Count me in

_________________

I am in, of course!
Just need to finish up my 'the other games phase' in mid-February.

Tempted to start the league with my Death Korps who haven't seen play since the shite codex update.
That would make the following list:

- Death Korps
- Necrons
- (Traitor) AMTL *given that i can get them assembled in time and painted is not a requirement, hehe

_________________

Ok I need an incentive to paint a new 3k army - did a tiny bit last night. So I'm in, but keeping the "with what" under wraps for now. It's going to be thematic rather than competetive so apologies in advance to anyone on my team.

Sweet, so we now have 5; Mark, Radek, Flo, Nick, and I! Any more for any more?

_________________

When do you aim to start the league so we are not waiting forever for people to make up their mind if they wanna play Epic this year or not, hehe

_________________

League will run from March. But we can do early fixtures sooner for those already on board.

_________________

FYI I'd like to use my soon to be finished codex white scars. March works well for me

Brill

_________________

No worries about early fixtures. March will do just fine
Too much Star Wars Armada going on this month anyway.

_________________

Races so far are

Steve - Squats
Mark - Emperor's Children
Flo - Krieg
Nick - White Scars
Alan - Nids
Radek - TBC (can you let me know what you're playing)

I have to say, that's a pretty awesome line up of races. Radek, no pressure to keep up the random race count!

Next steps:
Everyone send me their 3000 point list by Feb 22nd!
I'll put the fixtures together (hopefully this weekend)
Start booking your games
We aim to finish round 1 by 30th of June (so 5 games in 4 months)
Round 2 will probably run Sept-Dec

There will be a team element but that will only be based on the results of good vs evil games (so good v good, and evil v evil will only count for the final standings)

So far the teams are

Good
Nick
Flo

Evil
Mark
Alan

TBC
Radek
Steve (who Radek goes will define whether Squats get classified as Xenome scum or loyal vertically challenged doyens of imperial culture)

If anyone else wants to take part just let me know. Easy to fit you in at this stage.

Late addition of Chris takes us to 7. I'm just waiting for his list.

_________________

Lists are now up on the start of the thread. Still waiting for Chris.

great stuff
I think I will be getting wooden spoon this time but look forward to some good games

I like the fact you've gone for the anti siege masters! Tiny numbers of fast hard guys.
