I'm trying to balance fun for all at the event, so here are the pros and cons I see.

Pro's: this is a fun event, and if your opponent doesn't have a problem, I don't see a problem.
Con: we might be getting new players, and Tyranids aren't a 'teaching friendly' army to play.
Con: this doesn't really play into the whole 2nd war for Armageddon story line too well.

If you have your heart set on it, talk to me by PM, but it would be much better if you were to play your marines... or you could just proxy your 'nids as Orks?



I hate Orkz. I hate Orkz with the fury of a thousand exploding suns.

That's a lot of fury. I'd have no problem against 'nids, but of course I can't speak for others.

First: sorry, tac com website is blocked for me from work, so I've been slow getting back onto the forums to check for updates.

To answer, there are 6 tickets left (4 filled right now)

I'm running a version of the event as a 'test run' at Stragegicon (http://strategicon.net/) Orccon Los Angles on February 18th to see if there are any things that need working out before we get a game in at Adepticon. I'll try to post a picture

Last time Dan and I played I pushed my NetEA Agenda on him so will see what he says, he was using just GW lists at that time.

approved only I'd guess - seeing as he wants the game to be newbie friendly

So I just got in the last of my stands for my Tyranid Army from Bartertown. Just re-learning some rules. Got a game in today with my bro-bro TheAmazingAntman.

I decided in the hopes of preserving progress, I will use the new playtesting codex for Tyranids as opposed to the old one for my games at home and at Adepticon. If this is NOT ok, let me know so I can change for Adepticon.

Also, as for how balanced the new book is, I lost to Guard tonight, REALLY REALLY HARD. Full writeup to come in the playtest forums soon.

Pffft. Never let the new guy win.

Although, things would have been very different if he'd been able to grab the initiative on round 2...he had a juicy combo charge lined up that got turned upside down by a point blank sustained fire action by a Leman Russ company at full strength...it was ugly.

Anyways, looking forward to both Adepticon events (although I haven't signed up for this one yet. I should do that now).
