1. Grotesques can blow themselves up if an IC is not attached, but I can't take any IC's in the first period. Will this rule be ignored or do I just need to deal with it? Don't take them and you won't have to worry about it

Don't take them and you won't have to worry about it Yeah my concept is a haemi coven that's almost all grotes and talos and I can't use talos at all in period 1. Take out HQs and grotes as well and I would prolly have to skip the first period altogether.

I am tentatively throwing my hat in the ring too. I have a necron army needing paint. The decider will be how much painting I can get done between now and the start. If I can get to 500+ by the 6th, I'll play.
I'm also trying to convince my brother to enter. His DE really need some motivation.

Don't forget the first period ends on 12/19 so you actually have up to two weeks longer to pain and just power through 3 games in one evening. I probably won't have 500 done by the 6th either but definitely by the 18th.

Unfortunately, my ability to paint is compromised by the fact that my back wears out too quickly these days. One of the lasting effects of the surgery. Since my stomach muscles got compromised, my back is doing double duty supporting me in anything.
Normally, I'd have no doubts of my ability to power through 500+ points in a few weeks. Not so sure right now though. Here's hoping.

new question!
I'm using marines in the same colors as the rest of my marines... but I will be fielding only models I've painted since 10/31/2011....
Does this count as a new army, an old army, or whats the deal?
They are all new models -__-

Steve that's a old army so only the +1 bonus, now if they were actually red.... and not just a shoulder pad.... then it would be a different story.
On a side note, I edited the main post, and that should be all set now, also everyone at the store should know of the discount's.
Later.

well yea, its an old army... but they are going to be 95% newly purchased and painted, just in the same colors as my other marines. That still counts as an old army?

Random question.
Is an av11 vehicle with quantum shielding legal during p1?

I was wondetring the same thing myself. Now it's mostly curiosity since I've pretty much confirmed I am not in it now. I just can't sit to paint for long enough yet. Even if I could somehow get it done, I'd be falling behind soon after. So, next time for me.

Raw yes, since they are just armor 11, with a upgrade, but for fairness I'm saying no, they are not legal.
Which brings me to my next point, do lances work on them, I think they do just because that get into some pretty cheesy language...
Also the size of the models its makes a hell of easy way to just points in this format.
Also no jokes about my flyer I made up
