Sign yourselves up; instructions are as above.
(Seriously, I have no control over the sign-up aspects.)

Might have to make the trip up north for this one

Looks like I need to talk to the boss...

Haha, alright alright. We'll call in one of these days

Sounds tempting since it's just right in my backyard. If only I didn't have to work on both Sat & Sun.

I'm a defnite "maybe".

I have an urge to bring my nids and have a rematch with Christian's mechguards.

You are a model of indecisiveness.

You've got over 2 months to figure out a way to attend; commit!

I wish ya'll would move to Southern CA and throw your tournaments here =(.

I'm really thinking of coming to this one. Since there's really no tournaments from here to January. JY2 i think i might have to get a re-match with you when i'm up there. I don't run the manticores any more, i just have a lot of hydras.

Count me in. This sound too awesome to pass up.

unfortunitly it would cost me a pretty penny to make the trip up north =(

Carpool! It's not that bad a drive.

I will try to make it out for this one! Not too bad of a drive.

What missions are you planning on doing for this event?

Also will forgeworld units be used?? Doubt it, but thought id ask.

christianA wrote:What missions are you planning on doing for this event?

Missions will be in the style of the Adepticon 40k Championships missions; if the 2012 Primer Missions are available by then, we'll use them.

I'm afraid not. I'm looking to keep things fairly simple for this event - it's my (and Game Kastle's) first multiday tournament.

Team Zero Comp will be there! It's in our back yard basically, so we'll come for sure.

See you guys there!

I think I am playing nids, although I am not certain yet.

Does this mean that the INAT FAQ is in effect?

Yes.

Footdar!

I have no time to finish painting the nids, so the Mighty mighty Footdar will be coming out to kick ass and take names! 1,500pts is the sweet spot for that army.

I hope I play Grey Knights every round! hahaha

We're heading into the final stretch, folks, and slots are filling up. If you want to join us, today would be an EXCELLENT day to call Game Kastle and sign up!

Dude, you've got 3 weeks - TONS of time to finish your 'Nids up!

We're up to our eyeballs in commissions here.

Plus, my Footdar are my favorite army to play. They shall comes and do work!

Well over half the slots gone, and that's with a fair number of the locals not signed up yet - if you're considering attending, you should sign up NOW!

Well then I'd better sign up tomorrow...only 2 CCB's left to paint and I'll be ready.

Do we need to send our lists in early or anything?

Nope, just bring at least 7 typed copies. We'll review them as the day goes by; please make sure you're accurate & precise.

Tournament is this weekend, folks - I hope you're looking forward to it!

I'm going to be at GK on Friday night at 8pm, to get tables set up ahead of time. Any & all are welcome to join me and help get things organized!

Great Event!

I hope you do it again.

Will the results be posted someplace?
