Put me down. Id really like to make this one. Ill see if i can bring out my brothers this go.

[Sir Heroscape]

@TREX , @Tiranx any other +1's yet?

[TREX]

I havent had a chance to ask my brothers yet. I will probably come up to ID falls for that weekend though.

[Tiranx]

Mandy and Ivan are both coming. So, +2 for me as of now.

Also, just confirmed that Grant will be there as well.

[Tiranx]

Boy this format is tricky can't stop thinking about armies.

Stinger X5
Torin
Eldgrim

Provides strong range with a Torin pod for protection while you engage with longer range. All the while Eldgrim grabs important glyphs.

450 pts/18 spaces


Greenscales X4
Braxas

Lots of Geenscales for muscle and Braxas seems like the perfect counter for this meta game.

450 pts/10 spaces

Blade Gruts X4
Ornak
Nerak
Orthkurik

I'm assuming there will lots of different terrain types due to the theme of the maps, so Nerak and Orthkurik should have a better chance of pulling off their terrain powers while providing strong options for Ornak's Red Flag Fury.

450 points/21 spaces

Deathreavers X4
Horned Skull Brutes X3
Urk/Skull Demon

Totally abusing the no starting zone limit while give the HSBs a great switheroo option with rats. Urk just passed and is perfect for the points.

450 pts/ 26 spaces!

Venoc Vipers X8
Venoc Warlord
Isamu

Who cares about defense when you have these kind of numbers! If a Frenzy goes off, it could be epic.

450 pts/26 spaces

...or since it went so well last tournament

Rancor X2
Siiv

Rancors are literally a one card army. If your d20 is nice to you like mine is always to me, you could eat through the hordes, heal, and demolish.

450 points/ 5 spaces (I double dog dare someone to bring this! You can borrow my rancors. I have two.)

Now you guys just have to wonder how many squads I really have and what I can bring. I am definitely leaning towards one of these armies.

[TREX]

Tatooine Hoss Army
Jawas X8 280
Jabba the Hutt 140
Greedo 30
450pts/34 spaces


Or a Deathwalker 8000 to kill all those vipers or X11 Rats and Isamu!

Well, the new meta game is Jawas. Freshen up on your HoSS characters, guys.

[Sir Heroscape]

shoot dang...that's intense stuff @Tiranx . All good armies. I'm scared of Jawas!

btw...OP updated with attendees...we're at 10 it's looking good.

[Sir Heroscape]

ADDED attendees to the OP as well as maybes. We should have a pretty good group!

[Tiranx]

Any chance the start time could get bumped back to 3:00? I can't get off work and won't get down from Island Park in time to make the tournament.

If anyone comes from Utah and doesn't want to head back that night because it's too late, they can crash at my place I have a huge basement and spare bedroom a group could stay in.

That's right...I totally forgot about that...yeah, I'll change it. We can't have our celebrity and birthday man not show for the tourney!
