Anyway, will let you know if I can finally make it. Similar concerns to myself are also keeping me from attending. That's twice in a row now, I feel so unreliable to you guys. Oh no, I've become Uriel Ventris! Don't worry I will endevour to make amends in the not to distant future (after my death oath) and I will take on those Scouts of greatcrusade08's.

Captain Idaho Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 You know, my toe still gives me pain even now. If I was a 40K model I would have such heavy bionics I would have T6. (A bionic toe is enough surely!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waaanial00 Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Despite the fact that I dont have to leave until 8:45 I am still up at 5:30. Damn!!! See everyone who is coming at the place.

We didnt see you all day. Did you ditch on the idea or were you only coming on Sunday. Sorry to GC and Alloyslayer for having to dash home early.

AJB2K3 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 as to 22/23jan I'll block out my diary for the 23 but busy on the 22nd Anyway thanks guys, despite losing to all 3 of you I did enjoy my self. Pics forthcoming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatcrusade08 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Just got home, was the best part of a 4 hour drive back, ruddy london traffic on the M25 grrr! Anyway thanks guys, despite losing to all 3 of you I did enjoy my self. we do like to give the new guys a proper welcome to the group... :) a great time was had by all, it was a little unfortunate that only a few of us turned up, but these things happen.. we made a day of it regardless.. Wans daemons are a very good army, and Alloyslayer finally got his win against me on day one... got my own back today though :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waaanial00 Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 Yeah apologies all round, well apart from Storm Bringer, as I barely opened my Marine case instead forcing people to play against my barely started Daemon army. I believe I am now up to nemsis status against Alloyslayer, dont know why but I generally cancel all his luck and replace it with bad whenever we play. In none of the 3 games we have had to date have I won by anything other than luck. Should have really played marines against AJB2K3, its confusing enough if you dont play 40K regularly. To throw daemons down at him as well must have been very confusing. Still was nice to see those that turned up. I wont be able to make it to Nottingham for the next meet, which is a big shame. However I have to say that the gaming centre in Westbury, whilst not exactly close for everyone, is a decent haunt. I will definitely be trying to get a few tournaments and special events run there in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greatcrusade08 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 yeah, next time gadget... next time! we had some good match ups, whenever i get first turn against someone who hasnt faced me before i generally wipe them out in <3 turns.. most of the 'fun' games have been where i started 2nd.. or Wans daemons which were difficult to face. i did manage to drop one of my thunderfire cannons, although thankfully it broke into its consituant parts which meant it was an easy repair, gave people a good view on how i built it :o and my scouts are still scraping bits of lyasnder off thier boots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically earlier we were discussing the fact that neither of us wanted another Thunderfire because of how much blood it takes in order to build the model, fast forward an hour or two and GC had to rebuild his.

A tidy venue and not too far for me (about an hour or so), so will definietly visit again if other events are happening there. Will keep a look out for your June UM event and hope to dig out my nids by then, so we can have some fluffy tyrannic wars games! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatcrusade08 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 sounds good, i sent an email off this morning to Lise from the events office.. im hoping rumours arent true and they wont ask for huge amounts of money to play there.. ive only asked for 8 tables this time as previous history has shown despite plenty of sign ups, numbers are always smaller than we would like edit: id like to play your SW at some point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waaanial00 Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 im hoping rumours arent true and they wont ask for huge amounts of money to play there.. See the following thread - Click me I dont know if our event would constitute the sorts of admin costs but you never know. Either way its probably good enough to investigate the alternative gaming halls. Hell my eventual plans for my Daemon army is that most of the big beasties will be non GW stock. Something I wouldnt be able to take to WHW. Not that I will be attending the next one that is but still. You never know it might even be better going somewhere else. Been to WHW 3 times now and still havent seen the model museum, cant say it ruined my gaming weekend though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatcrusade08 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 as it turns out you probably dont have to pay for hall rental unless your booking the whole hall.. this is my reply from Lise. Hallo Matt, Nice to know that you guys want to join us again this year. At the moment the 4th and 5th of June is just one of our open gaming weekends, so there shouldn’t be any issue booking a small group such as yourselves in. I’ll let the guys know about your email and one of them should be in touch soon to fill out a booking form. Thanks Lise so if everyone is happy with the 4th and 5th i can get the ball rolling with the events guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJB2K3 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Oh dear I feel so guilty :) I owe both great, wan and matt a cup of tea as I was the only one of us who errr forgot to buy a round! As to step buy step photo's - as you gave me official authorisation to steal you design I may have a go at that ! :P just got the camera to the laptop so pics still forthcoming.

Not sure whether I can bring both SW and Nids to June event but will see what I can sort nearer the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
