We have Ard Boyz Semis next weekend, but that doesn't really count.

The next tournament is likely to be a 500 pointer on Nov 5th.

I know it's a ways out, but we've had a busy summer and have got a 6 week 40k League kicking off in Plainville on Sept 22nd (Thursday).

Our Saturday schedule is very saturated through October with only 1 day "up in the air" at this point.

I would also like to run 40k Doubles sometime in Nov.


Due to the saturation in Plainville, I'd like to get something together in Abington.  If anyone has any fun / different ideas, let me know.

A doubles in Abington would be AWESOME.  Barring that, I may be up for a normal tournament that allows FW with restrictions on fliers, super heavies and gargantuan creatures.  Barring that, I could be coaxed into a regular 40k singles.

I dont care what it any toruny by BG regardless of location I will do my best to attend.  A doubles in Abington would be fun or a singles either way were down. 

I am not a fan of the FW stuff in a tourny setting however...

Any chance of doing an impromptu tourney next weekend in Abington on the 17th? ::)

The doubles tournament should still be 500pts per player

Is there some negative stigma with singles tournaments? Or do people just really love doubles?

Doubles are like having 3 organized megabattles in one day.

2500 points anything goes. (phantom should be ready in a month or 2)

That mirrors Battleground's unofficial policy as well.

I personally have more fun with the Singles tournaments, because my failures are my own. Sounds pessimistic, but remember: Daemons. Failure comes built in.
