Awesome. Not sure how many are going to be there so only bringing the FSA. Have only thought about 1,000 pt games, as I thought Scott mentioned something like that. Suppose it really depends on number of players.

How are you liking the HEC in 2.0? I have a box waiting at E&E now. Gifting them to my brother to bolster his Ottomans.

Looks like 5-6, maybe more.  1000 point games.  We have plenty of table/mat space, but bring any islands you might have. 

I will play whatever's not being played, but most likely Ottomans. I'll have a variety of fleets available, so I can dodge same-fleet matchups.

Noon works. They don't close till 9 correct? Would like to be able to finish a game. I guess depending on turn out this would be either 1v1, or team v team. I do really like team v team. Both sides taking activations per player is a really good way to keep the game flowing. While adding in the team work on taking out targets is wonderful. Not only are you battling a player across from you, you are really working as a unit to score major VP.

Ottoman player, and Italian/Russian player have confirmed they will be there. So that is at least three from our squad who will be in attendance.

Massive game at E&E
« Reply #24 on: February 09, 2015, 07:55:45 pm »
So the 3,000 point per side Battle last weekend was a bit chaotic. Interesting though.
I suspect the Russians didn't have that much fun.
Aftermath, I have lost one Italian MTB fig and a large and small turning template.
I ended up with 3 unpainted French SAWs.
Anyone else "gain or lose" anything?
Anyone Got my MTB?
I can get along without it or the templates, but if you have them...

Dang sorry to hear ya are missing some bits. If feel like I am missing something or another every other game. Will take a closer look to be sure, and ask some others. I left those smoke columns there for a solid 4 months...

Epic 3000 pointer! I'm a big fan of the massive games. So many frigging models! Every time I'd look at the table there was a new angle. As in action in various potions of the board. With that much going on, and a few new players chaos, is bound to happen. Add in the fact that it was 3v3 teams, it added more depth. You really have to work as a team to and end. Which is brilliant!

Russians fell much because of this...and FSA gun power...and FSA subs. Again to comment on the multiple theaters, our far side was really exposed by only using medium naval units to hold. Really allowing for a surge from the opposing side. Especially while larger units duked it out. With the Thousand Point reserve showing up, I feel like another turn or two would have been utterly devastating.

Anyway here are some pics from the bout



















Great game and looking forward to the next one!

A thread on the Spartan community mentioned that node projectors use a large explosion template for the generator range from the node. Regardless of the generator used it would seem. Oops! That will make a huge difference in how these are used and their impact. See the section on node generators, pg 75 Adm edition I think.

So many rules! Just looked this up, the range on the Internal Disruption gen for the Boston is 8", as it's based off of the value in the brackets. Perhaps the large template is a value for another model? Again...so many rules!!! Hard to keep up with them all at times.

Got some new boxes to paint up, but hoping to get in a game at E&E again soon. Permitting work and life not getting in the way.

Hope ya were able to find your bits! Asked the others but so far nothing's come up.

Hey thanks for asking. I suspect the idea is that a node doesn't have the power of a generator.
Anyway, I hoping for another  game at E&E this Saturday.
I want to try the Italians again. They did well for me.
Anyone up for this weekend?
