Apocalypse game and the Caddywampus Tourney

We need to have a huge Apocalypse game soon. I'm talking mega battle action here.

What days are good? I'm thinking a Saturday afternoon.

Also, I came up with something pretty wild.

We should have a tournament or mini-tournament where everybody prepares an army, puts it on the table, and then we shuffle players. I suspect this would result in hilarity. Also people would get a chance to mix things up a little without spending $1000.

What do you think?

I would love to do an Apocalypse game. I was actually thinking of trying to set one up over the weekend of my birthday (Feb 22), Saturday and Sunday, as Eric at SciFi City said that if we got there at opening on Sunday we could play through Saturday, then come back in on Sunday and finish it off. I bet we could even ask him if it were ok to move the tables around a little bit and make a really wide table instead of a really long one too....

I like the idea of shuffling players too

I would LOVE to throw down on an Apoc game. I was actually thinking about talking to Eric about setting one up. I set up a MASSIVE game many years ago at Comic Book World when Eric worked there. Sadly, I work overnight Saturdays, 6pm to 6am, so that is a bad day for me. I am good for a Sunday game though!

I thoroughly love the Apoc system. Everything about it. This is the type of 40k I have been looking for for more than a decade. I used to play Epic back in the day and I always wanted to translate that into 40k scale (mostly so I can use my titans!!!).

Since Apoc came out, I have been on a pretty massive arms race. I have amassed about 20k points for my Eldar now. This includes 3 titans...
In addition to beefing up my Eldar, I have also been on a rampage increasing my Apoc-worthy terrain. I have several very large buildings, craters, blockades, and a fledgling road system made. I can easily deck out a 4x8 table so that no table surface shows...

In fact, I am currently sidetracked with making my "behind enemy lines" objective: a downed Vyper crew.


So, if I can, I would LOVE to come and play in an Apoc game. If there's advanced notice, I could probably get somebody to cover for me. Worst case scenario, I suppose I could bring my terrain up and let you guys use it for the game.

I wouldnt mind getting in on this either

ACME Games has an Apocalypse game scheduled for January 18th. It's supposed to start at noon (for setup) and turn one should kick off around 1:00 PM.

I believe the person running it said that people should bring up forces that are in multiples of 2500 points (so 2500, 5000, 7500, etc.). The guys who play in these events try to take "themed" armies, so trying to break the game is frowned upon. It will last until it lasts. Last time it was around 10:00 PM or so.

ACME's doing a monthly Apoc game on one Sunday each month, but the days haven't been consistent. You can always call the store and find out more information.
