Somehow I've completely missed this thread!

I'm originally from the Westchester/South Bay area. Now I live in Orange County, but a trip once a month to join a good gaming group would be very do-able! I'm excited at the idea!

I unfortunately can't make todays get-together, as I'm typing this from an airport in Florida (flying back to California today). I'll be monitoring this thread though for the date in March.

My first question would be if the group is limiting this to only miniature games, or if board/card games are something the group may be interested in to mix it up a bit?

I've also been introduced to WarmaHordes in the last 6 months and am looking forward to building a force. This seems like the perfect group to learn and play the game with.

Lastly, I own enough urban-style terrain to fill a full 8x4 table pretty densely (or split up to cover two 6x4 tables). If it's needed just let me know.

I'll also be forwarding this thread to some of my other 40k playing friends that are in the area. We may be able to get a small group together to come up.

I play

I will magnetize (now doing LED as well) your models for you, send me a DM!

Hey everyone, just wanted to thank those who came out. I got to play two really solid and close games. Hopefully we will get some pictures up later in the week.

Lormax, I know a few of us would be down to mix it up every now and then. There is often a lot of down time between games so something that can be played while we wait might be welcomed. I know a few of us play magic and I am down to try/bring some board games.

Sean, one of the regulars, has been dieing to find more warmahorde folks to play with, we also have some spare armies so if you want to try some stuff out before investing in the game you are welcome to borrow some of our stuff.

Terrain is always welcomed. I doubt we would need to use all of your stuff, but if you were willing to bring like half of it that would be awesome, my stuff might getting a little old to play on since we use it almost every time.

The more the marry in my opinion. The one thing we never lack at the church is space, we could easily fit 6 tables in the there.

Great games! I think that Josh's Fortuned Command Bikers were our MVP! They were wiped out, but they managed to tie up half the units on the board for a few turns!

It would be fun to turn one of these meetups into a mini 1,000 pts tourney, or begin a campaign series - I bet Xeno and Goat would get behind the latter.

I love both of those ideas.

Talked to Goat just a bit ago, and a Saturday in May is looking like the most likely scenario.

I don't mean to pester, but do we have an update on our next meet-up yet? I work weekends and would like to request the day off.

I'm worried the league is going dark, I'm going to contact some of the other dudes like Xeno and Bloodfist and see if we can get it back up again. Goat is off radar at the moment.

Perhaps the days of having our own hall for 12 hrs full of various gaming boards and soda pop has come to pass.

I hope I'm wrong! It was certainly one the best gaming groups around.

Dude, this is the first time in months that I've logged into Dakka.

Sadly, I do think those glory days of gaming in our own hall for 12 ours on a lazy Saturday have passed. A couple things -

Goat had a real serious personal issue going on that is surely distracting him

40k is horrible. I don't play anymore.

That said, I still want to keep in touch with you and Bloodfist and the rest. Very solid crew. I'm much more interested in playing Epic and Warmaster for now, though. Keep me posted if you manage to get anything going.

Oh wow. As soon as I post this, I look around and see that 40k 7th ed is coming out in three weeks. idegaf tbh...

Keep me posted, Thokt!

Absolutely agree regarding Goat. He'll pop back up when the time is right.

I still love 40k, it definitely needs revision as a system, but I enjoy a great deal of the mechanics, new and old. I've played a few WAAC players and had a bad time, but they've been the exception to the rule. It's easy to avoid playing allies and death star lists, I just let opponents know that's not my jam ahead of time.

Hopefully the 7th Ed update will improve things.

If you don't dig 40k anymore, I'd be happy to take care of your board and terrain!

Still using the board for Epic games... the terrain.... maybe. Let me give that some thought. It does take up quite a lot of space in the home.

Oh, I might be up for a game of 40k for nostalgia's sake once in a while, especially since I know you're on the same wavelength as I am. Let me know if you get some kind of game day set up and I might lug everything down.

Also, we gotta get that Warmaster going that we talked about.

It wouldn't be remotely nice as Manhattan beach

I would be down for that, as my 97 Ford is probably worth less than the time it would take to steal it!
