IL/WI Game on Sunday: MORE NEW INFO

[Hahma]

[quote="GaryLASQ"]i'm willing to go south an hour or two if someone down there wants to host...

Sadly I'm a bit farther than that I suppose. Perhaps I'll try to get up yonder someday.

Are you all good with map tiles for Sunday Gary? Do you need my help with anything?

[GaryLASQ]

based on the current head count i should be ok. i'll probably take the map i made for the last time we met but work in some Tundra this time.

i need to PM a couple others that showed interest on the N.IL/S.WI thread to see if we can get a larger group. if so, then we'll probably need to break into two groups again and i will need you to bring terrain.

anyone attending score a castle set or two?

i might have some soon. a Walmart near me has the spot on the shelf marked for the new stuff but hasn't stocked them yet. hopefully this weekend they will have it.

i'm also on the call waiting list with Gamer's Paradise.

I got one so far that I got from Teamski in trade.

I'm really starting to look forward to this game.Josh is still making changes to his army,but I got mine.
I am kind of a robot nut, so I was pretty elated when the blastatrons appeared.Finally! soulborgs that have a chance of kicking butt!

So,yeah! I'm coming with 2 blastarons,2 gladiatrons,DW9000(maybe),and a squad of marro hounds! I don't care if saying this gives you guys the chance to counterdraft(it's not like losing would be a NEW experience for me )

[GaryLASQ]

crap. Joah played the 2 Gladiatrons and 2 Blastatrons against me at GC. i learned the hard way how much damage they can do.

[josh-n-papa]

Good! I still owe you for the snake feeding frenzy from last time

Hey Gary
How many points were going to this time 520? or 560?

[GaryLASQ]

i went with 520 again (first post) but if you want to bring a few extra figures that's fine in case others bring extras and agree to a larger army. just be prepared for 520.

langfordrocks is also planning to attend. if nwojedi and my brother can make it that means we will have the same size crowd (or more) we had last time.

so djsmith, bring some terrain again please. it will probably be the same setup as last time. one map on the pingpong table downstairs and one on the dining room table upstairs.

i'll try to have my map/scenario finished by Tue night (Walmart put out those castle sets this weekend )

the 3 house rules i like to use are:

1) initiative determined by highest to lowest d20 roll, rather than highest goes first and play passes to the left.

2) X order marker is a wildcard, instead of a bluff. still a 3 turn round where X can be substituted for 1, 2 or 3 at the appropriate time. Dund's Crippling Gaze removes the X no matter what Army Card it is on.

3) doublespaced figures can be flipped (180 degree turn on same two spaces if it fits) freely during movement and/or attack phase. i like to treat flipping of doublespaced figures as if the figure is being "adjusted", rather than moved (see rulebook about adjusting your figures during your turn).

[djsmith]

I will bring my stuff, I have a great idea for a multi-player game I want to build. What is the size of the ping-pong table again?

Is it possible for us to draw names to decide who plays on what table first? Just a thought.

[josh-n-papa]

Does anyone who is going to be there sunday need some custom bases?
I still have a ziplock bag of bases from when I was testing the base molds.There are about a dozen large two space bases and a dozen or so of the large and small single space bases.Totally free,you just have to do some light sanding,then paint them and put on one of Malechi's base stickers.

[djsmith]

I will take them off your hands if no one else wants them.

[josh-n-papa]

I'll bring them,then anybody that want's them can just divvy them up.
