Just realised not been to a tournament for 4 months, going to try to get along to this one.

As a quick note, Mike (BigBelcher) has had a bit of a conversion fever, so after finishing his fully converted skaven-less Underworld team (that he only started on Sunday - git!

), he's decided to make a 4-way Mega-bowl board.

So if it's finshed in time, and IF the bottom 4 players after round 5 are happy to play on it, the final round will be a Megabowl game.
This is not complusory, so if anyone doesn't want to play it, it won't be used. This was as much a surprise to me as to anyone else, so I did tell him I wouldn't make it an official rule for the tourney.

Payment sent.

I've booked a room in the Bishops Blaize Inn Saturday night, there's a spare bed if anyone needs somewhere to stay.

So, what teams are people taking? I should have Chaos Pact, I'd like to see what they're like to coach and it'd be cool to coach a bashy team for a change. What about other people though, will there be a hoarde of necromantic teams like last year.... and is gazza going to take pro elves with a reserve r apothecary for a change?

If I play, Halflings with Puggy, Chef and no hope.

That said, of the 3 pre-tourney practise matches, I won 2 (Dark Elf and Chaos Dwarf) and lost a heartbreaker to dwarfs 2-1 where it was only a failed GFI that stopped me from scoring the winning TD.

Which of course means I won't make a single TD.

Just as long as they dodge like the underworld did

No elves for me this time, had my fix of just turning up with 11 players. Four Ogres, 10 Snotlings and a bit of chainsaw mayhem from Nobbla is the order of the day.......so last place is a cert!

Looks like the Stunty Cup is a go.

15 Maruaders, 1 Minotaur, 3 re-rolls, 4FF looks like a good one for you...

Just a quick note - if you know your NAF number, please let me know what it is in the morning (or put it on your roster), as the NAF site currently doesn't show them (without me having to search through the forum there).

I'm currently experiencing a powercut, so I have no PC access at home, so any problems, phone me on the contact number in the rulespack.

ANd my daughter says:

Kids eh?

What your daughter has put makes a lot more sense than half the stuff you put on
