VASSAL 40k Season 2

Shamikebab · 1 Jul 2013 at 10:20

7 confirmed now, one more would be a good number

Woogie · 1 Jul 2013 at 11:11

No limitations as such but would need ample notice of a game so I can arrange things around it.

Shamikebab · 1 Jul 2013 at 11:16

Yeah nothing will be rushed, it's a casual thing. The first game and last two games will be the hardest to arrange because we need everyone at the same time (we can always have people use others armies if we really can't arrange a time)

Woogie · 1 Jul 2013 at 11:17

Sounds good, Count me in then, CSM

Where the hell have you been?

Working further afield and afew family health issues to sort etc. Back to normal now though

Could I have an invite to the full monty dropbox please?

Pudney · 1 Jul 2013 at 11:37

I'll join if weekend availability mainly is ok?

Plus if I can get a couple of intro games in vassal in preparation!

Woogie · 1 Jul 2013 at 11:43

People play fairly often Pudney so I cant see a few intro games being an issue. As for weekend availability mine may be simiar to that.

Pudney · 1 Jul 2013 at 11:57

Suppose I better think of which army to play as then!

Shamikebab · 1 Jul 2013 at 12:42

Yeah most games are usually weekends so that isn't a problem. I can do practice games whenever.

Sorry to hear that, good to have you back! I'll send you an invite tonight.

Brabbinho · 1 Jul 2013 at 16:30

Cheers

Pudney · 1 Jul 2013 at 22:16

When do I have to decide on my army then

Brabbinho · 1 Jul 2013 at 22:18

I guess once all the players have been agreed

Shamikebab · 1 Jul 2013 at 22:25

Well we could close applications now, unless anyone else really wants to play. We currently have 8:

Current Player List:

Shamikebab
Pudney
LordHughes - Attackers
JHeaton- Neutral
Brabbinho - Defenders (IG)
No1newts - Defenders
Woogie - Attackers (Chaos Space Marines)
Gooner Leroy - Attackers (Orks)

Destination · 1 Jul 2013 at 23:40

May as well close it, I will try to get enough reading done, and a practice or two on vassal to take over shold a spare be needed.

lordhughes · 8 Jul 2013 at 22:44

Looking for a 1k game this coming sat/sun/mon/tue evenings. anyone fancy it?

Shamikebab · 20 Jul 2013 at 13:08

OK, well some friendlies have been played (well me and John have

)

I think we're ready to finalise teams, Pudney I just need to know which side (attacker, defender, neutral) you want to be. Then I'll set teams, commanders can volunteer and we'll get started!

I've set up a gmail list for everyone, if you don't get my email in the next 5 mins or so, check spam or let me know if I've got the wrong email address (I used the Dropbox ones so if you have another one you use as your main let me know)

Pudney · 20 Jul 2013 at 14:24

I'll be going Eldar so guess that's neutral!

Edit: When will the first game be? Need to organise a couple of small games for the rules and vassal familiarisation. The current weather has not been conducive to such things.

Shamikebab · 20 Jul 2013 at 14:32

A good while I think, I'll give a two week window for submitting lists once we've got teams finalised (which I'll do now)

Shamikebab · 20 Jul 2013 at 14:45

I realised I'd missed the army lists picture from the OP so I've added it now (Under rules)

Shamikebab · 20 Jul 2013 at 15:16

OK I've decided on this as the teams:

Attackers

Gooner Leroy - Orks
LordHughes - Chaos Space Marines
Woogie - Chaos Space Marines
Shamikebab - Eldar

Defenders

No1newts - (Defenders)
JHeaton (Neutral)
Brabbinho - Imperial Guard
Pudney - Eldar

I was going to play a Space Marine list for fluff reasons but I just don't really like any of the current codices, they're either pants (Blood Angels) or only have a few good choices. They all struggle at low point levels as well.

And yes there is an Eldar list on each side (I don't know what Joel is playing so we could have three! If that's the case I'll switch and play something else)

So who wants to be a commander?
