WH Fantasy 2010 Summer League! Starts 7/26/10!

Warhammer Fantasy League

The winds of magic are changing; the world is changing. The Warhammer world has been rocked by the energies of chaos, and mysterious new woods, bogs and all sorts of dangerous forces of natures are appearing across the land. Armies now muster for control of the altered countryside. To hesitate is to be destroyed.

The league will start at 1000 points, which is the average for most battalion with one hero (some are outliers). The league will be 10 weeks long and will begin July 26th. Since this is a brand new edition, the league fee will only be $5 just to try out new lists and meet the community! Every two weeks the point values will increase 250 points. The point costs are a maximum, so you can still play with less than the listed amounts.

Here is the breakdown on the weekly points:

Week Point Value
1(July 26-August 5nd) 1000
2 1000
3 1250
4 1250
5 1500
6 1500
7 1750
8 1750
9 2000
10(Oct 4th- 10th ) 2000

*Note that the launch party is an extra day for the league and will give players a bonus*

Bigger games will NOT count for more. We are trying to encourage new players and new armies. Scenarios will be rolled for in the 8th edition of WFB. Follow set up as read in the rulebook for the scenario you and your opponent decide upon. After setting up, turn d3 pieces of terrain into mysterious terrain from the new edition. IE: Mysterious woods, marshes etc.

-Call ahead to reserve a gaming table for yourself and your opponent to guarantee your space. Monday nights will be the official league night, which guarantees the most room for Fantasy players to schedule your games. Games can be played during the weekdays and cannot start any later then 7pm. All games will last 6 turns unless TIME is called. Sunday games should be scheduled in two shifts, 12-3pm & 3-6pm.

-All League games must be played in the store.

-If you can’t attend a scheduled game, you must notify your opponent 3 hours in advance to avoid default. If you don't your opponent gets an automatic win. A league contact sheet will be posted and sent out to our mailing list.

-Models must at least be primed; all units must be represented by an appropriate model/s. If there is something in your army that is not WYSIWYG, you must inform your opponent.

-As new supplements come out, we will incorporate them into the league. You MUST have a copy of the rules with you at the game (GW Standard).

D&D Encounters: Dark Sun

D&D Encounters: Dark Sun
Starts June 9th and ends September 1st.
Enter a harsh world, where rolling fields of green, of shining knights and robed wizards, and divine pantheons are replaced by seas of sand dunes, bloodthirsty raiders, greedy slavers, savage beasts, and uncivilized wastelands. Newcomers to Athas have many things to learn about this world, so should tread lightly, and be aware of all.
This season, all players will use the pre-generated characters. Players cannot bring in their own characters to D&D Encounters: Dark Sun sessions, as this season is a preview of the upcoming material, and the typical fantasy stereotypes don’t apply to the Athasian heroes. The characters should be returned to the DM’s after each session so that new players can use them too. Game time starts at 7:30 pm, and since the campaign is spread out throughout the summer, only one encounter will be played each session, and each will run about 2 hours long. Players will gain points, along with gold, gear, and experience, to earn themselves D&D prizes. Sign up today and reserve a spot to play.
