Event Title: Northern Invasion 2016
Event Author: Tronhammer NZ
Calendar: Events UK
Event Date: 07/16/2016 12:00 AM

If you won't come to the North Isles, we will bring the North Isles to you. 

Northern Invasion 2016 is brought to you by Age of Sigmar Battle Reports (http://www.facebook.com/batrep) and Common Ground Games. 

The event will be a 1 day open tournament with 3 games of AoS at the fantastic Common Ground Games in sunny Stirling. There is sponsorship confirmed by our friends and allies at The Army Painter, Kromlech , Afro Zombie and some Orkney Fayre has been provided by a number of North Isles companies. 

Places are limited to 32, so get your names in to secure a spot!

What's it all about?

Glad you asked. The event will be themed on the North Isles with some small characterful rules customising play just enough to make things different, with the addition of weather conditions and a free North-Isles terrain piece adding a twist that will make people think before selecting their usual list. 

The following prizes are confirmed:

Overall winner will be named Great Thane of the North Isles and will take ****** the fabled warpstone axe of Torin skullsplitter. 

There will be a trophy for the best warlord in each of the Grand Alliances. 

The best newcomer to AoS tournament play will win an award. 

The most notable deed in game will be 'immortalised by the Bards' when our guest judge Guy Haley chooses his favourite. 

The owner of the filthiest list will be required to wear the badge of shame throughout the event. 

There will be 1st and 2nd placed awards for best painted armies and generals. 

As if that weren't enough, there will be some local orkney fayre on offer too, an exclusive NI16 branded weather calculator/turn counter/objective marker (yes, a dice) and something for the spoonbearer to take ******. 

Cost: afraid it isn't free folks :( owing to to volume of prizes, the event will cost £20. I know this is slightly more than the going rate but it all goes to prizes, venue and food. 

Keen people can secure their places by gifting £20 at http://www.paypal.me/stuwest final payment date 2nd July 2016 but it would be appreciated sooner :). Please include a message with full name, which event you are paying for and whether you have played in an AoS tournament before. 

All paid entrants will be entered into a raffle an one lucky soul will get their mitts on a gamers set from the Army Painter and there will be some goodies for other lucky folk from Afro Zombie just for turning up!

More info and pack to follow but at this stage I can confirm there will be some form of Clash/scgt comp with some additional rules as mentioned above , we'll see how other events go in the meantime. It is likely that summoning will be looked at and army selections will be taken from anything live on the app or in a battletome/grand alliance book. I would like to encourage fluff and would appreciate feedback on ideas such as formations being free if only one faction is chosen (just an idea) or at least that formations could only be taken if only one faction is taken. The main thing will be to make sure everyone enjoys themselves and we have some epic games!

Throw us your questions and look at the additional info on the facebook page events section.
