Hey Everyone! The launch of Flames of War V4 is just two weekends away! I’ve been talking with Kevin, and would like to firm up plans for what we are doing.
Based on everyone’s feedback, I think the group consensus is we each bring models to build a LW tank list and an infantry list for a series of mini games. Let me know if anyone feels otherwise.
Then in terms of the food and festivities, here’s what we have confirmed – let me know if any of this has changed.
Redleg – Soda and Chips Southern cap – Pizza Captain echo – chili Col Sanders – Swedish Meatballs or Buffalo dip + Utensils Shaneymania – something sweet – likely cookies
I hope we can make a real event out of this, it’s a great opportunity to get new players interested in Flames of War – tell your friends!

The books and army boxes won't be out until later in the month. Only the rule books and small starter sets will be out, and with the stuff being sold out, I don't even know what Craig will have. Release Schedule

I think I'll bring just a bunch of miniatures, just a bunch of models of things I would like to try first and with rulebook in hand figure out my first V4 lists.
On the food department, I can maybe bring a box or two of those little tacos from costco, I know a few of you that really enjoy them
by the way I have transportation problems, Could anybody give me a lift to go to HT? coming back is not an issue but I wont have a car in the morning.

Rod and I built the store demo tanks today, but Battlefront didn't provide any cards, so don't ask about points...
In talking today, Rod and I realized it will be tough to do a big game next weekend, as people are going to have different availability throughout the day. I think we should just play individual games, maybe 1500 points so you could get 2 formations, but even that would be tough at that point level. Thoughts?

That sounds good to me, Kevin. It's going to be hard to plan too much with so many unknowns, but I'm looking forward to hanging out with everyone, and testing out the new rules. I'm planning on just bringing a bunch of stuff and making something out of it when I get there.

sounds great guys.... I think I'm going to bring a bunch of models because I'm not exactly sure of how the formatting is with the new rules. Looking forward to getting some good play time with everyone!
Food wise, I'll see what I can pick up. Maybe some drinks and chips?
