Also, do all the miniatures have to be painted...not quite sure I'll be able to get all 3000pts of DE goodness up and ready in time. And I would also prefer starting early and playing 4 games that don't go all night. Cheers!
p.s. The post above is also mine...thought I was signed in as my account but apparently I wasn't...

ben, just bring it will you for the day of.
It doesn't have to be all painted (3 colors) but if it isn't then you lose 5 points, which is a big deal when the most you can get for each game is 5.

So assuming Chris is in this would mean we are now at 9 people:
Jonah Chris James Ben Brad Mike Ryan Alex Ian
On top of this I have a handful of maybes.

Hey, so I'm interested but as an Empire player with no big monsters hanging around I'm nervous that I won't be able to compete with the Slann riding a dragon or whatever strangeness might occur from the monster mounts rule. Might it be limited to just one character, to simplify things? With my dirt cheap Empire characters, I could also build a unit of captains riding monster mounts, but I'm not sure how that would balance out.

I'm only bringing this up because it's sparked a whole bunch of ridiculous ideas here at the club, with bloodthirsters riding giants, and so on. Or is it only infantry types that can ride the monsters?

Hey Jack, with Ian in that means there are 3 moer spots. As an empire player you are one of the people who have the least to worry about these monsters. In fact you could have an edge as others 'waste' points to throw characters on monsters in the name of fun that will simply die with them when the first cannon ball hits. There are some crazy combos that are possible, but for the most part they are just that: crazy. A bloodthirster on a giant would be VERY expensive and hard to fit into the 25% allowance for lords, and like I said before both would be hit by cannon balls which means as an empire player you no longer have to worry about which monster to shoot at, you just shoot at the monster riding the other monster

yes, with the cannons balls hitting both rider and mount instead of just one, it really puts the damp on having 25% of your army in a nice easy to hit large target. I would not worry much about what others bring. bring what you enjoy. If you have a gunline though, i will frown in your direction!

I can only imagine what crazy things youve come up with Chris Hell, I have no idea of what army you might use... My bet: Ogre tyrant on a arachnarok

Haha, alright well I'm tentatively in while I figure out my schedule for that weekend. I see your point and no, I don't have a gunline. I have offensive Empire which is why I was a little worried. I hope nobody will scorn me for bringing a cannon or two just on nervousness.

Given the situation, at least 2 cannons should actually be expected Let me know as soon as it is for sure though as there are only 3 spots left for a good handful of maybes.

Actually my list is not too crazy, and its not me who comes up with these crazy things, its John!! blame him!! I have a very limited time to get it all together so its pretty much a "is it painted?" then its in the list type approach.... One or two cannons is not too bad, unless your running it with 2 mortars, 2 volley guns, and 100 gunners
