We have finally finalized the information for the midwest massacre. If you have any questions you can pm me or contact the president of the Kansas City Division of F.R.A.G. his email is listed here along with the complete information for the tournament:

The full by laws and club rules for Frostreaver Association of Gamers can be found at www.frostreaver.net

Tournament link is www.frostreaver.net/midwestmassacre for full information.


Tournament Game Rules
1. Point limit will be 2000. 1999 is ok but 2001 will result in a disqualification so watch your melta bombs.
2. There is NO painting requirement. This is a change from most GT’s. We at FRAG have always had this rule and will continue to have it.
3. For rules clarifications we use in order the GW FAQ, INAT FAQ, Judges discretion.
4. Each round will be 2 hours, with 15 minutes after pairing are announced for setup/take down. If both players are ready they may start when ready. This means you will have 2 hours and 15 minutes after pairings are made, per round. When there is 10 minutes left a judge will announce it. Once that announcement has been made no new game turns may begin.
5. All games will play 6 game turns or until time is called. There is no rolling for random game length.
6. There are 64 spots available for this event.
7. Strict WYSIWYG. Small pieces of war gear do not need to be model, such as grenades or melta bombs. Of course counts as is, is in effect. If you have questions please feel free to ask a judge prior to the event. To contact a judge please post a question in the modeling forums under the FRAG rules and information forum.
8. No hand written lists. There are no exceptions to this rule no matter who you are. List must at a minimum be typed and have the point cost break down. We would prefer your main army copy to have a victory point break down for each unit to speed the scoring process.
9. If you board wipe your opponent you win the game regardless of missions.
10. The tournament will be 6 rounds, starting with 4 rounds on Saturday, then finishing the last 2 rounds on Sunday.
11. Winners will be determined based on who has achieved the most objectives in a given round. In case of a tie victory points will determine a winner.
12. It is very important you track victory points for each game as they will be used in seating and tie breakers.
13. The tournament champion will be the person with the best win/loss record. Followed by the person with the next best record and most victory points. This means the person who places 6-0 will win the champion while the two people at 5-1 will be placed based on there victory points.


Prizes and Cost’s
1. The convention badge its self will cost $5 paid directly to recruits.
2. Convention registration can be found here. http://www.frostreaver.net/forums/payments.php. The tournament will cost $45.

Looks very cool! Unfortunately it falls to close to my trip to Fire Convention.

That is a shame. You were gonna have a chance to play on my home turf finally. There will be a bounty for my head. Whoever knocks me out will receive a prize from me.

Note: You have to beat me at warhammer 40k not physically knock me out.

I'll be your huckleberry!

Speaking of which we need to get together and get a game or 2 in.

Alright I gotta steal a line from 300 here and modify it, "Haroon come and get it!" aka "Persians Come and get them!" Look forward to playing you for the championship belt. I believe it is one size fits most. We should have a picture of it coming up in a few weeks.

I use the sight on a daily basis everyday for the past few years without anything happening. I will definately look into it and see if we have any issues. Ill post it to are moderators but accessing it now and it works fine.

Good morning, my name is Adam aka Colbey (pronounced "Code Monkey") from the FrostReaver.net website. We appreciate your reporting this problem. I would like to reply that we have removed the offending "mavmor.in" code. We are also taking appropriate security measures to ensure it does not happen again. This is a new internet exploit that has recently hit several websites (not just ours), and it exploits the PHP code to inject a web-tracking code snippet. Again, please rest assured that the offending code has been removed, and we are taking security actions to prevent future exploits.

If you have any other questions or problems, please email us at admin@frostreaver.net

Thank you kindly,

Good to hear. For signing up you have to make a profile on Frostreaver.net but that is just to help track who has signed up etc.... Let us know if you have any other problems, issues, or questions.

I am thinking about this one, Tomb. Would LOVE to face my fellow team mate.

Dannygee wrote:I am thinking about this one, Tomb. Would LOVE to face my fellow team mate.

Yup, would be fun and I have placed a bounty on my own head. Have been getting a lot of PM's about the tournament. Again if you all have any questions at all feel free to message me and I will answer them or find someone who can answer them.

7 hour drive.......perhaps I will venture down If the 56th gives me a challenge!

They can give you more then that... There is only one way to find out.

I am having trouble getting to the payments page. I follow the link and even when I am logged in to frostreaver.net I click the link and it logs me out. I log back in and then it says I don't have any paid subscriptions. I really want to come down for this but the registration is causing me some frustration. To top all of that off as well my friend tried doing the same thing and he got a message saying his email was banned. I would like a little help on this.

Sorry about the trouble you're having. An alternate method is to log in, click the settings button in the top right corner. After this, on the left hand side of the page under the My Settings category is a Paid Subscriptions link. This will take you to the payment page where you can select to register.

If you can have your friend (or if you can) PM me his email address I will take a look and see what is up. As far as I know, we've never banned any email addresses, but I will check into it.

Derek here is one of the site moderaters. If the above option does not work still we can use another method. Just let us know and sorry for the setbacks.

I have been PMing him and we think I didn't receive the confirmation email when I registered or I deleted it because it might have been in my spam inbox. I just don't want to have this sell out before my friend and I can get in.

Should hopefully be good to go now. I may need your friend to PM me with his details too, but first he should make sure to check his email for his website account confirmation link.

There was a problem with the Email Registration system, but it has been resolved now. You should be able to login and make payments and use the site as normal.

I have sent 'craniumdamae750' an email seperately, and we activated the Email Registration system to send a confirmation email to your friend.

Please let us know if you continue to have any problems. Thank you.

I will be registering for the GT as soon as my friend can get logged in. Thanks for all the help, guys

No problem, if anyone else experiences any issues getting logged in let us know and we will get it fixed though i think the problem has been completely fixed as of now.

I am all registered and pumped to play!

Tomb King, do you know how full it is so far?

2 Weeks after Nova might be hard sell. I'll see what I can do

We still have a lot of seats left but we fully expect this to sell out given that some of our local tournaments reach 25 strong.

Hulksmash wrote:2 Weeks after Nova might be hard sell. I'll see what I can do

Yes, that is one of the few things we have to contend with but we are confident we can pull it off. You will have to come and try and beat me on my own turf.

There is at least 2 of us coming down from Minnesota for this event and we are trying to convince a few more to come as well.

craniumdamage750 wrote:There is at least 2 of us coming down from Minnesota for this event and we are trying to convince a few more to come as well.

Good to hear. Make sure you all pre-register would hate for you to make the drive and find yourselves on a wait list. Looking forward to seeing a group in from Minnesota rumor has it you all got some tough gamers up there.

Depending on deployments between now and then I fully expect half the seats to get snapped up by locals. With the new Games-Workshop opening next weekend I know a lot of the FRAG crew is going to be on hand plugging the event.

Where is the closet major airport?
