There was some chat about your format here in Germany today… looks like you are making waves in the Warmachine Meta!
It’s a completely broken format with stacking spells and feats. I think it’s going to be fun. I’ll report on how it turns out.
Hey Owen!
Was wondering if there were any places left? It sounds awesome!
Hi Neil – there are six spots still available. Ping Ethan in Gamers Hub (http://www.facebook.com/GamersHubMaynooth/info ; Tel and Email on that page) to reserve your spot.
It’d be great to have you there. Will you bring Ret?
Owen
That’s the plan Owen – Kaelyssa and Ossyan, each with a Phoenix and a Hydra (although, if I can *somehow* get Hypnos painted by then, he could well replace Ozzy’s Phoenix!).
BRING THE FILTH!

Sounds like a solid list. One thing we’ve been discussing is that the games should adopt the Mangled Metal ‘all jacks or all warcasters’ win condition. I think it’s a good idea.
Sounds perfect – will they be the only win conditions for every game though, or will the Steamroller Scenarios also be in effect? Khador *could* have trouble with some of the control scenarios otherwise!
Also… If it’s Battle-group only, does that mean The Avatar can’t play?
Neil
Scenarios will be used, but I’ll stick to Center and Dual scenarios.
Yes – no Avatar!
