This is the real reason everyone is so excited Reece is attending.

Four of us big-tournament first timers will be coming down from East Texas. Can't wait to get in the mix and see what all the fuss is about.

Games up here are events that involve a lot of joking, shooting the breeze, pausing for treats or eats, etc. They usually last 3 1/2 to 4 hours for 2k points. I think we can do it in 2 1/4, but it'll feel like sliding down a vasaline cliff wearing teflon boots.

I think you'll have a good time. It is an adjustment to play without breaks, but you're Texans, so I have confidence in you.

Best news about this yet! Shot girls or no shot girls, the full bar is a nice touch.

It looks like I am going to miss this one.

My mom ended up in the hospital today, and I have to keep an eye on her this weekend.

I have no doubt that my mom is going to out live me, but it sucks not going.

I will see some of you at the Nova open. My southwest credit expires in Jan, so I might have to hit up Da Boyz or Feast of Blades.

@ Smitty0305 - We have not posted the missions. We're not going to do so. The primers that Darkwynn posted a long time ago in this thread are a pretty good idea of the missions, though.
Scoring is as posted in the rules packet. We don't have any really crazy objectives in the missions.

@ Late Lucy - Online registration is Offline, but we can still shoehorn in a few more people. Email me at wargamescon and I'll get you on the list.

If you're playing GK in the 40k GT then you'll be in good company. Including mine

@ OverwatchCNC

I bet that more than 45% will be playing some type of GK list...because I'm one of them.

The competition for the "You list is what is wrong with 40K" award is already pretty fierce, even with a significant number of lovely people not submitting their GK monstrosities for early review.

The award is actually a very nice knee in the groin from Goatboy - and who wouldn't want that prize?

I'm glad there's a narrative tournament for many reasons:

1) I get to field my Armored Company!! YAY!!!
2) I can stay away from you all crazies in the GT! Not that there's anything wrong with it, but some of us can't take the pressure of a major GT.

Especially if we can't field our unreasonably huge invesment in IG tanks...

A knee in the groin from one of the progenitors of the uber GK ?

I'll take it.
