WAR WITHOUT END

Empire Games is proud to announce its second Warhammer 40,000 tournament in our great new 4900 square foot location. Get ready for three rounds of pitched battle in Games Workship’s epic science fiction setting. This tournament will be focused on fun and fast-paced action. New scenarios! New tables! Get your army ready, because you do not want to miss this.

At Empire Games we believe that nothing beats an exciting battle between two fun players with interesting, well-painted armies. The scoring system is built to reward players who bring varied, attractive, flexible armies, as well as to reward players for being fun to play against, as opposed to taking the game too seriously. The overall winner will be determined by a composite score measuring all these factors, as well as (of course) their triumphs upon the field of battle. The tournament scenarios will encourage armies which can succeed at multiple objectives, not one-dimensional armies
capable of doing only one thing. There will be prizes for the overall winner and for the best-painted army, and there will be other surprises on the day.

Last time 18 players showed up and did glorious battle, with the evil Lost and the Damned taking home the overall trophy, and a gorgeous Deathwing army taking best painted. Will your army be next? Show up and find out!

How much does it cost? $15 gets you in and gets you a pizza lunch.

Where is it? Empire Games, 33 South Commercial Street (lower level parking lot, in the same entrance as the Bike Barn), Manchester NH 03101. Go to www.empiregamesnh.com or dakkadakka.com for more details. Or call (603) 627-4263.

When is it? November 11th, starting at 11am sharp. The store will open at 10:00am, please arrive by 10:30am at the latest for registration. Players will be permitted a peek at the new scenarios before the tournament starts, so the earlier you arrive the better prepared you will be!

What should I bring? Bring your 1500pt army built for Standard missions, dice, a measuring device, rulebook and codex, and any templates you need. Also bring three or more clear and readable copies of your army list, showing points costs for all units and upgrades. Don’t forget a good attitude, an appetite for pizza, and an even bigger appetite for battle!

If you have any questions contact Empire Games at (603) 627-4263 or at our
website, www.empiregamesnh.com .

See you there!

Just a quick announcement here in News & Rumors- the main thread with rules and questions will be in Schedule a Game.

The tourney I ran 8/26 went really well, with 17 players plus me filling in as the ringer. Overall winner was Craig Gallant with Lost and the Damned, Best Painted was Marcus Devasto with Deathwing.

Pretty good mix of armies, too. 2 regular SM, 2 Black Templars, 1 Dark Angels, 1 Deathwing, 2 Necron, 2 Chaos SM, 2 Tau, 2 Tyranid, 1 Lost and the Damned, 1 Daemonhunters, 1 Iyanden Eldar and me with codex Eldar.

Anyway, we're doing another one November 11, and the flyer text is below. I have tweaked the rules a tiny little bit as well, and will be posting the update shortly. Please feel free to post any questions you have. Gordon at Empire will be taking preregistrations; he always loves to see interest in advance. Last time we only had 8 people sign up in advance, and were pleasantly surprised by the 17 player turnout. I'd love to beat that number this time.
