Hi all,

I've been thinking about organising an Epic gaming and hobby day (tentatively named "EpicCon") at No Mans Land, my local indie gaming store. They have five 4x4 gaming tables and a large hobby area.

The idea is that it would be a community event rather than a competitive tournament: a chance to meet fellow Epic gamers, show off your models, pick up some painting tips, and play a friendly game or two (maybe try out NetEpic if you're a NetEA player, or vice versa).

I'm not going to make any promises, but it's possible that I might be able to get Dan Abnett to make a guest appearance.

I haven't got any firm plans or dates yet, just wondered if there would be any interest in an event of this type.

I'd be interested tentatively. Would it be possible to get 6x4 tables?

Yes, but only by joining three tables together to create two 6x4 tables. That would reduce the number of games that could be played simultaneously.

I'd be interested

2k games on 4x4 tables works really, really well. I'd encourage everybody to come!

Some kind of tournament would perhaps generate a bigger draw, but if you want to keep things real casual than go for it!

Hadn't really thought about the date. Obviously I would want to avoid clashing with the Epic-UK circuit.

I've set up a Doodle Poll - if you're interested in coming, mark the dates you'd prefer.

Unfortunately No Mans Land has just closed down, much to my distress. So any sort of event like this is probably off the cards for the time being.

Sorry to hear. Would have been too far for me for a singe day, but would have expected enough others to have made it viable.
