The Battle of the Thames is making its return in 2014!

The Central London Wargames Club hosts London's second Epic Armageddon tournament using the Minigeddon format!

Registration for BOTT 2014 is now open!

Image


• Minigeddon is a fun and fast-paced supplement for GW's Epic Armageddon and great for newcomers and seasoned players alike!

• Date – November 2nd 2014

• We have set up free pre-registration through Eventbrite - The event is limited to 20 players max, so secure your spot soon!

• The tournament starts 10am, registration opens at 9:30am. Each round has a time limit of 90min with a 1 hour lunch break after the 2nd round. We expect to finish at 7pm.

• Venue – The Escape Sports Bar, 2 Lidlington Place, Regents Park, London NW1 2JU (2 minutes walk from Mornington Crescent tube). If you want to drive, parking is controlled on Sundays in the streets immediately around the pub, but is free a couple of blocks away - otherwise there are car parks nearby as well.

• For more information about Minigeddon and the official Epic UK sanctioned rule set please visit the Epic Armageddon London website, where you'll also find last years armies for additional inspiration.

• The tournament consists of 4 rounds of swiss-format, using 1000 points armies!

• In addition to the Minigeddon format rules, games will be played with the 'One BTS' rule as explained in the rules pdf.

• Lists can be chosen freely from the latest NetEA Army List Compendium 2014-01-14, EpicUK lists overrule where applicable though. Please also note the adjusted army lists for the Minigeddon format (to be found in the Minigeddon rules pdf).

• Please send in your army list by the 26th of October and have a printed copy for your opponent with you.  
We recommend using Armyforge to create and print your army list.

• We like to encourage players to come up with new army themes for BOTT 2014, therefore an army (list) which won best painted previously can only win again if it consist of at least 50% new models.

• Entry fee is £10 on the day which helps the club to pay for the venue and terrain. There will be shiny trophies and prizes for the top 3 players and a special prize for best painted army and also for the infamous wooden spoon.

• This years prize support will again include our unique BOTT objective marker for the winner!
So far, there are only two in existence and you can't get them anywhere else.

In addition we give out the following goodies!
- 1st place: Warlord Titan (Mark III, resin, unbuilt/unpainted)
- 2nd place: Revear Titan (FW Version, resin, unbuilt/unpainted)
- 3rd place: Warhound Titan (FW Version, resin, unbuilt/unpainted)
- Best painted army: Emperor Titan (resin, unbuilt/unpainted)
- Wooden Spoon: custom made chaotic Minigeddon force

But it doesn't stop there!
The fine folks over at Pyrköl in Portugal provided us with a big load of their high quality acrylic gaming markers to give out to the top 3 and something special to be revealed at the event.
Sets include blast marker, shield marker, damage marker, blast templates and more!

On top of that, we hand out a a little something to each participant and a free ticket to the lucky 9th place for the upcoming 9th Full Scale Assault tournament.

• Food and drinks can be bought on site through the Escape sports bar. Beside a good selection of tap beer and non-alcoholic drinks, the bar does some tasty & affordable curries! Lunch orders are best placed between round 1 and 2 to allow it to be ready on time.

For list submissions and any question please write to Florian Hess at info@florianhess.de

We're looking forward seeing you at the table!

Loving the teaser graphics Mr Gonzo. Very impressive!

Unfortunately, no tournament gaming for me until next year, so hope to join you for this then.

P.s sent you an email.

Thanks, BB! :)

Just waiting for our club website to get updated by the webmaster and will then publish the full information.

Don't see why there wouldn't be a 3rd BOTT in 2015 so would be great seeing you next year at our little event!

Ugh. This is Sunday. AND the day after the CRISIS 2014. Not sure if I can manage to fly over. It completly depends if I can couch surf somewhere. Flight is around 40 Euro (if ariving Saturday and leaving Sunday, otherwise it gets really expensive), let me check if I can get some other guys in for a match.

Update:
First 7 tickets are gone! A big thanks to all the players who already registered! :)

Current pre-registered players:
- Mark Webster
- Richard Lakin
- Carlos Ferrao
- Radoslaw Niemiec
- Robert Hutson
- Matthew Arnold
- David Last


Some people asked for more details about times, here's the planned schedule for the day:

9:30 - doors open, registration opens
10:00 - 1st round, 90min time limit, 15min between rounds
11:45 - 2nd round
13:15 - lunch break, best painted judging
14:15 - 3rd round
16:00 - 4th round
18:00 - final standings, award ceremony

Worked out pretty well last year, so expect it to be no different this year.

Will there be an any new Minigeddon Formations between now and the event?


Currently, there are no planned changes to the exciting Minigeddon formations. We are aware that for example the new Yme-Loc Eldar are not playable at the moment.
If we can collect enough play testing data before mid-October that might change but there's no guaranty i am afraid.

However, there is definitely a bigger update for Minigeddon in the making after BOTT 2014 is done. :)
