OK gang,
I'm running the narrative track with some fine assistants again this year and wanted to give you guys a heads up, so you can think about what to bring, and come with the right mix of models and fun-loving attitude.
So first off, what is the Narrative Track NOT about? Its not about WAAC, no hold's barred cutthroat play. If that's your thing, we have a few hundred gamers in the main hall just 20 feet over from us doing that all weekend, so help yourself.
We narrative players are all about kicking back, have a great time, and just enjoying the non-competitive spectacle based side of the hobby. We get up later than the tourney guys, and play a bit more casually, (leaving more time for fun, and eating/drinking)!
This year we are running an Armageddon and a Badab Track.
Each track will have 4 Apocalypse games, portraying some of the famous battles and moments from those campaigns. We will play 3 shorter Apoc games for each track the first day, and a single super-large game the second day.
Here is the basic rundown of the tracks and the armies that would fit:
Badab: Bring your Marines! If you have an actual Badab chapter, bring it, and you IG guys are welcome as well. Tyrant's Legion and the other Badab lists from IA 9-10 are allowed. The occasional CSM player wouldn't be out of place either.
Armageddon: Game 1 is the first war for Armageddon, so that means GreyKnights/Daemons are the stars. The later games will be Imperium vs the Orks. We want to see a lot of Orks, so if you have greenskin buddies, drag em along.
As usual with Narrative, we will accomodate any player who shows up with an army and wants to have a great time. We can shoehorn in any xenos players as needed, so no worries.
So, its sound off time. Who's bringing what, and start to think about what track you want to be part of. The Fly Lords of Terra club out of Austin will have our usual tables chock full of titans, flyers, and superheavies, so we can balance out the sides as needed.
