Ok, I have a pass for this now. Will send payment this evening.

Luke Cocksedge.

Do we know how this is filling up?

Also are the Strats and Schemes going out in advance or are they on the day, the rules pack did not say.

Thank you

Luke.

I have them as well.

Also if you use Yin with a Shikome you can put someone on negative flips for WP and if that model has adversary on it the Shikome can choose WP or DF to attack. 

Izamu never has three attacks as he is always healing himself, with the low DF he is constantly getting hit. I just find he rarely tanks like he should and his hitting power is a bit underwhelming.

Shikome on someone with Adversary, they have a better damage run, positive attack flips and can choose WP or DF to attack. They don't have the really low DF and they are faster than Izamu. In all ways apart from the Armour they are a better choice than Izamu IMO.

Does that mean the Hall of Fame is ranked??

Ok, paid up now to sort out somewhere to stay Friday night.

Luke Cocksedge

Mine comes with all its terrain, so that is the whole thing sorted for you.

I will bring my Bendy Board so that's one table for you, but will be on the morning of the event.

I'm hoping I can make it, I'm at TTN on the Sunday so could make it into a road trip.

Got my ticket, same weekend as Santuary event so might try to do both in a road trip.

I have no skills in this area but would be more than happy to help towards any costs for those involved.

I'm very interested, I take it like all the showdowns it is ranked?

Will I have to fight bugs to gain Citizenship ?

Seems a silly idea as "Doms rent boys" have won every team event that has ever been held.

So who's throwing their hat in the ring for "Doms Welsh rent boys"?

I would be interested.

As it says, I'm looking for Gaki and happy to pay paypal inc postage. If anyone has any for reasonable price let me know.

Luke.

Do you want to sell the Gaki, I'm in the UK and happy to pay paypal inc postage?

Nope.

I thought the scoring system was an excellent idea, not just because I came second instead of third. In round 1 I had blu tac , always a truly hard game. As a random draw rather than Swiss it is the most varied of all the draws. It was a close game so on VP diff I was playing someone who had either also had a narrow loss or maybe a draw in round one so hardly the easy route. Then by round three you getting into true Swiss. By round 4 I was on table 2, never going win as someone on table 1 was going away with 4 wins but playing the 3rd or 4th best result after 3 rounds.

Now you might ask why I like this scoring system or even why I think it is fairer system? Well it all starts at the 2014 GT, I had Ant round 1, well that's fair enough it's a random draw and you have to beat whoever is in front of you but this is not where it ended. In the following events this year I've had Ben Crowe KOTS twice in round 1, Blu Tac once and Greg the chosen one once.

I think you could even tier the system further, so round 2 would be 4vp, then 5vp from round three on. This would reward players for beating players closer to their ability as they climbed or fell on the Swiss system as the day progressed.

Just my thoughts.

Luke.

I think I'm coming up on my own will confirm as soon as I know more.

In all the rider posts I'm a little surprised by people holding back until turn 3.

Armour 2 is considered amazing on other models but Riders can get this by throwing in the right card on turn 2. Also most other Neverborn beatsticks are very low DF, so hooded has a massive advantage here. Turn one ok you have to keep him out of sight but you have plenty of movement to get him into a better position. Turn two you can pick someone up for the push, then charge and have a 3" engagement range, this threat range is huge with such a powerful beater. You also have another nasty model now in range hopefully to charge in.

Luke.

I'm happy to bring my Bendy Board and terrain but will not be down until Sunday morning. Let me know if you want it Ben.

Luke.

Ok, I'm in will talk to Martin tomorrow morning on way to Show of Hands

Paid as well.
