ew

Sounds interesting can get me motivated to paint up although I kinda feel it's a bit sudden tho, this is in two weeks :/ also it's during puasa that might put people off

Ha2, that's why its just 1,000 points - just trying to get everyone (including players who may have stopped playing for sometime and now thinking of coming back!) to join the fun!

Really hope to see you there!

sounds interesting... will consider it if there's a chance i don't get called in to work at the last minute...

is there a deadline as to when we're supposed to submit our list/confirm our attendance?

this sound interesting

Yup.. real nice. Dont think I can make it though. I have exceeded my gaming limit per month.

To confirm your place, just email Leon at:

leondass_88@hotmail.com

or just PM me!

You just need to bring your list along on Sunday!

Hope to see many of you there!

Are we allow to field allies in the game?

Allies are only allowed in games of 2000pts or more la

is it? i thought any points level also can as long as you have 1 HQ and 1 TROOP and fulfill the allies chart matrix.

Challenge accepted.

as in no allies for nids - really wanted to do some Nids + IG for Genestealer cults

Oh, I just wanted to consume more biomass.

you just wanna reuse back the mercenary squad right?

Carnifex Unit + Leman Russ Squadron = win!

According to Leon, yes you may!

Just email him if you need to clarify...

Looks interesting... need to organize my time to go for this... speaking of which I'll need to familiarize myself with the 6th Ed rules...

Hi all,

Last call for entries for this Sunday's tourney!!!

Please email leondass_88@hotmail.com or me to confirm your place asap!

See you this weekend, if not to join the tourney, then to try your hand at one of the open challenges (Wings of War Squadron, Subbuteo/Zeugo Table Soccer), or bunch of other games!

Thanks for the games and for organizing the competition. It was a nice location and there were more than sufficient terrain should we needed them. The Nids vs GK game was very terrain heavy.

It was also a good exposure of W40k to the public as well. Some random expat parent had a fairly long talk with me about W40k since he was helping his 10 year old son to paint up his AOBR set. Coincidentally that was between my game 2 and 3 so I was good. LOL.

Would have hoped for more playing time though but other than that it is cool.

Thanks as well to Ian (Nids), Sai Ki (GK) and Alex (Tau) for the games.

Congratulations to the winners who took home a Dreadfleet boxed set and a Special X'mas Edition Large Army Case!
