Hi Guys! My name is Josh, and I just recently just joined this website, and I heard about a Warhammer 40k tournament going on. Now I was wondering when we are going to do it. Please comment with the answer
Thanks a Lot! Josh

Hello Josh, I'm Rod, I think we spoke a couple of weeks ago at hobbytown, welcome to the Forum! we're not sure yet about the date for the 40K tournament, but I promise we'll get at least a couple of date options for this weekend and we'll post about it In the meantime, please feel free to post all your comments and questions in all the forum. Everybody here is really nice, we try to keep it free of trolls

Thanks a Lot Rod, I really appreciate it! Both me and my dad are very excited for it! Also, we wanted to ask if we could come by hobbytown sometime and try a little bit of flames of war. We were hoping you guys who have played for longer could show us some things about the game! Thanks, Josh

Hi Josh,
I'm Kevin. I have been out of the 40K scene since 5th Edition, but a bunch of us are looking to get back into it. I'm also into Flames of War, and would be happy to help show you and your father how to play that. I should be around this coming weekend. If you are interested and available, watch for the weekend signups and post your availability.

Hey Josh, I'm Tom, Kevin's arch nemesis. Or one of them.I do not play 40k, but will likely be helping to run the tournament since I don't have a game worthy army for the system. I do have plenty of FOW though, and will probably be there at some point this coming weekend.

Tom I'm sure someone can let you play an army if you want. I have a decent sized guard army and working on my orks. Which probably won't be painted lol.
Also I have been working on a narrative campaign for a few months to play in the club. However I need to finish painting the terrain for it. I already have the idea for the story, 4x game boards and missions set up. I have a lot of thematic terrain and I figured id have it all painted by the spring, lol. Slowly I'm working on it.

Sounds like a fun campaign. I appreciate the offer! I am happy chilling out, painting a bit, and keeping track of pairings and scoring. Many have done it for me when I didn't feel like it, and I'm up for returning the favor.
But borrowing an army for the campaign? yes please.

Hey Josh, Josh here been meaning to introduce myself here for a few days buy laziness wins some days >.> First off welcome to the forums and I think I can safely speak for everyone when I say we look forward to seeing you around the shop. I am the 40k guy at the club, although I have been lazy with 7th, I only have gotten a handful of games in but in the coming weeks hopefully we will be ramping up the 40k at the club and getting a grasp on the changes in edition. And Tom (or anyone really) I also have stuff to field a few different 40k army's (necrons,chaos marines w/ some deamons, and loyalist SM) if you or anyone would like to borrow some stuff for games just let me know.

I think it was stated else where, but what is the points size we are doing for the tourny?

1500pts is where we are looking at, anything more specific I dont think we have hammered out yet.

it's not set on stone, but I don't think there will be any painting requirements, although we might have an special prize for the one army that becomes the favorite of the participants

I think the organizers should put a limit on the number of detachments and formations allowed, otherwise I WILL show up with TEN vindicare assassins and call it a day haha

Thats just raw, but if you want to play that way, I'll take a necron overlord, with about 5 lords, and 5 cryptecs, all beefed up with the cheesy stuff! jk! I'm not that type of guy, I really just want to play for fun!

Also, I was wondering, do we have a points limit? It would be great for me to have a pre-made list!
