deadwing34 Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 Do you have an estimated or actual start date for the Age of Sigmar league? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atules Posted June 26, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2021 Yeah, we’re targeting some time in September. It’ll give folks time to get familiar with the new rules. What we’re really waiting for is Red Castle to open up their gaming tables. We’ll probably get regular games going before the Escalation League 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atules Posted July 4, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2021 AoS Escalation League Purpose This league is meant to introduce new and old players to Age of Sigmar 3rd edition. It is meant to be a friendly and inviting environment for people to learn and to cultivate the AoS community. The escalation league will start on September 18th and be held at Red Castle Games. Time TBD. Schedule This league will be held over 6 weeks. Matches will be based on a round robin. This will allow everyone a chance to play with one another. There will be an official weekly meetup to play the match. However, if either player can not attend they may set up a day within the allotted week to play their game. Each player will coordinate either through Red Castle Discord or by other means and report the results to the event organizer by the last day of the round. NOTE: There will be no make-up rounds in this league. All matches must be completed and reported by the Sunday of round end. Players may forfeit matches to have their opponent receive full combat points. If neither player wishes to concede, the match will be considered a tie, with each player receiving one combat point. Any league participant who does not play their match for two rounds in a row will be dropped from the league.

Rounds One and Two will be played on a 33” x 44” table, while Rounds Three - Six will be played on a 44” x 60” table. Scenarios are considered to be Matched Play games.

Akylas Posted July 28, 2021 Report Share Posted July 28, 2021 Hello, I've only played the previous edition starter set and am interesting in getting more into AOS. Would this be a good way to get into the game and new edition? I'm happy enough to lose but wouldn't want to drag things down as a new player.

You can totally come play AoS Wednesday nights at Guardian Games. Being a beginner and teaching other players is all built into the system they have set up. You can also play games at any point size. Red Castles escalation league I am sure would be great for this as well. They also play on Fridays at Geeks and Games.

Warhammer Casual League - Guardian Games (ggportland.com) I like Guardian Games a lot. I'd like to check out their aos night but I work evenings during the week. I'm pretty much stuck looking for stuff on Saturdays right now, unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're pretty casual players and looking to build the community. We still have time between now and when the league starts so a bunch of us are just painting our armies and getting a few games in to get familiar with the rules. If that's your speed then come join us on Red Castle Games Discord and say hi! https://discord.gg/875RwTZ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
