The world's biggest Apocalypse game sets records!

[linnear]

Well, The Big Game was a huge success and everyone had a blast. The game kicked off at 11am and ended at 11:30pm. What was really cool was how everyone had so many positive comments about the event and how much fun they had.

 

There were two tables. The first were 18 4' x 8' tables and two 4' x 6' tables setup in a 4-legged "M" shape. Then there were three 8' tables for the unpainted models.

 

 

The Records were blown away!

 

So here are the numbers...

 

Total painted points on one table 743,230

 

The previous record for the Biggest Apocalypse Game was 382,000 by Siegeworld

 

Total points on two tables 848,000

 

The previous record for the Biggest Apocalypse Battle was 520,000 by GMI games

 

All players submitted both registration forms and army lists. so we have back up for these records.

 

We are still working on the number of minis, as we didn't ask each player for that info in advance, so not everyone had that info readily available, but it is all on the army lists. So we are actually going through every army list to confirm these numbers. But so far, with only 315,280 points calculated, we had 6,971 miniatures, a record.

 

The L.A. Results

 

Well, what was amazing was how much fun everyone had. Even players getting their butts kicked were in a good mood and having fun. But in the end, the Imperial players bested the Xenos scum by 183 to 122.

 

World Wide Results

 

Next I will be calculating all the objective points from all the locations and posting battle reports and photos from different locations.

The Big Game - Final Numbers

 

Well, it took me a few weeks after the Big Game all the numbers compiled and verified. I actually have an army list for every person who was at the L.A. Battle Bunker and confirmed their numbers, so the records are very accurate. We set every record that we were after. We kind of figured we would not beat the vehicle record, but I hear Siegeworld is after that this summer. So here are the numbers:

 

Los Angeles Battle Bunker

 

Total number of painted points on one table 739,247

 

(The previous record for the Biggest Apocalypse Game was 382,000 by Siegeworld)

 

Total number of models on two tables 864,057

 

(The previous record for the Biggest Apocalypse Battle was 520,000 by GMI games)

 

Total number of miniatures 18,592

 

(The previous record for the most minis in a Single Battle was 6,500 by Siegeworld)

 

Total number of vehicles 1,752 (Not a record)

 

 

World Wide

 

Total number of points at 22 locations in 5 countries 2,310,835 !!!
