Justin is attending.

I've answered several questions of his, I have no doubt he has thought up something that will play well.

DaBoyz is one of the GT's that have great NON GT stuff to do so it is hard regardless of the shitty comp to not go. 

As for the comp system yes they were extremely lazy, it should of been done by codex so that people are able to take what they want but not be stupid about it.  Last year they had great success with no comp. 

If it wasnt for most of DarkStar going I would not of gone but I cant pass up a chance to get pitchers of Yuengling on the cheap!!!

I don't think there's anything wrong with saying what we like and don't like in tournaments.  I don't think that we should all have to just think our own private thoughts about what kind of environments we prefer, decide which event tickets to buy, and then let the organizers figure it out based on the ticket sales.  That's would not be much fun for us and also would really be worse for the event organizers since they are flying blind and have no window into what their potential customers are thinking and on what basis they are deciding to go or stay home.   I might be misunderstanding here, but I think one of the main reasons Chase is maintaining this forum is so that his customers will talk about what kinds of things they want to buy.

For those interested, I have just updated the original post with links to 3 of the 6 scenarios they'll be using for the GT.  This stuff is hot off the presses and was emailed to me by Jay a few hours ago.

Fun stuff.

These are the scenarios we'll be using for the event, obviously.

This event is still using old white dwarf Sisters of Battle codex right?  Just double checking.

If this is intended to be practice for DaBoyz, will the Rules FAQ that DaBoyz is using (Independent Tournament FAQ) be in effect?

Usually, there's a buffer of a couple weeks in place. There's an excellent chance the new "book" will be good to go for this event.

Any update on my questions above? ^^ Both answers would influence which army I will bring. 

- Definitely would strongly consider bringing the Sisters if we're using the new codex.
- If we're not using an FAQ I will continue with my usual mode of not bringing models that have controversial rules

Adepta Sororiatas Codex is legal for the event. No other codex’s or supplements released after October 21 can used.

Typhus, yeah, but that's for DaBoyz itself :) 

Sadly I will be going to DaBattlegroundz but not to DaBoyz.
