Red Claw Gaming

The HORDES Evolution Stampede event is now confirmed. It's going to be on Saturday, October 20th. There's space for 15 players, and from the look of things those spots are going to go pretty quickly, so I suggest that you sign up as soon as possible. You can sign up through the online store (HERE) or in the store.

The rules are available in the Files section of the Red Claw site and on the Privateer Press site. If you have any questions post them here.

Half of the Tournament spots are taken and paid for. If you know someone who is on the fence about this tournament, get them in (or to the webstore) today. I'd like to be able to increase the number of participants, but we cannot physically house more than 7 games of Hordes at a time. Once we have this tourney under our belt we may be able to squeeze more in, but for now it's capped at 15 people. Get your place today!

Are we going with definate 500 pt's or is this debateable i'm curious if anybody would want to go 750? and yes I know 500 is faster I want to see peoples opinions?

Warmachine: Cryx, Khador, Mercs,Pirates
Hordes: Skorne, Circle of Orboros

WHFB: Dark Elves,Tomb kings,Ogre Kingdoms,Warriors of Slaanesh, Daemons of Slaanesh

WH40k: Necrons, Dark Eldar, Daemons of slaanesh

It would be easier to put together a balanced army with 750 points, although I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.  I don't have a strong preference either way, really.

I like 500 pts. Faster games and it will make army building much more challenging.

It's going to be 500 points. The faster games and the army building challenge that General Disarray mentioned fit in very well with the style of the event.

Everyone disbelieves. Atheists just disbelieve one more time than the religious.

Thanks for the offer, but the Battletech league plays until Midnight, and I can't set the tables up until their stuff is gone from them... it'll just end up being a late night!

I just want to thank Tom for Hosting this event, and Jeff for running it, I also want to thank all of those people that came out, I had a Blast... I actually enjoyed a few games a hordes, which, other than the sunday games with my personal group and the occasional games at home with Todd, hasn't been hapening... So thanks everyone.

Not a problem; that's the whole reason I'm open. Thanks to everyone who came down & played. I hope everyone had a good time & enjoyed themselves. Thanks to those of you who helped set up & prep for the tourney; you know who you are, and I appreciate it.

Cheers,

I'd like to thank me for coming out and playing. My presence made the tournament much more enjoyable. I'd also like to congratulate me on winning the Blockade Runner medal!

Thanks Tom and Jeff for running a great event.  I enjoyed the format quite a bit, and I wouldn't mind playing something similar again.  I had lots of fun, and it was kind of neat seeing an all-Hordes event.

My only suggestion would be to allow more time or play even smaller games, so we can fit more battles in.  A 350 point Mangled Metal/Tooth & Claw event in the same format would be a lot of fun. 

edit: apparently the "other" gaming store only had 8 players, so we weren't the only ones with a low-ish turnout.
