Cool, see you there!

With everyone swapping to the GW, guess I can show up around 1pm instead to game with amazing sandwich.

Hey guys, this is Aaron, haven't posted in a while.

Anyone interested in playing at legends tomorrow?
I'm thinking 1850? I'm feeling like bringing my Ultramarines.
Let me know.

Hey, i'm playing a game with someone at legends at 1/1:30, if you want to meet earlier at 11, we could get a game in before hand. We could also do a 2v1 if you guys wanted to combine armies, and I can field my BA's in large and unorganized numbers .

So venu change to GW for 1 then Rythem?

Nah let's stay at legends, I avoid gw's like the plague if i can. Plus legends tends to have more tables and more room to spread out, and the tables won't be contested at all.

Sure, ok il see ya 1-130

Honestly I wouldn't mind watching that game, I've never actually seen the green tide in action.

If we would play at 11, do you want to do an 1000 or 1500 point game?

We could try and fit a 1500 pt game in the 2.5 hrs before sandwich arrives, shouldn't be a problem.

Sounds good. 1500 it is. See you at 11.

confirmed

Heya,
I was thinking about stopping in at the GW at yonge+Lawrence, any room for one more? Anyone up for a game? I am gonna bring my necrons (no I don't have any flyers), I can do 1850 or 1000 or whatever.

well we're doing a 2v2 to start off with and I know optimus has to leave for a wedding so there's that as well.

Good game today with Optimus and More Dakka

Our team was really slow
Yeah we're going to try to pick up the pace next time

Good games yesterday with girshtop and amazing sandwich, those orks are really starting to be a problem .

@Girshtop: You guys still planning on being at legends at 12pm today?

Yes sir. We'll be there for noon or even earlier.

Expect 4000 points a side.

Oooo nice, alright I will prepare accordingly.

For those of you tounrnamentally inclined, here's some tips on "time."

On the back of our Conquest tournament package we've listed all the things you need to do before turn 1 and the order (roll psychic abilities, warlord traits...etc) I know I tend to forget these once in a while.

Secondly, each game is 2 hours and 15 minutes. This year to make sure games start as quickly as possible, we've included a "set up time." Each player/team will get 7 minutes to do all their pre-turn 1 stuff (including deployment.) Anything not deployed goes in reserve automatically (or is destroyed if you fail to meet the deployment rules.)

So if each player/team takes 7 minutes, that should leave 2 hours of game time, which is 120 minutes. Assuming a 6 turn game, that's 12 player turns, or 10 minutes per player turn.

For those of you with smart phones, there are free chess clock style apps available to help you with your timing.

We don't want to suck the fun out of a game, but one of the worst things is when a game has to end turn 3 because players are taking too long. We can't regulate turn time yet, but we feel it's not so bad to regulate the pre-turn 1 things.

Hopefully armed with this knowledge, you folks can practice with some timings in your mind. Good gaming!

Yeah good games Saturday, it's nice to see some strength out of the list I've built. Need to find a troops and fast attack option perhaps to make adjustments on the fly

Anybody down to play a 1000 + 1000 vs 1000 + 1000 points game this weekend at Legends?
We could do a 2v2 of other point value afterwards with no limitations except the ones in the rules afterwards

We want to try conquest rules again, we don't have to use all the rules like the time limit and stuff.

But yeah, as a summary of the rules:
FOC is basically halved.
with 1 Elite, 1 Fast, 1 Heavy extra shared between the 2 guys.

Abilities can't be used on the other army.
Abilities that affect enemies can be used for both armies.

Fortifications are dropped in after terrain.

Can't think of the other rules off the top of my head

Legends is booked for the next couple weekends I think with the mtg pre releases going on, not sure you will be able to get a table.

Bummer, then who is up for games at the GW around Legends?

Great big game yesrterday!

Hey Craig, when did they say Legends would be filled with magic guys, the next two weekends? If so, do you want to welcome back 40k afterwards with another epic sized game? Again, if so what's the biggest number you can do with your Angels? 4000? 5000? I'm keen on using all my Chaos marines.

Yeah an 8000 pt game was pretty epic to play, had a great time gaming. Pretty sure chris said that the next two weekends are going to be taken over by mtg players and that table space would be hard to come by, so you are thinking the 11th weekend for a rematch? I can set aside a day that weekend for gaming, the Saturday would probably be better so we can get all the game in without being worried about time. I've tallied my total forces, and without fielding kitted out DC squads I can comfortably play 5700 pts. I can also pair it down to any level since all I'm doing is adding all my units into army builder and seeing what the total is.

Anyone feel like a game at downtown with their new hours this week until 8pm?

Cool. Sound truely epic. Do you want to say 5700 or an even 6000? Three weeks should give me plenty of time to finish glueing and convering my stuff so I won't have to use allies.

sorry at "Meeplemart downtown" that should read. Anyone down this week? Open til 8pm

What the heck were you guys doing... lol...

I'd like to play as well, I can probably muster up 4000 points of Daemons for sure~

I can do 6000 flat if you don't mind a little proxy'in. Might need to use some models without arms, guys armed with the wrong weapons, things like that.

Lol yeah we had a pretty epic 2v1 match of 4000 pts of chaos marines/chaos daemons agsinst my 4000 pts of Flesh Tearers. Sadly I got soundly defeated but it was still a hell of a lot of fun.
