Space Hulk

For any one still interested Coliseum of Comics in Kissimmee, Orlando and the Fashion Square Mall still have a few copies of Space Hulk being sold at retail price.




It's a great two player game for current 40k fans or past ones, and I do not expect it to be in stock past the holidays.

Each playable character has their own abilities and weaknesses, and must all work together in order for humanity to have any hope of survival. However, one or more players in every game secretly side with the Cylons. Players must attempt to expose the traitor while fuel shortages, food contaminations, and political unrest threaten to tear the fleet apart."

"Go down in the dungeon. Kill everything you meet. Backstab your friends and steal their stuff. Grab the treasure and run.
Admit it. You love it.
This award-winning card game, designed by Steve Jackson, captures the essence of the dungeon experience . . . with none of that stupid roleplaying stuff. You and your friends compete to kill monsters and grab magic items. And what magic items! Don the Horny Helmet and the Boots of Butt-Kicking. Wield the Staff of Napalm . . . or maybe the Chainsaw of Bloody Dismemberment. Start by slaughtering the Potted Plant and the Drooling Slime, and work your way up to the Plutonium Dragon . . ."

(Almost) Ides of March 40K Tournament at Sci-Fi City

Saturday, March 14th
Lists due by 11 a.m. - dice hit the table at noon
$10 entry
1250 pts.
Three rounds - 2 hours each
1st, 2nd, and 3rd determined by Battle Points alone.
(Sportsmanship and then Paint scores used to break ties.)

There will be special rules and surprises!

This (and most future mid-month tourneys at Sci-Fi) are designed for new players and those who want to try out new armies - thus the smaller points cost and de-emphasizing of paint scores.

Veteran players are welcome, but be warned: this is not a Rogue Trader Tournament. Prizes are not going to be quite as big, and the special rules and surprises may not be "balanced". Poor sportsmanship and intolerance of new players will not be tolerated.

If you're looking for a fun, smaller tournament experience - veteran or newbie - then come check out the (Almost) Ides of March Tournament at Sci-Fi City.

- SciFiCity Troy, OUT!

Valentine's Day Massacre at Sci-Fi City

The Junius VII 40K Narrative Campaign

The Junius VII 40K Narrative Campaign has officially begun! War has come to the world of Junius VII, and mighty armies from numerous factions all vie for supremacy over the hidden treasures of this world. Who will emerge victorious?

The packet can be downloaded at: http://www.dremori.net/doc/Junius%20VII%20Campaign%20Packet.pdf

The armies involved, and their players, are:

Imperial Forces
Brian (Allerka) - Lords of Oblivion
MarkDD - Daemonhunters
Nick (Sekai) - Imperial Guard

Xenos Forces
Emily (Cyporiean) - Farsight Tau
Hod (thehod) - Craftworld Saim-Hann
Dan (danL) - Orks

Chaos Forces
Bryan (Stylez) - Chaos Daemons
Rainman - Word Bearers
Geoff (Grandpa Geoff) - Death Guard

Week one begins tonight, and will end Sunday evening, with updates and points being posted by Monday morning.

And here's tonight's opening mini-story:

"War has come to the world of Junius VII. Led by the foul magics of Chaos, a massive army of Word Bearers and Death Guard have descended upon the planet in search of ancient artifacts and other mysterious goals. Like carrion drawn to battle, the daemons of the warp have also joined in the battle. The Junius VII PDF, led by the Junius 84th, have put up a valiant defense, but it is only a matter of time before they are overwhelmed.

Whether by coincidence or a grander scheme, the Orks of WAAAGH!!! Graz'akz have also arrived in the system, and have crashed their hulks upon the surface, looking for a good fight.

But all hope is not lost. Salvation for Junius VII has come, in the form of a combined force of the Lords of Oblivion Space Marines, as well as a large force of Grey Knights. Additionally, the Eldar of Saim-Hann have appeared, seemingly out of nowhere, apparently intent upon the destruction of the forces of Chaos, but their true goals are as alien as they are.

Finally, an expedition force from the Farsight Enclave has also appeared in the system. Blown off course by the fickle nature of the warp, they must fight for survival amidst a brutal war."

Secret objectives for this week will be sent out to each faction shortly. Good luck to all involved!

Also, for those participating in the campaign, note that you do NOT need to face another player of the campaign to have your battle recorded, if you're unable to get a fight in against another participant. You can only use this once per month, though, so save it as a last resort.

Rhubarb Games Escalation League starts Jan 22

Okay folks, it is time to start up the league again. I will be making several important changes to the league to help bring it more in line with our RTTs.

I will be using the new scoring method for games in part to reward good play and in part to make sure people actually read the missions that we use for the league.

Level of Victory	Victor Scores	Defeated Scores
Massacre	17	3
Solid Victory	13	7
Minor Victory	11	9
Tie	8	8

I will be awarding 5 bonus points for anyone that plays an extra league game so that those that come in later can get in their games. I will also be awarding 2 bonus points a week if your army in your primary game is fully painted (min 3 colors).

January 22nd 500 points Troops and HQ only nothing above armor 12
January 29th 750 points Troops and HQ only nothing above armor 12
February 5th 1000 points Troops, HQ and 1 slot each for Elites, Fast Attack and Heavy Support
February 12th 1250 points Troops, HQ and 2 slots each for Elites, Fast Attack and Heavy Support
February 19th 1500 points full force org chart, assigned missions for top players
February 26th 1750 points full force org chart, assigned missions for top players

I will try to post missions beforehand but we may still be in the process of creating them.
