Please reply to sign up.

EDIT: Reasonable proxy models will be allowed for unreleased models and 12/03 beta test models.

So, it looks like somewhere between 8-11 from the Chicago area will be there. Crazy.

Kevin and I should be there.

Hmmm...

Less jazz hands and Rockette kicks.

It is legal to have a falling back model to fall back again. This is how Pandora works.

Note, the models would still take damage for failing a Wp duel within 12" of Pandora.

Marshall.

Playing in Masters, failing to get to Avatars due to forgetting some really obvious action that I set up the turn before, judging all other events with Nix, correcting Nilus's math.

Come join us for an all day Dead of Winter Achievement Event, Saturday, Feb. 16th at the Dice Dojo, 5550 N Broadway, Chicago.

$5 entry fee, door prizes, painting contest and highest scorer prize for the day. Games can begin as early as 10:30 a.m., and the last games will wrap up by 6:30.

This is not a tournament, but an achievement league day. Come late if you need to, leave early if you like, but come have fun all the same.

I do not agree with the sentiment, but I have heard it said that the inability to mix, M&SU Assets and Freikorps hurts the flexilbility of the Faction, but honestly, I think trying to make a 40K gun line with these models will hurt more, because that is not always the best wat to accomplish one's strategy, and schemes.

Fetid Strumpet is correct. Until revealed, the Decoys ARE aColette. Like most avatars, a Colette is not an auto-include, but she is fun.

Well done lighting effects and metal aging. Very good job.
