Battleground Summer 40k League Rules (Starts June 24th, 2010)

[Achillius]

An Urban League,
           Not my preferred combat zone... Oh well once more unto the breach...

[Moosifer]

I will be joining in the festivities

[Chase]

I will not be putting names down on the registration sheet until we receive payment for the League.

Feel free to call and use a card to pay if you can't make it down to the store to sign up.

[Grand Master Steve]

since my schedual is as predictable as New england weather what if I cant always make thursday nights? Ide like to join but I dont want to committ to something I can not always make. Keep your comittments is my Motto. :sigh: just the matter of trying to keep my comitments of stuff I do saturdays now.

[Chase]

We are going to ask people to be there at roughly 630pm on Thursday nights.  Other than the first week, I don't think our little meeting will take much longer than 15 min.

Players will not be required to play on Thursday night.

They tend to be under powered, over point valued and over themed.

Next time I'm at the store, I show you what I mean when it comes to the guard lists.

[skavengear]

sure thing rich when you gonna be down?

i think im stuck at 2000 for this event. also what will be the status on the steveD-headache cannon for this campaign? blast or railgun?

[Chase]

Blast, especially since I doubt anyone really cares.

[Khornagaunt]

Oooh... this looks like a lot of fun, but alas, I am Boston-bound this summer. I really wish I could join, but I can't make it down even every other Thursday, let alone every one.
But... what if I did one up here at Panda? Would you guys be insulted if we/I adopted a similar set up, and then perhaps ran a sister league over here? And then maybe, just maybe, the two leagues have an Apocalypse battle at the end of the summer to see which league is da best?

[Chase]

You're certainly free to do whatever you please, Allan.  I don't know if I can commit to organizing a joint-effort megabattle though.  If things go according to plan I don't anticipate having a whole lot of free/extra time come August.

In fact, I don't know how much I like the idea of pitting two stores against each other.  I don't think it can do anything good for the community in the area.  Playing together is great.  Playing against each other... not so much...

Again though, feel free to do/organize anything you'd like.

[Khornagaunt]

True, true... that could become decisive, and I'd hate to have as an Ard Boy against BG. I'd feel like a traitor. So, disregard that last part about the megabattle. But maybe for those interested, a more casual, less stress inducing Apocalypse game could be arranged between and by any willing players at the end of the league. Of course, this is all just speculation at this point, so we'll see how it is received up here. Either way, have a great time guys and go crush some Imperial scum!

[Chase]

i think that there should be a points limit that everyone plays that week, or something like that, because more points (fortifying) in a 1000 point game is a lot better than that same amount of extra points in a 2500 point game

Which is why it's on the two people playing to figure it out, Bry.  I don't think people are going to be strong-arming anyone into playing at a certain, low amount.

If you agree to a 1000 point game in an area your opponent has fortified, that's on you.  I'd prefer to not have to regulate that.

[skavengear]

awesome! this just made me sooooo happy 

blasty is back. 

i think that the agreeing of points is better, his way pros can have their 5000 point armies battle but the total noobs with only 1100 points can still feel like they participated in th same game. also, 100 points isnt very much of an advantage in alot of games, it affords a small raw vehicle or a small squad.

for example most people will usually run around 2000 points, which means they should be able to handle 100 points

[Grand Master Steve]

I think ide like to Enter the 4th company but its the matter of me not wanting to committ something I cant 100% gaurantee i can show up to every week to do my move etc.
