News
- We’ve got the poll results in from BAO attendees. Again, this is ONLY for the BAO. We will shape the ITC format a little further down the road with more experience. Also, the BAO will be live-cast on our Twitch Channel! Make sure to
- So it was a lot closer than I anticipated but I would imagine that that is because we are so early in to the edition. However, the BAO community did vote to go with more traditional tournament style missions with both end of game and progressive objectives.
- This was the most contentious question this time around as expected. Whenever you talk about not allowing certain models, folks get passionate about it which is understandable. However, by a 2:1 ratio the BAO community decided they did not want to use the very big toys this time around. However, on a personal note this to me indicates that there are more folks that do want to use the big boys than I expected. A great solution in my mind is to offer “Gladiator” style format events wherein folks can use all of their big toys. For larger events like the LVO, this is a great alternative format or a Sunday event.
- GW had announced that the Space Marines codex is coming out later in July which would put it very close to the BAO. They also announced 10 Dexes this year, so there is a possibility of another one out before the BAO, so we asked if folks were ready for that. The answer was no. That makes sense to me as everything is so new, but this also puts another nail in the coffin of the argument that anything that helps marines always wins the vote as that simply is not true. Case in point.
- Get pumped! The LVO 2018 Registration will be opening, soon! You can also book your hotel room, now. This is going to be an absolutely incredible event. Tournament attendance is swelling and we anticipate this to be a record breaking LVO!
- Tonight’s game features the Salty Banana, himself with his Grey Knights vs. Pascal the Painter’s very awesome Chaos army! Tune in at 5pm to our Twitch Channel to join in on the fun!
