A got my ticket to. Going with an army of 31 terminators (6 squads) and 2 vindicators.

Better watch out Jamie.

[sholto]

Can I get a ticket? I won't be along at the club to pick it up, so where do I get one from?

I brought Tau last year, and it will either be a tweaked version of my [elg] Farsight list or my new Deathwing. I say tweaked version, because with Night Fight in two of the three missions - Black Sun Filters all round, plz

i ment to say at the club last night that i would like to get a ticket from you. only problem is i wont be up for two weeks, is there another way of paying for it?

[thehobbz]

Well I was having problems with that and then finally managed to get it downloaded.

One query on it, no Daemonhunters?

[Asurya]

Yeah, the Daemonhunter codex is allowed. I'll edit the player's pack to reflect that when I get home tonight.

[thehobbz]

Thanks for that. One other question, which Codex can be used for the Daemonhunters? Are we allowed to use the book which allows the allies or is it just the PDF download which doesn't.

Plus Gus did you get my message about the tickets as well?

[sholto]

GW have been quoted as saying you can use either, as both are valid codexes, which is a complete cop out. The foreign language versions all have the allies page. I hope tournaments continue to allow allies, despite the PDF mixup.

[greg1394]

Hello !

There are 3 of us interested in going .

How can we get tickets ?

[Asurya]

Hi Greg (using your username as a guess?)

I'm afraid that all the tickets for the event have sold out. I probably should have posted something about that.

Sorry
Gus

[greg1394]

I have been keeping tabs on the site for ticket sale info . there was nothing on the main page.
I only found out about it last night.

Very Disapointed .

If you could email me for your next 40k tournament when the tickets go on sale it would be appreciated .

Thanks

Greg

Just wanted to quickly ask (just to double check) how my (or other Space Wolves player) Wolf Guards will count toward kill points as in if you wipe out all the Elites you get +1 bonous for wipe out per Slot of the army list/chose, just with the pack leader rule.

In normal games, if a Wolf Guard is attach to a unit of say, Grey Hunter for exsample. Being a troop chose, the Wolf Guard is also claim to be a memeber of the troop chose & is able to take object even if that troop chose unit is wipe out (can be seen in the FQA), or say Long Fangs then he will be Heavy Support for those reason.
But for army picking, there still taken a Elites chose up (other wise I'd like to get a thrid dreadnought in ;D )
As such he would not count as another kill point as being pack leader, as in him + unit = 2 Kill points, you have to kill him & that unit to get 1 kill point overall or to stop the unit from taken the object.

But just thinking more of the Elites bonous in the Kill point mission where you get +1 for wipe the slot/chose - fast attack/Heavy support/Elites out, as they still do take up a Elites chose. But as you can see by the FQA below

Page 2, the very first bit.

Q. If a Wolf Guard Pack Leader has joined a unit
of Troops, does that unit cease to be a scoring
unit? And does the Wolf Guard cease to count as
an Elite model?

A. When a Wolf Guard model joins another unit
because of his ‘Pack Leader’ ability he becomes
part of that unit to all intents and purposes. For
instance, a Pack Leader that leads a Troops unit
will still be able to claim an objective even if his
Troops unit is wiped out – he is considered to be
part of that Troops unit. He would also still be
able to deploy in a mission that only allows
Troops units to be deployed at first.
Conversely, a Pack Leader that leads a Long Fang
unit is counted as part of a Heavy Support choice,
and therefore could not claim an objective, even
if under the effects of Logan Grimnar’s ‘The Great
Wolf ’ ability. This also applies to the calculation
of kill points and victory points – the Wolf Guard
who have been split off from their original Wolf
Guard unit count as part of their assigned unit in
all respects.

For example, I have a Wolf Guard squad of 10
and I like to split 3 of them off to be Wolf Guard
Pack Leaders, one to lead my Blood Claws, one to
lead my Grey Hunters, one to lead my Long
Fangs. My opponent would score one kill point if
he kills off all 7 of the Wolf Guard left in the
squad after splitting, who are still forming a
‘normal’ unit. He doesn't need to kill all 10 of the
Wolf Guard to get that kill point, as the other
three Wolf Guard are now part of other squads.
Conversely, because the Wolf Guard Pack Leaders
are attached to these new squads, he would not
score a kill point for killing those squads unless
he kills ALL of the models in those packs,
including the Wolf Guard Pack Leaders.

Just I have four Wolf Guards & all them are pack leader/go into my Grey Hunter units.

Just want to double check so there no issue on the day it self.
