We'll probably have B5 back again at GaelCon this year. Haven't decided what exactly yet though. Probably a tournament, possibly another big demo game.

It's important to get your priorities right :D

They're like that a lot. :D

You jumping on Mark doesn't count :P

Depending on when that's on, I might have a crack at entering. There's also a Bloodbowl tourny going on then that is calling to me. I have ideas for a devient slaaneshi team to scare people with :twisted:

It would have been nice if I'd gotten those insane crit rolls (about 7 from 9 or 10 hits) on ships that actually mattered, rather than ... a Hermes and Saggitarius, wasn't it?

It will be a Battle of the Line-ish game. Me with lots of Minbari, Lorcan with lots of targets, erm, EA :) We're still sorting out actual numbers, but probably lots of ships to attract peoples interest, and give people the chance to try the system out. Of course, if other people wanted to play...

We generally like for a rulebook (update / whatever) to be out for a month or more before a tournament, so people have the chance to get used to rules changes and so forth. I'll give Lorcan the final word on it, but my gut feeling is we've gone past the deadline, and to keep things fair we...

Bartertown often has problems like that. Any chance of posting the ship lists here?

Yes, I've heard that about you. Most people keep that sort of thing quiet though :lol:

In general we like something to be out at least a month before a tournament, to give people time to get used to whatever rules changes there might be. Unless Armageddon is due out within the next couple of weeks, its a fair bet we would not use it. I'm in favour of pre-approving lists, as its...

Ok, just off the line with the wargames organiser, and we've manage to juggle things around to put the tournament on on Saturday, and the demo / participation game Monday. Feel free to express your gratitude to Lorcan and myself at the charming bar next door to the con :D

We could, but wargames is probably the most visual part of gaming, and by having it in the middle of the main hall, you can end up attracting new players with all the nice shiny toys :) By promoting it this way this year, maybe we'll end up with more players and/or a bigger tournament next year.

The problem, as with any tournament, is the limitations of space. If you check the timetable you can see that there's a lot already going on Saturday and Sunday, so Monday is really the best day from a logistical point of view. It might be possible to start playing earlier, if everyone was...

We're working on that. I should have that lot from my friend in the US in a couple of weeks. That should bulk it up a bit.
