SUNDAY ATTENDEES (potential):
-MoK
-EdgarSan
-Zombocom
-E&C
-Angor
-MikeT
-Kyuss
-Whitefang
-Jon
-Kyrt

On the Sunday of BWW we usually play a big big big game! Last year it was the walls of an imperial city being besieged by Orks as most people have at least one of those armies...and it was dead fun!

This year I'm suggesting something slightly different: an imperial guard outpost in the middle of a jungle being attacked from all sides by tyranids: the guard have to break out in order to bring on reinforcements and by the end of the battle who ever has the most points inside the outpost wins (but - as always - there will be other objectives to take)

Do people have enough tyranids for this?

I intend to custom build a few really nice terrain pieces.

OR...

Do people have any other suggestions?

During the summer I will be running SECRET CAMPAIGN "PROJECT FIRST WAR FOR..." This involves the Imperium and Chaos: so none of that please!

My other idea was Eldar Vs Guard in said jungle outpost

or how about Eldar trying to destroy an ork city?

Etc!

Throw ideas out here people!

I like 'nids vs Imperials it reminds me of a few great battle reports back in the 90's in White Dwarf.


Also, you're gonna run a campaign weekend Chaos vs. Imperials?? I'm in!

Yep: I've been talking to EdgarSan and Nat (Nat was running the wiltshire campaign that didn't happen), and we've decided to run a series of campaign weekend events between Cut and Thrust in Bristol and Triple Helix in Westbury :-)...They're linked in one way or another...Historical refights...

Maybe we could refight the Mossino campaign in London one year: My seigers versus yr deathkorps; we should get together!

Anyway...

THe only forseeable problem with Nids is MODELS! Enough of them...I have 5k: how many does Zombo have? And who else do we know who has Nids?
Carlos has a nid army...some of the folks up North have them so maybe that's an incentive to get more players...I've sent an email to those that I can :-)

Eldar would probably get you more players but speaking personally I don't mind as my SL army will be ready by then :)

You could paint up some more Zombo. You're basically limited by how much you can be bothered to paint. :-)

We're only looking at 2-3 nid armies at the moment gents...that's a maximun of 15k (5 3k armies?) but we don't yet have 10 players signed up to face each other for sunday!

If you plan on making the sunday please post in this thread!

I may change the Sunday game to Imperial Vs Eldar: they have that 'flighty' nature that I feel would make for a just as tense game...

Opinions welcome.

I would like to attend on the Sunday, but pursuading my wife to let me is another thing..... if so I can bring Imperials and eldar

MikeT has expressed an interest in coming, we may share a car down and he has a good few nids, at least 2k are well painted.... I'll check with him this thursday and see if he's able to firm up his commitment.....
