Welcome to the Forum, this thread has a pretty large and active player base spread over most of the GTA. It really depends on where you live and how far you are willing/able to travel to game. Point levels range from 1000-2000 from what I've seen, but I'm sure you could find pretty much any point level to play with someone. What do you mean by unfinished models? I personally don't care what you field as long as it's not empty bases . Proxies and unpainted is usually fine with this crowd though as always, it depends on who you are playing against. Personally I don't have a 100% completely painted and based army. Between work, gf, and general laziness most of my armies are around 50-60% done. Best bet to finding a game is location, time, date, and see who responds.

Good luck and happy gaming.

Rythem

Thanks Rythem. great to know there are people around the GTA that I can find and play. my worst unfinished models are those with painted legs and bodies only attached to a base. but they count is normal troops without anything special. Otherwise all my models are painted to a high tabletop standard.

If anyone is interested in a game within or just outside the GTA area in early April please let me know. I'm very flexible with the time and won't mind driving to a new FLAG. I play between 1000-1750.

OR I'm up for a game anytime if you don't mind seeing a few 'red' tactical Dark Angels marine and one 'gold' Standard Bearer.

Thanks DEE

I only wish that wasn't exam week...

No painting eh? The Gobbo's may join the fight....

Thanks for the kind words (...blush...blush...) Yeah, it was fun. We will have to get it going again very soon

Well, the main places that I've seen people go here are Legends, Meeplemart, Heavy Support games and Friendly Trolls. (Might have missed some)
I think it depends which one is closest to you and have a shout out to see if anyone is free to play at that shop.

I personally think that Legends is pretty good well I'm biased since it's the closest to me, but they have a lot of terrain and have really friendly store managers/owners.

A few questions

1. Anyone know of any gaming clubs in the T.O. area? I'd like to get my game on without the Magic players vying for space.

2. Anyone heard anything about another Conquest Tournament? I attended the doubles tourneys with a buddy of mine, but I haven't seen anything recently. Was a good event.

3. Anyone played at the bi-weekly at HSG recently? How many players are they getting?

Anyway, just another Dark Eldar/Space Wolves/Imperial Guard player looking for games. Probably going to hit HSG come April for the tournament. I was gaming there at end of 5th, but found that they were opening up more and more tables for Magic - not that I ever blame a store owner for reserving magic tables- those guys are in there every weekend gaming. .

I like Legends a lot since they have an individual space for Warhammer tables, so you won't have to compete for space with MTG players.

I hadn't seen this Legends place before! They certainly look like they have space for 40k. Tournaments every weekend or every other weekend?

It was late summer last year so I wouldn't imagine we'd hear anything untill closer to the date. ASAIK it is still planned for this year (What army were you guys playing? More Dakka and I were there with a BA/Orks combo)

We played Space Wolves/Eldar. Played against Tyranids/Space Marines, Orks/IG, Orks/Grey Knights and IG/something else lol. Runes of Warding shut DOWN the guy who put waaaay too many points into a battle choir.

Hey Rythem I can do Saturday some time at Legends for 2 games 2000 points?

Anyone else is free to come so we can have an insane 2v2 ~

I'm good for saturday as well, how about 12pm legends, 2k points works for me.

k amazing~

Hey all, im 31 and just got into the game, having only played about three games with my friend over last few weeks. Is there anywhere downtown people play? Im at spadina and front, and have about 800pts of Orks and maybe 900 of crimson fists

good game with Rythem on Sat~

Just clarified some ruling stuff:
Rythem pg.9 of the BRB references to who chooses the order of the things that go first.

Edit: for the Whip coils it's the same time as the Challenges and all that crap, so the turn's player decides which goes first, but whip coils still just happen.

Good and Close game nonetheless, even though I was dumb for 1 of the games~

Welcome to the hobby! You have 2 locations that are both "close-ish" to you

Meeplemart at the other end of the city (Carlaw and Queen) they have a good crown in on sundays

Heavy Support , I haven't been there myself, it appears their 40K activity (at least on this forum) has died off n the past little while

Most of us play up at legends in Woodbridge, but a few of us, myself included, can be convinced to play at either Friendly Troll ( yonge and finch) or the GW on Lawerence

Just post when and were you are looking to play and one of us can usually meet up.

I'd be good for a small 750 point game to help you get your feet wet.

Awesome, sounds good Optimus. I have a car so I could go to legends if it's easier for you. I will prob need help with some of the finer rules as we go tho

Just call out though, a lot of people are willing to go to different places to game~

I've only been to the GWs in the area and Legends and Legends is even better than the GWs imo.

Anyway, long gaming weekend anyone?

Welcome to the hobby/forum, everything optimus has already said is true, we have a pretty active and diverse gaming group in toronto and if you have a car then you can reach pretty much any gaming store. I mostly play at Legends these days, and I'm always up for games, I do prefer 1500+ but I don't mind lower point levels for beginner games. Best way to get a game in is to post in this forum when and where you are looking to game and usually you will get responses asap.

Being easter weekend might make it difficult to get games in, I'm free saturday again, but sunday is family/gf time.

Also, I read the post you made about when lash whips/whip coils take effect vs when the fight phase starts. I was getting it confused with the tyranid faq they did for lash whips:

Q: If a model with lash whipsis attacking a model with an Initiativeboosting rule/piece of wargear (e.g. Furious Charge, an Eldar Banshee
Mask etc.), which order are the Initiatives modified? (p83)
A: As a ‘set value modifier’ the lash whip effect is applied after
all other modifiers. If the model is affected by anotherset value
modifier,roll off to see which is applied first at the start of each
Fight sub-phase.

I thought that everything that happened before the init10 phase was all at the same time so needed a roll off to see which came first, like with lash whips and banshee masks in the faq.

GW rules are ambiguous and inconsistent most of the time~

Anyway, I can let you know on Fri if can make it on Sat, but chances are I will~

I really want to do a 2V2 if anyone is down for it~

Hey guys, I am looking to get a game in on Thursday (tomorrow). That 2vs2 sounds great. I'd be up for a game at legends and we can start 12-1pm. I have to pick up my mother in law from the airport in the morning and then thinking of taking the rest of the day off to get a game in. Let me know who would be down for a game tomorrow and we can confirm the details.

Just a quick mention that Legends will be open Good Friday from 3:00pm to 10:00pm.
So if you are bored at home and want to get a game in ... come on in.
Hope to see you then.

I am available thursday for gaming as well, though i don't know if we would be able to get 2 other people there for a 2v2.

Friday might be a maybe if we do it in the afternoon.

I can't do Thurs at 12pm - 1pm still at work~
I'm probably going to be free starting at 4:30 ~ 5:30 ish.

Sounds good, I'll drop you a text tomorrow morning and give you an exact time I'll be there. For sure between 12-1, but likely closer to 1. Just need to see how long it takes to get home from airport. @Makutzu, too bad for work, skip it like me.

If we get two others that would work too, anyone else? Otherwise heads up is great.

I could play on Thursday but I only have prob 750-850 points of either orks or crimson fists.

I'd say come anyways, we can either do a 2v1, or after the first game you can play either sky or I. We can work something out either way, unless your time is limited.

Put those orks and fists together and you have 1500

2000 points tomorrow Rythem? Seems like our standard list these days.

Sounds good, what time? Only thing is i've only played three games with a friend to date so my knowledge of finer rules will be limited.

2k works for me, as does 1pm if that works best for you.

I think we plan on being there around 1pm, plus sky and I are usually pretty good with the rules though mistakes are always a possibility, so don't be to worried about being 100% on rules.
