[Iron Warrior]

HMmm, thats pretty awesome. I may have to bring my IW's and have a go at that. wow!

[Norton]

makes you want to very *friendly* person-out a shooty ultramarine army and take a shot at the title dosnt it?

[Wolf Lord Snorville]

Kinda makes you want to bring the death company from hell and have a go at it.

[MajorSoB]

With prizes like that, maybe I will even put together a good army!!!!

[Iron Warrior]

Yeah Doug! Bring your UBER witch Cult...cause they rock!

[MajorSoB]

The green plague shall be erased by the might from my wych blades!!!

[Iron Warrior]

Atleast I know, that no matter how terrible my orks are there is still one army worse than it...Your Witchs. LOL!! ;D

[Sanguinary]

Plane = ~$300 as of today
Train = ~$110
Driving = ~$120\car @ 25mpg


Just wondering what people were thinking. I have a tight budget, but might be able to squeeze it out.

I think the train would be the way to go. It is longer, but would be more relaxing. I think that the trip runs overnight - so sleeping can take up most of the trip. Just my thoughts. Granted, we would need to take a cab from the station so we need to find out how far the event is from the train station (or airport for that matter).

Of course, I won't know if I can go until after the baby is born so I'll go along with whatever everyone else thinks.

[MajorSoB]

I am in. I want to either drive (possibly rent a van and split it between all of us?) or take the train. Whatever everyone decided, I do want to go.

[Iron Warrior]

Same here. Dont matter to me. But I know my car wont make the drive.

What about registration? Onsite or Online?

Here's the train info:

Price $54 one way.
leaves Thursday 3/23 at 10:45 PM
arrives Friday 3/24 at 9:30 AM (registration for the event starts at 11:00 - first event at 12:00)

Return trip

Price $54 one way.
leaves Sunday 3/26 at 7:55 pm
arrives Monday 3/27 at 8:08 am

There is also the option to upgrade to a bed room for an extra $124 (in case anyone would want to look into this).

As far as the registration goes, its probably better to register in advance. Of course, only those who are definitely going should do this. As far as hotel rooms, I noticed on the Adepticon Website that there is a link for hotel accomodations.

Hobin 1 here from Boston...finally found the new website ( thanks Pacheco).

I think Jeff and I will be going out to Adepticon. Flying in Thurs night, flying out Sunday night.

Do you think we should start putting together a head count for hotel room purposes? Looks like $80 / night for the Marriott.
