
-
Team Get Off My LAN may be looking for a 4th this year. Still waiting on a couple of potential responses. If interested in potentially joining the team send me a PM. I will update this post as I get more information from the potentials.Team has been filled. Thank you all who were interested.

Will there be a block of hotel rooms available to reserve for the OFCC members who are travelling like there was last year?

@Craeat The approach I would take is use the size limits of the old CAD system, but fit it into a single battalion. Is this correct Bryan, or would these lists be foregoing command points all together?

I am leading Get Off My LAN again this year.

Troy
Hello, this year I am representing Get Off My LAN! as the team captain. Last year's OFCC was the first for most of us and we enjoyed it so much that we are returning this year. I have been playing 40k since about 2010. I got started on Tau and to date they are still my first love in the 40k universe. This year I am bringing a Farsight Enclaves list. Unfortunately I have not been able to play much (2-3 games) since last year's OFCC since the 40k community lacks in my area. I am very much looking forward to the good games with the chill people of OFCC and probably too much beer/whiskey.
Logan
I began playing Salamanders in fifth edition and slowly built up my space marine collection. I took a break through almost all of sixth edition but returned in early seventh. I continued building space marines and repainting them as Delta Templars, a custom chapter. At TSHFT 2016 I went all-in on a Khorne army, including Chaos Space Marines and Chaos Daemons. After building over five thousand points of Khorne Daemonkin, I switched back to my space marines, stripping many of them to build the "Solar Eternals" custom chapter (or simply the "Desert Marines"), an Imperial Fists successor.
I love all parts of the hobby and am always striving to improve my painting, competitive play, and lore knowledge. Probably my favorite part overall is kitbashing new models, particularly HQs. I'm definitely at my weakest making and painting terrain, although I have a few trees and hills under my belt. I've attended two TSHFTs, two Guardian Cups, and probably around fifty league nights at Guardian Games in Portland. I've also hosted a small tower defense style event and played a 10k two-player apocalypse game in the last year or so.
Richard
Richard started playing as Tyranids at the very start of 7th Edition, so he has a high tolerance for salt and getting tabled. He also enjoys coffee, working as an engineer and reading how other armies have been nerfed for 8th.
Mark
I have been playing Orks as my primary army the entire time I've played 40k. I came back to the game after a long hiatus in January 2008. I love doing Ork conversions and scratch builds, and recently started in on LED lighting my wargaming models. In addition to Orks, I have Tau, Dark Angels and Space Wolves. I play weekly and in tournaments frequently. I also run a moderately successful Youtube channel, Da40kOrks.
