Beerhammer is a game of 40K where you use empty beer cans as impassible terrain that you can place as soon as you finish drinking them. Someone about to charge you? Denied!

It's super fun, and super ridiculous, purely played for laughs.

It really is a blast, such a fun game.

Also, the Pub Crawl on Saturday is going to be a blast. Last year it was one of the highlights of the weekend. Check it out if that appeals to you!

There's a punchline here, dammit, and I just can't find it.

Lightweight something, Cooper & Reece are big guys, something. Cooper tried to persuade-me-in-person-to-go. Can't keep up with a 3+ range of different kinds of drinks environment. Shopping carts and doorbells. Carried like a football. Handicap for weight, blah blah blah.

Etc.

Damn it, Reece. I'd rather play you and get tabled than have to wrestle with a great set up line like this ... and fail to spike it. Hell, I'd rather play Adam Gati and lose on Turn 7 than flub a punch line with a set up like this.

Okay, no, I'd rather not play Adam.

Still, way to be a jerk, Reece. Only thing worse would be if you told me if scotch won't be allowed as a Beer Hammer proxy. ... Since it'd be from the UK, would it count as Forge World?

So much awesome for one post. I exalted and then also felt like I should press the yellow triangle of friendship too.

My Beer hammer games write up 2014:

Game 1: Move models shot stuff played a 40k game as usual and drank 9 beers and used them all since me and my opponent agreed we could use as many as we drank.

Game 2: Moved all models to objectives never shot anything or assaulted anything and dropped enough beers to kill or keep models locked behind impassable until the game was over.

Game 3: I could not play games anymore.

I knew a man who once said, ”Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back.”

I must be the only one that got charged at room booking. Wasn't expecting it from the comments in this thread. Called and was told even if I cancelled the reservation it was like 3-5 business days for a refund. booo 30$ bounced check charge because of it lol.

On the plus I guess I'll see everyone in Vegas in a few months?

No deals on flight unfortunately, no. We would have to book as a group which would take more coordination than we have at this point in time, but, I can look into it for future events.

40K champs only has about 40 tickets left! We're well over 200, do not wait!

The room block has only a handful of cheapo rooms left!

The 5th stage may very well have only like 2-3 people there, slightly under the influence. As a result, that bonus stage could be anything.

Can't wait.

Interesting. I heard a game with Darkwynn was only enjoyable while drunk. ;-) Of course, this time I don't think random paint scoring will let me jump you at the 11th hour.
