Nagoya Games Day - 24th April 2011

[The Underdweller]

I will be there with 40k hopefully 1000 pts.

I will be there with 40k - I can give you a game if you want

Yes please!
Looking forward to it, in the morning right?

Sounds good!
Yep, I'll be there in the morning, until around 1:30 pm.

Hey pal I played Dwarves last time but I don't mind playing Dwarves again if no one else is able or willing. I will be there with my Wood Elves.

Sure, man. Again, it will be my first game, so I expect there will be lots of lumps and bruises afterwards (or after every game of Warhammer here after). Still, I should amply warn you it will be my first game, so expect questions.
Otherwise, is there a number you want to play? 1.5k or more? Also what time do you want to play?

@ Primarch: I want to play Dust, but what time were you thinking of starting?

I have an important deadline just before the Golden Week. I love to be there for a couple of 40K games with my Grey Knights so badly and try to finish my work ASAP, probably I cannot have a game.
Anyway, I will show up to Joshin (it's on my way to office) and have some chat and hopefully lunch with you

At the mo' I am down to play Prim at 40K in the morning. Does anyone want a game of 40K in the afternoon? I really need some practice at 1500pts so would prefer that to a smaller game. If two of you wanna team up on me, we could do a 2:1 at 1500pts (or perhaps a little more).

@Job: Once this thrice cursed NagoyaHammer event is over I am so down for some FOW action. My Soviets have reinforcements at last. The French 2DB are almost ready for the dash to Paris too.

Cheers

Probably around 2ish I guess.

I am playing the underweller in the morning.
I don't know how long a game of dust takes but if there is time afterwards I would like to play you, I can only muster at most a badly planne 1000 pts list though so gotta team up with someone.

[Primarch]

I've just sat down and played a couple of practice games of Dust Tactics against myself. 1 game takes about 1 hour depending on how much you try and hide from your opponent.

Well, I'd recommend keeping the points low while you get use to the rules etc, but that is up to you. Both of our armies are high cost armies, so there are not so many models on the table usually anyway. That said, I still think 1500 is a good number, as you suggested. If there is time, we could play a two part battle, two skirmishing parties clash (1000) points and then the two armies meet (2000) points, with some advantage given to the one who wins the skirmish game. Just an idea

I think a game at 1500 would be good to learn at. I'll set up a list.

Cool. We'll have to arrange something afterwards.

@ Primarch. So I was looking at what Dust is online. How many models do you need to play a game?

@ Primarch. So I was looking at what Dust is online. How many models do you need to play a game?

The exact number that come in the box.
A small game would be 10 infantry models and maybe a mech. The boxed set comes with 15 infantry, 2 mechs and a character for the axis and the allies for a full sized game. You can also expand the game by combining two or more sets if you wanted.
