The Forbidden Temple - Napier

Hey all!

I've had word from our compatriots in Napier that they're putting on a Tournament in May 2012 and are foolishly opening the doors to the unwashed masses from the rest of the NZ WarmaHordes gaming community..

What: 25 point highlander format (1 Caster/Lock, 1unit +UA, 1Jack/Beast, 1 Solo remaining points spent on Jacks/Beasts but cannot repeat types so no 2 Defender Cygnar lists!)
When: 19th & 20th May
Cost: $30 Includes Saturday night BBQ at the backpackers :)

I believe it will be a Steamroller2012 event.

Mike - could you post any details such as who to register with in the comments section
everyone else - any questions then add a comment below.

Cheers

Chris

  1. Thanks Pelarel,
    we have 15 warmahordes players here in the Bay, and by May we should be up to good speed.
    I can be contacted by email michael.jk@xtra.co.nz . Drop me a line, we will be taking registrations in the new year.
    We will game all day saturday and finish mid afternoon sunday for travellers.
    I will post the accommodation rates for the Toad hall backpackers which are in town and close to bars, hot pools etc. They are offering us group booking rates.
    On the saturday night, early evening we will have a bbq on the top deck, followed by a warmahordes team trivia comp.
    After that you can sit back and relax with a further ale or two, or drift into town, 2min away.
    I will post more details on the comp in the new year, with a short narrative and whats up for grabs.
    Until then feel free to ask Q. and have a jolly merry xmas.

  3. "Foolishly" opening our doors, huh? Well, you'll certainly not find us unprepared!

    Looking forward to being one of the hosts for once, we've been treated enough that it's about time for us to return the favour.

  5. Just a quick question. Does the unit have to have a UA or is it optional?

  6. Further details to added very shortly, and a slight delay on the registration form. If you want to reg early contact Mike or myself and we will get you on the list. And if anyone knows why f**ken MS office crashes my PC everytime I convert the reg form can they let me know.

  10. Forbidden Temple update - for those who haven't checked out the RHQ link that monticus provided yet, there are a few differences between this and other tourneys that have been run recently that I know a few people haven't picked up on:
    No Characters (that's Jacks/Beasts, solos, units and UAs)
    single list (It is highlander after all, there can be only one!)
    cheers :)

  13. woohoo cant wait, been building terrain. man 7 minute turns and 3 min extension is new for me.
    Not going to play Khador this time round, although Strakhov keeps giving me the look from the cabinet. Karchev don't dare say nothing..bad karchev, Karchev stay there.
    5 spots left, that will take the tourney to 32. with a month to go we are feeling confident on a full house. There is nothing that cant be sorted. 16 tables will fit nicely into the store, in a cordoned off area , even fitted with viewing windows. Now to make the signs "no feeding the geeks"

  14. ok retract that, Khador is back in the mix. 28 spots taken. 4 spots left, do i hear another taker?

  15. forbidden temple looms upon us. 28 players are feeling confident, next to know forum discussion on 25 pt highlander non character non duplicate lists. Bring your ladders, collosals have not yet arrived and there are some mighty high walls to scale.

  16. looking forward to this no end! 12 players up from Welly - and I've changed my list about that many times too!

  17. in 7 days time those gallant men that treated their wives so well today on mothers day will be at peace of mind knowing they have deserved their journey to the forbidden temple. They will be entering day 2 , hopefully after scaling the walls of IOS and will be fighting their way to the temple in search of the answer. "There can be only one".

  18. is there something up with the site, if this posts i guess not. just seems it has been very quiet. i guess its the quiet anticipation of working out non character , no duplicate 25pt army lists, muaahhaahhhaaaaa

  19. Hi Mike, just sent you an e-mail. I must regret to inform you that my flatmate and I cannot make the trip down to napier for this weekend after all! I have phoned Ruthie at Toadhall about this as well. My apologies, hopefully we will be better organised next time there is something going on down your way.
