Monday 25th

George

Hi everyone, I should be back in Scarborough on Monday night (weather permitting). I'll be bringing along my MTG but I'd like to arrange a huge game of either 40k, Lord of the Rings or Armies of Arcana. What do people fancy joining in with? Whichever it is it has to be BIG.
Hope to see you all on Monday!

Sim

I would like a LOTR game, need to remind myself of rules!

George

If its Lord of the Rings, you need to read the rules for war of the ring so we can do a larger scale battle without the tediousness! But i am up for Lord of the Rings, I can use my new Dwarfs!

Sim

Don't we need movement trays to end the tediousness?

Wookie

i'll have my Warmachine alongif that fails, or my Dwarves for Armies of Arcana. I should be able to manage about 3000 points, long as you don't mind bare models. only just got them...

George

they help but i think there are different rules for combat as well so they aren't necessary . Mostly though the tediousness comes from the fact that to kill anyone you need a six, most commonly anyway.

Chris

I'm not working on Monday so I can get down at a reasonable time. I'll bring AoA as every time I don't I get into trouble!

George

Shall we have a big game of AoA since people seem to be keen on that at the moment? I would like to use my Tomb Kings which are now painted nicely by Ian. I haven't had a chance to use them since!

PaulTattoo

I am down on monday and am hopefully having a MTG session with james so your are welcome to join in that if they want?

George

yeah i would love to play some MTG with you guys . Paul and james, are you gonna join in with AoA?

TomasLenton

Anyone up for 40k?

Krypter

I could bring 40k I guess. Was hoping to see introduce you to Denny's new friends tho How many pts?

TomasLenton

Let's do both ;-)

TomasLenton

I only have 1000-1250ish of 40k I'll put a list together now

PaulTattoo

Dont think I will have time to play AoA and MTG and have to leave at 10ish so just gonna play MTG

Sim

I have loads of magic cards and no interest in the game, so I've created my own wargame with them. Works with 2 or 4 players. Needs playtesting!

Wookie

Oh? I might bring my deck down then. I keep forgetting to break it down and stick it on Ebay.

PaulTattoo

sounds interesting, will have to give it a whirl sometime!
Am on a bit of a MTG crusade at the moment trying to get it played more ar SGS and maybe get some more folks into it.
Looking forward to a good few games tonight, may even win a few:)

Chris

Good game last night! My plans were only ruined by my inability to hit the wily wardancers, and by the fact that half my knights were turned into the undead, and I had to spend half the game fighting them off!

PaulTattoo

Cracking MTG seesion last night!
Won a few and lost a few but I seem to be getting the hang of it the more I play. Cheers to james for being a great opponent:)
rematch soon me thinks

Sim

Wood Elf reinforcements are on route to continue the defence of the forests. We have learned artillery is best taken in droves, and elementals and golems are troublesome. Fun game!

JamesThePervySage

Yeah Really Good games Last night Paul! I hope you understood my ramblings on deck contruction.......I am looking for some Red/green cards for you!

PaulTattoo

Yeah cheers, it made sense but its get easy to get overwhelmed cos there are so many cards to choose from when deck constructing.
I liked the way by 2 decks played just think they need tweaking a bit and maybe swapping some creature/instants in and out?
Your exalted deck and life deck are a bugger to beat but hopefully once I get the hang of it I may see more victories.
You around next monday for a few more games?

JamesThePervySage

i Think your R/G deck is good just needs some Tweaking, Your U/W needs some work... but not seeing them laided out i am unsure what to put in without spoiling your suprises lol!
Have alook at this website i found it a couple of days ago, it will help you in the right direction

Hmm. The 4 snapcasters in the sideboard cost roughly three times the rest of the deck... I'm guessing you'll not be adding them.

A reccomendation: Instead of the bounce spells and enchantments, put some actual removal (eg. murder) in there.

JamesThePervySage

i pulled a Obzedat, Ghost Council Foil today just checked Troll trader and its £26 haha

yeah i am not putting Snapcasters in and i was adding some removal spells, was just using that deck as a base i am still missing some of the monsters mainly the phantasms and 2 wraiths.

George

The AoA game was good fun, I learnt that even my Skeleton archers can be dangerous in numbers and that mummies are kick-ass and dragons are still awful... Chariots, catapult and skele horsemen being glued as we speak.

Jswiers

>> i pulled a Obzedat, Ghost Council Foil today just checked Troll trader and its £26


You can buy them for £19 actually, but its still a good pull. Troll Trader are not reliable for pricing. They like to gouge on prices.

JamesThePervySage

Yeah Troll trader is overpriced but they near enough control the Ebay market =( Who do you use to price check?

Jswiers

Scroll trader are by far the cheapest vendors of singles. I price according to them.
