I will in fact be there tomorrow around my usual time, 6:00-6:30pm, Skaven in tow.

I'll see you all there!

Reality is a cruel and unintuitive place with rather frustrating game-play mechanics.

Huge game last night... literally.

3 v 4, Forces of Order vs Forces of Chaos, 6000 points per side... across two tables.

For the actual force breakdown:

Order:
Dwarves - Empire - Bretonians

Chaos:
Vampire Counts - Tomb Kings - Tomb Kings - Skaven

The game was going well, then the wheels kind of came off.  All the undead armies were huddled together and things were looking good with buffs, then the Mortis Engine exploded while in combat with Bretonian Knights and Empire Greatswordsmen... and the Skaven caster miscast killing off one of the Hierophants of the Tomb Kings causing an army to start crumbling...

And the entire time the Dwarves and Skaven mostly just sat off to the side glaring menacingly at each other while launching artillery at anything in sight.

Still, a hilarious game all around, lots of insane dice rolling!  ;D

I also remember with all that magic there was not one miss cast!!!  It was a great time... 1 more player and we would have had a mini Fantasy tournament!

There was one mis-cast right at the end... that's how I managed to kill off our own Hierophant.  ::)

I'd like to add that my menacing looks were much more menacing and such.

Anyone have any thoughts towards a Tuesday Tournament?  My idea is that if a group of us commit to three Tuesdays in a row then we could run a three round tournament over the course of three Tuesdays.  Not a serious tournament with prizes and crap, just something for fun and competition.

any takers?

I'm always there as well. I really need to get some playtime in with the Dark Elves.
