OMG FoW tournament @ cangames

A game for those who like their World War II re-enactments very, very small.

That's cool it's good to change things up anyways I guess, it's tough sometimes deciding what game to play.

I am thinking along opposie lines as you guys, I will probably use the new version of 40k to just drop it altogether the same way I did for Fantasy, as I pretty much only play it a few times a year now anyway. I was suprised there wasn't more people playing 40k this year, and the fantasy tournament didn't seem very big either, but on the other hand there was 15 people playing in the DBA tournament Sunday night.


Thanks;
Mike

Remind me.. is DBA the 15mm scale ancients game? or the 15mm Napoleonics-style one? (Cannons, Horse, Muskets)

Yeah, enough of us are wanting to try 40k 6th Ed for Skirmish so we decided not to run a FoW for this time. I'm sure we will be back at a future event though!


Oh we will be back alright, but we have to pay some respects to our forefathers (40k) every now and then, lol. Hoping 6th edition isn't what the rumours make it out to be.
Current Project: Painting/assembling Tau
Current Playable Armies: MW & LW USA - most lists available (FoW), Space Marines (40K), Imperial Guard (40K), Cygnar (Warmachine)
Future Projects: New Marine army @ 1850 (40K), LW US Infantry Army in Winter Gear @ 1780 (FoW), LW Canadian Infantry Army @ 1780 (FoW)

DBA is the ancients game, I used a Samurai army. Every army is made up of 12 bases with generally 3 or 4 miniatures per base + a camp (objective).

Shame there won't be a tournament at Skirmish, but I am looking forward to the 1 in July, time to start working on the next army I supose.


Thanks;

that was a real close game, the 45mm guns just shredded your PnZIII's
