Glad to see this is taking off. i do love me some GW, but this game is really a fun game

Just got my Stormblades based and my Defender put together. I'm defo good with 750.

However Dan needs a hand, he needs the point cost for the Beast Warjack. I went to Sci-fi today to pick up the Legends book but it was already bought.

Any help will be appreciated. Now.....for a lil WoW and then going to start some priming

I'm looking to start weekly tourneys for Warmachine begining March 2nd.

These would be at the 750 point level with a $7 buy in. Gift Card prizes given to 1st and 2nd place.

Then the last Monday of the month would get a larger point tourney with a $10 buy in.

Any thoughts????

I agree that the Leagues are a great way to go. Privateer Press has worked hard to show support for clubs and stores. IF your distributor can not help you with kits (PP works pretty closewith distributors as well) then contact Privateer Press directly. It would be well worth your time.

I \'ll assist however I can Eric just let me know what you need

The League stuff is nice, but I have to pay $100 up front to get the Starter Kit for this 5 week Tour. (for only 8 players!!!)

For Tourney's I have no initial cash outlay, and the top 2 players from the tourney leave with prizes that day, all for a small tourney fee. (for as many that show!)

let me your thoughts players....

what about if more than 8 players show up????

I mean, the kits are 4 prize ribbons/pins and 8 participation pins.

I've run leagues like this before, and I feel doing weekly tourneys are more fun.

Oh yeah, I know we can do 12-14 players in a tourney.

i do believe my response is..DUDE!! MWUHAHAHAHA

though i would recomend starting at 500pts.. first two weeks then 750 then maybe (MAYBE!) 1000.. mainly because 500 is easy to get.. starter box and a squad of infantry..

just yopinion

That is what I was initially thinking and am still looking towards that.

Week 1 & 2: 500 pts; Week 3: 750 pts; Week 4: 1000 pts; and the odd month with a Week 5: 1250 pts.

yea 1k is pushing it.. 1250.. not a good idea for warmachine.. IMHO

Yea 1000 is the biggest I would go

Not only that, each session the point value is getting larger, meaning, you have to buy specific units once this game becomes this large, to stay competitive, thus, adding the cost to the player. So it will cost you to play, and to win the prize, which is in store prize support. And this is NO pun intended.

Perhaps you should start the league at Battlebox-level, so as to draw in more people who might be interested in trying the game out before dropping another hundred bucks?

So how does this sound:

Weeks 1-3: 500 pts
Week 4: 750 pts
Week 5: 1000 pts

Remember, there generally are only 4-5 week 5's in any given calendar year.

Fine with me

DUDE I'm so into this!!!! But it's going to depend on what day it falls on or as long as you get your game in for the weeks. Monday nights are going to be my new game night until I get bills caught up and there is Sat OT available to help me do that.

C.J.,

Ypu're temporarily in luck - Monday nights are turning out to be quite happily active at Sci Fi City these days.

Last week I'm pretty sure I saw WARMACHINES being played on the terrain tables and MUNCKHIN QUEST was being played on one of the gray tables.
