The location for the event is Celina, Ohio. Please post or PM if you would like to attend. The game will begin early morning on Thursday the 18th and we play until the game is finished. We take breaks and stop for the evening then resume on Friday the 19th. Don’t worry if your unfamiliar with the ruleset. Its very easy to adapt to and you can play test prior to the event on TripleA. Please feel free to post questions if you need clarification.

Bob has the day off work, so 5 malcontents, minimum.

TWO G40 BOARDS CONFIRMED!  :mrgreen:

HI for those who wrote I just want you to know we are running another convention on April 29th. The same place and times.  I will be reposting it as a new event when I get some time. Please contact with if you have any questions. The Private message worked great last time and I will see if I can figure it out.  After this it will be awhile longer as the Church has no AC so the summer is out for us. Hope to See you April 29th
    Take Care

Great pics… really shows the game diversity at this convention… I had a blast, can’t wait until next year.

Thanks.

@Gargantua:

WTH!

If David can pull placing 2nd place, then I’m coming down there next year to stomp some pain into people.

I know right???  That’s pathetic.  And these guys call themselves “Masters”.  BAAW HAAW HAAW. :lol: :lol: :lol:

BTW- a lot of greyheads :-D

@miamiumike:

I need someone to explain a bit better how this chess clock idea will work.

Let’s say the tournament round is set for 6 hours (which is what AA50 games are set to currently). This would then mean each team has 3 hours of time? In the middle of round 6, Italy is up and opps - the Axis run out of time - they automatically lose?

If this is correct, then I guess that means we want to have NO new people play the game. Not even people who have played but are not true ‘experts’. The only situation I could see possibly thinking about using this idea would be in a Masters type tournament. That would be it. Otherwise, you will kill any non-hardcore player from ever even attempting a tournament game. For the Masters, it might work.

I’d be willing to give it a try - just to see how it goes - but I cannot see how this helps grow the number of people who would want to play in a tournament.

I discuss the check clock idea further here: http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=27947.0

I’m not surprised. Don’t forget at the beginning of turn 9, some weapon developement become available for free.

The graphic design on that poster is sick. I will be there in 2012 for sure and I’m bringing tons of players.
