Hmm, this is a possibility. Team Scotland at the BB. Ithilkir, Ewan, King Hralf, want a lift and share petrol costs?

That would be great. Getting down there was going to be my biggest problem anyway. When exactly do tickets go on sale??

That will be confirmed by GW closer to the time. But some one will post that here anyway.

Well I should be there again. And I will be back doing the journey from Dundee (rather than Vienna) which makes it cheaper.

According to the events diary on the GW site tickets go on sale on the 28th on January.

It's the fourth one up from the bottom and the details have been up for ages.

Well we may have Team Southend down there this year (only 4 people that will constitute it but hey better than 1)

As always we will have 3 of the 4 going for the casualties trohpy using a Dwarf team, a Goblin team and a Halfling team and one of our number going for the BB Trohpy itself using Amazons

But hey hope to see you down the guys and whos up for a game of Flux during the Beer Breaks

Nice one mate

Oh are you going to be at the Pearly's this year?

hoomin_erra · Post by **hoomin_erra** » Wed Nov 09, 2005 7:36 pm

Don't think so. I have a funny feeling that due to finances, the only one i WILL be doing is the Bloodbowl

Lets see info for a first timer

Well one thing to organize is a place to bed down for the night

Also look out for the nut cases that turn up to a Blood Bowl tourny we all know who we are (Yes I'll admit i'm a bit off my rocker) I mean last year there was a halfling coach in a Cheifs costume handing out a cuppa soup pakc to each of his opponents (Very characterful considering I had seen him using norse earlier in the year)

Oh and if your 18 by the time of the Tournament don't forget the secound & Third most important things at Warhammer World Bugmans and Bugmans Bar staff

I was 17 when I went last year and I came 12th. However, I went with a few friends, a couple being avid BBers for years (I keep hearing the tale of how they were playing BB when I was in pampers), suffice to say I was well trained. I love the look on my opponents faces when I play them, 'Ohhhhh a newbie', then I trash them 3-1 or something. We stayed in the travel lodge in town, and got a taxi there and back to WW each day.

I doubt I'll be able to make it t his year, probably still be at uni, which is a damn shame.
