Neat! I'll definitely consider it. I'd just have to paint my army...

*points to Andrew* same thing. But in Wisconsin? ouch...

[RARE CHOICE GAMES]

Kenosha Wisconsin is really not that far of a trip for andrew and Caleb.

Only 2 hours from Dekalb so not horrible, not great, but not horrible either.

[equinox]

Rockheads is about as close to the IL/WI border as you can get these days. It is also ~15 minutes east of I-294/94 on rt 50, so very easy to get to from the expressways.


If you need directions from anywhere, let me know and I can help.

Hope you all can make it.

[Andrew]

Yea it's not that far for me up here. I'm debating between my Lahmian-themed Vampire Counts and my Bretonnians. I like both so dreadfully much...

Hmm, this is already shaping up to be the most prize-oriented tournament I've ever been to. Neat.

I assume all current GW FAQ's are in use and the like?

[glow=red,2,300]The Invasion has been Invaded.[/glow]

It is official, we have filled all of the current spots.

I am now starting a waiting list and will work with the store to open up a few more spots if possible. If you are considering the event, can you let me, as I would like to get an idea of how many more tables I may need.

[equinox]

[shadow=red,left,300]In the distance, the sound of trumpets can be heard as more armies wish to heed the call of the Invasion.[/shadow]

Three more spots have been added to the Invasion.

Early registration was extended till Sunday, so there is still time to get in and have a chance at winning a WoC battalion.

[Andrew]

Three more spots; won't that produce an odd number of players? Also, I was wondering if the tournament is being put on by Rockheads or a club? I'll wear an official NIMGC shirt so you know who I am.

There are a total of 18 slots, so all is good.

The event is being put on by myself. Rockheads is providing the space, everything else, prizes, trophies, etc, is provided by myself.
