Thanks for sharing! I already read your blog so look forwards to seeing more info on here too.
It would be awesome if you could do an article on taking photos. Your pic are fantastic so it would be cool to see the tricks you are using to pull it off.

Thanks Terry!
This year is going to be awesome. There is a real buzz in the AoS scene at the moment and i think we are still not even scratching the gathering momentum stage, in 6 months time the scene will be better than it ever was at its peak.

That would be awesome! You should come along for sure!
-
That seems to be the plan.
I think a post in the thread and a duplicated edit would work well as it keeps the 1st post up to date and also makes sense when reading through the thread.

Awesome work!

Hi Chris,
thanks for posting this.
It would be great if you could make a post with links to any of the current Canadian communities. Check out some of the other international sections to see what other people are doing.
Thanks

Ive been asked about army list submission. A LOT. Like, Really A LOT!!!!!
Its on the first page of the rules pack !!! I need your list sent in this format to this address before you register for the event.
Army Submission
Before registration you will need to send a copy of your army list to: armylists@ baddice.co.uk
Only WARSCROLL BUILDER PDF formats will be accepted with the following subject line NAME - ALLIANCE - EVENT
e.g. Ben Curry - Chaos - AoS ChampionshipsWelcome to Blood and Glory 2016
We are returning right at the end of the year to once again bring 3 days packed with Age of Sigmar gaming.
The event will be held on 25th , 26th and 27th November 2016 at The Grange Banqueting Suites in Derby, UK (this is the same Blood and Glory venue for all previous years.)
At Blood and Glory there are 4 different Warhammer events
The Championships - 2000 points, 6 game 2 day match play event, using the Generals Handbook points and scenarios.
AOS 1000 - starting friday lunchtime. 3x 1000 points games
AOS 500 - Friday evening until late. 3x 500 points games
AOS Skirmish - Saturday evening. Exact format TBC but will be using the rules for the Games Workshop skirmish events.
All events will be using a single list. No sideboard or dual lists. bring something that can take all comers in all scenarios.
Soft scores and painting scores will be included with more details in the coming weeks.
Tickets
The event is limited to 100 places with a potential 20/30 more if demand is high.
and you can buy tickets in the TGA. Community store.
A NOTE ON TICKET PRICES
Blood and Glory is not a cheap event. It never has been but in the past we have justified this by running an excellent event with lots of awards and prizes, at a great venue, with plenty of staff on had to help run the event. This year is no different but we have taken the decision to increase the price of the main championships event to £40.
With this money we will be investing into the event and future events run by Bad Dice/The Grand Alliance.
All profits from the event (and I don't deny that at £40 a ticket there will be a good profit) will be put straight back into the community in various ways (x B+G running costs, kitting out the B+G tables with game mats, and in the future supplying terrain. Running the AoS Masters, Paying for this forum and running more great events)
So when you decide to support the event (and it costs you a fiver more that it has in the past) you should know that you are also supporting my efforts to support the wider Age of Sigmar community and you have our thanks for that.
Rules Pack
Here are the rules packs for the event. Please note that these are still drafts and will remain until announced otherwise.
Scoring, sports and painting are still to be confirmed but I wanted to post them to let people start work on their armies.

AoS Skirmish - GW Rules.pdf - (This is the Games Workshop skirmish rule that will be used. Our own games, timetable and scoring will be coming soon to accompany this document.)

Venue
The event is held in Derby at the Grange Banqueting Suites.
The Grange Banqueting Site
457 Burton Road
Littleover
Derby
DE23 6XXwww.grangebanqueting.com
Make a long weekend of it?
Hotels local to the Blood and Glory venue that I can recommend are the Derby South and Derby West both less than 2 miles from the venue.
If you fancy coming to the event but think you might have a long way to travel how about driving up on the Thursday and/or leaving on Monday evening and take in the amazing exhibition hall at Warhammer World, have dinner in Bugmans and play a game or 2 of the fabled Warhammer World tables.
Warhammer World is just 16 miles from the tournament venue.

Hi,
Welcome to the Poland section of the forums.
My idea for International areas of the forums is the players for that country can use this area to promote local clubs and events and help anyone visiting these pages find out about what is happening in their local area.
If you think that this section could benefit from any changes do not hesitate to message the admin team. (Regional subforms, pinned posts to local resources...) We are also looking for moderators for each international section.
Feel free to chat in English or local languages, and if the software needs any updates to allow for international languages, again, let the admin team know.
Enjoy this section!

I'm unsure on the stars too. It's in the to do list.
I I think it's related to 'likes' but I'm unsure at this time.
The footer will get updated for sure.

Excellent!
We feel free to invite in some your locals but keep it private until the forum is announced!
We have calendar section if you want to create events for any NZ ones you have coming up.

Hi,
Welcome to the Norwegian section of the forums.
My idea for International areas of the forums is the player for that country can use this area to promote local clubs and events and help anyone visiting these pages find out about when is happening in their local area.
If you thin that this section could benefit from any changes do not hesitate to message the admin team. (Regional subforms, stacked posts to local resources...) We are also looking for moderators for each international section.

Welcome to The Grand Alliance community.
What is The Grand Alliance Community?
The Grand Alliance is new website that is the home for online Age of Sigmar communities worldwide.
I want to promote the game and encourage all the various, fragmented communities from around the world to have a central place were they can hang out.
The main goal of the Grand Alliance Community is for a Warhammer player, wherever they are in the world, to be able to hang out and talk Warhammer with not only other international members, but easily find players local to them to play games, take part in events and promote the hobby.
I want all communities of any shape and size, all over the world to get involves and help grow the game. Facebook groups can promote themselves and the awesome things that their members are doing, You Tubers can share their videos and commission painters can show off their amazing art. I want to make it as easy as possible to show off and share all the awesome goings on in this amazing hobby.
Where do I go from here?
You can Create an account then head over to the forums section and start taking part in the community. Or click here to find out more about the website
If you would like a dedicated forum section to promote your own community (blogs, clubs, other forums and Facebook groups, you tubers...) send @Ben a direct message on the forums and I will get it set up for you.
The same applies if you are from a country that does not have its own section yet and would like one starting.
Thanks,
Ben

I have to say that that you guys are my current fave Warhammer podcast and certainly by far the best of the 'NuSchool' (like NuLamiha
) of AoS podcasts!
Keep up the great work!

Every forum has rules and this one is no different.
You can find them all in our Site Rules page
But generally rule #1 is Be Cool.
After a you have made 5 posts you will also have access to a few more features like posting attachments, sending direct messages and access to signatures and avatars.
Enjoy the forums!

Hi,
The software used to run these boards is pretty modern and it can do all sorts of exciting things.
If you think of something that would be cool to have on these forums start a new post and ask for it.
No promises but i'll see what I can do!
I'm also open to suggestions on layouts and browsing the site.
Thanks,
Ben
