Well, I guess we have next week still.

And real genius, if you still need a 1250 game I can try to have that list ready if you can meet this coming weekend since Sid pulled out

His Dreadnought got left lonely on the other side of the board. Land Raiders aren't as scary and I thought they would be. I got both of my maelstrom objectives and Carey got the shared objective. I denied him getting his objective by running a rhino up on it and Tigurius by getting him back in his land raider the turn he was supposed to kill him. He did manage to clear me off of the shared objective on the fourth turn, the turn he called it to be due.

In the end, it ended up being 7 for me (two objectives and slay the warlord) vs Carey's 5 (One objective, first blood, and linebreaker). I seriously doubt my list today would have done very well if he was playing his orks. It was a fun game and I look forward to playing him again.

Great game! I enjoyed the models, battles and slow pace with great conversation! (slow due to my lack of stat/rule knowledge) Will have to have a rematch in the future!

Sure, I should be available.

Anyone up for a 1250 or 1500 point game this week?

I think we'll let it run to the end of the month and those formally close out the league. Should we start a new thread on what to try next, and timing?

I still need a 1250 game, but I will not be at DL this week. I'll be available this weekend or next Thursday.

I need to get my 1250 and 1500 pt games in. I can likely meet this weekend in the afternoons/evenings to make this happen. But I'm likely out of town after that, but will be back in on the last Sunday of the month to finish up.

Morella, I know we're on for 1500. So lemme know when works for you.

Hey. Sorry, been studying for two qualifying exams. All else is on hold til next Wednesday. If you want to get a game in sometime after the 27th then any day is good.

I would love to see if we could get enough commited, able people together to run an actual campaign. If we get enough solid, committed players for it, we could even set it up like the one miniwargaming is doing where other people who can't commit to keeping up with the campaign can still drop in for a battle, and have it count for one of the factions.
