  I am, as I am running the UWZ scenario, some of the Bring and Battles and the 1k tournament.

Incidentally, this one will be run in similar fashion to past events.  3 rounds, mission oriented, environmental rules.  10am start on Saturday

  No I don't.  I wish I did, though.  I'd love to have them here...

  As it is, if you can bring terrain, that would be great.  Matter of fact, everyone that plans on coming, please bring terrain.  If possible, I will try to keep folks stuff on their own tables for play- easier to keep track of.

  Veez is sending me trenchlines and Bunkers so I have a WW1/Green Line board in mind for one field (Cardinal help anyone facing Mark Andrews on that board. 45 Light infantry a colonel and 2 flyers)

You know i have a full trenchline with weapons pits and a command bunker. I also have 32 tree bases ( size GW flying base ), a full river set, bridge, 6' of walls, stumps and mushroom pods (from mercmini's nice), other misc stuff , some armorcast ruined walls no other buildings though.  Also have plenty of mini's if someone needs something they dont have or is'nt painted. Thanks Phil

Dexcon and the Megabash all in a space of 6 weeks and with in 3 weeks of Origins - that will take some financial planning

I agree with Top on this.  Too much too close together.  I think these events will steal people from each other.  I was considering the Megabash but I won't be able to muster the funds or time off after hosting Origins again this year.

With 1 month to go what kind of head count are we going to have? I'll be there. Archer's running and playing in the event. Who else is a definite?

Ill be there sometime Friday afternoon. If you are going to be there around that time and are looking for a game or two drop me a line and Ill be happy to oblige. I can use DL, Cyber or Capitol if you are looking for a specific battle.

  Hmmm....

  Sounds like a possibility.  I have a game Thursday Night and Friday Afternoon (2pm) I am running.  If you can make the Friday game, I'd be happy.  "Bolters and Claws: The Last Stand of the 9th Marines"; its a UWZ game using figures converted for use in Warzone.  So far in tests, the Converted forces have taken a pounding but have dished a bit out too in testing against two talented opponents.

  I need a third for a solid baseline of expected results for them.  You game? (I know Phil is...)

  As for tourney,  Here is hoping we get a kick-ass showing of folks
