So I spose there won't be much of a pre-GD meetup this year then? I'll be going along, for GD, and the CMON/PB crowd, and of course the Ammobunker folk :P Shame about the tables, must try to make it to the 2010 bash.

As it has been mentioned should we have themed entries again?

I believe '07 was vehicles, '08 wasn't done due to the tables. So here's the question which category would people most like to enter? What I suppose I'm getting at is what theme do you guys think is best?

Single minatures, with a theme as Craig said from Black Library, as in single characters from the 40k, or fantasy novel series.

E.g. a Primarch from one of the HH books, Ragnar from the SW novels, a Soul Drinker etc etc

Yea bingo, that gives a shedload of scope but also keeps it quite neat i think. Suppose there are tanks, flyers and all sorts in BL books. Fantasy and 40k is covered equally as well.

That was last year........ maybe most people will move on, so some well done Pre-Heresy stuff might be well recieved. Anyways some of the characters in the HH series are in books based after the Heresy anyways, specially the Chaos characters. Abaddon, Fabius Bile, etc

What about stuff from Ammoriss (Ammobunker's 'proprietary' setting) rather than Heresy stuff that anyone might do? Battle scenes from Ammoriss, heroes of Ammoriss, distinctive units and vehicles from Ammoriss, etc. Anyone wandering around looking at entries may start to wonder what this Ammoriss stuff is that they've heard all about, then google it when they get home. Good advert, though not as good as a table.

Sadly you couldn't enter AB inquisitor, though maybe in the free entry? I dunno. But there's still plenty of other characters we have ;)

I was thinking about this and if the board was a memeber of the GCN would that mean that we would be allowed a place at games day?

If so then why not make us a member club, I am not sure but i think that all we need is a regular meeting and some other easy policies. If the bash is a metting of regular intervals then could we not possibly qualify to be a club. Although I havent checked its a simple enough idea.

I think it has to be more than once yearly that we meet and you have to have your own meeting place, so i dont think WHW would count?

It would be a good idea on principle, even if we only did it once every couple of months in a community centre in Manchester or something, but the problems of transport (even the somewhere like Mancherster is equally as horrible for, say, Marovian and Wolvie to get to) and securing/ensuring money for a privately rented venue are simply too much for a group of our size to sort out. Would be nice to be able to do something like the bash but with non-GW stuff though.

Dave out.

We have already been through the criteria with the GCN in regards to how we could be members, WHW has already been suggested as a possible 'club house/venue'.

However it will not be a quick process for anything to be resolved, if at all.

Travel to the club maybe... difficult for me.

As for Ammoriss stuff, that is a great idea. However, there is very little in the way of Ammoriss stuff modelwise. The "official list" <Plug> should be posted soon in the Sourcebook <end plug> only details some units that have all ready been posted in the "Tale of", a lot of regional detail, and some Ammoriss special rules. The idea was to leave a lot of scope for people to create their own Ammoriss stories.

Perhaps, if an Ammoriss Campaign Badge was created that all units could have painted on?
