Infinity Challenge - 4/26

Subject: Infinity Challenge - 4/26 Tue Apr 15, 2008 1:26 pm

This is being held at ACME games on 4/26. Noon to 7pm. It is a challenge - NOT A TOURNAMENT.

We call it a challenge b/c we are all a bunch of Noobs learning to play. More detail below. You can get a demo or play with a 250 pt premade list (I'll have 3 of these available). So come out and watch, learn and/or play.

Sweet. The best part of this challenge is the lower tension than what tournements can generate.

What kind of turnout is expected for this John M?

I am the "Brian" Mr. T is Talking about!

Anyway, If we get more than Ten people that want to play, we can make more room. I have enough Pan-O to run two armies as well, as long as people don't fight over my TAG cyclops

I'm also going to be up at ACME this saturday for a while if people wanted to try a smaller game out...just send me an email and let me know! My Yu-Jing is currently on "order" and I will not have it by then, but we can play some hot Pan-O on Pan-O Suspect

Anyway, we might have some stuff to give away as well. Why? Because Table Top Gamers and ACME Games roXXors Exclamation

EDIT:

Bought just enough to try it out. By holding back on some of the "wants" it worked out pretty good. Not as well done as by Rob who stands to get away for almost 1/3 of what I'm stuck spending. Curse you Rob!

Had a good time. Many thanks to John M and TTG Brian for their endevors.

Was a little nervous getting there just before noon and being the only mini's gamer there. So it was a great releif to have the others showed up.

It was very interesting running into a number of guys from the old WoHoG and Cincinnati Scifi days.

Thanks to

Bob, Rob, George, Jereme (Dayton), Bryan, and Danny to make it out for play.

I was able to give Danny a Demo at 150 pts who promptly used some good tactics to take about 1/3 of my figures.

Thanks to Bob for a my first game against some Nomads. He broke out the TAG and Remotes (HMG total reaction) to my dismay.

I also thank him for letting me cheat like a dog throughout the game with my smoke grenades.(although not intentionally). Embarassed

I guess I just have to take my Daturazi's afterall.

Danny was the recipient of a free starter box of choice since he took a demo. I believe Rob also got a free blister of choice.

I guess it's not all bad dealing w/ us independent gamers. cheers

I would also like to add that it was very helpful to see the game played not just read the rules. I have a much better picture of the game and it mechanics. Which I like a lot. I also enjoyed looking at the different paint styles and then seeing a game played with MASSIVE amounts of terrain. Thanks John for organizing it. I know it can be a lot of work.

I also know now which figs I am missing.
