Torg Posted October 6, 2022 Report Share Posted October 6, 2022 I don't have all the details - but a Bolt Action game day tourney will be happening in Aurora, Oregon (space reserved - plans stuff worked out) on November 12th ... 1250pts ("Armies Of..." lists - LVO style prep). This is not a tourney - just 3 games and a fun day. When I know more I will let you know... I hear they may have a game day as well in Dec or prior to LVO in Jan? I don't know - not going to LVO myself. I will be at this game day though - most likely with my USMC ready to roll. -d 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Glacius Posted October 6, 2022 Report Share Posted October 6, 2022 What war period is typically taken? I typically run early to mid war armies, but if most bring late war, my pop guns are going to be useless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torg Posted October 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2022 The game days folks make a standard "Reinforced Platoon" built from the "Armies of ... " books...units not from campaign or other extra books typically. Although the game days are not tourneys so folks bring other things if they want to. But several of the players and organizers are planning to go to LVO - so they are trying to stick to LVO legal builds. That doesn't mean you have to build your list that way. Most all these players are new to war-games in general - I have not heard anything about what war periods are being used... or tooling up lists specific to tourney play. check it out... see how things go and make the list you want to play... is pretty much how things roll currently. -d 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Glacius Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Sorry I didn't make it. I came close. But wife just got home after being gone for a whole week and it just didn't feel right to be gone a whole day. Plus, I couldn't even get my Italians up to 1250pts. 😞 we'll try to get a game in together soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torg Posted November 14, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2022 no problem - I got 2 games in - one victory and one loss - was a fun outing. See you next time perhaps. I can always cut down my list to match your points - what size do you typically play? d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Glacius Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Being restricted to base reinforced companies out of the one book kind of hurts. Like I have the little pop AT gun...but then I can't take any arty. I think I based my army out of the Armies of the Sun book or something..so going back to the crap Italy book where they have the worst special rules ever just doesn't do well. But I get why you do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acer circinatum Posted April 11 Report Share Posted April 11 Any Bolt Action tournaments in 2024? I have a few people that I’ve been coaxing into the hobby who are interested in going to a tournament with me. Is there anything happening for Bolt Action in the PNW in 2024?

Torg Posted April 11 Author Report Share Posted April 11 There is a Game Day happening later this month at Shiv Games down in Salem... Saturday the 27th. I don't do tourneys so I am not sure what else is going on this year. Local Bolt Action outfit is Rosti's Gambit... over at https://www.rostisgambit.com. Ran by the local Warlord Games rep / outrider (not sure what they are called) - but they also have a Discord which is where most of the up to date news is at. They respond fairly quickly on Discord. -d 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acer circinatum Posted April 14 Report Share Posted April 14 Thanks much, Torg. I’ll give it a look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
