NE club 100th

[dave3]

I propose to do a ww 2 28mm participation game for this....anyone else coming? free hog roast! mmm

[mike]

I shall of course be attending -- gaming AND free hog roast -- just you try and stop me ;D ;D

Regarding games -- as I suggested here [bedfordgladiators.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=news&action=display&thread=974&page=1], how about 2 or 3 smaller games to show off the range of club activities -- space permitting of course

Yes, a WW2 participation game is a good idea -- certainly gets my vote, after all WW2 is a pretty constant fixture on most club nights

However, that only demostrates one aspect of the club -- there's plenty more to show off

How about a fantasy shirmish game, maybe based around the Mordhiem rules

and/or some starship action using FT

and/or anything else anybody can think of

Yes, I'm aware that space is limited because the skittles team have nabbed half the room, but I think if we keep the games small we should be able fit more than one in.

What do you all think?
Can we run more than one gamr?
And if so, do we want to?

[dave3]

Yes, I am thinking of a small level game, just a couple of squads a side on a 4x4 board...just enough to get the flavour.
Dave

[mike]

Yes, that sounds great -- that's game number one decided

If we're all happy with 4x4 boards (sounds fine to me), we should be able to fit in at least one more, maybe even two

So, any other suggestions people?

David

You can use my SS and Stug if you like - they are upstairs in the black A4 box

[mike954]

I'd be up for doing a starter set game of Warmachine, I have the Khador and Retribution sets and the model count is low enough that things should play pretty fast. 4x4 is the standard table size for Warmachine so it should work fine.

Edit: If any of the other Warmachine players out there feel like joining in, then the more the merrier, especially if you have the Menoth, Cryx or Mercenary starter forces.

Edit 2: Cygnar welcome too, of course!

[mike]

That's great Mike -- as you say, the more the merrier

Also, if we have enough space, I'd be happy to run a small Full thrust just for variety -- say 1,000 pts per fleet, nothing bigger than a cruiser

Dave, any chance you could bring your NAC fleet down? -- I could put a game on without them, but it would look an awful lot better with them

On the same logic, if anybody else has a fleet to bring along (UN Maurice?) that would also be great

[dave3]

ok...I could also bring the space station if you like, for visual effect!

[mike]

Thanks Dave, that would be great -- see you tomorrow

BTW, what time are we meeting up?

[mike954]

I remember a set-up time of 11:30am being mentioned on Monday night.

Edited for a typo.

[mike]

Thanks Mike

[dave3]

Thanks to all who turned up yesterday....we spread the word, and maybe have one potential new member...if his wife lets him out to play!! plus free hog roast was great!
Dave

[mike954]

mmmm Hogroast . . . got to be an option for when we decide to do a club catered event, surely!

[dave3]

That would depend on the cost!! and if the NE club lets us use the carpark....unlikely!
