No one else is going? Wow, speak up folks, I want to see which of my buddies from Dakka will be there and if we will get to meet any new friends.
Austin is a bad ass city too, tons of hot girls, great weather, fun nightlife, great music, beautiful city and it looks to be a great tournament.

Texas in July. No thanks. I lived there for 5 years, and I have the scars to prove it. What's up with neat tournaments in lousy locations? The NOVA Open looks neat...but it's in a malarial swamp in August. BoLSCon would be awesome...if it weren't in Texas during Fire Ant season.* Have fun! *Actually, as I remember it, it's always Fire Ant season in Texas....

Austin's actually not so bad in July. In August and September it's pure hell. But during the day you'll be gaming and 6th St. at night is a nice temperature and fun place. I won't be able to make it but good luck to those going.

@Janthkin, yeah, Austin is more temperate, isn't it? I went through in 08 around April, and it was great.
Yeah, I wanted to go to the NOVA open as well, but two in one month is too much for the budget right now, and I had already committed to BoLScon so I will have to miss it this year.
@Foda-Bett
Make sure to say hi man, i will be there with Blackmoor.
@Hulk
Too bad you won't make it man, but I 'll see you in a few weeks at conquest. I still have a stupid amount of stuff to paint, I need to get my ass in gear.

When is the Warmachine/Hordes event and is it just the stock SR2010 rules or are you adding any other modifiers to it?

Well, unfortunately I will not be attending after all.
Starting a business is hard. And time consuming. And expensive.
So good luck to everyone and I hope Dakka represents! I was meant to team up with Blackmoor, so I know he know needs a partner in the team tournament.
Sorry to back out on you buddy, but I just can't swing a big trip right now. Wish I could as this is going to be good fun.
