what days do most people play there? is there a dedicated night
Thursday is their dedicated night, but you can usually get a pick up game without much effort on Saturdays and Sundays as well.

Yeah, they also close at 9 on Saturdays.
Didn't stop us from having an Apocalypse game till 1am two weeks ago though.
Clarence is usually good about letting people stay late, especially because now Thursdays are primarily being used for playtesting for ConQuest

Yeah...technically I close at 7. However, as long as gamers wants to play, I'll hang around after my shift. I live not too far away from the shop and I have no problem hanging around longer. Gasp, I can keep myself busy by painting models or playing games then!

If anyone is interested I'll be at GW Langstaff all day tomorrow and I'll have my Guard with me.
I can go up to 2000 but don't mind playing whatever point level you're comfortable with

Last meeting went alright, although it was just me and More Dakka. Both resulting with him being victorious. First game was really close, and second game he mopped the floor with me.
When and where will the next meeting be? I am hoping for a more people to show up. Automatically Appended Next Post: Bunker wrote:Foo wrote:We're doing a 1000pt starter league, Thursdays and Sundays, where every unit must be different (no multiple Kabalyte units, for example).
So far, I am terrible at this game.
With those silly restrictions, I can understand why
How many points you playing at Heroes World now, and are the silly restrictions still in place? Last time I played there, they wouldn't let me use my two rhinos, so my list was really crippled.

About the small Tourney that will be held in Brantford, from what I gather it's 1000 points, and $10 to join. I think the prize is 50/50 50% to the winner the other 50% to the club to help pay for the rent.
It looks like it's mostly for fun because I refused to go in at first, but now that it's more for fun I will partake in it. So I guess if you are a real serious tournament player it may to be for you. There will be two or 3 maybe 4 rounds depending on how much time is left.
I will try and get more info.

Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.
Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

For the beginner's league play, it's still 1000 pts, no duplicates, no named characters, until March when it goes up by 250pts, then up to 1500pts in April, with named characters.
If you just want to play regular games, there are people doing those. I played one last week, tag-team against two fellas practising for a tournament.
Also, on Monday, there was an Apocalypse game.

whens the next meeting. wouldnt mind getting together. I went to the langstaff store the other week, there was lots of players and everyone seemed friendly. It was a nice changeup from the yonge/lawerence store, although the yong/lawerence store has 7 tables not 3.

Ugh. Guess I won't be there till April, unless someone wants to schedule a game ignoring those silly restrictions.
I am good for March 5th.

By car (from the nearest intersection to me, which is about 500 feet from the 401):

By TTC:
Go to either Wilson or York Mills Station, get on the 165 D and get off at Langstaff. Walk in towards the Cora's. GW is right next door. Also remember that you'll need to pay extra fare north of Steeles.
If you're going to be taking transit, I can meet you at Wilson station so you don't get lost.

Oh, I might as well mention this here: If anyone has the front Lascannon from the Leman Russ/Demolisher kits, I'll gladly trade/buy them from you. Just let me know what you need and I can most likely get it.

Alright. I have a 1750 list written up, if you want to play that. I guess I'll just ask around who's from dakka, although I know a lot of people at Langstaff. Maybe we've met before.
I'll try and be there by 10am, before the campaign starts.

Just a reminder, the meetup is this Saturday, March 5th, at GW Langstaff Square
I'll be bringing 1750, but can build more or less depending on what people want to play.
I'm also selling my Space Marine army, either as a whole or in pieces depending. If you;re looking for anything specific, feel free to PM me and I can bring it up with me.

Just a reminder that the meetup is this Saturday, March 5th.
I'm going to be there around 11, but I understand there is a campaign or something that is going to be using the tables from 12-1pm, so hopefully we can claim a couple after then.
