    Grand Battle December 17th at DL

    I have a 4,000 pt list for a Grand Battle at Dragon's Lair next Tuesday, December 17. Normal rules apply, no special characters, must have actual figures, no substitutes, I will be there at 5:00pm.

    who are you?

    It's for Fantasy Mike - Grand Battle is a type of game for WHFB (sorta like APOC for 40k, but different). Which is why he listed it for Tuesday.

    And that's Alphonse, obviously.
    with 40k its best to get the rules straight then apply imagination and rationalize; you will only get annoyed doing it the other way round

    As long as you don't bring special characters. Whatever that means.

    If I tell you, "You're wrong," you'll need to click this.

    Does anybody else find it odd, by the way, that the information age has led to language becoming an oblique and imprecise tool where even the most straightforward phrasing is pored over with chicken entrails and bone tossing to divine the true meaning?

    Who needs Special characters? He's bringing a Tesseract heavy BS machine and some Rip Tides!

    Ok, that was my mistake, a Warhammer Fantasy Battle, no special characters means no named characters from the Army Books. Most battles are only 2,500 points, I keep playing the same armies I played in the previous weeks, because people only bring lists they plan to use in tournaments, no imagination. I tried a challenge a few months ago with no one using magic users or magic items, so my opponents brought in large monsters that only magic weapons could hurt, my mistake again. Now, I am going for a large battle with magic, monsters and wizards, just for something different.

    That wasn't your mistake. that sounds like your opponent(s) were being jerk(s).
