FOW National Qualifier Saturday June 26th!!

Alright folks, the time has come!

After being pumped up from Recon, and hearing from several out-of-towners who'd be willing to drive down for a big event, we'll be hosting the first ever Miami-Area National Qualifying Tournament for FOW!!

It will be held on SATURDAY June 26th, 2010 with a planned start time of 10:00 am to allow those who are coming in from out of town time to get home at a reasonable hour (this may vary, depending on their requests, but not by more then a couple of hours).

Rounds will be 2.5 hours in length.

Late-War! 1750 pts

3 Rounds

Missions:
1. No Retreat (find online if you don't have it)
2. Breakthrough
3. Fighting Withdrawl

We need at least 12 spots to make it a national qualifier and Battlefront has already promised us additional prize support. We qualify 1 person for every 6 spots we have.

I'd like to try to have an even number of axis & allies, but obviously if we can't be picky we won't be. Please send me a PM of what armies you have and/or plan on bringing, so I can put you down as either Axis or Allied.

Even Bill is going to be there! (he said so himself tonight! Rufus is my witness!)

Sign Up, lets make it happen!

1. Don
2. Rufus
3. Cesar (maybe)
4. Eric (Axis)
5. Ronan (Allies)
6. Little Cesar
7. Stephan
8. Erik
9. Limey
10. Justin Cannon (Axis)
11. Jim Sudduth
12. Gonzalo
13. Ed Leland
14. James Pittman
15. Leo Colon
16. Joey Watts (maybe)
17. Luis (maybe)

Sign up Folks! Sticky Please!

Oh snap, it's on! Sign me up.

Most excellent Scurrdi!

Does Mr. Sunshine have enough fucking tables, you may want to be clear with him before he pulls some really stupid shit and ruin the event.

I will try and contact everyone I know who plays FOW about this.

JerryB

Sign me up as a maybe, got the Ard'Boys like the week before that and not sure how the skirmish is gonna go at the Wife front. Mayeb i'll call the Waaagh on her ..

Do it Luis!

Yes, Eric is in !

sign me up

I do not think Mr. Sunshie has enough buildings, wood, rivers. roads and ECT for that many Flames players. You might want to ask local people (Bill) if they can add some from their personal stockpiles...... just for the event.

Ask Mr. Sunshine if he could use some of the other unopened stuff for terrain. I will be willing to paint it for the event.

Put me down as a maybe...

Don't you mean Eric, since Bill has all my terrain. LOL

I will be asking players to help contribute terrain to make enough "proper" FOW tables. If you have some and I don't know that (I know about Eric, Bill, and Dave) please let me know so I can figure it out.

Got Stephan down and Mike as a maybe.

How many Eric's are there? You have two listed, and you never spell my name right. Are there two?

And I'm playing Axis

Put me down as a maybe. I have a gig I am playing at at in the evening of that day, so the earlier the start for me the better.

I have very limited terrain (a few small hills), but may be able to make some more in time.

Undecided between Brits and Germans right now, as I'm working on both.

Can you use warriors in the lists for the event?

Here is my list (Possible) Tell me what you think.

Looks pretty good, though the Allies are kinda odd. Makes for an interesting set up, as I don't think Allies gain much from your company (can't use CO rerolls I don't think).


List updated!

That is correct, you cannot use the CO for re-rolls or attach them to the squad. Also, if you lose your platoon leader, your CO cannot appoint a new one.

Can you confirm start time? I'd need to be out by 6pm, which may leave me only playing two rounds depending on time between rounds.

Leaning towards German for this tournament, as I'm frantically building my Sperrverband force.

Scratch that. I'll be able to play two rounds only, and will have to leave before 5pm.

Anyone got a problem with that. I'm unlikely to place anyway....

I spoke to Will and his a maybe. I also spoke to Henry, if he makes it back from Minnesota in time, he will most likely play also.

Anyone else?

Start time is set for 10:30 am. Haven't heard from anyone else requested otherwise from the out of towners.

Your fine to play only 2 Rounds Limey, no worries.

I'll add Will and Henry as maybes.

Thanks!

I'll also confirm this will be the first appearance of my Germans....

Henry is out, sorry

Has anyone spoken to Don, Tom or Matt Berry?
