MARINES AND KNIGHTS OVER MIAMI May 21st - 23rd 2010!!
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I present to you with the base information regarding our resurgance of our major gaming event.
Marines and Knights Over Miami
Marines and Knights (known as MKOM henceforth) was previously a large GW gaming convention that took place right here in Miami, Florida. The last event was hosted at UM's convention center about 4 to 5 years ago. With Joel's relocation to a larger store, he wanted to try and start up the convention again.
As such, for this year's event we will hosting it at SAG. I hope that next year (with a good event this year) that we will be able to move to a larger facility, as well as get on the GW circuit.
The Convention will open at 5 pm on Friday, May 21st and run through 10 or 11 pm on Sunday, May 23rd. Events include the following:
Young Gamers 40k Mini-Tournament (Friday Night)
4 Game 40k GT event (Saturday All Day)
4 Game Fantasy GT event (Sunday All Day)
Apoc Mega-Battle (Sunday Afternoon)
Fantasy Siege Mega-Battle (Saturday Afternoon)
Gladitor Arena of Death (Fantasy on Saturday, 40k on Sunday)
Painting Sessions (both detailed and speed painting)
Other specialist and mini-games (details on Joel's website)
There will be food and drinks available for dinner on Friday Night, and for lunch and dinner on Saturday and Sunday.
COST: MKOM will have several different purchasing packages. THERE IS NO ADDITIONAL FEE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE TOURNAMENTS.
$15 1 Day Pass
$20 Full Weekend Pass
$25 Full Weekend Pass + 2 Meal Tickets (redeemable for any meal)
Meal Tickets will be purchased through Joel and will include an entree (determined amount later), drink, and chips. Cost TBA
The GT events will be capped at 24 players MAX. Should you not make the initial sign up, you may sign up for "standby." If a player does not arrive for the event on time, you will be allowed to fill in as per the "standby" list.
More details and information will be listed on Joel's website. I wanted to get this information out to the local gaming community first so you guys can save the date on your calendars. We hope to make this a successful event. below is the basic schedule breakdown (a more detailed one will be on Joel's site soon, I will also provide a link).
Friday: Open Gaming, Kids 40k Mini-Tournament
Saturday: 40k 4 Game GT, Fantasy Special Events
Sunday: Fantasy 4 Game GT, 40k Special Events

We can have a 1v1 tourney
Doesn't have to be a tourney, we can do a big scenario game or something. I got most of jerrys old stuff so I got plenty of stuff.

Re: MARINES AND KNIGHTS OVER MIAMI May 21st - 23rd 2010!!
Anybody at all concerned that there's an APOC game, 4 game fantasy tournament, and a gladiator arena of death all happening sunday afternoon?
Not to mention the 40k GT at the same time as a fantasy castle siege.
I know joel has alot of room... but many problems sense I. Jedi Knights we shall need.

I was thinking the same thing. If you have 12 games of 40k going, then I don't see much room for an epic fantasy battle at the same time. Same and vice versa for Sunday - providing through some miracle that 24 show for fantasy.

Re: MARINES AND KNIGHTS OVER MIAMI May 21st - 23rd 2010!!
So many questions!
Details as to the individual tournaments will be up on the website once I finish the prelimilary information.
Yes, Joel accepts Paypal. That will be the preferred method. Also, all rosters etc will be updated on his site.
I posted the information here before we post on other sites so that our LGS folks can get it on your calendars. We hope to bring in some out of town folks for the events as well to fill the ranks.
As for space...
We spent a lot of time going over this in Joel's store and believe that we have found the optimal situation. Joel will be making more tables, so we'll have enough for the event.
The tournaments run all day. The other events however, run in Sessions. There will be a morning session (about 2 to 2 1/2 hours) an afternoon session (5 to 6 hours) and an evening session (2 to 2 1/2 hours). The afternoon sessions are dedicated to the Fantasy Siege and 40k Apoc, respectively. The other sessions (painting, gladiator arena, etc) will take place either in the morning or evening slots. During the breaks my crew will rearrange the tables to facilitate whatever is going on.
Hope that helps! More questions!

I have one: what is this oh-so-mystical site which joel has?
Also, is it possible to pay for the ticket in person? Like, talk to him and pay him in cash?

Sign ups will start next week.
As for paying Joel in person, you'll have to ask him that.

Mike and I (Rob) from the WOTR crowd were wondering if we could do a Siege or just large scale game on that Friday night. I'm assuming the young games tourney won't take up the entire store. Also some of the WOTR guys also play 40k and Fantasy so it would not conflict with the other tournaments. We would be willing to run it just need the table space. And i'm sure approval from Joel.
It would allow all three of Games-workshop's main games to be represented
