@Brotherkerose

Will do!

@Mike Fox

No strict requirements, we want you to go crazy and use your imagination! All we ask is 25% table coverage and LOS blocking terrain in the middle of the table.

Can't wait to see your entry!

@warhammernut

Too bad you wont be making it, sorry to hear that. We don't have a specific Newbie event, but the Team Tournament and the Narrative event are both not super competitive, so they are a good venue to cut your teeth. We may do a 500 point tournament next year though, just to help teach new players. That's a good idea.

@thread

We are almost out of ticket for 40K! Grab em while they're hot, guys.

Reece

A 500 points or a 1000 would be great. its a fine balancing act took 28 years to get the wife to play and dont want to scae her off. she is competitive though and wants to play more. she is a painting machine though!

So heres a preview of some of the terrain Im building for you guys. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/498365.page
Its at the bottom. Its going to look awesome when its all finished, lots more details to paint on and add still. I also have a painted felt mat for the scenery, just add a table and its good to go.

I'll be there. However I'm looking forward to getting my ass handed to me due to the following:

"Forge World units will be allowed so long as they are neither a Super Heavy nor Gargantuan Creature. The most recent version of the rules must be used. This means not just the “40K Approved” units, but any that do not fall within the above restrictions."

I think this is going to have some serious balance implications for people who exploit it.

Ticket ordered.

@warhammernut

Your wife wants to play and is a painting machine? Wow, you sir, are a lucky man!

@MikeFox

Nice one, that table and your army looks sweet!

@a1steaks

Well, this will be the 4th GT we've run using FW and so far, it has been no big deal at all, honestly. They do impact the meta, but so far they have not been even fractionally as bad as a lot of folks thought they would be. The impact has been rather underwhelming, to be honest.

@Dave_Fay

Great to have you, buddy!


@Thread

Only 10 40K tickets left!!!!

Same rules apply to forge world models as normal models, shoot it, shoot it until it goes away.

I know right? I have a 100% track record against you with GK. Let's not mention those other games...

To get ready for dealing with competition like you, Dave, or Dok, I'm reading a Peter Benchley novel, White Shark , which apparently, "makes Jaws looks like a guppy." So, I'll be totally prepared to take on anybody!

Who needs new dice? Who needs practice games? Not me!

Hey Reece, How will "the hunt" warlord trait play into the BAO mission scenario?

Well, if you read the event guidelines you'd see that any bonus points earned from Warlord traits apply to the primary mission, but you clearly didn't read it, did you!!!*!$!%)!*%$_!

Haha, but don't feel bad, I get about a half dozen emails a day from people asking me questions that are clearly answered in the tournament guidelines. I don't even know why I bother writing them,sometimes! haha

Oh, and only 8 tickets left for 40K!

Any chance of you guys publishing a BAO faq ? If feels weird not having an inat for 6th ed.

I just purchased a ticket, but I'm not certain I can make it.

I also finnaly bought my ticket. Trying to get my army painted but can't seam to find the motivation. @Reece I'm going to bring my table for the compitition and you've seen it, do I have to still send pictures to see if its up to snuff?

ONLY THREE TICKETS FOR 40k LEFT!!!

@Schadenfreude

FAQ inbound, we are working it as I write to you now. Input from everyone welcome, this will be a rough first draft.

@OverwatchCNC

I can't speak for Yak, but from talking with him he has priorities in his life that take him away from writing the INAT at this point in time.

@Dok

Hahaha, we do expect a lot form you all!

@SabrX

We hope you can make it, buddy. Your Sisters are deadly.

@Levi

Glad you're coming! Zero Comp needs to represent! And your table for the table contest is going to be awesome. Last year your table was easily one of the best there.

That's is entirely understandable, and explains it.

I'm in, now I have to decide on my trusty cheesy Necrons or my more challenging and uncheesy new Dark Angels army list...

Hopefully you can make it. I'd like to see your Tau-Orks in competitive play. I think you've got something there.

Go for necrons. I think it's going to be a highly competitive event with a lot of good players. Bring your best.

Me and a friend are going Tau-SM.
Im going as a Commissar.

I wish I had my costume out here to go in. Just moved from the east coast and it had to stay to make room in the car for more important things. ITs ok next year me and fiancee might make an appearance as a Commissar and sister of battle.

Nice. My aunt is making Mine. Just got back from a fitting.
Its going to be expensive, The buttons alone cost 30$ and the patter 15.
Its Black denim with a red velvat inside
