Is the start time 6.00?
I really should read some of the previous posts... oh well

Also what happened on the Thursday meeting? Did you manage to change the times?

I've got some of the train station stuff, but depending if they arrive or not, I may need you to pick it up at one point. Where could we meet?

Behold!

that looks sweet! good job

So thats what you've been doing... I hope you havn't given up on the terrain
It looks great! Although I didn't know you was doing this, this is such a great starter advert compared to people who just don't attempt these things... so many terrible club adverts...

I need to talk to you on Steam at one point before Thursday too

Also the only problem I have is not mentioning the close time after 6.00, of course I don't know if the 2 hours has changed but it could bring people in the wrong way

If you gents are on steam, you can add me, my username is the same as my forum one

Good luck Tonight, let's hope things don't go wrong.
I'm sure I'll get lost at one point since Sunfield is new to me

Hey guys, there can be no games today as the hall has not been booked! There as been a problem with the booking office and the person in charge has disappeared! I'll try and sort it out ASAP I don't even know what's going on.

So please don't show up today because no one will be there XD.
I'll keep you all updated and let you know what's going on.

On the plus side this gives me more time to sort out terrain!

but once again sorry guys...we'll be up and going soon .

Bit of a late call, I was about to leave to somewhere in 5 minutes, then afterwards straight to the club.
I was ready for tonight as well. I be in Bromley GW instead, if you want to tag along (I have both armies like tonight)

I still think something's not right. The owner should've made sure everything was fine tonight... and I still finds the £15 hour for an average room that doesn't get used often is expensive for what it is... even hotel rooms for a day are cheaper when you calculate the hours.

-edit-
I be online steam and msn Yemi if you want to chat about this

Thats ok, I was going to find it a very tight squeeze to get from victoria at 5 to blackheath at 6 anyways

Blackgaze, whats the gaming like at Bromley these days?

The place is nice
Just ignore the managers
and the locals are more misses than hits

But if you and/or Yemi or/and anyone else wants to show up, that be ok. GW Bromley is a battle bunker, so there be like 6-8 tables upstairs (hopefully all day, different per week, i'm leaving early to check) so we have enough time to play battles till 9.00

Since the battle bunker is upstairs we wont have any customers or kids wandering around. Since it's summer there might be the 12 year olds, but they wont bother us if we dont bother them... like we would

and I forgot to add you on Steam, one second...

Not sure if I will be down there, I used to be a regular there years ago, but the recent managers they have had annoyed the hell out of me so I avoid the place tbh

cyphertheory wrote:Not sure if I will be down there, I used to be a regular there years ago, but the recent managers they have had annoyed the hell out of me so I avoid the place tbh

As I said... ignore the managers. Although they're not the same ones you're talking about (changed around again this year)... I think
I don't know why people try talking and getting involved with them in the first place, you're here for the games NOT THEM
and if you want to shop, buy, ignore the chit chat involved and continue what you were doing/leave

I'm going down there regardless since it's the only chance I can get to battle.

whats the usual game size and style there?

mostly competative or relaxed gaming? campaigns and stuff? just if you know that is

cyphertheory wrote:whats the usual game size and style there?

As strange as this sounds
Relaxed competative

half of the games, maybe more are reserved but the 2 who always play each other every week. But I usually play the occassional random
They tend to have annoying (comp)army lists, just we don't rush and just take our time (relax)
I don't like the regulars there for reasons I won't explain right now, but they're generally not very likeable but not on the level of "that guy". But there are nice folk... just don't expect them all the time.

I be there every week till this club sets up, so you know I be there for relaxed battles with 3 possible faction choices

-edit-

Campaigns tend to belong to the reserved players, I've never had to play one here before. The only time I would like to get in an ongoing campaign is through Mordheim, Gorkamorks (etc)
When I recently returned to 40k I went to Bluewater, and the first random player I played was playing the campaign rules without telling me; regardless to say he was more overpowered... he was also a moron in attitude and play style

-edit edit -

just leaving for Bromley now. I be there all day... hopefully

Let's hope so. I would post as soon as I have the news, but this is Yemi's (bacon) call, also we need to sort out the pay and hours. Could be wednesday before anything is said
If you have any terrain, that would help too.
I won't be part of the 2000k battle for this week at least, booked a 1000v1000 with Yemi.

Also it's good to see you had a look into this; and you're one of the few Bromley members I enjoyed playing against (as long as your Tau aint being annoying)

Also, also. I hate facebook
I rather post here

I enjoy playing against you too, just really tired of playing marines stacked with feel no pain.
would really enjoy playing a good Xeno army.

either way ill be at Bromley on Thursday if this isn't on. Pretty much equal distance for me.
Anyone up for a game before Thursday down at Bromley?

Apparently i'm too slow to play with you, not my fault my army is mass-models and you know, actually vulnerable
Also to answer why my Imperial Guard is more fun... because I use... a DIFFERENT ARMY LIST

If the greenwich club is up this week, I need to go to check it out regardless, but I might be at Bromley 12-4.00ish, and you usually arrive about 5.00... so, yeah.
It's likely I be having Necrons (Imperial Guard second chance)
Also, my Tyranids are in the works so you will get to fight them in the future, just give it about a month or so.

Hey, welcome Sorry about the craziness, I've been trying to set this up as well as a business so it's been hectic!
The club should be up and ready on Thursday, today I am aiming on finishing up the boards, so far the plan on boards is this:
Muddy, cliiffy
Open grass area with some hills etc
Urban burnt out buildings and craters (BG im looking at you for craters !)
Snowy mountainous
Lava rock etc

These are the boards that I have in the works. (if you guys want anything else lemmie know)

When they are done i'll prob make a youtube video of them all. Speaking of youtube, it would be good to get our own battlereport channel going just for the hell of it.
Don't worry, I have the camera, just wondered if anyone was interested in being filmed playing on the day.

The craters are being worked on. I wasn't going to take a photo as they were meant to be shown on the day, but I might go ahead with this soon.
They are painted grey so they can fit on any board really... though some have grassy parts.

Also I didn't think your urban board would have any complete buildings at it, so I hope we get to play on that first!
You can take photos if you want, though we're only having a try out game this week. Any future games are fine by me

-edit-
There use to be a lava world at Bromley... it wasn't fun to play on at it, way too much lava streams.

Also we're going to need a woods-terrain board eventually (or swamp/jungle), I love my Imperial Guard to try that out!

-edit edit-

Just a question to everyone reading this thread, would you mind handling 2 hour game nights for £5? How long will you keep this up before we extend the hours/reduce the pay?

Blackgaze wrote:Just a question to everyone reading this thread, would you mind handling 2 hour game nights for £5? How long will you keep this up before we extend the hours/reduce the pay?

As I said to you I will try to sort out some kind of deal with the church. However, if that doesn't happen then members will affect cost, £5 each is just the bare minimum needed for 6 people to play . More members = cheaper fee and enough money for more hours essentially....

2 hours was always the original agreed time limit and I came to that conclusion after talking to a few members and everyone seemed to agree. I think we would all like to see the time extended, and hopefully it will be.

Oh, and I figured out what happened this week. The person in charge of booking went on holiday and was replaced. She is back next week. I can book the hall this week but I will have to wait until the main person in charge is back to talka bout discounts.

Once again it's been delayed. No club this week... yes I mad

We're ready, but the place isn't. Hopefully we get a better place in the future

Sorry for the quick photos, leaving in 10 minutes
Craters for Thursday

It do, but I'm no terrain maker





Bonus feature: clipped unfinished Orks. Though not for this week

Just a reminder that we start tomorow (or today now, late posting)
Any idea how many might appear?

Id like to have a confirmation of a game before i get there, id hate to get all the way there and no game

Guys, I'm afraid it's bad news AGAIN! I don't know whats happened but now it seems like no one wants to come X_X. I've only heard back from you mesyd and Blackgaze. That makes 3 people out of said 6 minimum -_-.... as such they won't let me have the hall.

A few of you are still on holidays etc, i understand that but damn...bit disappointed.

I guess we can try for next week, i'll email you all again if we can get enough guys coming!

You guys should still come down bromley tonight, we can hype it up there!

messyd wrote:You guys should still come down bromley tonight, we can hype it up there!

I did, back home again for... this.
I can come again tonight but only if Yemi will come for the 1000v1000.

I will say Bromley's packed tonight, many apoc games going on. But we should get a table no doubt
Yemi let me know within the hour, I be checking here within

Ok just to make things easier for next week (or next time) could everyone who wants to join please comment in this board so Bacon (Yemi) can list and contact who's coming. Otherwise this is never going to get started

16 joining in the poll, where are you?

Bump.

Any news for tomorrow?
I will be working unfortunately this week, very doubtful I be there.
