This will be a 4 game tournament at 3000 points that costs $20 if you sign up in advance and $25 if you just show up. Note that to celebrate storm of magic that you may take any monster as a mount for your character. So a slann on a dragon? Warboss on chimera? Skaven engineer on giant? It's all cool Because this will overlap with the club that comes in later we are limited to 12 players so if you show up and we are full then there is nothing I can do. There will be a trophy for Best Overall, Best Painted, and Best Sportsmen. Here is how it will run: Open: 8:00 First Game: 8:30-11:00 Second Game 11:15-1:45 Lupper Beak Third Game: 2:45-5:15 Forth Game: 5:30-8:00 Everything cleaned up and closed by 8:30 Those interested will then proceed to the closest bar. To sign up all I need is for you to post here and say you're coming (and give me your real name).

Seeing as I'll be getting last place, it's only fitting that I sign up first!

I'm interested in what people think about the time schedule I put out.
Would you rather get 4 games in and have a schedule like this that at least doesn't keep you up until midnight or up at the crack of dawn, or would you rather stick to just 3 games?

You mean just the monsters? I wouldn't think so. Might through things off is some of the big dragons show up.
I'll think about it though.

It was asked where the points come from for these mounted monsters. They come from that character's allowance.
So a necromancer on a dragon would take up most of your hero allowance.

Here is the first mission:
Game 1: Truce Gone Wrong
In hopes to avoid a long and drawn out battle your general, along with token honor guard, has marched out to meet the enemy leader to work out a truce. As agreed the rest of your armies has been left behind, but as the talks start it quickly becomes apparent there will be no truce, and in an instant war is upon you and frantic signals are sent out to reinforce the general as the honor guards fight it out.
Players roll off for sides and then both players deploy one core unit along with their general, locked in combat, in the very center of the board (player that picked sides places first). Note that the general may hide in the second rank (much like a slann), the unit may use his leadership even if a challenge is declined, the unit is unbreakable (undead units don’t crumble), and the general is allowed to leave the unit in their own movement phase even if still locked in combat. Roll for first turn, and the remainder of your army will be allowed to march on from your long board edge at the start of the movement phase of your first turn. The game will last 7 turns.
Objectives: - Kill the enemy general. - Kill the enemy honor guard. - In a turn that your general’s unit isn’t in combat, spend one turn doing completely nothing with him, during which time it yells and swears and basically voices their anger at the betrayal. - Destroy your opponent’s most expensive unit that isn’t the general or honor guard. - Have no friendly units within 12 inches of your own long board edge at the end of the game.

I'm sure it's been asked, but if you can fit it, can you use more than one mount in this way? Or is it just for your general?

It's for any character.
Note that it takes up your character allowance so there is only so many that you can fit.
