Great day guys!

Does Legends have a web site? I'm curious to find out more as I'm always interested in new spots to game. How big is it?

Since all the tables at Meeplemart are multi-function and so many people showed up today it was almost reaching capacity. We had 3 games of 40k, 1 game of Mercs, 1 game of Freebooter's Fate, and some large boardgame going all at once. We had room for another 4x6 table but we didn't think we needed it at the time. If JonST spoke up we could have used it

And since you're a fellow DE player, I'll tell you about my 2 games:

I brought my Coven list and played against Marines and Orks.

The marine list was an all reserver/DS army with lots of terminators and marines. I don't have a very fast DE list to reacting to all his Deepstriking was hard. He was also good at focusing on a unit until it was dead. With my small units this was really effective. He ended up destroying me in kill points by the end of turn 5.

The second game against Guis'(?) Orks went better, although it was still a close game. I managed to stop all his deffrollas after he moved them once and just barely weathered the ork's follow up charge. With lots of KP early in the game, I then had to walk over to the other side of the board to finish him off. But his lootas and kannon took out my units as they made their way over and only ended up winning by a couple KP.

Yes... I beat Guis in a Killpoints game last week. It was close though. His bikes were the most frustrating, but he couldn't handle my speed or my blasters/lances. I don't run a particular type of list, and usually try many different combinations. Today I ran Lelith and my Talos Pain Engine. The Talos died miserably in one game and managed to Haywire hit a tank and bash a tank in the other game. Today I had no Homonculae in my army, and I also left Vect out. I have been running Vect lately, but not with any reliably positive outcomes as a direct result. I have won and tied more games than lost with Vect, but when I lose with him, it is usually a significant loss.

Legends is a great place to play. The gaming area is dedicated to Warhammer 40K, and you have no traffic through the table areas. The gaming area is in the back of the retail region, so you are separated from retail traffic. There are 5 tables and the heights are perfect for tabletop gaming. They are 4' x 6' tables (actually, one is a bit larger and we use that one at full size for 2 x 2 games). You get great 80's tunes on the radio speakers, and there are nearby food places, and snacks available at the store. We get a good turnout every Sunday, and typically there are a few of us playing throughout the week, during the day. It is located at Langstaff and Hwy 400 (just east of Weston Road @ Langstaff). We will also be starting a league at the location in the near future. Legends also has a large area for cardgame players (Magic) that doesn't interfere with the Warhammer area. There are also a few private conference like rooms with closed door where people tend to play boardgames and/or Dungeons and Dragons. Great place and the people are great too. Also, prices on boardgames and Warhammer stuff can't be beat (at least to the best of my knowledge). You should come by and check it out. I would love to take a crack at an experienced Dark Eldar player..... I have only been playing since February of this year. Lost my first 6 games, and then had a few ties, and then have won more than I have lost in the past 8 games, with some ties thrown in as well. I run only 2 Raiders and 1 Venom.

Ouch, that's pretty far for someone who lives downtown. No car means I'm limited to TTC access only!

Rythem, can you send me you're list you used in our game?

Now I just need to find the bloody cord to hook the pics up to the comp and I'm off to the races. Also, I need to figure out how to post pics, but that's step two.

Yeah not a problem...

Sounds like you guys had fun this weekend. I'm planning on being at meeplemart this sunday to test my tournamnet army on the tables there. Anyone interested in joining me?

Dark eldar elite wrote:Well, we had another gread day at Legends. More tables available than people needed. We had 3 tables going with all out goodness. Today, I fielded Lelith Hekatrix as my HQ, and she was stellar! First game, I played Styrofoam... I can't remember the end result, but I think we tied?? (or did I lose?). However, more importantly, Lelith aided her wych squad in comfortably annhilating 3 space wolf squads to keep them off my objective. It was a great game. My second game ended in a win, turned tie in turn 6, against the Imperial Guards of MoreDakka. My dark lances sucked, but my wych squad actually put the haywire grenades to 3 tanks, which was very fun!

Great day guys!

It was a great game, we ended in the 5th turn, Lelith wiped out a squad of Grey Hunters by herself in 2 assaults, and then she moved on to wipe out a Wolf Guard Squad (taking down 5 Wolf Guard all Power Weapons is not an easy feat), Unfortunatly My wolf Lord survived along with a Rhino to contest, for the Win. It was pretty intense, the entire battle was around his objective. I was running out of Troops on that side. My Wolf Lord(1 wound left) and 5 Grey hunters was all I had there for troops. Mind you on my objective I had 2 full (well rested) units of Grey Hunters that I couldn't get accross the table in time if we went extra turns.

Great game, If things work out I will probably be there for next Sunday.

theres a place by me, islington and Queensway that I frequent and these guys used to come to occasionally called heavy support. not a bad place, abit small and their boards are kept up unless someones playing on them. but its a nice place and the workers are pretty cool.

Ill be there wedensday, though im not sure if ill have my wolves, my DE, my MTG, or my hordes with me, possibly a mix of everything.

I'll be there and there should be at least 3 or 4 other regulars with 40k ready to play Sunday.

OK this is driving me nuts, where is Meeplemart?

I don't see it on the website and google doesn't turn back any hits other than the website.

Also, good times on Sunday. I played a very good IG player and we slugged it out in an armored battle royal that ended in a tie.

I also tied capture and control against DEE, definitely got to take 2x Vendettas, 1 just doesn't last long enough.

At the bottom, scroll down. It gives you directions and address.

I wouldn't have put it in the FAQ IMO, but sometimes More Dakka you just have to open your eyes a little

Thanks!

Blah, worst place I could think of to put it, I even googled "meeplemart address" and all I got was hits for Hairy Tarantula!

yeah they really dont want to be found!

I agree completely about the hidden address thing. There are a few issues with his site I'm trying to help him fix...

Sharp1011 I wouldnt have been able to get a game in anyway, I arrived later than I thought and the GF was all over me to go out and do dinner date type stuff. Upside I did get to pickup some new models that I spent this morning putting together. Anyone up for a game tomorrow at GW or somewhere?

It's very possible I could play at GW, what time tomorrow are you thinking?

Anyone up for some games wednesday at legends?

I was thinking sometime around 12 - 1230 kungfu, get in a game or two. Just let me know by tomorrow morning, only takes me about 45 min or so to get there and I have the day off, I can bring up to 2000 points.

@Moredakka Wait til you get there, the place is still hard to find.

If kung doesn't respond by about 10am tomorrow morning I'll post whether I'm available or not to head to GW (Which gw were you thinking??) so you don't waste a trip , is there any parking there?

I plan to be there on Sunday with Tyranids.

Rythm I was thinking about the GW Yonge and Lawrence, there is parking on the side streets all around it.

Anyone want to play Wednesday or Thursday this week? March 28 or 29? I am free ALL DAY, each day. Let me know.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
If anyone wants to get one game in later this afternoon (Tuesday, March 27, 2012), let me know. If you want to play after work Kungfu, let me know...

I'll be there at 12:00 to play, cause I gotta be somewhere else at 5:00.

You could always come for a game at GW Y&L Dark, face my wolves and their new additions, my list is now 2000 points.

JonST: If noone is up for games at Legends, I may have to come to you in order to humiliate your 2000 points. I will let you know.

Kungfu: Are you serious? You want to be there for 12 noon and you have to be somewhere else by 5 p.m.??? Does that give you enough time to set up your army? So, if you are there for 12, should I just aim to show up at 12:30? This time, if you arrive early, START SETTING UP YOUR MASSES!!!! he he... Okay, so please confirm that we are playing today at 12 noon.

Dark I think kung was confirming with jonst for today at gw 12, though i could be wrong. If he is i'll game with ya tomorrow at legends for 11 am. It's weird having so much time off, though it "should" mean i get a lot more painted.... lol yeah right.

OH... maybe you are right about Kungfu. Okay... so is anyone playing one game with me this afternoon?

Rythem: so we are on for tomorrow at 11? I know... I am taking way too much time off from work... weird thing is that I am quite liking it... I think I actually now aspire to become a bum!

Ok.

Wait were you confirming with me for 12 Kungfu or talking to Dark lol?

Yup I was confirming with Jonst. Sorry dark, I have a break during the day, but after work I need to head home today. I might be able to play after work on thursday. I'll let you know when I know for sure.

Alright I will be there for 12
