Throwing down the gaunlet 2010

Post by Gaijin18 »

Hello fellow bartertowners thought I would post this and say that any and all that want to are welcome to come,whether you have 100 points or 100,000 pts.

We are going for a world record this year.
I will personally be fielding around 40,000 pts myself.
This is not a game of who wins and who looses but as to how much cool stuff we can put down and play with for 12 hours,its a blast.

This is right up in my neck of the woods.
I might (MIGHT!) show up to hang out a bit, meet some locals, etc., but i DEFINITELY won't be playing.

It's a big *ss game on the freaking FLOOR.
LOL That's just too much for me. : )

I never hear anything bad about it, though.

If I end up making it (or, even if not), we'll have to arrange a BTown "meet & greet" at some point for those of us who are heading there.

At some point, we're going to have to meet up at Miniature Market, for sure.

It does seem like a waste to go to Siege World and not get in SOME KIND of a game, though. : )

Re: Throwing down the gaunlet 2010

my first numbers were abit off

And Siegeworld 2010 - Storm the Citadel...

Most Points in a single game: 382,000+ (New Record)(painted)

Most painted tanks in a single game: 1100+

Most points in a single battle: 433,000+ (New Record)(counting unpainted)

Most Miniatures in a single battle: 6500+ (New Record)

Congratulations guys. Even with over 70,000 points not being able to make it due to last minute emergencies. The prior marks are still, well and truly, crushed.

We are also the first group (although with unpainted minis) to play a 400K game of 40K
