Annual Megabattle thread of dooom.

[General Leevous]

To basically cllarify for everyone who is inquiring about what they can use, in apocalypse you can basically do whatever you want as long as you pay the points for it. There's no force org chart so you could run 50 chaplains if you wanted.. you could also run orks with inducted dark eldar if you wanted. I hope this clarifies any questions as to what you are restricted to or what not. 

[jesterofthedark]

ladies and gentlemen, a ginger just dropped knowledge on your heads.  I think this is one of the signs of the end of times.

[The_Chef]

You can just give more points to Rob... and he'll bring another titan. 

  Or any of us for that matter, I could bring more terminators or a baneblade. . I'm sure guard players have plenty of tanks.

[Achillius]

Yeah, just make sure it has roughly similar dimensions and it is relatively obvious it is what it is.  When you can't tell the front armor from the back it makes the game a bit tedious. 

Ignore him, you boys get enough Toys without stealing from the emperor. If you play Demons you just have to bring  tons and tons of small squishy things, led by a fair number of ridiculously ugly not so squishy things... now that's the real deal... er Honest

You know, all chaos warhounds and reavers are essentially possessed by daemons.  We took em when all the smart people fled from the false emperor's lies.

[Seth]

if its a deamon it would proboly be more likely to be a gargantuan creature then something with an armour value.

[the_trooper]

I think you just closed your eyes and turned the page when you came across soulgrinders and defilers. 

[General Leevous]

Oooh! You just got served!
And don't forget demonic posesssion for regular vehicles!

[jesterofthedark]

ooooooo demonic rhinos of dooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom!

[the_trooper]

Hey, nothing wrong with possessed rhinos!

[General Leevous]

W

Hey, nothing wrong with possessed rhinos!

Yeah if you want to pay 60 points each rhino

Some sort of theme is nice.  Also, we try to be painted.  This is supposed to be a grand show.  Make it pretty...   or ugly...  or whatever.

[the_trooper]

Blantyr is right, theme is pretty big for this event, as is the pressure for painting.

[Rurouni Benshin]

So do we have an approximate date for it yet?  The more notice I have for this, the better and easier it will be for me to plan it.  Having the units and troops ready won't be a problem, it's just that I have to travel quite a distance for it.

Derek??  Chase??

No arguments here. Having your stuff painted really makes the the whole battle a great site. But please be done ahead of time, and don't feel so pressured that you lose sleep. Painting till 4am the morning of, does not make for a good day...
