If it's 'that sort' of club surely the pink shirt with the black stripes would be best.
 :wink:
and right at the bottom of the page they have some really sweet pink bags as well.............

Anyway we are a club - the W-E club :!:

Which actually brings me on to a point I saw in the Tourney rules about registering your 'club' so we wouldn't play each other in the first 3 rounds or something like that.

Edit Later

I've heard someone in the chat insisting it is now 2250 points?

Well a red shirt from GW rotterdam told me it was 2300 points, and I'm quite sure he's right.

I'll be joining you in the gym :lol:
But I will bring my Druchii (just because 2300 points of horde is going to be a problem to field I guess.

I think I'll be staying in the sleeping hall, just because my home is too far to drive back ( well I think it is) and I'll sleep anyway when I'm tired.

Another silly question, but I cannot find any mention on the GW site yet?

http://ne.games-workshop.com/events/diary/default.asp

which was the link from last years pack info.

Entry date has been suggested is April 1st, but where will the forms be - can you do it on line?

I suspect that it will be popular this year due to the favourable press last year, so we need to be quick at registering.

Any further info?

Last year the info didn't come online until april or so.

Sign-up usually means purchasing a ticket through the Online Store, which comes with a registration card which you need to fill out and send in at some date before the tournament.

I think you can - better give them a call and check, though.

Well we'd better get tickets now, as I have booked the ferry.
 :wink:

Question:

Is it easier for one person to book a number of tickets or us to do it individually?

i dont believe that the cult of ulric lists are allowed (middenland is)
the Stank doesnt play either.
and isnt there a rule for prayers and bound items to get exhausted (dont know the entire rule, as it was last year that i read 'em)

and its 2300 im sure now

It seems the point value for the tournament has changed again.

http://ne.games-workshop.com/events/diary/eventpop.asp?id=747

2250 pts it is, time to shave of a few points..... :x

*sputter*

Only five games?

Hmmm... Well, maybe then we won't have to get up so damn early. My hangovers tend to improve with an extra hour of sleep. Or four.

I would make sure about that by checking with the organizers but if it is............I'm sure a lot of Empire players will start to look at changing their list, if only because the Stank wasn't allowed before!

sorry 'bout the wrong army size

(i've hung my source from the largest tree as soon as i heard the news)

stanks are nice, but most players at a GT have a couple of tricks up their sleeve for big thingy's (at least thats my expierence)

Sadly, I will not be attending this tournament (never really an option), but I read the rules out of curiosity. I can't seem let this one go.

Quote
The army roster must:

• Contain all information required for play and reference including:
a. Characteristic profiles.
b. Point costs of models, upgrades, equipment, magic items etc.
c. Any special rules that apply to the unit.

Due to the popularity of rosters made using the Army Builder program, we must take this opportunity to inform you that these rosters are considered neither clear nor readable.

I'm not suggesting that anyone should use this program, but every list I've ever been handed that was done with it I've found to be both clear and readable. Needless to say, I was suprised to see this.

This biggest complaint I've ever heard about them is that they can be just plain wrong, which is already covered by an illegal list. So, I'm wondering if I'm the only one who finds them clear and readable.

I'm not getting where this is coming from. :?

Well, the abbreviated form in which magic item rules are written down in Armybuilder can lead to confusion on what the item actually does.

Still, I find it a handy program for some quick list construction.
