Well I know what army I'm taking...

Just please don't use the ridiculous khorne motor bike thing... Just because it looks ridiculous! Bad GW, very bad GW

Wait till you read the new codex before u deside that

Oh I sure it's going to be horrendous!

After reading csm and da I don't think so it will be gd but brought into balance for 6th

Bike is horrible... Loving the flies though, will go great with rest of nurgle i have. Hope it's overpowered, Id love to see elvis cry again

Nah it's only the fantasy one and tbh could give a ...... About anything any more just want to paint and play

Am I the only one that thinks the khorne motor bike is teh awesomeness?

Yep, you're the only one... If it had been a kind of a bike squadron with harleys, it might have been funny, grimdark and ok; but there, it's a guy skateboarding a massive bike, using a dog chain leash with two of his buddies getting a ride... Even for GW, it... is... weird...

Agreed

It is a daemon engine from the realm of nightmares and weird sh!t where all the laws of physics are only obeyed if they fancy a giggle. if it looked normal then it would have been wrong as far as I am conserved. nothing wrong with GW flexing their imagination and it makes sense to their bank balance not to have it looking to much like a biker as well cos don’t forget most of this is for both warhammer and 40K.

don’t forget if you don’t like it you can convert it put some juggernauts in front of it as it is a chariot

I will do the draw next week at club for the groups.. The full rules are post below.

I'm gonna have to now aren't I

Only if you want to mate.... But it would be great to have a full 16.. I take that as a yes then

Right we have a list of 16 players let the fun begin!

Annihilation! This event will try to encompass all aspects of the hobby and game, force selection, table top tactics, painting and modelling!

Force selection.
1000pts from any up to date codex. Forge world and allies are a ok too.
Special characters are also fine but if players should both have the same character model and rules then neither will take part. A little incentive to create your own inspiring heroes.

Painting and modelling.
Army's that are fully painted will gain +1 point in the group stage of the event.
Army's that are WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) i.e. players can easily see what your models represent without having to explain what everything is, of course non GW and conversions are just dandy too. If so you will gain +1 point in the group stage.

Group stage.
The tournament will kick off with the group stage. 16 players divided into 4 groups of 4. Each player will play everyone in their group once and the top two will go to the knock out stages.
All group stage games will be PURGE THE ALIEN.
Players will receive 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw and 0 points for a loss. A tally of total victory points will decide any place ties like goal difference in football.
plus bonus points for any painted/wysiwyg army's.

Knock out stage.
The last 8 and there after 4 will play CRUSADE. Straight knock out, winner goes through. Draws will be replayed.

Final.
The last two (and the 3rd and 4th place play off) will play BIG GUNS NEVER TIRE.

Objective counter competition.
There's a post for this to win a voucher. See the post or Elvis for details

Cost.
£1 please to play. It's pays for the prize voucher and the trophy.

Ok I think that's it? Any questions message me. I hope you don't need too ha.

Good luck and have fun... Please

Chris
