Da Boyz GT 2010
« on: August 16, 2010, 08:33:05 PM »
Hey all, hello from up here in the Boston/Cambridge area! I wanted to let you guys know about this awesome tournament going on in Rochester NY in a few months. I went last year with another Ard Boy, and it was freaking awesome. This year a lot more of us are heading down and I'd love to see some of the BG crew there too. Here's the post that's on the Ard Boyz forums. Check it out; you won't be disappointed.
We’re pleased to announce the latest details and info for the DaBoyz Grand Tournament. This is the fifth year in a row we are running it.

I've been thinking about going for the Warmachine 50pt steamroller event and beers. Enough BGers going may convince me...

This is put on my 40k group which is based out of Rochester NY, and it has been expanding every year. Warmachine and Apocalpyse were added this year.  I try to make it every year and usually have a blast. If you make the trip up hotel rooms are usually cheap there's not much else up there  ;D

There's a big difference between new york city and upstate new york  ;D

Rochester's pretty laid back, good bar's with cheap good beer  ;D

I'm actually giving some thought to goin. I can't decide on the tourney or the apocalypse game.

Is this going to be a big enough turn out to warrant a 7 hour drive? Also is there any talk of a group goin? Shared hotel rooms or anything like that? Just wondering.

I know last year we had about 80ish for the 40k tourney. I know the apocalypse tourney's been getting a lot of talk and they have some nice boards that are being used.

If you want to check out more about it the forum is;

There's about an 80% chance I will be there I know Troy and Rick are talking about going. It's a good time, last year we had it on the U of R campus I think it is the same venue this year.
