Big Apoc Game sometime?

[Emperor Fooble]

Wondering if there is any interest in a big Apoc game at some point? does not have to be at a club meet. I've got about 8-9000pts of Chaos (maybe more), none of which are super heavies that I think would be fun to plonk down on a table in one game.

Ideally I would be looking at 2-3 people sized game so it does not carry on forever and maxed lists are uneccecary.


if someone wanted really epic I could pool my armies and hit well over 20,000 pts, around 16k+ of evil for a themed match but I dont want to go that big any time soon, the horror of transportation scares me.

[Righteous]

hmm only have like 6000 points but sure!

i could probs pull off about 4-5000 points of orks/chaos marines at max. but then again i really don't like the idea of having to transport that much crap. might just bring one army or the other one day.

I would like to see pictures of these type of things. Especially if they are fully painted

[SH4DOWSL4Y3R]

painting that many models would take a hell of a lot of inspiration. it isn't exactly super fun painting batches of 20 or so orks. (well at least to a good standard anyway) but i do agree that it would be awesome.

[Emperor Fooble]

I was gonna take some piccies, but I cant do fully painted

Most apoc battle reports are mostly made from bare grey and underrcoat

[Righteous]

if i took a weekend dedicated to it i could probably manage to paint the rest of my army up. but i wont... so i cant.

I'd be up for it if its after my exams.

Most of my SM are painted (8 guys out of 5000pts) but i'll be spending my time painting my nids.

I probably have 10,000ish points. (That includes my homemade special characters, plus Eldar, Inquisition, Space Marines

I would be in for it after exams too... Once I work out whether or not I am working full time for the holidays.

[Maudy]

I have two painted space marines. I'm pretty sure they could take you guys in a fight

One idea could be to set a date in the future for this battle and then try to get as much painted for it as possible. Rules being, whatever is painted, you can use in the battle. You probably won't get everything done, but at least it'll give you incentive to get most of them base coated!

[Crivens]

Okay, I'll do it after exams. I have somewhere in excess of 10,00pts of DA and Nids

[CYPHER]

OK so far I've estimated about 60,000pts.

If we're going to do that many points i say we separate into rough areas for were each person can deploy so their not walking around the table all the time. As well as impose time limits such as 5mins per phase with breaks after each turn.

This is gona be great fun.

+1 to what maudy said about setting a date to have everything painted by. Maybe two  different sessions (one huge and one painted).

[SH4DOWSL4Y3R]

will this be an all on all or a rough "good vs evil" type thing? cause i'll just bring my chaos marines and join the fray one one side. oh, and i may as well bring Big Stompy(Kustom Stompa) too.

[Emperor Fooble]

Wow if you really wanna go it all some day, I has:


8-10,000pts Chaos Marines pending upgrades and finding everything that I have
4500pts or thereabouts of Necrons
4000pts or so of Space wolves (Deathwatch + my other dudes)
2000pts+ of my Penal IG in the works
1500pts Ravenguard
3-4000pts Orks

I think thats the lot....but its constantly expanding!!! (nope, forgot the Orkses)


Mmmm painting challenge. No.
But there are a few little things that at some stage i am going to have an extended sit down with Maudy until I learn how to do them! Which will see my Ravenguard and CSM progressing pretty fast!

[Drasnighta]

Hmmm...  Too bad....  Too bad I'm over here now...

2 Reavers and 2 Warhounds...  Backed up with a Baneblade, Shadowsword and 10000 points of Traitor Guardsmen...

I'd take those against most...  At once...

Superheavies are just brutal...
