No it only fires at one of the two wings; and you have to choose.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on September 12, 2013, 09:58:00 AM: I'm available tonight at Plainville, Friday night, Saturday all day and Monday night in Abington. If you want to get the game in in Plainville, please let me know as soon as possible. Also, I apologize I wasn't able to get back to you in the 6 hours between your posts.

If you've been playing it that way then you got screwed, because that's wrong. AA fires at anyone in range, the number of targets is irrelevant. Paul told me this in person before the start of the campaign.

Alright lets do tonite, but does Plainville have the result sheets?
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on September 12, 2013, 12:13:05 PM: No they do not, we can email/pm Paul/Nick results.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on September 12, 2013, 12:50:21 PM: I'd feel more comfortable using the paper sheets, less chance of error.. if you want to play in Abington tonight I'll do that, or tomorrow.

I have a massive hangover today, so its probably for the best. Does 5:00 tomorrow work for you?
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on September 12, 2013, 01:56:11 PM: My timeframe is dependent on work, so I'll be there between 4:30 and 5:30... Sorry I can't give you something more specific, but robots don't care about time constraints.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on September 12, 2013, 02:05:38 PM: Ok that is still pretty accurate, I'll be there @ 5.

Dude, I live 3 miles from Battleground, I could carry my 2 Stormravens and walk if I had to. I have Monday off but have scheduled a tattoo appointment at 2pm. I am not sure how long that will take. Most of Tuesday is free. If neither of those work, oh well, we leave it to Nick to roll the result. Its wedding season, I'm lucky I am getting 2 days off a week this year.

That being said, if your really worried about Gas. Behold Page 3 of the Storm and Shadows Rule Book:
Quote
Preface to the Players
Let me begin by saying thank you for participating in Storms and Shadows, a Warhammer 40k campaign for
Battlegrounds Games and Hobbies. This campaign was designed with the community of Battleground Games and
Hobbies Abington specifically in mind.

Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: Thomas callahan on September 16, 2013, 06:49:53 PM: i have all week off so when ever is fine
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on September 16, 2013, 08:18:52 PM: Tom and Chef, you wanna play tomorrow? Please let me know asap. Thanks
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: Thomas callahan on September 16, 2013, 10:37:14 PM: sure at what time?
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on September 17, 2013, 12:19:07 AM: @Tom 2:00 good?
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: Thomas callahan on September 17, 2013, 12:59:31 AM: i will try but probally wont show till 2:30 or 3
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on September 17, 2013, 01:22:18 AM: Ok 2:30-3:00 is fine
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: The_Chef on September 28, 2013, 03:10:30 AM: Gentlemen. Mega-battle Time. I almost certainly must bow from it. Trying to get all 4 of you to match a day that works for me is unfair. If the other 4 of you can play on a Saturday; by all means. The only other choice I can see, is setting this up for Abington Tuesday 40k Night.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: Achillius on September 28, 2013, 09:21:27 AM: Definately time to organize.

What do people have for availability ?
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: Vandehey on September 29, 2013, 12:07:40 AM: I can do a Monday 100%, and I can try to work on either a Tuesday or a Sunday. These days I will have open for the whole day to plane it out and play the game.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on September 29, 2013, 10:51:42 AM: So, I work a normal 8-5 M-F. I suspect this will take a significant number of hours (likely more than 5, but I'm not sure). We can either try and sneak something in after work (I can probably take off an hour early for that) or do it on the weekend.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: Achillius on September 29, 2013, 06:20:57 PM: I can do this coming weekend, Saturday is easier than Sunday.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: Vandehey on September 29, 2013, 11:29:24 PM: I wontbe able to do Sat, I have to work stupid long hours that day. But I am free all day sunday. I will double check the schedule for work tomorrow just to be sure though.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on September 30, 2013, 10:29:59 AM: I just looked more carefully at my schedule (like this: :o ) and discovered I have a wedding to attend on Saturday. So, that's out for me, but everything else is open.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: Achillius on September 30, 2013, 12:29:51 PM: I've just heard that my Friday afternoon/evening has cleared up some.... Another option?
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on September 30, 2013, 12:38:50 PM: Friday is fine by me, but something worth considering is that it's also FNM night. I suspect that will be just shy of annoyingly loud.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: Vandehey on September 30, 2013, 05:23:33 PM: 2 things, 1 I looked at my schedule and am open for sunday and Monday only this week. 2, I am waiting for a model to arrive at the store for the game and wont have it til then.

We could always be louder....

Anyway short of three people even trying to play this game, we're not getting very far...

Myself, You, Brad and Jerry. Is that not 4? ;) So far Khorneflakes has yet to weigh in.

I don't mind bowing out / being excluded if its a weekend game. If its a Monday or Tuesday I am usually at B.G. anyways. I want you all collectively to what works best, I know I'm the difficult price of this puzzle
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on October 01, 2013, 04:51:36 AM: It has a certain ring to it, "khorneflakes" ;D At the moment I'm available whenever. Also what are the allies looking like? Who are the team so far on Polaris?
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on October 01, 2013, 10:59:43 AM: Mmmmkay, this is pissing me off. I hate things like "the Thursday after next next Friday," so I made a handy dandy whenisgood. Just highlight the times that work for you.

Post by: Chris on October 01, 2013, 03:46:51 PM: Please post on the forums when this one will be happening, it should be the best one to watch of all the Apocalypse games.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on October 02, 2013, 01:01:46 AM: What are the teams? I'm looking for a teammate
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on October 02, 2013, 10:53:36 AM: With 3 of 5 players (Myself, Murph, and Jerry) reporting in, Monday, October 7th (4pm-DONE) is looking like our best bet for a date. If you haven't reported in, please do so. If that date doesn't work for you, don't tell me, just fill out the poll. Respectfully, Mike and Alan, fill out the damn poll :)

Again, it's available at www.whenisgood.net/epsilonpolaris
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on October 02, 2013, 08:16:12 PM: I'd love to give an answer but no one has answered mine, what are the teams?? I think this is the 4th time I've asked..
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: The_Chef on October 02, 2013, 09:33:23 PM: There are no teams. stop being difficult and give a time you can make it to get this blasted league completed. We are perhaps the only planet NOT just splitting.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on October 03, 2013, 02:57:27 AM: That's not entirely true, Brad said he had a teammate so I was curious who else had allies. Do you want to be my ally Chef? If there is only one team then the other players might get piece mealed, I prefer to increase my odds of winning.

Oct 7th is fine
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on October 03, 2013, 08:54:24 AM: I was wrong, I was discussing teaming up with someone, but they decided a free for all would be more fun. He's right methinks.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on October 03, 2013, 10:15:50 AM: Ok nevermind, free for all it is!!! 8)
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on October 03, 2013, 05:37:27 PM: The current poll results (which are missing Mike. Ps: you suck) show that Monday night is our only option. The next best options all exclude two people. So, at this point, I propose that our official hammer blow night be Monday, October 7th from ~5-whenit'sdone.

If you have an issue with this... sigh.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on October 03, 2013, 06:42:17 PM: I already agreed to Oct 7th several posts ago
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: Vandehey on October 03, 2013, 09:44:33 PM: I have no problem with this, I might have to bow out if it goes to long though, Tue I have to be at work to open at 8am. But I am all pumped up to play the game!
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: The_Chef on October 03, 2013, 10:03:19 PM: Now; to actually read the Apocalypse book. :-X
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on October 04, 2013, 10:28:50 AM: Alrighty then. See you guys Monday, and plan on being there late. It's Apoc, it'll take us at least 3 hours to get models on the board. ::)
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: MM3791 on October 07, 2013, 03:40:39 PM: I don't think I'm gonna end up making it, good luck to all those involved.
Title: Re: Epsilon Polaris Turn 10
Post by: bradpowers on October 07, 2013, 04:27:20 PM: Really? That's really unfortunate, saying you're available and then bailing last minute....

Are you officially forfeiting on Polaris?

Sorry things come up, yes I am officially forfeiting Polaris. In this situation its the fair thing to do.
