But I'm already starting to playtest some armies, so I need to know what you guys want to do for points.
As far as points go I'd be cool with anything from 400 to 550, (well, 300 could be fun too).

I'd be okay with Marvel as long as we're keeping things under 500 points. If have to play against SS or Hulk + Kelda, I dont' want to see much else in that army.

I don't need no instructions to know how to rock.

Re: SoCal Slaughter

I'm fine with 520 points but against Marvel. I've never played them and don't know anyone that owns them.
I don't know about the number of armies though, that could be interesting.
Should we use the same maps from last year?

I'd say no to at least some of them. Ember Canyon Road was pretty unpopular if I remember correctly, melee armies stood no chance and range vs range battles degenerate into: OM1 climb hill and shoot, OM2 shoot, OM3 gfo, repeat.

I personally wasn't a fan of Embattled Fen. If we use glyphs this year I wouldn't be opposed to seeing it, but when you're playing without the glyphs that map is all about the choke point on the "embattled" side and not very fun to play.

But I suppose the maps we'll see will mostly be chosen by the poeple that bring them.

Firstly, I say no marvel and 520. And I don't like either of those maps myself. I can bring Ticalla sunrise or Swamp thing. And I'm a fan of Highways and Dieways and Badru Valley if anyone wants to bring those.

Re: SoCal Slaughter

500 to 520 sounds just fine to me and I could do without Marvel, sorry X.

I'll decide on what maps to bring. Man, I loved Ember Canyon but I won't do that to you Xn.

Re: SoCal Slaughter

Fine, fine, no Marvel. I've never understood why people are always so against it, but that's fine. I probably wouldn't have used any Marvel figs anyways, I just always feel weird discriminating against them. It's the way Cap looks at me, I think. I feel unpatriotic or something.

Oh, Ghod yes, I despise that map.

Well, I think that on account of it being an official tournament type event people should have the right to give input on the maps.

Leaning more and more towards 520pts, it looks like ... I'll update the first post again.

EDIT: Done. Hivelord, I put you down for Ticalla Sunrise. Roland, did you mean you and your +2 are a maybe, or you're a definite and your +2 are maybes (I assumed the former)?

Re: SoCal Slaughter

Not bad. We're up to 18 possibles, but I'm sure we really are over 20. The Simi Knights haven't chimed in yet, including Runehardt, so that should be about another 4 or so there. There's also some SoCal regulars that have been conspicuously absent. Here's hoping they drop in soon.

Looks like its going to be good. I'll peruse the tournie map threads and pick one or two.

Well, I never played on that map. I just remember hearing a bit of complaining from other players. Embatled Fen however is a personal complaint. Some maps just need the glyphs.

Am I correct in assuming that there will be no glyphs this year? And are we final on 520?

I don't need no instructions to know how to rock.

I am neutral on glyphs, so either way.
