Erie 40k tourney

[bfosburg]

Hey guys, the Erie crew has been shaking up the gaming scene down here and have added several new venues at which we play rather than the one game shop. We also do cash prizes when not at the original game shop. This month will be our Forgeworld tourney. Entry fee will be ten dollars, it starts at 1 with registration beginning at noon. This tourney will be 2k points and double force org as well. Not to mention the use of Forgeworld models and lists. No gargantuan creatures, super heavies or the like though. If you have any questions feel free to email me. [e-mail]

We are planning on making the May tourney up there and I can bring our packet if anyone is interested

Looks like Bill and I are coming from Beef And Wing for this.

BTW, with the set terrain rules/ fortifications not being deployed if you cant stay 3 away. I would not suggest anyone bring a fotress of redemption. your opponent might be able to win the roll off and put you in a corner that you cant deploy in. lose the game first roll.

awesome tourny, great job to the Erie guys. Bill said some of the Rochester guys were coming, too bad no one could make it. The missions were awesome. something that should be looked at for daboyz GT this year, REALLY well put together. cant wait to go again next month on the 4th saturday of the month. now if we can just get a store in Buffalo to run a tourney on the first Saturday of the month we can have tournies 3 times a month.
