Wednsday July 1st. Scifi City. GW and non-GW table top

Game Date:

Wednsday July first is twelve days from this post. Not the upcoming
Wednsday June 24, which is Origins not that I'll be going but my cash
carrying emissary with handle business.

I will add alert spam reply's to avoid the problems of last time.

Place:

Scifi City. Doesn't have to be there, Yottaquest is possible and only 15 minutes farther out. I feel less stupid showing up to an empty store when it is the closest one.

Games:

• 40K: Same as last time. The Motor Pool box and some trays, one
  large pistol case, one regular sized pistol case of metals. Unless I
  get the maddening itch to field platoons. That would mean two more pistol cases and the car slowly getting more cramped.
  
• WFB: Will have my Vampire Counts again. Only pepping for a 1K to
  1.5K game. I could bring so much more but hate having to pack so much
  junk. Doing my best to pressure Nick into getting enough dwarves done
  so he can actually play and not just be a beardy target.
  
• Monster Apoc: Got a tackle box and a small box of loose stuff. Plenty of trade bait. This is the fallback game if no one else shows up and only two of us are hanging out.
  
• Infinity? Can bring the box. Still need to dump another $100 to round out my Nomads.
  
• Gorkamorka? Okay Danny if you want it I will bring it. Not going to re-read the rules and get my hopes up again unless this is planned ahead of time. Waiting longer to play is okay too.
  
• Anything else. Have allot of stuff from AT-43, Warmachine, to Warlord. With the first three games and some terrain the car fills fast.
  
• Painting/Craft. Might.... maybe bring something to work on. Gaming stores really are the best places to do this stuff.
  

Time:

We left the Oxford area ten or fifteen minutes late last time and still
made it to the store just a few minutes after the noon. So pretty sure
we'll be at Scifi City around noon again. Can make a big push to be
there sooner.

Again unless starvation (and we don't hit the food court), store is
complety dead and our game of Monster Apoc ended hours ago, or Rob goes
on a murderous rampage, then we will be at the store past 8pm again.
So late commers are again welcome.

Terrain:

Brought Mountains last week. Jungles the month before. If 40K really
looks solid may drag out the city stuff and maybe the Desert box.
Otherwise the badlands and a forrest/hills box.

Gorkamorka would require the Dessert box.

Always open to requests for those who know my collection.

Jim is still interested in playing you Bob if your are interested in fantasy. I think he likes to play 2k to 2250 lists though.

Always open for a big throw down in WFB. I'll bring enough for a 2K or even 3K game. My only limiting factor is Nick, Rob, or anyone else who shows up to play. One guy with 1k of Brets may show up.

Once any GW game of 2k or more get's going unless people start early and play fast that will be the only game for that day.

If anything any one who shows up at a gaming store really should be locked out of playing a game because of poor logistics.

I will be there to take on all comers, so it shouldn't be a problem, I will let Jim know.

This made me laugh.


So, Wed. the 1st, huh? I may be able to make that for some 40k. I can bring terrain as well. I have many buildings and rubble/barricade/craters. If interest is there, I can bring Necromunda stuff, too.

I leave for the Jersey shore (woot!) on the 3rd, so some hearty wargaming would be a nice way to kick things off.

Oh man, shame on me for not adding Necromunda to the list. Well done Ghaz.

If you are brining buildings I'll definately bring mine too. Maybe we can set up a the cluster "F" board where line of sight really does matter. If not anything Nick would be happy, my first floor walls on the Cities of Death terrain tends to be the windowless bitz so crisis suites have something to hide behind.

I'd love to go if it weren't for the fact that:

1.) I work 9-5 M-F so I couldn't ever show up to anything that starts before 5:30

2.) On that particular day I will be at a hospital under anesthesia getting a cardiac catheterization done.

One of these days though I want to get together with peeps for a paint-a-thon. A big ass "everyone brings their paints and modeling tools and a bunch of stuff to paint" party.

Just so everyone can see how painfully slow I am at painting.

pfffft... It can wait until Thursday. Prioritize, man.
Seriously... What's more important? Gaming or living. Personally, you ain't living unless yer gaming, right? Ergo... tube waits, dice don't.


Man logic.

One week mark. Next Wens at noon to close.

A salute to all those hitting Origins on the first day. God speed.

As it stands I am bringing a pile of vampire counts, imperial guard, monster apoc, city fight terrain and another terrain box if there is room.

Can bring the Necromunda stuff we have up to three people who have gangs. Would be nice if one more person was available.

If you want to save some space and maybe allevieate some possible headache, I have all the gangs and I have 5 box sets + 3 Outlands box sets worth of terrain. I also have oodles of ground cover. I can easily fill two 4x4 tables with terrain.

You can leave yours at home, if you like.

Again, I have every gang painted and ready to play w/options (extra heavies, more gangers/juves, etc.). The only non-painted gang I have is Escher, so I won't be bringing them.

If anyone is interested in playing but doesn't have a gang, I gotcha covered.



Ghazkhull

Ghaz you definatly have more box set terrain. So no problem leaving that stuff at home. My Delaques are in a small pistol case so no issue there. The only concern was reading up on rules only not to play. Gaming is funny like that.

From the matches back in college they resulted in two homebrew rules, nothing vital though. One had to do owith using toughtness instead of ws/bs mods and the other was only allowing one medic re-roll. We had a Redemptionist gang that had become immortal.

Three more days until Wednesday July 1st.

Rob has work issues so we may not see him until mid afternoon or late a couple hours until close. Bob is now a sad panda.

Nick and I are still on course for noon.

Tomarrow is July 1st. Noon. This is the last of the promised spam posts.

The car I have gottne this time is smaller. So going to be a bit tricky getting things to fit. But don't see any major problems.

I should be at the store in 24 hours of this post. Give or take 30 minutes.

Guess I'll see you guys there, then.

I'm working the day shift tomorrow.

We never found ourselves in that kind of broken hell. Immortal Redemptionists? The horror...

What we always changed was the Disarm rule. It was pretty extreme. Well, the rules are the same, so i guess it still is.




ghazkhull

Necromunda while a fun game is one that is certainly a open for home brew rules. We should should probably brainstorm this before attempting a general open ended campaign.

Ghaz that is a crazy amount of necromunda terrain. You forewarned but seeing the piles is something else entirely.

-

It was nice getting in a 2250 point game of WFB. Settlers made an appearance. I may be leaving Monster Apoc at home but it is a nice game if its only Nick and myself ready to game. The care space issue is just insane.

Many thanks to those who showed up. It's good to hang out with gammers.

This makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.
