Warmaster's Challenge


Tourney coming up in September over in Toronto.  Only a 3-ish hour drive for 2 days of gaming fun and lots of prizes, also all the finest Canadian beers.  Rules and stuff are here.

No comp, so there's a tick in its favor.  Scenarios look decent too.  Some soft scoring, but it's mostly from painting so no problems there.  Kroot Mercs and 13th Company are loltastic.

The sideboard thing for the singles tourney is interesting.  I could just roll up with a take all comers list and call it good, but having the option to swap things around would give me more options.  You couldn't totally redo your army, but with my Loganwing, for example, I could choose between Long Fangs and mo' dakka or TWC face smashing.  Or Bloodwing, swapping Devastators for Vanguard.

Thoughts?  Anybody else planning on going?

Well.... I could get flights for 500 of the Queen's finest pounds!

I'd love to head over the ocean for a tournie... but not sure this is the 'one'. Sorry Chumb!

Oh if only I had celebrity-status like yourself to get a ticket. It's certainly something I'll try for, but unfortunately not this year. Any in Vegas in November?

Who knows... maybe I'll start my own BroLoCon and you'll be first on the invite list Mr Chumb.

BroLoCon, I'm so there.

I already have my tickets for this one...how adequately prepared I'll be with the time lost to moving and various other things is another question.

As an aside the Word Verification for this comment was "diccula"...

Just outside of the Kitchener downtown, not Toronto.

Also, sideboards... list tailoring for tournaments. I honestly don't know which I'd rather see that or a severe comp score, they essentially accomplish the same thing.

I DEMAND tickets for the first BroLoCon!

It's something I'm definately serious about. Obviously not called BroLoCon, but that would be funny! I'll look into it when I get up to Cardiff.

TKE, you're 2nd on the list, just need to get all of the other 'celebs' over. Not sure I've got enough sofas for you all to stay over, but who doesn't love a good top'n'tail?
