Chris Tomlin Posted May 25, 2016 Author Share Posted May 25, 2016 That's great news! I'll go through the e-mails later and update entrants, think I've seen a few payments come in, though some may be for T-Shirts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobgoblinclub Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Can't wait to join the tournament scene. Gutted I'm missing all of these events. Gotta get painting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Tomlin Posted June 24, 2016 Author Share Posted June 24, 2016 I will be updating entrants and closing ticket sales soon so that I can work on the organisational side of things. So if you're on the fence, no is the time to get involved! I will also be sorting the charity raffle over the next couple of weeks, as well as the forums be sure to follow me on Twitter @the_black_sun and listen to podcast episodes for all the latest news. It's looking like the Generals Handbook will be used for this, though ideally I want the book in hand before making that decision (which unfortunately I'm not sure will be possible if it comes out on the 14th - would like it confirmed for this event one way or another before then ideally) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Binx Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 After weighing up hotel vs getting up at 5am Saturday morning, hotel wins. Turns out there's a bowling alley round the corner too ? Just got to wait for the Bonespltterz book to finalise my list and find something for the auction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be up for a bit of bowling on the Friday! We'll see how prepared/organised I am I'll post all the Tournament details that have been e-mailed out into this thread for completeness sake at some point. Important thing is that the info is with the entrants. I do also have some questions/queries to answer via e-mail and that will go out to the group as a whole.

TDK Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Chris, quick question regarding the £10+ raffle - are you restricting it to just warhammer related items, or are other products allowed? (Got some BNIB X-Wing stuff for example) Cheers Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nico Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I'm planning to run a largely Forgeworld list. If FW don't release points on or before Saturday, could I please go ahead with SCGT costs x 20. I'll submit the list over the weekend. Any later than that and it's going to be hard to adjust. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Yes that should be fine. There was a couple of monsters I would consider modifying -/+ beyond the SCGT x20, but if you just send over your list we'll take it from there. I don't anticipate any issues and please don't worry that you're not going to be able to use your list or anything. I will be sending another e-mail to entrants tonight as it happens, I have a few questions to answer etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowboy Boots Matt Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I was just going to see if I could get a sweet grudge organised, then I remembered I'm playing Terry. Totally forgot. Looks like I'll be bring my Nerf Gun after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nico Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I'm sure no-one was planning to do this anyway, but could you include the longstanding rule (from both like Clash 1.2 and SCGT) that you cannot use dice reroll abilities (Kroak, Coven Throne etc.) on the rolls for initiative (or on any rolls for the mechanics of the battleplans themselves). They are definitely not priced sufficiently so as to include this. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Tomlin Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 @Nico Yeh we certainly won't be having any of that nonsense I've decided to hold off on sending out a further e-mail until early next week in case anyone has further queries post GH release. Please do respond to the initial e-mail with food choices though, only a few of you have done that so far. Got some great independent prizes coming in for the raffle as well. Plus sorted a couple of other bits - gonna be a really fun event I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Tomlin Posted July 25, 2016 Author Share Posted July 25, 2016 Hey, I have updated the first post with all the info that has been emailed out to the entrants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Buckler Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I'll bring a big box of terrain Chris, Steve can grab some from there. Also if there are a few coming down Friday and warm up games are something people would like, happy to open up the games club on Friday night.

Nico Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) Feeling very excited now it's this weekend. Got my suitably filthy raffle item ready. Are there going to be open lists and the draw in advance? Cheers Edited August 2, 2016 by Nico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully I have time to get the lists up on a PDF beforehand as well. Losing yesterday has been a bit of a killer prep wise though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to ask this, since Im not part of the event, Im just curious. Where in the GH can I find this? Nice event Chris, hope to do something similar here in Denmark sometime.

Nice event Chris, hope to do something similar here in Denmark sometime. Cheers @Nixon - It should be a good time for sure. I can try to grab you a page reference or screenshot later on after work, but you'll find it within the matched play section. It's only in a small passage and not highlighted as a big rule or anything (which I found strange!) @Gmac2610 - Good on you for posting your list, would be nice to see a few more of you going balls out and sharing (lists, not balls!). @Marc Wilson - The Battleplans will be predetermined by myself, but just announced before each round, along with any relevant clarifications.
