Ouch! Guess I should have read before I voted

Any weekend should be good for us, and all that jazz looks fantastic!

Minumum 400 points agreed!

Minumum 16 figures? Hexes! minumum of X number of Hexes would be better...and I suggest we make it a smaller number of hexes like say 10?

and if we are not going to require at least one range card, then we need to go with smallish maps.

Hexes take care of squad requirement...I see no reason to require the hero cards; that will happen naturally.

A must read for all 'Scapers!

OK, I'm begging for an early June date. I am completely out for the weekend of June 23rd. And after that the earlier in the month the better.


My vote is June 2nd.

Also remember that as the summer progresses the Texas heat will rear its ugly head. If you thought it was warm in the hall last weekend imagine what it will feel like by late June.

I say we move the tourney to J Gilligans in Arlington. I readily admit the facility is not as nice, but it's got more room and you can order food and beverages there. If we're not providing food, we can charge less per person, and then if you don't feel like eating Irish Nachos (because you're insane), you can bag-lunch it. They have other food, too, but seriously? Why eat something else when you could have Irish Nachos?

I'll arrange it, if people are game. The Wisingers have done this twice already - it's time for someone else to step up and do this heinous task. I can do whatever date is decided, but I also prefer early June to late.

Good point. You gotta throw a bone and have SOME range.

I'd love to be there, but June is just too soon for me to miss another Sunday, since I'm going to GenCon in August. So, I'll just wait for the Fall event.

I want some Irish Nachos. That sounds fine to me.

Ugh, I've done this type of tournament before.
Believe me once you've figured it out there's one common unit that is horrible.

I think you should make a no doubles rule for commons, otherwise you're all going to be playing the same team.

I'm all about general specific armies right now. Any interest in picking a general and taking the worst team within that general only? Utgar has several choices within his army alone. The only ones that could be difficult are Jandar and Vydar. What do ya'll think?

I've always been crazy, but it's kept me from going insane.
