ChaosGerbil Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 I'm assembling, repairing, and repainting my terrain collection, most of which has been at TSHFT for a long time. It would be a shame to let all my scenery go to waste. I thought a small event similar to The WarPorchTM would be in order. I will setup as many themed tables as needed for whoever wants to come. Each table will have a mission to go with it, similar to the ITC tournament missions, but with a balanced twist. Format: Warhammer 40,000 7th edition, ITC or close enough Size: 1500 points Restrictions: No Lords of War, superheavies, or gargantuan creatures. Take it easy on cheesy formations, psychics, and special ability combos. Where: My house in Maple Valley, WA Date/ time: TBD based on interest I was thinking we can do two rounds of 1v1, about 2 hours each. Afterwards would be open gaming and/or bullshooting. I have a ton of board games, karaoke, etc., or we could do more 40k. Or you could go home and see your neglected family. It's YOUR choice. I have a porch for smoking whatever you want short of crack. I'll be serving some grub, let me know if you're vegan or allergic or something.

fluger Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 I'm in! Let's try and make sure we don't schedule an event on the same day though! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PumpkinHead Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Sounds interesting. I am more interested in the bullshooting then 40k. If we field dress it where it lands do we get to keep the meat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluger Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Oh, and it should go without saying that I want to play on the Ork terrain! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Hanaur Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 I will play on the Tau terrain... that i bring...which is massive and awesome... Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosGerbil Posted February 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 Sounds like Gerbilcon is confirmed. Post or PM me your best dates and I will find a time that works for everyone. Fluger, most of classic Orktown is MIA but I have a new shakk and enough scrap piles to make it work. You have dibs. Hanuar, I'd prefer to use my terrain but why don't you bring your best pieces, and if they're gorgeous, they can spice up a wasteland. We have five players, I think I can get the one local to come out, and maybe we'll pick up a couple more. Eight is enough. Can anyone bring a table? I can supply two tables, and I might buy a third.

Naw I was kidding about the terrain. I was referring to my beautiful Tidewall Rampart. It looks so cool. ITC says no, so i guess i can't bring it to an ITC event that goes purely by ITC rules. I do have tons o terrain otherwise but none as nice as yours. I'd know. I've played at your house. So in the interest of aesthetics I'll leave it behind and just play if the day works out. Since you don't want cheddary goodness (for all the obvious reasons) I could always randomly roll for my army. I recommend setting the date that works best for you or giving a choice of two dates and going with a poll. Any more than that and it will become a scheduling nightmare. Even if you only get six people or whatever, its better than making it a nightmare for you to plan.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosGerbil Posted February 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2016 Let's aim for low-fat cheese. Trimmed beards. Tough lists are fine, build to win. Rolling randomly is way too much of a hindrance in my opinion. Some of us just can't keep up with the worst of the worst combos, DLC formations and some of the forgeworld nastiness. Cheese? You'll know it when you see it. I'm honestly not going to be super strict about checking lists or anything. This is a fun event and we'll probably just give you a hard time instead of banning a unit.

Given the comments I generally get, I don't think cheese will be too much aof a problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometime we should get together and I can get your help building my Ork shanty terrain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaosGerbil Posted February 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 Fluger I'd be glad to help. I may as well make another Ork building or two. Send me a PM if you can make it over to my house, I am pretty flexible on time if you don't mind a munchkin underfoot. I have spare supplies too, although pre-cut MDF(masonite) bases and extra ork bits would come in handy. I do have some masonite, but it's hard to cut without a vise, unless you use the brass balls method. I might need to restock my hot glue supply, it's not a necessity but can be helpful. The basic idea is hot glue for placement, and white glue or superglue for durability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluger Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 I have the rough form of all of them, just need bits and paint. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
