Anyone for a fantasy game next week (16th April) 2400 points?
Or if anyone can ask Lee or Neil this week if they want a fantasy game on the 16th, please do.

Sorry Duane didn't see this until now, provided I remember to build my Exemplar Bastions tomorrow I should be able to muster 35pts. If I can't get them done I should be able to do 25pts.

Ok nick ill bring me retribution or khador up to 35pts then, c you then

Ok I've got 35pts of Menoth ready to go, 3 jacks, 4 units and a lot of potential to set stuff on fire.

Hey Alex, Can I host a Magic tournament here on the 7 of May?

EDIT: Just realised that all I need is a 8" by 4" table.

Cool khador or retribution, hmm ill surprize you 2morrow!!

Wow I've even been able to find appropriate foam to hold my army properly although I do think getting a case just for my warmahordes armies could be a good idea.

If its a friendly anyone can enter style affair then I don't see why not, however if it's a little more serious then you'll need to run me through your proposal.


If any one hears/sees Tony can you find out if he is coming tonight or at least bringing the scenery with him.

I'll run you through what I was planning.

4 Teams of 2, No more no less. The winners play the winners, and vice versa. The team with 2 wins gets a prize.
And £25 per team to enter, to pay for the prize.

I have 2 teams, and I was going to ask the magic players later.

Continuing Devil's role here;

you got a rules lawyer/non playing TO?

If the're is no benefit to the club and your not having an impartial TO, it kinds of sounds like you want permission to gamble on a game of magic. Which I have to say honestly i'm not that comfortable with as it sounds like your trying to make a quick 50 off of other members.

if you want to run i'd require the following

1) You open it to as many teams as want to enter
2) you have a clear rules set e.g which cards/decks (whatever I don't play magic) are allowed. This needs to be in written form and available to all those taking part before the actual tournament.
3) You have at least one impartial non participating TO/Referee/Rules lawyer/Grand High Magician to oversee the games and make all rules decisions.
4) Part of the pot (at least an offering) goes to the club


May I recommend the following, ask Jamie from starwind to lawyer, draw up a rules set and print out a few copies and tout it at the next meeting.

Sorry if this seems harsh but anything done has to be fair and seen as being fair especially if it involves money changing hands.

I can do that. I was going to give my change to the club anyway, But I can do that. and I'm not playing, So I will Be the Rules lawer.

Well if you do all that man I'm ok with you running it at the club

SpankHammer III wrote:Well if you do all that man I'm ok with you running it at the club

Are you ok with me setting tournament Entrance fee?

As long as you can explain where all the money is going.

I'd rather it wasn't going in your pocket

Great Warmachine army tonight Duane, I enjoyed getting a full size army on the table, getting the win was merely a nice extra.

I hate deliverers of menoth !!! No good game nick learnt a few lessons in the process but chuffed my little battle mage solo slammed your heavy jack even if he did get hit on head afterwards!!

Yeah that was interesting, glad I was able to get revenge though.

Looked through my rules this morning though I missed a whole load of stuff which would have stopped you killing me so easily.

Quick reminder for all Dark Heresy players the next session is this Monday. Sadly we'll be losing a lot of time to administrative stuff as you've all got a lot of experience to spend and I've got some things I need to take you through as well.

I thought I was up to date?

There's expereince to spend, wages to sort out, the minor matter of your collective insanity, plus some little bonuses.

So does anyone want a 2400 point fantasy game on monday?

@ gorilla,

Nope sorry, but if you remember your gk codec i'll buy it off you

@ gorilla, I'll give you a 2400 game if there are no other takers.

If any of you guys would be interested in our Narrative 40K Campaign in December in Masfield please check the link and take a look.

If your interested just drop me a pm or a post on the thread.

Thanks dudes

@ Spanky, yep i'll bring down the Grey Knight codex

@moe, awsome i'll bring my new empire to the table for the first time.

Ill be down tonight any1 fancy a game of 40k?

Ok Magic players, These are the rules for the tournament.

Magic: The gathering – Avacyn restored Tournament
Rules:
The only cards Permitted in this set are the following expansions:
Scars of Mirrodin
Mirrodin besieged
New Phyrexia
Magic 2012 Core set
Innistrad
Dark ascension
Avacyn Restored
If you only have cards from older sets, then either you acquire some or don’t take part.
You cannot represent cards. This means to bits of paper in card sleeves, No print outs, nothing.
If you are using double sided cards, You must either have opaque card sleeves or use the double sided card mark that you get in boosters.
Entrance fee, times and dates:
The entrance fee (per person) is £12.50. All money received will go towards the booster box, with the change going towards a 2nd place prize if enough people take part.
If you wish to take part, then I need confirmation from both team members as well as £12.50 on the 30th of April. The actual tournament day is on the 7th of May. Reason being for this is that the winner of the 7th of May can take home the booster box there and then, instead of waiting a week.
On the 7th of May, the tournament will start at 7:00pm, and end at 9:15pm max, Hopefully ending before then.

If you need to contact me for any reason, my phone number is 07826565257, and my email is connorwhite101@gmail.com .

Next week I will be giving out copies of this to any taking part.
