You know what might be a great idea? Battle Reports! with Pictures! How about giving a bonus "effort" point for writing and posting a WELL WRITTEN battle report of your match (pictures would be awesome too!)? A point could be given to both the person writing it and that person's opponent.
+1 to this!  And at such small point increments, it should be really easy to do.  Even if we don't get awarded points for it, I'd still be keen on the idea.

@ Mike, are you free anytime soon for a game?  Since we're kind of in the same situation, I figure why not?  ::)

While battle reports  sound cool I would like to keep this simple as possible. If you would like to make a battle report all the power to you, have fun with it. Personaly im not a fan of typing out a play by play of a game I played in. It will get tedious for some people and i dont want to create that sort of pressure just to get an extra point. Remember this is NON competitive and friendly. Rewarding some one for going the extra mile sounds cool and all but not every one has the time and patients to do so. I would like to leave the scoring system as is.

I agree Steve. I know I personally won't really have the time to make battle reports... But it's a great idea either way.

Dear Great Steve D,
If it is not too late, I would like to join in on this with the Imperial Guard: Catachans.  What say you?

I have a squad done and a 2nd squad about half done. That'll leave 2 more squads of guardsmen to do. I haven't decided what Cadian regiment they'll belong to yet though. I just got my order of mold making material and resin so I can make molds and start casting my custom bases!

Thanks all who came yesterday for the meet and greet. If you have any more questions PM me or post here.

What we reviewed:

Let every one get to know eachother

Chad is going to make us a board to hold our score cards

I am making up score cards on thick card papper

Question came up, can you play games before the plat game period? Yes you can but it wont count for your score card unless there is an exception made for special circumstances.

Finaly this is for fun, getting a fully painted army and re-establishing a 40k community in Abington.

Going to start a "Tale of X Gamers Army Painting Blog" for my Imperial Fists next week.  Aside from Mike Do and myself, I don't know of anyone else who'd need to use it, considering just about everyone else is relatively close to BG Abington, but feel free to post pics of your army there if you find it necessary.

Hey just a question that i did not see in any posts: Do the models need to be based?/ if so will it count to our painting score?

I'm assuming yes.

Basing is part of painting. I'm replying to you King, but also pointing at the trooper.
