I'm down for casual gaming. I could bring my Duke/etc stuff.

EDIT: Wait, no, I can't make this weekend. Sorry.

Alright. Feeling like some ‘tech this week since my event Saturday has been cancelled. Any plans?

I will be at Gen-X on Sunday.

Randy and I played a few rounds of "Encounters" this past Sunday; it's a pretty quick learn. We "THINK" we have the Equipment cards figured out.

Looks like we got some people for Alpha Strike, so I guess we plan for that. I’ll bring stuff for both just in case.

With end of May June/July looking like the delivery date for wave one of the Kickstarter. Do People have a preference for a time for a Grinder/trade day to celebrate? I was thinking late June or mid-July, but I though I’d ask.

A reminder that this Sunday is going to be an Aerospace Grinder!

Bring a list consisting of a single IS Standard-tech fighter in the light(20-45) medium(50-70) and heavy(75-100) weight classes for a free-for-all aerial dogfight! I'll be bringing several lists and minis myself, so it isn't a problem if you don't have any fighter minis or can't choose any particular fighter.

Skills will be as follows:
Heavy G3P4
Medium G3P3
Light G3P2

The advanced initiative rules from StratOps that ties your initiative to a piloting roll will be used, otherwise this will be a pure Total War dogfight.

Each player will start in their medium fighter, and when(not if, trust me) it gets shot down we'll use an evens/odds roll to determine if they're respawning in their light or heavy fighter.

When(not if, trust me) someone goes through their whole list, they'll have the option of starting over with the same list, another IS list, or one of two Clan lists.
