40K Boot Camp 2008 40K Boot Camp is a two day Warhammer 40k tourney to be held in Victoria in September. In true boot camp style players will have the opportunity of staying in a quiet country location and completely disturbing the peace by engaging in a weekend of furious wargaming.  The gaming format planned is quite different from your standard tourney fare, with two days of campaign like play between two teams being used to determine the winners. Dates: Friday evening September 5th to Sunday afternoon September 7th Number of players 32. As usual get your name down early to guarantee a place! Venue: 15 Mile Creek School Camp, near Benalla (approximately 220kms or 2.5 hours North East of Melbourne) Entry Fee: $100 Player Capacity: 32 Theme: The assault on Kilfeera II Another system, another planet, another bloody confrontation. Deep in the Lurg system, the forces of Chaos launch an assault on the heavily defended imperial world of Kilfeera II. Evading the orbital defenses, the enemy battlegroup launches a ferocious assault on the planetary capital, aiming for a quick and bold victory. Simultaneously striking the main airbase, communications array and industrial manufactorium, the invaders try to throw the defenders off balance with multiple threats to crucial infrastructure while their main force assaults the Imperial held coastline. The stage is set. Can the Imperial defenders hold the forces of chaos at bay for long enough to retreat in an orderly fashion behind the city walls, making them pay dearly for the attempted siege? Or will they rout in disarray, too weak to adequately defend the hive city? Game details: Team format: All players will be divided into two teams, the forces of Chaos and the forces of the Imperium. Generals will be assigned for each side. Generals will then assign forces to different sectors. Much bickering and mayhem will ensue.  Points: Now 3000pts per player. Rules: 40K Boot Camp 2008 will use GW 5th Edition plus Apocalypse rules and published datasheets. Stratagems will be used. Super Heavies, Titans and Flyers in Apocalypse rules allowed but must be WYSIWYG. Other gear from Forgeworld will be allowed but where FW and Apoc rules clash, Apoc rules will be used. Players do not need to own Apocalypse to play, relevant rules will be made known to all players. Please bring any datasheets relevant to your force. Format: Saturday - Saturday will see both sides fight for specific objectives. Assaults will be made on the imperial held coastline, main airbase, communications array and industrial manufactorium. Results will influence Sundays game. Sunday - All players will join together to assault or defend the hive city. Schedule: Arrive Friday evening and have dinner on site. Free gaming time. Saturday breakfast and pre game briefing Saturday - 9am-12pm phase 1 Lunch break. Saturday - 1pm-4pm phase 2 Saturday - 5pm-8pm phase 3 Saturdays play will influence jump off points and team abilities for the Sunday game. Dinner. Free gaming, movies, poker, etc.. Sunday breakfast and final round briefing 10am-2pm - Final assault Lunch. Pack up. Awards ceremony. End by 3:30pm. Army Lists: 2000pts per player, with Force Org as per Apocalypse rules (ie. rip up your old force org charts). Painting: Given that we all have a bit of notice lets try and have stuff painted this year. Sports: We are aiming for a friendly tourney environment. We expect all players to be courteous and polite. Unsportsman like conduct will not be tolerated. Entry Fee Payment: Entry Fee: $100 To guarantee your place $50 deposit required by Tuesday 15th July. Full payment, army lists and contact details due by Friday 22nd August. Payment details - direct deposit to: XXXXx This is a fully catered event. Entry fee includes two nights accommodation and all meals from Friday night dinner to Sunday lunch. Soft drinks, beer and snacks will be available for purchase at cost. Awards & Prizes: Prizes will be awarded for achieving mission objectives over the course of the 2 days. All attendees that bring a table worth of terrain will be entered in a separate prize draw. Please post all enquiries, questions or entries to this thread. Thanks Zim  ...and did I mention that there was mini golf at the venue? How many other tourneys offer that?  Last year we used min golf as a play off round for prizes, so better sharpen up your putting skills.

Tenabrae had a scratch built Thunderhawk last year.
We like to play things relaxed, its more about the event than a beauty parade. Having said that I would as TO, and I know other players would, object to cardboard cutouts on the table. If you want to convert something up or scratch build it then let me know what you are intending to do and how and we can probably accommodate it. -------------------- QUOTE If a man is skateboarding down the sidewalk, is swooped by a pterodactyl and falls into the chest of a large-breasted albino somalian tax agent: Is that sexism??? |

Yeah wasn't thinking of anything particularly dodgy like running a piece of paper the footprint of a baneblade with the weapons detail written on it. Rather i would build a bunch of cardboard tanks, painted up nicely and detailed\riveted etc. to look the goods. Something along these lines:

x360, yes it is required, i would have bought mine (brought controllers) but was told the NSWelshmen were taking care of it, but they did not !
I reckon we bring two, get two projectors and a little Halo 3 team action ! -------------------- Reuse Repurpose Recycle
