I'd quite like to take part, but I'm not sure I can actually construct an army that meets the various selection criteria listed above with any of my armies.

I certainly can't do it with my Skaven as my army contains no Scouts, Skirmishers, Flyers or Units that enter the board after standard deployment. Which makes the list for Game 2 impossible to construct with that army. I'm pretty sure my Warriors of Chaos army can't meet the requirements for that game either, I have two units of Marauder Horsemen, but not 500 points worth.

I might be struggling with my Dwarfs as well. I easily have enough stuff to cover games 1, 3 and 4, but 500 points of scouts, skirmishers, etc could be an issue. I only have one unit of miners and a single Gyrocopter which won't come to 500 points between them.

Hi Mate, we can supply loads of Skaven (circa 4k) not the new kit doomwheel etc but plenty of skirmishers etc.

Can also access loads of dwarves if needed.

Let me know if you are interested, I have pm you my mobile number

Cheers
