I think there were a few chaos players here and there

Ok btw what do you get for winning?

a trophy and cake

warning, cake may be a lie

Why would it be a lie?

.....go play portal 2

What

Or the original Portal, for that matter.

It's a meme. Don't worry about it.

But an awesome meme nonetheless.

How does the battle work how do you know who your up against

you get matched up by the organiser, so she'll call out your school VS another school at what ever table

there are three rounds.

the first round is home and away and night fighting

battle 2 is spear head and 3 objs

battle 3 is kill each other and pitched battle

Holy moly!? What is this? You guys have an extracurricular league between schools over there!? Man...where was something like this when I played as a kid. /sadface

Kk thanks

The closest thing we had to this was just an after school wargaming club. It was fairly popular, with about 10 regulars, and around 25 occasional visitors. We did orientation nights, and the turnout was fantastic. We nearly filled a 200 person occupancy mini-cafeteria.

Thats still fun

See if we had one of those stateside, we would totally wear football (and thats the football not played with feet) jerseys, and do war paint and everything. Crazy rivalries would start up, then we would get sponsorships from under armor and Gatorade, and it would be all sorts of shenanigans. Suddenly we are holding games in stadiums, and then we are receiving trophies proclaiming us the "world champions" of 40k. Then during the off season there are all sorts of trades going on, and the key player on a team tears the tendon in his dice rolling hand, so now he's out for the season. And that veteran player who has been playing well past his 40's can't decide if he wants to continue playing, so there is a huge media hoopla over that...it would just be a mess. So you brits can have the league play.

Sounds vaguely like Blood Bowl...
