Fluffycon 2012 at Battlecry

[Reid]

Not too many days to go now....

In fact, if you want to register you really need to have done so by this Friday. We'll try and accomodate anyone registering in the last week, but that'll be subject to even numbers etc.

So far the field looks like (name / paid / list submitted)....
Andy Potter / yes / yes
Nick Irvine / yes / yes
Mike King / yes / yes
Michael Coxon-Baines / yes / yes
James Brown / yes / no (but Skellie is helping with yours)
Raymond Dick / yes / no
Phil Comins / yes / no
Nick Buckby / no / yes
Noel Tobin / no / no
Phil Wu / no / no (but Skellie is going to do your list for you  )
Paul Clarke / no / no
Paul Davison / no / no

FYI, I am relying on updates from the Battlecry organisers for the rego info - so my info might be a day or so out of date if you've registered or paid over the weekend.

For those of you that haven't paid - if you could sort that out. Skelator is going be at City Guard this Sunday for anyone that wants to hand over their cash.

For those of you that need to get your lists in, note that d-day is this Friday in Excel format please - no army builder would make my life a lot easier. Big thanks to the 5 guys that have gotten their lists in already.

FYI, Skelator will be playing on the weekend but will have something suitably fluffy and is in-eligible to win anything. He has been working very hard on some pretty terrain, so looking forward to some suitably well dressed tables.

I've very happy with the 5 lists at a glance so far. Nothing OTT and definitely some stuff that you wouldn't normally see!

While we won't be rivalling Equnox's field of 50, I'm really looking forward to a chilled weekend of fluffy-goodness.

Cheers

FluffyCon is usually my favorite event of the year. I'm surprised to see few entrants from the CityGuard!
Cmon guys, you're going to get all the filth out of your system at Equinox, so why not indulge the 'other side' of the hobby at FluffyCon

[SKELATOR]

yer come on guys ,takes real skill to with play without all those broken toys 

[Fujin]

Just about organised some fluffy (and furry!) death. Will fire some cold, hard cash at you on Sunday Skellie - will you be there at 1pm or later?

[SKELATOR]

1pm,would you like a game.

[Fujin]

I'd love a game but I'm afraid I can't stay. just want to make sure I can drop by and pay ASAP as I'll have wife/kids in the car. How much is it again?

[SKELATOR]

ok.not sure $35 i think

[nik_]

Golly but you can fit an awful lot into 2000pts when you try! That's 274 models!!!


Oh, and I hereby publicly, officially and with a large leather glove slap Nick Irvine in the face, demand honour be satisfied, and that he accept the call to a first round grudge match!

[SKELATOR]

nice list dave,hope it as been approved,

[Fujin]

Based on what's available I'll be finding it a challenge to make a worse list. Besides, I have so much street cred... bah-humbug to your "approved" nonsense. I've approved it already


Step up Nick. Don't let 3-1 outnumbering stop you from throwing yourself in front of the pain train.

If it helps sell the concept - our game will my first using Skaven

[nik_]

Nightrunners? Jezzails? Censer bearers? Are those units even from the Skaven book? Never heard of them!
(nice list Dave!)

You're on Dave, grudge accepted! I'm hoping we have a repeat of the amazing 'flee through the entire rest of your army' Empire debacle

[Fujin]

yeah, thanks for the reminder of that rather heinous gaming episode. Damn those accursed Waywatchers!!

[Raymond]

Jez thats a lot of rats

Reid are you sure 2 treb's is not fluffy??

I'm packing Reids Brett's ...currently looking like 32 knights plus some peasants

[SKELATOR]

evan using one is not, mre peasents 

[Raymond]

Skelator - but they are peasants.....j ust ones that happen to have a contraption that throws a bloody big rock

As much as I'd like to add more WS2 Ld 5; .....Fluffy Reid doesn't have the figures
......hmmm looks like a slave - only double the cost and doesn't get to add ranks to ld .......remind me again why I'm taking any

[SKELATOR]

one its fluffy,two i have a unit of 42 + a hero for them, no excuse now

[Fujin]

This is going to be one heck of a pillow fight...

[SKELATOR]

hey might start on you soon

[SKELATOR]

Ray,fluffycon is all about taking units that you would not normly take,
i see with 32x knights,2 x blocks of MOA + archers +fastcav + a treb or pegs would fit the bill.
 

ps phil hows that list coming on

[Raymond]

But thats my point Reid says that he'd take M@A even to equinox and that they're really useful; plus it should be twin trebs or nought,
Reid only has 1 treb so if he took Bretts to equinox that woud mean nought, and he'd take M@A to equinox

So using your about taking units that you would not normly take
That would mean for fluffy I should have a treb or two  and no M@A

Ps. can you tell I've been schooled by Vod on how to talk a list down

I could alway take his Darkies no pendant, dagger, egg, no shadow mage,
no shades, black guard, 

so that means witches with a cauldron...see very themed as well

[Raymond]

This is going to be one heck of a pillow fight...

Apparently my M@A have a polearm....so no pillows here; apparently that makes them useful as they're S4

As its fluffycon and in the interest of staying fluffy and in line with WYSIWYG I'll concede that my M@A were out late the night before and forgot where they left there pole's....and so will resort to using there trusty swords; and those nicely painted shields.

[SKELATOR]

and you wonder why Vod does not play these type of tournies ! .
submit, your list and we will see what we can do,

[Raymond]

glen how about

master, ha, sh, cloak, lance, cold one
master BSb ha, sh, cloak, lance, cold one
Level 2 (Dark) with tome
Level 1 (dark)

30 spear fc
18 xbow fc
24 corsairs fc
5 dark riders xbow

5 harpies
5 cold one knights fc
1 chariot
24 witches fc

[SKELATOR]

[Gas_Monkey]

Hey Glenn if I can grab your book Sunday I'll submit my list ASAP. I've got a good idea what it will look like. Cheers James

[SKELATOR]
