People could assist in this regard by encouraging friends to participate. It's just a better experience and success when more people participate. Plus, I like to break old records. ;)

Disorder could definitely use some assistance at this particular moment, so if you're on the fence about which side to be on, I encourage you to fall in that direction.

What was the ruling last year on R rated female demons?  Would you care to see a whole bunch of em?

Not that I've ever been able to figure out how to fight them effectively...

If I recall correctly, it was best for all concerned if the Daemons covered themselves up a bit, if only for a day.

The location I looked at today was not acceptable. The search continues...

A name alone doesn't mean much. Chase spells mine wrong just to remind me of that.

 Remember Ben "the boulander" McCloud, in the end there can be only one!

And on a completely different note 6th edition so far doesnt look friendly to slow footslogging armies... like deathwing, guess my draigo and his paladins are gonna remain on the sidelines

Jason, the Megabattle has lots of crazy options outside the normal game experience. Don't discount anything until you look at the available strategies.

1)  I would LOVE to see the Dark Star (or Dark Star + Co.) guys get together and play for Disorder on one of the 5v5 tables.  I think everyone on that table would have a blast.

2)  The venue today was lack luster for sure.

3)  I'm sure 6th ed will present all sorts of rules questions.  Fortunately, I have Sam to refer to now.  Unfortunately, I / he does not have the Apoc + IA books.

4)  Steve D has not signed up for the Megabattle yet because he has not followed directions.

5)  I love that the "Ben Boulander" thing has become a thing.  It makes me smile / laugh every time I see it mentioned.

6)  If 6th ed nerfs Draigo even I'll be upset.  I suppose stuffing him in a Land Raider or something like that would be less than ideal?

7) Imperium vs. the rest could be pretty cool.  I'm interested in seeing the allies chart and if it's any different tham the one in Apoc.

8)  The faction boards usually explode in the weeks right before the Megabattle.  It's usually pretty awesome to read.

9)  I'd prefer the Daemons not be rated R.  Whereas personally I couldn't care less about it, I think it's probably the right call for the event.

10)  I think I want to go to Electric Daisy Carnival next summer.

I meant for normal games, but i suppose i'm in the wrong forum. I guess we will have to see how 6th edition incorporates apoc/forgeworld

I am very interested in this as well.
