Grasshopper’s 40K League
Can the Imperium defend itself against the heretics who are attacking it? Can the forces of chaos and the beasts of deep space tear their way through the Imperial forces? This is your chance to prove that not only is your side the best, but that the other side is a bunch of wimps!
All players will be divided into two teams to determine the fate of the universe over four weeks of events. You get points for every event you participate in and extra points for winning!
In order to accommodate as many people as possible over the next few weekends (including the 4th of July weekend), we have changed the schedule to the following:
Friday, June 18th – 6:30 pm Kill Team Event
Get your Kill Teams ready to rumble. We'll be announcing more info on this mission shortly. (We're trying to wait for people to sign up so that we can make it appropriate for the armies likely to be fighting in it.)
Saturday, June 26th 2:00 pm In-Store Painting Contest
Bring in an unpainted vehicle (or walker or skimmer) from your army and get ready to paint! The vehicle should be pre-primed, pre-converted and ready for painting. Everyone who participates gets points and the people with the best judged models will not only get points for themselves, but points for their team.
Friday, July 2nd 6:30 pm Two Headed Atrocity
A 2 Vs. 2 Tournament! Bring 1,000 points of your army using the standard Organization Chart. If you have a teammate you want to play with you can arrange your partner in advance. Otherwise we will set up teams of two when the tournament begins.
Friday, July 9th 6:30 pm Spearhead Battle
Side Vs. Side Spearhead Battle! It's a giant tank battle in the city! We'll be playing Imperium Vs. Enemies of the Imperium. Each player will get 600 points to build a Spearhead unit/army with. Players should have 1,200 points available so that we can be sure we have even points on both sides of the table.
Open Gaming:
Want extra points? Earn an extra point for every game played against a player from the other team. Just schedule a game to be played in the store. Winner will receive 2 points and the loser 1 point. Each player can gain a maximum of 5 points through Open Gaming.
Points and standings will be recorded every week on the website. The winner will receive a FREE COPY of the new 8th Edition Rulebook! We'll be moving right into a Warhammer Fantasy League once the 40K League ends, so it will be a great way to get ready for a great summer of gaming. Other prizes will be awarded to top finishers.
There will be a $5.00 entry fee for the League, and all entry fees will go toward prizes.
You can register for the League by email or in the store. Make sure you tell us what army you're playing so we know what side to put you on. Oh, and yes, you do have to play the same army for the entire League (different configurations each week of course.)
On Saturday, July 10th the day after the 40K League ends, we will be running a special FANTASY 8TH EDITION LAUNCH EVENT! This event will run all day and also have various prizes for each event during the day.
OK, that's it! Hope to see everyone on the battlefield soon!
