Please note that this date is 6 weeks later than we wanted, due to staffing issues. Thanks to Gus for okay-ing this move.

We're planning to move Counter-Attack! to the first half of the year from 2012. There's no point in having two 40k tournaments back-to-back - and we recognise that Rapid Fire was here first!

Thanks for your understanding.

Going to try to get either this or Forgotten Heroes off work so I'll hopefully be able to attend one of the two. I'll get back to you when I find out.

Thanks for that

Just got the day off for this. Do we need to pay for tickets in advance or is it a pay on the day event ?

David

[andymeechan]

I have already corresponded with Dave over this, but for anyone else scratching their head over that question: it's pay in advance (or have a decent excuse!).

The reasons for this are twofold; first, it allows us to buy in an appropriate amount of food; secondly past experiemce has shown us that advance payments give a 95% turnout on events!

Leading to a better day out for everyone i'm sure you'll agree.

Good to have you on board, Big Dog.
