I have 2 people so far for this event. I need 1 more player for the warhammer 40k team tournament. See my previous post in here for more information. Pm me asap it is a first come first serve opportunity.

I'm the 3rd on this team. Allow me to sweeten the pot by buying the second round of beers! We need one more to get the ball rolling.

Everliving: Is Marmite an acceptable substitute? I know a local (Chicago) import store near my house, I can try to pick some up if they've got it in stock.

Oh god, I have to get into this whole dakka team tournament thing next year! THE SWAG IS GLORIOUS!

Sadly, I can't go, as AP tests are closing in and I can't skip any more school. Plus, can't afford to go. I will be watching the 40k championship on the Independent Characters though.

Wanna find a member of The Wardens of the Maelstrom? Sure you do! We're fun folks!

Just look for the nametag...

Talk about a motley crew!

But at least with those name tags you'll be easy to spot!

Those really look fantastic Brian. Now we know if no one comes up and introduces themselve's to us... it's US. Not the fact that no one knows who we are!

Your a dcm... its a brotherhood.... we all know

Kind of like when you see two Jeeps drive past each other or two motorcycles.

Yep... guess it is!

I'll be there Thursday mid day

Thurs: Hang out, free gaming. Who wants to play?
Fri: 40k Championship
Sat: 40k Team Event
Sun: Finals or Free Gaming

Thurs: Hang out, etc.
Fri: Probably hitting up Chicago proper this year; got sick and had to bail from the 40k champs last year, and loved the higher level of energy I had for the TT and socializing
Sat: 40k TT with Tony Kopach ... definitely attending with a "have fun, who cares" attitude this year
Sun: Free gaming and socializing, plus probably watching some of the finals

Not exactly roll-call but I just finished my army so I thought I'd post a pic... if you see this army somewhere... I can't be too far away.

Where is the rest of it? This just for the team tournament?

Yep, my little 1000 pt team force.

(Believe me, I wish there were more!)

Can't wait to see that in person! I followed the blog for it a while back.

If anybody is looking for pick up games/drinking, my only real obligation is the Team Tournament but I'll be there the whole time.

I'll be there through the whole event. Looking forward to it.

I may bring my necrons for some of the open gaming and something for the Crystal Brush. I know I'm not to champion standard, but I'm gonna try damn it!

Shawn G. (SoI)

@Polinus: yes and yes... just a matter of finding the time. My only real obligation is Saturday and a class or two. We should see if the hotel has a public message board or something where we can post ad-hoc events or something.

I do have a smart phone. Perhaps we should open up a special Adepticon "DCM gathering" thread where we can post requests for games or companionship??

Hurt yourself... Anyone visiting should have Giordonos.. none of that Ginos junk no but Giordonos!!!!!

I'm hitting up Manny's deli with any of the mods/ dakkaites who are with us in Chicago city on the Thursday. Overstuffed sandwiches are a bugger to find in Australia.

Perfect! Thanks, Redbeard

Darn right you will! If you went and DIDN'T bring some of your stuff for us to drool over live, it'd be a crime.

Gonads if you have the time I would suggest "Hot Dougs" best flaggra dog around, or general hot dogs I guess with lots of flavor. Downside is I would recomend you get in line around 9am during the weekdays as they pack up fast.

As far is Mr. Butcher I am running around 130-140 and mine are vets _. For those of you who haven't been btw the Warhammer Ancients event is top notch. Last year we had TWO yes TWO Slayer Sword winners and 2 more Golden Demon Winner playing in the Team event. That is something you don't see to often.
