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?

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.

Looks pretty cool! I'd probably be down to give it a go!

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

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...

Anybody interested in some semi-competitive, fully painted battles? Been playing maelstrom and loving it! Also down to play scenarios from supplements too.

Ps I have a beautiful 40k Nurgle chaos army that I havent played in a year. Not interested in playing at the moment but if I make some friends here I might be up for a game of that in a couple months.

I also have a few Warhammer Fantasy armies. I still love and play whfb regularly so PM me for that as well.

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?

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.
