There's going to be a 25 point Steamroller this Sunday (the 24th) up at The Battle Standard in Manchester. What makes this tournament different is that all of the scenarios being played will feature the Reinforcement scenarios. This means that the lists will essentially be 30 points, 5 of which will come on as reinforcements.
I've been playing around with some options and ideas on my blog but if anyone wants to get some practice in with me this week, I'm available to come into the store!

Sure thing: www.thebattlestandard.com/ai1ec_event/warmachinehordes-ambush-tournament?instance_id=65666All the "Ambush" format really means is that each scenario played uses reinforcements, so essentially you'll be playing with 30 points. They will also have a painting raffle so as long as one of the lists you bring is fully painted, you'll be entered into a raffle drawing. It's good motivation to get some painting done, even if you don't think you'll win anything!

Here's part 1 of my breakdown of the event: steam-poweredgamer.blogspot.com/2012/06/debriefing-25-point-ambush-part-1.htmlIt was a well-attended tournament (24 people!) and was well-worth the drive for anyone interested in making the hike up there next time. I ended up placing 4th thanks to Strength of Schedule (I went 3-1 with my loss against the guy who ended up placing 1st). I'll post Part 2 tomorrow!
