2010 League

Look out peeps for the 40k League in the new year. Enter Forum for more details.

Or, maybe not...

OK, whoops. We ran around trying to get people interested in going, but unfortunately kept getting the same answer. Basically we left it too late and so have decided not to go this year. Sorry especially to Hads, who made arrangements to make sure he could go, and the same to anyone else in a similar situation. There is a plan in place to try and make sure this sort of thing doesn't happen again. It's called Start Organizing a Darned Site Sooner Next Time (TM).

It appears that we probably won't be doing much in the way of going to events this year, but we hope to do as many as possible next year, so stay tuned!(or however you want to do it on the intarwebz)

Games Day 2009

Daemonettes and Gentleliches (bet you thought I'd get bored of that, huh...)

This is just a short note to let you all know that we're now taking note of anyone who wants to go to Games Day on the 27th of this month. Pop over to the News section of the forum to let us know if you're interested.

For those of you who don't know, Games Day is Games Workshops' premier event, and the home of the Golden Demon painting competition. This year has a bent towards the creative side of the business, with discussions and speeches being given by many artists, modellers, and even the author of the soon to be released Codex: Space Wolves. I'm quite annoyed because I won't be there so you'd all better have a good time there for me, ya hear?

Regards,

webwraith.

It draws nearer...

Daemonettes and Gentleliches(yeah, I''ll stick with that)

Welcome to a quick update on all things BWG-like!

Apologies about my last post, I later found out from the abominable Fuzzman that he wanted to keep the tourney to only a small number of people. Note that player numbers are to be drawn tonight, so those of you entering, kindly be sure to check the forum to find out who you're facing, if you can't make it today.

Those of you who visit the forum might have noticed a couple of new sections go up recently. Firstly, Magic:the Gathering has suddenly gained quite the following at the club, so if you feel like a game, bring your deck along. 

Secondly, we have set up an area that has a list of gaming conventions and expos thoughout the year that we may be going to, should we get enough people interested. The list is still pretty bare at the moment, so let us know of any cons and expos you know about.

Greetings and Salutations!

Daemonettes and Gentleliches (Lichii? Leech?) Welcome to another of these oh-so-often blogs. Your humble server of news tonight is none other than I, the wraith of webs, himself.

Sad news, as Shadow Dragon is temporarily stepping down as the "opens-the-door" guy, and I get that wonderful role.

On the plus side, however, we did have a rather awesome finish to the Zergev campaign, with the forces of Order and Chaos finally facing one another in an almighty Apocalypse game. The game reached fever pitch, as the plans of Chaos were finally revealed, and the mighty Tauran was unleashed upon the material realm once more, followed by a chattering horde of lesser demon spawn. However, the forces of the Imperium held their ground, despite their ace-in-the-hole Hellhammer being stuck behind a giant rock pillar for most of the game, only to be charged by a Brass Scorpion. The forces of disorder weren't lacking in firepower either, as their Warhound titan proved to devastating effect, when it annihilated two squads in as many shots. That'll teach the Imperial Guard to intermingle with heathen Tau. Special mention also goes to the Vindicator, which lived up to its name, and brutally sniped a lone marine with its main cannon, just to clear the charge lane of the Scorpion.

Once the dust settled, and with the sounds of battle still ringing in their ears, the game came to a close; unbelievably, a draw.

In other news, we will be holding a 40k tournament in two meets time, log onto the forum, and post in the thread if you're interested. If you want to just turn up on the night, that's fine too, we just like to have some idea of who's going to turn up.

I know it's late, but we spoke to Stealthy Spider at last years Ludicrus about their game Occult Wars, and they were kind enough to star in a small video;

Ludicrus 2008, interview with Stealthy Spider Publishing about Occult Wars

Finally, if you know of any gaming events coming up, either post in the forum, or talk to one of the comittee members and let us know. I'll be setting up the thread shortly.

Tomb of the Beast 18th July 2009

The Club's wh40k campaign reaches its finale tomorrow, and its ending on a blast. A full on Apocalypse battle - but held underground in a massive cave complex. Can the Forces of Order turn their successes into a Major Victory - or has the Legion of Taurus tempted them into an elaborate trap?

If you like the sound of Warhound Titans, seismic charges, legendary heroes and dastardly villians, tides of Spawn and general carnage and chaos then this is an event to witness!

Set up is from 2pm, with the battle starting at 5pm til 9pm. Why not pop in and see how its going?

Club meeting this Saturday 20th June

Hi all

The Club will be meeting this Saturday at the Scout Hut as usual. As well as the usual pick-up games of 40k and Flames of War, there will be some Battlefleet Gothic games going on. For those of you who don't know, that is battles in space between huge spaceships, set in the 40K universe.

All welcome!
