Hey there lads. Ive decided that drop pods are a waste of time so im selling my 3. They are all fully assembled to a high standard (no an inch of flashing left) and are all primed well with citadel skull white spray primer. One is mostly painted with a thin layer of mordrian blue foundation but can be easily painted over. Im selling em for 40$ each so give me a pm if you are keen. I can also throw in either the deathwind launcher or stormbolter attachments if you want em. Get in quick before i throw em on trademe. Tell your friends.

So this is tomorrow at cavs right? what do i need to do if i want to offload some of my spares there? just bring them on the day?


(i know i shouldve sorted this out previously but im totally not an organised sort of person)

Any idea when this will be? Points and format, etc.

Hoping to bring my Angels over to defend the trophy, but half of my November is booked up already!!

I'm looking for a 35pt game with my Skorne on the 9th. I want 1 more practice run before Genesis!

Looking for a Christchurch person to run the DBA competition at WarClouds, Waitangi Weekend, Saturday February 5th or Sunday February 6th 2011.

800pts lists from any book.
4 games over 2 days.
Probably 4 hours per game unless anyone wants less.
Brian is playing in the junior ancients competition (DBA) and has agreed to vet the lists.
Richard has agreed to handle the draws and scoring as he did at the Mid-Winter Joust.
Andre will act as umpire subject to work commitments.

regards
Brent

Anyone keen for a game this Sunday?

I finally got around to popping into GW St Lukes to spend my $25 gift voucher from a competition earlier this year.

Although it says redeemable @ any GW store in NZ, the chap @ the counter had to check via phone with high command because it was stamped on the back with an aussie address. The powers that be decided it could not be accepted here but would be fine in Australia.

Now I am going to oz next month but I might have used it to wipe my arse before then . . .

This looks like a good one, cheap beasts and easy to meet tier requirements!

I'm looking at running another league soon, and I want to know what people would like to play in.
Do you want a competative league, with placings and prizes? A narrative league with story driven missions? A beginners league with low point values and steady growth to build armies and encourage new players? Maybe a league that's a bit different with special rules and oddball missions?
Please post and let me know what sort of league would inspire you to take part.

Looking for a Genesis practice game at the 25 or 35pt level. I have an experimental Mordikaar list to try out!

The company that hosts the South Island Wargaming site is having a brief scheduled server outage on Saturday 4th September at 11am (NZ time).

This means you won't be able to access the forum at that time. They didn't say for how long but hopefully it won't be too big an inconvenience.

Hey all, just putting together a vanilla dex SM army and am after a few odds and ends:

2 x Multimelta ( I know, I know...)
1 x Heavy Bolter
1 x Power Fist

Live in Christchurch

Cheers

Chaos Bowl at Conquest 2010

Special Rule: Winds of Chaos
The Winds of Chaos are blowing full force for the Chaos Bowl, causing mass mutation amongst spectators & players!

1. Prior rolling for Weather at the start of each match, each player randomly selects a player using a D20 (rerolling if no player with that number, until a numbered player is rolled) this player has spontaneously mutated!!!
2. To determine which Chaos God bestows their ‘gift’ on the ‘lucky’ player, roll a D8 on the following table:
1-2 Tzeentch
3-4 Nurgle
5-6 Slaanesh
7-8 Khorne
3. Roll a D6 on the appropriate God table to determine mutation:
Tzeentch
1 Two Heads
2 Extra Arms
3 Sneaky Git
4 Strip Ball
5 Hail Mary Pass
6 +MA

Nurgle
1 Foul Appearance
2 Disturbing Presence
3 Thick Skull
4 Guard
5 Regeneration
6 +AV

Slaanesh
1 Claw
2 Tentacles
3 Dodge
4 Shadowing
5 Nerves of Steel
6 +AG

Khorne
1 Horns
2 Dirty Player
3 Frenzy
4 Piling on
5 Mighty Blow
6 +ST

4. This player has this skill until the end of the match unless…
5. If the player already has a) the ‘gifted’ skill, b) a Double skill, c) 2 Single skills or d) is a Star Player they mutate into in Gibbering Spawn until the next match and are unable to play. Fortunately, a lineman of the now defunct Halstad Hecklers is available to take his place for the match (Human Lineman with Loner skill, I’ll provide the figure).
6. Chaos, Nurgle & Chaos Pact team players reroll the result once instead of being turned into a Gibbering Spawn (starting at Step 1.) but may not replace the player with a Halstad Heckler if the second result also results in a Gibbering Spawn.
