I should be able to come up this week. I would like to try and set up some games against people who have superheavies/ D weapons they want to try out. I do not have any but would like to see if they are as unbalancing as everyone is worried about.

I'd bring a work in progress/proxied Stompa but I don't know if I'm going to make it this Thursday.

That's the spirit ;) Just make sure you bring as many anti-armor as possible

Bilbo: Can you promise that I'll come back?
Gandalf: No, and if you do you won't be the same

Hmmmmm.....We should have a Stompa versus Stompa fight at some point.

Haven't played a 40k game in 6 months...maybe I will stroll in with my Stompa this week.

We definitely should. Although my Stompa still has a long ways to go from being completed. This is essentially the basic concept for it.

I already love it....

I cannot wait for a new codex...it will give me the bug to start Orking up some new crazy stuff...

Maybe use that 3D printer that I am going to buy for my Design Class...since I have to learn to use it before teaching my students how to use it.

We had a few games tonight, with the centerpiece being a Doubles match with Escalation rules... really just for a player to bring that big ol' Necron thing with a C'tan in the middle. Mixed reactions. I don't think that singular experience changed anyone's minds, other than some things won't be as powerful as thought.

We had a couple games last night. We have a new Grey Knights player that would like someone to teach him how to play. And my Shark Marines have a designation for their bike chapter. And that's my recap.

I'm taking this Thursday off, but I'm sure the store tomorrow will be quite busy.

I'm going to try to make it tonight, but I probably can't get there by 6:30. Are other people ever late and start smaller games? Any issue with someone just lurking to watch?

No problem what so ever. People come in at all different times and there should be someone there willing to play a smaller game. If not people will be more power than willing to let you watch a game and answer questions.

Last we had kind of a smaller turn out. We a game of Dark Eldar vs Orks/IG. A 4 way game of Orks and orks with IG vs Dark Eldar. I got to try out the Zhadsnark da Rippa biker boss. He seems like he would be a good addition to an Orks speed freaks army. Being able to scout a warbiker squad up is very useful. Only thing is he only has a 6+ save so even though he is toughness 6 and a power klaw that goes at imitative you really have to pick your battles carefully. There was also a game of space marines vs Tau.

White Scars with Dark angels vs. Taudar.  Templecon prep.  It was a close game.  We played vanguard deployment, two objectives in deployment zone and the relic in the middle.  It ended up being a close thing 6vp to 3vp in favor of the Marines.  I finally found a way to deal with 3 riptides and not by ignoring them :)

I had my objective, slay the warlordand linebreaker.  Tau had First Blood, Slay the Warlord and linebreaker.  He couldn't get out to the relic and I couldn't keep units alive once I picked it up!  Definitely a fun game.

Was the white scar bikes with grav guns that dealt with the riptides? or bikes in close combat?
