Well the big weekend is close in hand and many of the superstars from last year will be on hand to see who is the best. Are you brave enough to show your list here? If it is good enough there is no reason to keep it a secret!

I like how you ask everyone to post their list, but do not start it off by posting yours.
I am going to play my normal Eldar list.

4 Harliquins w/Kisses
Spirit Seer w/Kiss
Troup Leader w/Power Weapon
5 Scorpions

I might switch it around some. I might drop a few Guardians for some Dire Avengers, or take a Vyper or 2 for objective grabbing.

If I could go, I'd probably bring my standard Chaos list.
2 DP
3 TS
2 EC
3 Ob
It's annoyingly good.

How many points is this, where is Adepticon, and what does one do to get an invitation? I'd love to see Blackmoor and Green Blow Fly in Action. Now if only we could convince Stelek's spouse that he really NEEDS more than one tournament a year if he is not to go into a state of psychotic depression.....

It has the same rules as the Gladiator, but it is only 1850 points.

You have to score top ten in battle points in a GT in the previous year.
Never have been able to go. It's just too early in the year.
Besides, I hate going alone and the people I do want to take cannot go.
I believe it's April 11-13, held at the Crown Plaza hotel in Rosemont Il.
I might still go to help run things, but that'd be about all I'd do.

The Invitational does not follow the same rules as the Gladiator according to the Adepticon site.
It states the following are NOT allowed in the Invitational 40k Championships:
ForgeWorld Imperial Armor units, armies, and rules
Rules and Army Lists marked as "Trial" or "Optional"
Warhammer 40,000 Apocalypse rules
Lost and the Damned Armies
Feral Orks
Armored Companies
Relictors Wargear found in US White Dwarf #280

You are right, I was looking at the big picture as it is a no comp/painting score and all about the battle points.
I find it a bit odd that they allow Old One Eye, the Death Leaper, and the Red Terror. As if the godzilla list needs some help in the mid-west.

Stelek it is a shame you will be unable to attend. Adepticon needs people of your stature in attendance.
Now Blackmoor and I have played once and he won a fairly close match but this time I will have my nasty list.

Only time will tell if it passes the truly nasty test.
BTW during the Gladiator event is the best time to check out OPP while they are tied up gaming.

I'm probably running an eldar list with three falcons, harlies, fire dragons, pathfinders, jetbikes, warp spiders and Yriel. I'm almost done painting them, but my buddies are using them for the gladiator and team tournament. I'll be using necrons for the friday and saturday events...
Everyone ought to put their screen name on their nametags as well. I wouldn't mind meeting some of the folks on Dakka.

If more of us valued food and cheer and 40K over hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world. |

All in all, fact is that Warhammer 40K has never been as balanced as it is now, and codex releases have never been as interesting as they are now (new units and vehicles and tons of new special rules/strategies each release -- not just the same old crap with a few changes in statlines and points costs).
