Our venue is still Fraser High School, but no longer the school hall, we now have 2 of the three gymnasiums.  For those who have played at Over the top or Rallypoint in the last two years, the smaller gym is about the size of the school hall, and the big gym is about twice as large.

rob

Is hayden going to get the 40k pack done? slacker

[Haydn]

40K pack is done and sent out to as many people as I could  I think this was super fast for me since I've been saving the world... If anyone wants it email me and I'll get it out to you ASAP

[Big D]

Any word on a Fantasy players pack yet?

[blood_god]

@ haydn, remember if your sending the player pack out, the attach button is at the top of your screen 

[Rob Shirley]

This Friday night I will be posting the 40K, Fantasy, Warmachine, FoW, Napoleonics material to be put on the Immortals website, Note the second posting above has that web address.

regards,
Rob

[Simon]

the warhammer player pack looks good.

would be nice to have a list of attendees posted here as well like the Natcon thread.

[bartosh]

ohh yeah, got my leave pass from the warden

[Rob Shirley]

Alan McIssac, has just told me taht he cannot get the rules authors of Death Squad to sort out permission in time so he pulled it out of being offered at NICon.

Early Bird entries close on 29 April, then the cost of entering goes up.

40K, Warmachine, DBMM25 are all over the minimum limit already.  40K at 19, waarmachine at 13 and DBMM 8; with Fantasy and FoW naffing around below the minimum 8 at present.  There is also an unknown genre entrant called Matthew Lenton, any ideas on him please contact Dory Fisher at dcfisher at orcon dot net dot nz.

I'm pleased with the numbers, they are well up on what had entered a fortnight out from the NatCon early bird fee closure of two years ago.

Regards,
Rob

[Big D]

I'm coming, just gotta sort out some cash for entry fee, which I will have by Easter.

[Chaoswolf]

We've been naffing, we're sorry, and we'll redeem ourselves for WFB shortly

[Rob Shirley]

120 + entries so far.
All of 40K, Fantasy, Warmachine, Fow (MW) and DBMM25 are confirmed as going ahead.
Napoleonics is less than the required number to be a competition.

Regards,
Rob

I so love the fact that I don't know and/or have never played 3/4 of the Fantasy field.

[Chaoswolf]

You probably have really...

[Fujin]

Fantasy
Carl Templeton
Daryl Painter
Daniel Butler
Robert Sadler
Reid Pittams
Paul Davison

Seriously, those are the people I've played in that list. I don't remember ever playing Bobby (super stoked if I get to at NiCon). Paul and Reid are regular opponents, Daryl I've played only twice at Auckland events, and I think I've played Rob once. Definitely only played Dan and Carl once.

More of a reason to look forward to this event!

[Vaul]

Awesome warmachine turnout, if there were a lot of warmachine events with that number of attendees in auckland, i'd be more interested in getting involved.

[Chaoswolf]

Yeah, playing Bobby is a reason in itself to attend, never played a nicer guy in my life. Well that's cool, hope a few more flesh out the Fantasy field, and looking forward to it regardless.
