I've posted on this thread way earlier. Many Dakka-ites are going, myself included. I'm participating in the Team Tournament, my army is in my plog, in my sig.

Big ole' party. Adepticon is THE tabletop wargaming event of the year, way more than just 40K.

I would suggest, for this project, investing in a set of rechargeable batteries. You can get a set and a charger for darn cheap off of Amazon.com.

You also need a sound chip and a speaker and a mercury switch and...

Ha, I was just at Radio Shack the other day trying to figure out if I could use a sound module for anything cool. I was thinking maybe back ground explosion noise from a piece of terrain, might set battle mood.

Anybody remember the FW Squiggoth that someone put an Ipod speakers and dock into?

And yeah. rivets looking good!
