Tournament of Flyers

[fishboy]

I will be out of pocket most of August getting ready for NOVA but I had an idea for a tournament sometime later in the year if anyone is interested.

How about a 500 point tournament of Flyers. Thats right you can only take Flyers or skimmers in your army. This should give everyone around 3 flyers.

I would say stick with a single codex, reserves start on turn one rather than turn two, and you follow all the flyer rules. I think this would look so friggen cool hehe.

sounds cool and all, but I can't imagine anyone but guard winning that fight...

Ork fighters and De can hold their own. We will see what happens with the Eldar fighter too....Stormraven would do well also along with the SM flyer that can outflank.

In my eyes this would look like the battle of Britan hehe.

I'm pretty sure 5 night scythes @ 100pts each would manhandle 500pts of any other flyers. But a game with only flyers that start on the table would literally come down to who goes first.

That is why you still play it as reserves but you start rolling on turn one. Adds a little mystery to the game and should generate some sales of flyers for Travis. Personally I think the Marine Flyers would do quite well too.
