Shoot! Actually can't come. I have a naginata tournament on the 21st. I must have been thinking of the last weekend in August.
Sorry guys!

Two games are fine for me. 750pt game is convenient for me. How about you?
I've almost built Konflict 47 staffs as below.
U.S.
Heavy infantry squad 105pt veteran
M4A9 Sherman 210pt regular
M5A2 Coyote light walker 90pt regular
Total 405pt

German
Totenkorps zombie squad 56pt inexperienced
Panzer IV X 230pt regular
Spinne light walker 125pt regular
Total 411pt

I'll bring there around 350pt worth U.S. Infantry.
Could you bring 340pt worth German infantry?
Sure! I also have another 12 Totenkorps. I'll make some list before tomorrow.

I can quest anytime. Hey, anyone want some books? I'm tidying off my shelves. A bit of this and that, got some sci-fi, military history, the autobiography of the founding president of the Hells Angels, just as a sample.

Thanks for the games all.

Konflikt 47 was very enjoyable, the additional rules add a new tactical element to basic BA and those US heavy infantry are tough! Komura-san thanks for lending me your German stuff.

Thanks gang for the WH Quest game too. That's a great little co-op game!

A fun day! Hail Mike War Pike Hammer Game Thing was good fun, and gave me a chance to get the goblins on the field for the first time in a while - it worked well! My goblins felt appropriately weedy, my trolls and giant appropriately stompy - perhaps a bit too much so in the case of the trolls, although on the other hand I did roll well and the charge in question wasn't as Hail Caesar-ish-ly optimal as it might have been for my opponent. It helps that Hail Caesar, like all of its family of games, is a nice generic-yet-robust ruleset that lets you model lots of different troop types quite easily. Next time I'll have to try some of the weird stuff and see how that works. I think I had too many bolt throwers, so I think I'll be able to fit in some fanatics.

I did double-check, though, Mike, and the actual rule for stupidity in Warmaster is just a straight -1 command penalty, while in Battle of Five Armies it's to double the command penalty for distance. Either would work, I think, and would make the trolls feel a bit more troll-ish.

WH Quest was fun as always, and we pulled out a win by the skin of our teeth - one more turn and we'd have triggered the "no more healing, plus spawn the orc warboss" end-game condition, which would most likely have sunk us.
Feel free to call me Dave!

Thanks to TOD for bearing the torch and guiding us on our first Warhammer Quest. Very fun game. Does FF ever make a bad one?
Got to try Frostgrave one of these days, and sooooo hard to resist Konflict 47. Just can't get into another game....
