ah sorry my bad.....

1) We're doing Escalation League... 500 pts to start (under CP rules): +500pts every two weeks?

2) A game week runs Sunday to Sat or what? Seeing as we are starting on a Wednesday.

3) Same system that's listed under the League for booking tables? 2 slots(3-6 & 6-9)?

4) Is there going to be a Tuff and Fluff division or just one?

5) Is play only on Wednesdays or can we squeeze in whenever?

6) Reporting of games? Will one or both of the forms be updated?

7) Assuming "fully painted army" means tabletop std (ie. 3 colors, based, etc.) Not trying to be a rules lawyer, just want to make sure I'm not assuming things.

All I can think of for now.

quick question,

later on down the line, are we able to start putting things with more wounds and the armor and the monstrous creatures and all that good stuff later on?
cuz thats gonna be alot of gaunts and steelers otherwise lol

@Johnny - Yes, that restriction is only for the 2 weeks played at 500pts

@Roland:

1) Yes, week 1 = 500pts, week 2 = 500pts, week 3 = 1000pts, week 5 = 1500pts etc...

2) A game week will run Monday to Sunday.

3) Table booking will only take effect if the place is packed, but yest we will use Robyn's system for table booking under that respective thread.

4) There is only one league, no tuff and no fluff.

5) You can squeeze a game in whenever you like, wednesday's is just the day when we have the back of the den booked for 40k

6) Robyn will update the reporting form when he has time.

7) Fully painted is a tough one but the simple rule of thumb is to ask your opponent, or ask anyone around you, if you have to explain to them that no it's actually painted because it has 3 colors then it's not painted. That being said not everyone is a golden demon award winning painter, so don't knock someone down if you don't like their paint job, if it looks like the effort was made to paint the model, it's painted. It's very subjective.

Quick question, in previous leagues withthis format only tyranid warriors were allowed with 3 wounds. Here was talk about how some hq choices with 3 wounds would be too powerful in smaller games. So we can now field hq's with 3 wounds?

Yeah, I'm going to try relaxing it to three wounds, by all means take Tyranid warriors but don't be dicks about it, 500pt games are meant to be quick and fun and usually get the best turn out, I will be there to smack talk people with beardy lists.
