One Week to Go!!!!
If you are close to Columbus Ohio, and plan to attend the Origins Game Fair on June 23-27, there is 40k to play!
I am part of the 40kOrigins game club, dedicated to bringing 40k fun to Origins Game Fair.
Our submitted schedule (confirmed by the Origins staff)
Tournaments - (with prize support!)
June 24 (Thursday), all day 750 point Pairs Tournament - Come and double your fun by teaming up with another player for 2 vs 2 Warhammer 40K combat. Bring a 750 point army and a buddy -- or, if you don't have a buddy we'll find you one! For 6-24 Players. Event #1900
