It'll take me awhile to get up a 1850 army, may try to arrange a smaller battle beforehand. I need some practice on the new 7th rules too.
Tank shock events for newbies, hey that sounds perfect. Did a google and found an article on belloflostsouls about it, so do you show up and buy a specific kit or do you just show up with your own Rhino or Land Raider or what have you, or do you buy a new one and paint it there? Sounds like there's some battles, do you fight with just the tanks or ... hah. Well I guess if Dragon's Lair or Wonko's does a tank shock event sometime soon I'll find out.
