Looks like the excellent people over at Flame On have put together an unofficial
UK 40k GT. I believe this was done in reaction to some disappointment over the changes to the Throne of Skulls format. I'm sure the guys at Flame On will put on an excellent event and I've got my ticket already. In fact I bought my ticket 15 mins after they went on sale and I'm number 26 so it's sure to be a big event!
Well the "official" Flame On tournament is actually Battle of The Chumps. I know my friend Neil was heavily involved with organizing the Indy GT. Knowing what a meticulous guy he is and the effort he puts in organising tournaments (plus he is very experience by now) I can guarantee this is going to be a fantastic event. In fact I am quite tempted of attending myshelf!
ReplyDeleteOoh sounds good. Not sure about using the Rule Book missions though, I'd rather see something similar to the 5x5 system. That's only because you can easily end up with draws with some combinations of missions/deployments.
ReplyDeleteDo it! Plenty of time to get the Guard up and running!
ReplyDeleteI only found out about BotCh this year via the SPace Wolves blog, looks like a good event, I'm going to keep an eye out for it next year.
Well I would absolutely LOVE to go but I don't know if I am going to be able to spent 400-500 euros for a weekend of gaming. Sounds a bit excessive even for my standards. Maybe if I bring it up now to my wife I might have the permission to come by the time it starts if I keep nagging for a few months.
ReplyDeleteNever been to a Botch since Neil started running them after I left England. I am sure they are very fun events with a great and friendly atmosphere.
Oooh I'm going too number 71
