Weirdly the Elf-Aelf is covered in an FAQ so is fine. The problem with it is the Har Geth Executioners which no longer exist. Another part of the FAQ specifically disallows formations with that issue Hopefully Saturday they might update and fix that one Oh I hadn't realised that, thanks for the info! Fingers crossed then but I won't hold my breath, not expecting anything bar a pdf with points.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sangfroid Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Would need new underwear if they renewed the Black Orc Big mob. Bojangles the Gargant has seen the light of day for just over a year now..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about Prays and spells , do these also have to be fixed like the Traits and Artefacts for the weekend? All are normally decided before the game or on deployment.

Moon Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Hey, Just in case anyone is in need of sorting some last minute accommodation I have a bed going spare at Travelodge Central. £63 for the weekend - sharing with Donal Taylor and myself. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJPT Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Quick question for @Chris Tomlin - I've just discovered that Pink Horrors should be on 32mm bases. Mine must have been old kits, because they came with 25mm rounds. I'm a pretty casual player so I'd never noticed. I've got a to-do list ahead of Saturday as it is, so would it be acceptable for me to use some 25mm-to-32mm adapters? If not, I'll scramble to get the models rebased. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Tomlin Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 Hey guys, Whilst all the info is available in this thread (and collected in the first post), I thought it best to still put it together as a PDF for anyone wanting to download to their phones etc; http://traffic.libsyn.com/theblacksun/BLACKOUT_2017.pdf I haven't had a chance to read this thread or any new posts within it (I do not visit TGA on the weekends), but will do so tomorrow morning and will reply then. If urgent please Tweet me (@the_black_sun). Cheers guys, can't wait to see you all very soon!!! Chris 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James is a perfect first tournament opponent tbh, he's one of my local guys who only started tournaments himself a year or so ago and has really enjoyed them even as more of a casual player beforehand. Plonk a cider in front of him and you'll have an instant friend! 22 hours ago, Moon said: Hey, Just in case anyone is in need of sorting some last minute accommodation I have a bed going spare at Travelodge Central. £63 for the weekend - sharing with Donal Taylor and myself.

Appreciate you acknowledging and addressing the size difference.

Just saves a bit of time from game to game...there will be plenty of new stuff to discuss pre game as it is. On 26/08/2017 at 4:17 AM, James Ramsay said: Can alternate non gw models be used?

Ian R Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Hi Chris, looking forward to the weekend! I have seen it said on the site that Sylvaneth special character Drycha can choose her missile weapon before each game, Flitterfuries or Squirmlings because, I think, the Warscrolls allows you to use either. Do you think this is OK for Blackout? Sounds great to a Sylvaneth player like me tbh, so worth checking out. Fun will be had whatever!

Chris Tomlin Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 Hi @Ian R, Thanks for your question. Having looked at the scroll I think this would be a fixed option for the event unfortunately. I appreciate this may be up for debate, but at BLACKOUT if you could select and stick to one option that'd be great thanks. Sorry it's not the answer you would've been looking for...she's great regardless though (I'm sure you've seen her FAQ) Cheers, Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checking in - packing for the event now. Do you need those spare objective markers? I've got them if so! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
