DOA MAY NEWSLETTER
By The Boss | May 5, 2010
Club Update
The club continues to go strong and I’m happy to report that so far we have had great success in our various events and regular pick up games. As the weather gets warmer and we are able to start having events outdoors we will likely see an increase in activity as well, though I suspect that full summer events won’t start until June. This month we are going to see the wrap up event for Chapter I of the Warhammer 40k event on the 15th as well we will be starting our regularly scheduled summer event entitled “Fight Night” starting sometime at the end of this month. We are also going to be planning another workshop event which was a great fun last week, though I haven’t picked a date for that so keep an eye out on the website for details.
We are also still planning on pushing out the Warhammer Fantasy events though we are still a little light on Fantasy players, but I will do a bit of research to check out interest levels and assuming we have at least 4 active fantasy players I will push for the start of the campaign and include fantasy into future events.
MAY 15th Warhammer Campaign Chapter I Wrap Up Event
On May 15th we will be doing the wrap up event for the first chapter of the Warhammer Campaign “Gillo’s First War”. This event will be considerably more structured then previous events as players will have a series of battles that they will have based on the current story plots and events taking place in the game.
It’s vital that if you intend to participate in the event that you RSVP for the Event, so please be sure to do so.
Summer Events In Planning
June 1st will mark the official warhammer summer as far as the club is concerned. From June 1st all events will assume warm weather permitting us to play outside and they will be scheduled with more regularity. Aside from “Fight Nights” which will be regular weekly scheduled events here are a few things on the list of what you can expect.
Warhammer 40k Chapter II launch Event: This event will kick off Chapter II with the release of a Chapter II movie. This entire chapter will be dedicated to “City Fight” rules and all battles will take place in a city format using the rules for “Cities of Death” game book. We will be using a campaign map with defined territories and the entire second chapter will be played out on a weekly basis with matches being determined by the actions of the players seizing control of territories. I won’t reveal too many details but I can tell you that Imperial Guard, Eldar, Chaos Space Marines, Necrons and Tyranids are all in the campaign.
The DOA Competitive Tournament: This event will be exactly like it sound… competitive! No story to get in the way, we are simply going to determine who is the best of the best. While scheduled to be a Warhammer 40k event, given enough players we will run a Fantasy Campaign side by side. In this event players will compete in three different point categories, earning points towards their tournament score in pre-defined scenarios. The player with the most tournament points at the end of the game wins the tournament for which their will be prizes! Details for the tournament will be released when we select a date but this tournament is tentatively scheduled for June.
The DOA Summer BBQ Event: Sometime in July at the peek of the summer weather we will hold a DOA summer BBQ which will include lots of food and beer, and naturally we will have tables setup for anyone who wants to have a few games. This will be a mostly social event, but we are likely to have some fun mini events lined up including a “Painting Competition”.
Workshop Events: We are also planning on having some more workshop events this summer for anyone that missed the event in May this will be your chance to make some great terrain and take full advantage of the DOA workshop!
It’s looking to be a great summer, I look forward to seeing everyone at the upcoming events.
