RuneBrush Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) https://www.warhammer-community.com/2019/06/03/the-warhammer-age-of-sigmar-open-day-tickets-now-available/ So it looks like the Age of Sigmar Open Day is on the 20th July this year, with a small 1000 point tournament running on the 21st (using the new faster rule set). Slightly grumpy as I've managed to go to every one so far and I've visitors over on that weekend (*shakes fist at sky* why such short notice!). However if you are able to go, then if it's like previous Open Days, then it'll be a really good day out!

JPjr Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Bah. I guess that means it’s another 8 weeks then till Warcry’s released, 😫😩😫 Still on the plus side we can look forward to 7 weeks of complaining about a lack of info on it. 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melcavuk Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Page ends in a dead link for me, already sold out or did they jump the gun on putting it online? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overread Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 At least that confirms the new rules will likely be out before then (otherwise that tourney won't get going anywhere fast if everyone has to doublecheck). That said there are cures to guests coming over! Broken plumbing, medical emergencies, satnav taking you the wrong way, forgetting, acts of god, acts of dog/cat/fish/pet - the creative mind can think of a dozen ways to dissuade people from turning up. There's even the good old "Oh you meant the20th not the 207th!" And the ever popular "Oh we relocated to Warhammer world for the meeting I'm sure you'd be fine with that, see you there" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutton Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Looks like Warcry is still a ways off then. Wonder what we're going to have in the interim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EccentricCircle Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Interesting. Following the link is just getting a 404 "Data Expunged" page, and its not showing up on Warcom. I wonder if they posted it too early... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmac Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 I'm still working my way through Forbidden power, but this fairly early passage caught my attention: A furious race began between those who wished to plunder the Stormvaults for their priceless contents, and the Forces of Sigmar, determined to secure the God-Kings Holdings at any cost. Mercenary treasure-seekers formed their own companies, and Scourge Privateers led voyages deep into the deadly wilds of the realms, hunting rumors of ancient ruins and long-lost cities. These quests inevitably stirred up native populations who resented the intrusion into their sacred lands-Chaos worshiping tribes of the plains, isolated pockets of aelven Wanderers, and even reclusive hosts of Seraphon, still guarding strange ziggurats in the depths of the wilderness. So clear references to Mercenaries, Darkoath, Seraphon, and Wanderers. We know mercenaries are being expanded in the GHB, and the other three are long rumored/speculated to be coming...(well Aelves in general more than Wanderers, but some of the rumor engine/shadespire stuff recently has used Wanderer symbols, so I find it plausible.) Based on that I'm going to slightly shift my predictions for the rest of the year in terms of battletomes: Chaos: Darkoath/Slaves to Darkness Death: New army, tied to the released champion in Forbidden Power Order: Sylvaneth, Seraphon, and Wanderers. All relatively small releases, but Wanderers if it comes to pass would probably have some new models. Destruction: I'm going to stick with Ogors. There's been a lot of mention of them lately, and I think it's the Mercenary angle that's going to be their hook for becoming an active faction.

Kaleb Daark Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 add everchosen to the chaos category - that's if they don't make everything not god specific everchosen- which is my thought. My gut feeling is darkoath / slaves / warcry tribes will all be grouped under the everchosen battletome in the sense of not pledging themselves wholly to one god - and in the lore at the moment there's a lot of activity around the Varanspire as will be detailed in Warcry.

I would't put that much weight to that paragraph, as the whole book is filled with hints and informations about old and new factions, like the Ironweld or the Grotbag Scuttlers. For you're predictions I think you're spot on, but maybe Tzeentch with or in place of StD, and Kharadron instead of Seraphon. Wanderer I'm not sure. Destruction may also be Orruks united as Gordrak is mentioned in the book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So now it's confirmed , I think we'll see the last two Warcry gangs before the Open day, which should indeed coincide with the pre order. Which hopefully means the Preview Seminar will be for POST WARCRY things 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick in York Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) I'm thinking of going to the Open Day. I've not been to one before, although have visited Warhammer World a couple of times. For those who have been to the Open Days, or similar events, what is the car parking like? Is it easy to get parked or do the spaces get filled quickly?

Is it easy to get parked or do the spaces get filled quickly? GW's car park is fairly large and quite a lot of people car share (not uncommon to see four people unfold themselves from a vehicle!). However you probably want to aim to get there at least an hour before doors open, Open Day's I've been to in the past generally have people queuing from 8am (for a 10am start). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
