I'm fairly certain there's no specific thread for this FLGS, so I thought I'd give one a try. The Game Empire forums are fairly slow moving, so perhaps a larger forum would serve this purpose better. I'm aware there's a 40k night at Game Empire (Tuesdays), but some folks may want to play at different times or enjoy scheduling a game prior to showing up.
I know it's not a "pick-up" in the strictest sense of the term, but you get the idea.

Not sure I can make tomorrow, but I am definitely interested in getting in a pickup game in the next week or two. I have some Guard that I haven't really played since 6th hit, so I'd like to get a handle on them.

I may be down for a game tomorrow night or perhaps Thursday. PM me if you're interested in either day. I probably can't get to GE before 8pm tomorrow though.

I agree about the slowness of the forum, and I would be up for playing a 2000 pt game tomorrow. I need some playtesting games for the Golden Throne.

Post by: Thokt
I'm gonna play with toocool tomorrow, since he's able to play earlier and that works out for me. Maybe Dark and Overwatch can line up a game with one another?

Feltak, you should head to Game Empire on Tuesday nights (40k night). There are plenty of friendly players about, and you're of course welcome to watch. Just don't bug guys about rules during their games, and you'll be just fine!
On a side note, I played with TooCool today at Game Empire and he's a great guy. He runs a really fun Eldar list, and we had a great game.

Agreed! I may have lost this time but it won't be the same next time! I look forward to playing you again and hope to see you soon. Also hope this thread creates other great opportunities to have same great experiences.

Both armies look great, I have seen Mikes' Orks a lot but I still need to see your Necrons in person. Those look awesome. I will be playing a game this week but am free next week on Tuesday night so I will be in on Tuesday night.

Saturday has unexpectedly opened for me, possibly Sunday, too. A larger game, anyone? Up to 2k?

I have a fully painted Praetorian Guard army will all the fluffy, crappy trimmings (Ogryns, Ratlings, motorcycle roughriders, ect.) but I haven't played a 40k game in a while and am not well versed in 6th edition's rules. If you don't mind holding someone's hand (figuratively) while they come to grips with the rules I'd be down to play a fluffy game. I can usually only make Saturday my gaming day but with some notice I can be available day or night on a Saturday.

Cheers DT!
Thokt, maybe we three can all get together for some games, I'm always happy to play a fluffy game too, when you drink heavily during games on occasion, you basically have to get used to losing with good grace!
My Ultramarines army is large, fluffy, and well painted, but I haven't got my filthy mitts on it yet following my move from merry olde England, when I'm squared away Id be happy to pit them against your Eldar.

Howdy Matt and DTT!
Sounds like we just need to get the schedule working. Weekends are rougher for me, but weekday evenings are a total possibility. I'd also like to add that there's a pretty great group that's formed in the last year called West Side Los Angeles gaming group. We meet up once a month (usually on a weekend so I don't always make it) and the players are good guys. There's a number of fully painted armies present every meet up. The thread for that group is in this forum. Matt, are weekdays a possibility for you? DTT it sounds like our best bet for gaming is to have a match at one of the gaming club meetups. Sound good?
21853
Post by: mattyrm
Hi mate
Yeah weekdays are great for me, I only live like a mile away, walking distance to GE was a pivotal and direct requirement of my missus before I was willing to move.
Only thing is my army isnt arriving until the 23rd, so were fethed until then, after that, weekdays are fine for me, so we can sort something out no problem.

Absolutely, this thread still works. I think some players just end up pming each other or texting after they've met up through this thread and broken the ice.
On a related note, the Westside Gaming Club is meeting up at GE this Saturday from morning to night. I'd accept your game invite, but this week if able I'm going to try to get a fluffy match in with mattyrm.
Your Imperial Fists look incredible btw, I'd love to get a game in when able.

Either around 10 or noon I'd presume. There are even sometimes a pretty good amount of other 40k players there as well so if we were to finish up a game you could switch off with someone else who was there and get another quick 2nd game in, there was once where I actually got 3 in a row almost like my very own tournament

Hey Extreme! I might be game for such a league, I'm into trying different modes of play: live scoring, highlander, campaign, etc. I have a competitive Necron list and a fluffy Iyanden army.
79209
Post by: extremefreak17
Interesting, as I have a (fairly) competitive Eldar army, and a fluffy (probably more bad than anything) Necron army. Never heard of live scoring or highlander, but i'm pretty open to almost anything. We should get together, play a game, and discuss these different modes of play.
69239
Post by: Thokt
Absolutely man! Work is dominating life right now, but in a few weeks it should ease up. I was hoping to make the fluffy tourney Saturday, but work reared its head and gave me the what for. I'll let you know when things slow down.
Live scoring is turn based objective scoring - points are acquired by holding objectives for a turn round, basically end of your turn to beginning of your next. I really like it! Highlander is a force org regulation that allows no repeats of any one particular unit (there can be only one!).
79209

I was unable to make it, but it looked like fun on the pix on FaceBook. i'm hoping to get back into Tuesday Nights.
Soon, I have summer vacation and two other 'regular' 40k players are on teacher schedules, too. I'm hoping Tuesday Night 40k will rise fun and busy! Maybe the 27th. Definitely June 10th and from there.
Also, likely I'll miss the June 14th rtt, so I'm going to want to get in some extra game time.
6e or 7e is irrelevant.  I readily changed from 4e to 5e and to 6e. Whatevs.
GE's Facebook page is prolly fastest/most assured communication to post time for a game. We can get cell phone #s later for texting once summer gets rolling. Thokt & EFrk17, we've met, and I'm looking forward to getting reacquainted.

I am all about Battle Forged, 1500, using the Tac Cards. Too many questions in my head that need to be answered. Hope that is ok with you.

I'm down to try a game or two next week, I haven't played 7th yet.
In related news, I have the Dropzone Commander starter headed to me in the mail - I'm super pumped about it! Anyone else interested in DzC?

What is DzC like?

Here's a write up by Reecius detailing DzC. Everything I've read about it is excellent and the minis are incredible.

I saw a demo at GE of DzC. It is very small, 5 to 10 figures. The turn is very different with lots of interaction. The minis are ok. The concept is not really new and the size is too small for my taste. It does not seem to be taking hold anywhere that I can see. The demo I saw at GE was a full game, I just felt it was not my cup of tea.
@extremefreak17 - great game the other day. I really need a rematch with my Tau. The Fish spam is not working for the reason you pointed out, no high strength weapons to deal with your Wave Spam. I made a new list, but I still thing the Tau need an ally. I should be able to make Tuesdays now that there is a crowd again, Wow, who knew, 40K is back at GE.

Awesome game. I cant wait to see the list. I have some tweaks I want to make in mine as well. Yeah the crowd seems pretty good recently, I have yet to come on a Tuesday and not get a game in.

5-10 figures would be a small game of DzC. That's akin to judging 40k by its 1000pt games. Consider that model count in 40k would be comparable to DzC if infantry units were also limited to one base. As far as not taking hold, Natfka and Reecius have been covering the game a good deal lately (and its only been around 2 years). In addition, it will be at the BAO this year, so while it hasn't blown up, it's certainly growing - wargames tend to start small and grow overtime. Anyhow, I was reaching out to interested players - not those who are disinterested.

Hey fellas, been a while. Took a break for some time after the LVO earlier this year, but I'm ready to get things up and running again. I'll be coming down today around 5:00 if anyone wants to game, if not I'll just probably just puy together some models, I plan on trading in a long timer army that I don't play anymore.
But yea, if anyone is interested I'll see you down there I suppose, I'll be going to the tournament tommorrow as well

What did you trade in?

Post by: Dezstiny
I traded in a bunch of chaos units... Be'lakor, a Daemon Prince with Wings, 14 khorne berzerks 15 Possessed, 2 vindicators, and lke 50 csm models... they are mostly all up to par as well... I just odnt play chaos anymore ever since I began gk back towards the end of 5th edition.In addition now that you can take allies (MUST) if your GK. then I will most likely be picking up a nother faction that I can play in unison with them, I haven't decided as to what route I'm going to take as of yet but whatever route it is... the tournamanet players aren't going to be happy.. because since the last time I played with them... I'm a much different player now, and have very keen knowledge on the Meta, and what top tier list will look like. I can tell if you will/have a chance at winning a tournament just based on what army your bring in addition to the list and the match-ups... so Knowing all that in addition to 5 top tier list that I can play utilizing GK with Allies... the next time I come down there with my army up to date... I'll probably get some people wondering what the  happened to that young Gk player with the casual-competitive list...

Hey all, I am going to be in the area 3 nights a week and am wondering what days are best for playing a game, either impromptu or scheduled. Also I am wondering if you guys have a league night like the one in San Diego?

Post by: Kapitalist-Pig
Is anyone up for an 1850 point game of 40k on Monday the 19th of October 2015? I can be in the store near 3pm.

Hey all, I will be available to play the 24th around 3 pm if anyone wants to get a game. Please P.M. me so we can work out the details. I can and will play just about any point value up 8000 but am looking for around 1500-2000 points. I know there is a league that starts later on Tuesday but I was hoping to try and get two games in. Let me know.
