Tyranid gathering

[Unit04]

I hate everything that I don't have (or at least isn't on my side).   

I THOUGHT I had enough gaunts for the Endless Swarm dealy, but I don't, so I won't have any special data sheets.  I'm hesitant on requesting you guys to hold down your super heavies just because I don't have any.  So I'm willing to let things fly as they are, no restrictions.  Just let me have enough targets for my gaunts, is all. 

Also, I assume we will be using v4 of the rulebook?  That is all I have.

The second sounds good for us and v4 is fine to, as for super heavy's Lets see what happen in the
battle If it is to one sided then next time we'll know better but we'll all have a blast anyway.
With all the nids on the board were bound to take something big.

[jesterofthedark]

v4 sounds good to me. 

As for the supers, well one average one is costing us 600 pts.  So ya gotta think that the amount of stuff you can fit in for that is gonna counter them.  Like 600 is what it would cost for two pretty well fitted carnies, and one could drop a titan in close combat as long as you upgraded its init.  All titans strike at initiative 1.

[Unit04]

I'm not too worried.  There will certainly be problems, but, as you said, they won't be impossible to counter.  Get enough attacks on it, and even rending creatures stand a chance against them.

I also talked to cookie last night, he can make it next week with his 3k of nids'.  Now they aren't going to be fully painted, so if thats a problem let me know and I can relay the message.  But as of now he's willing to hope in if you guys will have him. 


That will give me and paul 6000 a piece, which if I am correct is around what he wanted to field.

[Opforce3]

id want to field everything i have, which is almost 10,000. but 6000 isnt bad.

[Opforce3]

is this definately happening the 2nd?

[Chase]

Kevin and Cookie seemed to think it is on for this coming Saturday 8/2.

[jesterofthedark]

last I heard we had set the date to August 2nd, because later in the month was not going to work for the other nid players and I was planning on going away the 9th.

[Unit04]

I'll be there.

[jesterofthedark]

well that makes four of us.

[Opforce3]

next time we see the other 2, we need to make sure they know we want to do this the 2nd

[jesterofthedark]

ok, well I have informed cookie myself.  So we're good there.

The other nid player is usually down on Tuesday and I'll be there for jared's game.  So I'll talk to him then, if not him then his nurgle buddy (lee) and basically get the message across.   Now he is the Nid with the trygon. 

Who is the unknown nid player then??

Tyranids
1. Unit04
2. General Leevous (trygon)
3. Tyranid Warlord (??)

Orks
1. Paul
2. Me

[Unit04]

Next Question:

When do we want to start this party?

[jesterofthedark]

I'd say we want everyone there around 1 so we can get the table set up and assets chosen.

And aim to start by 2, unless that conflict with anyone?
