Desperate allies count as allies of convenience.

This is cool. O the possibilities.

Yeah, that's a cool rules tweak . Would like to hear what people bring with that change.

DA and chaos are desperate allies? I thought they were COME THE APOCALYPSE.

I thought this just meant you would not have to roll for one eye open.

What is Showcase Comic's stance on ForgeWorld models/units? Usable for this tournament or no?

You can use a FW model if it is a good fit for something else. Megadredd for a Deathdread, one of the Giant Spawns for a forgefiend, etc. As long as you tell your opponent exactly what they are, they are on the right sized base, and reasonably the same profile.

We are not allowing FW rules. We tried it, hardly anyone ever brought a model to use (despite the constant discussion), and at this point with FW no longer letting a FLGS stock the books, I don't have the easy access to rules that I used to have.

So, FW models are usable, FW rules are not.

Well that's a crying shame... folks are missing out!

Not really missing out, since in the two years I allowed people to use FW models and some of the army lists, i only saw them hit the table less than a half dozen times. Some one brought blight drones once. I remember a DKoK list showing up once. And honestly don't remember anything else.

With no players bringing the models for that time, I don't feel there is much of a real demand to use them. Endless discussions on the internet, but it seems to not make it to the tabletop.

Any limitations of fortifications?

No, we haven't been limiting fortifications.

I just ask that people really know the rules on any fortifications used, especially how the emplaced guns/gun emplacements work, etc.

Are you making lunch????

Let's be honest....I come, go 0-3, eat, talk with you, leave a winner IMHO.

Lol Hobbs, that's about the size of it for when I make it up there, too . Which I've been meaning to, I can't believe how long it's been! I've gotten spoiled with the two hobby stores around here expanding, though (Dropzone Games, and Games 'n Stuff).

What time do you expect the torny to end at?
