Sounds like fun; I can be there.

Tsukiball · « **Reply #1381 on:** 23 February 2022, 13:24:52 »

We'll be meeting up for the event around 12:30. I will likely be there a bit earlier to get things setup easier.

Alright, which one of you nerds bought all the salvage boxes from Barnes & Noble at the Parks Mall?? 😅

Apparently they were rung up incorrectly and still showing in inventory even though someone picked them up yesterday. So I picked up AGoAC instead.

Damn, already? I was hoping to make a run this weekend...

Fortyone · « **Reply #1384 on:** 23 February 2022, 17:00:52 »

Yep. The employee I talked to said a guy called yesterday and had them hold all of them, then picked them up later that day.

I guess I better hit up the B&N near me early this Friday.

Strebor · « **Reply #1386 on:** 24 February 2022, 10:29:31 »

I can make GenX on Sunday.

Fortyone · « **Reply #1387 on:** 24 February 2022, 22:09:09 »

Well I made it to another B&N that had salvage boxes today. Got 5 and pulled Mad Dog, Adder, Ice Ferret, Grendel, and Hellbringer. All in all I'd call it a decent "Heavy Striker" type of unit. Really most excited about the Mad Dog. My fondness for that mech would have a Ghost Bear thinking I'm obsessive.

whistler · « **Reply #1388 on:** 27 February 2022, 00:27:20 »

I will bring a force in case the scenario is full. See you guys tomorrow either way!

Roca · « **Reply #1389 on:** 27 February 2022, 19:25:20 »

All right, I think this is the right spot.

Had a good time at GenX today, digging the Alpha Strike rules. Ready to go again.

(BTW: this is Bruce)

What do we want to do this next Sunday?

Weirdo · « **Reply #1391 on:** 02 March 2022, 14:05:22 »

Being inspired by an introtech about lance I want to try out... How do folks feel about a smaller game this Sunday? 2200bv max, and each force must have at least four units.

whistler · « **Reply #1392 on:** 02 March 2022, 22:10:02 »

We'd been talking about another AS scenario or Gaslands though we hadn't really reached a consensus on anything. 2200 max? That sounds like a very small game.

Fortyone · « **Reply #1393 on:** 02 March 2022, 23:17:50 »

Sounds like 4 Fireballs and playing catch me if you can.

Roca · « **Reply #1394 on:** 02 March 2022, 23:23:01 »

Whatever you all want to do, I just need to know a day in advance to make sure I can make it. :)

Time for the little ones to shine. Show us you know how to get the most out of a Commando! :thumbsup:

Or bring a heavy mech escorted by three hoverbikes, that's also a perfectly valid option. See if you can avoid getting swarmed. :)

whistler · « **Reply #1396 on:** 04 March 2022, 13:06:58 »

I mean, I can't even put together a lance of decent Commandos for 2200, but we'll see. I have a strategery in mind. Anyway, I'll bring a 2200BV force of four units, but I'll also have my 400pt Alpha Stike force in case someone wants to play or some of the new guys show up expecting AS.

sevengates · « **Reply #1397 on:** 05 March 2022, 01:56:53 »

I've got my unit ready (and no Urbies). I also got my CGL Wolfhound IICs (nice details) :thumbsup:

Roca · « **Reply #1398 on:** 05 March 2022, 14:49:51 »

So 2200 points, sounds like classic yes? I might come by to watch for a bit, I'll save myself for future AS. :)

whistler · « **Reply #1399 on:** 05 March 2022, 14:53:45 »

Like I said, I'll have my AS gear with me. Bring 400pts worth of hardware and we can play :) besides other people who don't check the forums here might show up expecting AS, so that's why I was gonna have a contingency force.

So you are suggesting we go Commando?

Weirdo · « **Reply #1401 on:** 05 March 2022, 23:01:03 »

That's not something I'm going to check...

Anyone got a Hornet I could borrow for tomorrow?

About the same time as last week? I have a few things I need to do tomorrow so if I get done early enough, I'll stop in and bring 400pts. If I can't make it by 2pm, I probably won't be there.

whistler · « **Reply #1403 on:** 06 March 2022, 11:15:34 »

We try to get there at 1230 or so for setup then start by 1. If you could post an eta in here (since we don't have eachothers numbers) I'd appreciate it. With my back I'm not always the most punctual so I don't mind waiting. That being said if I wait till 2 and nobody else shows then I pretty much out of both AS and BT. I do hope to see you there though!

Roca · « **Reply #1404 on:** 06 March 2022, 13:50:53 »

It doesn't look like I will be able to make it today. Just a heads-up in case anyone is waiting.

I will make sure next Sunday is cleared up though.

Meagatron9000 · « **Reply #1405 on:** 08 March 2022, 17:54:09 »

Testing! Am I doing this right? I work at GenX and was invited to play Wednesday 16th and was just told to post on here??? If you guys meant something else or I'm doing something incorrectly please let me know :)

Weirdo · « **Reply #1406 on:** 09 March 2022, 00:00:24 »

Yup, you're in the right place. Welcome aboard!

whistler · « **Reply #1407 on:** 09 March 2022, 00:44:32 »

Indeed you are. I'm Merritt, the tall dude you were talking with at the shop. Sammy is floating around here as well. Looking forward to the game! Try to be there around 1230. I'm looking at you, Sammy 8)

BTW dude I totally forgot about my intro tech companies so you don't have to worry about putting anything together. I'll just bring both forces and the sheets. If you have any maps or anything though you should bring them. I'm a bit lacking in that department.

Fortyone · « **Reply #1408 on:** 09 March 2022, 08:46:59 »

Hold up.. Playing next Wednesday?? I may not be able to play but I can probably stop by and hang out for a bit, barring any change in my work schedule.

whistler · « **Reply #1409 on:** 09 March 2022, 12:50:41 »

We are. Megatron works Sundays, and since Sammy and I have free time during that week we figured 'why not'? This will be an intro game, 400pts per side. Obviously the focus is on teaching the basics. But yeah if you want to join in then by all means :) I'll have all the forces and materials.
