Is being entirely anglophone and ignorant going to be a problem if I want to join you guys? |

The majority of people at the store speak english and the francophone group speak english (broken but understandable).
I should be at the store this Thursday evening, but you can always go and meet the owner of the store and get signed up and maybe get a game in if another coach is there. |

Had two games this past Saturday with my Undead team...
Game 1 vs Pat Gilbert (Norse) win 2-0 and cas 5-1 for me. His dice went from bad to worse then nose dived into the abyss of hell. Thought he was going to swallow another set at one point...lol
Game 2 vs Dan Campbell (Necro) tie 1-1 and cas 2-1 for me. Damn hard game to play. Tied the game with a Mummy catching a bouncing ball and taking two turns blitzing and going for it twice each turn. All with no rerolls. |

What's the league structure? I have a plastic human team until the rest of my teams arrive from the UK. You play Saturdays right? |

All rules except optional.... 1 000 000 to create team.
Play at the store in LaSalle and play any day you wish. Only add on rule is you cannot play the same coach two times in a row. You must play someone else before playing him/her again.
Top 8 make it to the play-offs, but you need a minimum of 6 games played to be eligible for the play offs. |

Game 3 vs Patrick LaForge (Ogres) win 3-0 and cas 2-1 for me. Scored three times in the first half and thought this game was going to be a killing. Second half we both could not get a hold of the ball. Looked like a three Stooges movie with some Monty Python thrown in for good measure. |

WOW.....
Thats all I can say about the first week of Season 2 at the store. First season we had 4 coaches and played a hand full of games between us. Just us four started something that seems to have exploded at the store. We are at 15 coaches to start from last Saturday and there has been just over a dozen games played in the first week of a 2 1/2 month season. I know some will drop out or just stall playing any games in the season, but this has been the best first week of any season I have ever played in. Couple of brand new players that saw us playing and saw how much fun each turn was to watch they decided to stop playing 40k and watch the game instead.
Taking a week off to test play my Skaven team for the DaggerBowl next weekend. Will update next Sunday after I hear the war stories from the store.

Game 4 vs Cameron Chaput (Orc) Tie 1-1 Cas 3-2 for me.
Knew this was going to be a tough game. Cameron is in first with his seriously stacked Orc team (Denver Orc-os). 4 blitzers, 4 black orcs, troll was his front line right at the beginning. Received first half and worked my way down and scored on turn 5. He could not score in the first half and we went into the second half still even in numbers. Took him till turn 7 to score (bad dice on ball handling). Two turns to try and score and I set myself up to give it a go. Ghoul with Wight and 1 Skeley goes deep and have the ball with another Ghoul ready to attempt the throw in the last turn. He has one chance to stop me and that is to blitz with his Troll on my ball carrier. Needs 2 go for its and makes the first one, fails the second one and I roll for armour....break!!!....injury roll.....injured....roll again to see....DEAD....regen....fail....doctor....turns it into a badly hurt...DAMN!!!! My turn 8 all I need is a 2 die block with a Wight to get a lineman off my receiver....throw the dice....DOUBLE SKULL!!!!....no injury but what a damn funny ending. All in all I am quite happy that I came out with a tie.
Have second place to myself with the tie, so off to my next opponent...who???? |
