Not fully decided yet.  Westerners seem easy to paint really ..   

There seems to be a few Demon armies so I thought I`d go for the unrepresented Westerners.  I hate it in a tournie when you face the same army (albeit different people) over and over.

Not sure if I am coming yet but if so I will not be another saracen

Grr decisions clashing with Warmahordes tournament....

[jackyphoenix]

As you all know that you are getting Prima Materiae (PM) from the events at Manchester...

And you will be able to get individual figures from with the PM you recieved.

So here is the deal...

We will order these figures on your behalf with your present and future prize support... (Consider the future prize support as a loan!)

Hopefully it should be arrive in time for the next event in May !
« and you can use it for the event! »

This way you can get the figure about three months before you actually have enough PM to swap it.

You can pay off the loan as you come to more of our event, do not actually cost you anything.

But, in order to prevent players come to one event, pick up the figure and not come to the future event, a deposit for the figure is require, until the loan is paid off.

No time limit will be set for this, so if you missed tournament does not mean you lose the deposit, as long as you paid off the PM loan, you get your money back.

What do you think? Get your second Succube now? Get to use the two stupid Panther??

Gah!  Death to Babelfish!

I`ve translated a nice little PDF with a more cleaned up text.

[Newbie_From_Hell]

will parking be available at the site as i've just checked the train times and i'll end up having to catch the 08:40 one to get there ontime (well 1 hour early)

[Dogmeat]

[puts on Fanboy hat]

Situated at the heart of Manchester's transport hub, literally a stone's throw from Picadilly Station, it's easy to reach us by road, rail or coach.

Newton Street is situated at the edge of the Northern Quarter, and it's readily accessible right off the A6 ring road. There's local on street parking off Newton Street, but we recommend the Dale Street Car Park as it's £4.50 for the entire day.

[/takes hat off]

Fanboy is open from 10am so theres no problem with getting there early.  No doubt you`ll be able to find somebody for a quick warm up game or a donut.  Manchester is one of the few places in England you can get a Krispy Kreme donut.  Mmmmmm.  I probably wouln`t recommend the on street parking as its city centre.  With that comes the idiots who scratch car doors and steal mirrors etc etc.  Not that I`ve had any trouble mind, just that I`m not trusting.

If you do come into Manchester by train then you can ride the city centre trams for free.  Both Piccadilly and Victoria stations have tram stops that`ll take you to Piccadilly Gardens and thats in stabbing distance of Fanboy.

Thank you Dogmeat for the pdf and clarify the parking situation in town.

Before I moved into Town, personally, I used the Dale Street Car Park; I have not experienced any trouble before, (Know that it get fill up pretty quickly on weekends…). Its quite safe… even at time missed last train back from London, the car still in 1 piece when I return the next day, and probably the cheapest option in town on a Saturday.

Coming to the shop early, would not be a bad idea… Get the shopping done! Hell Dorado probably the fastest selling miniatures game in the shop so far… or just help setting up table will not be a bad idea either…

Just noticed.  This post says 12 start, the fanboy site says 11.

Which is it ?

[jackyphoenix]

The shop listed everything an hour before the event actually start.
This allows people to get to the shop (Traffic Jam, looking for parking space, getting lost, looking for food) “I would have to try the donut, didn’t know they have a branch there…” “Learn something everyday!”

Allow me time to get table sorted…

Do some shopping at the shop, have some “blah blah blah” with other players.

“Remember, for this event only, if you buy model from the shop on the day, you can put it together and use it… “Flipper 19 the Damned” took the last Grand Demon off the shelf… eeeerrrrrrgggghhhh!!! 

Consider 12:30 is the ultimate deadline; You HAVE to be READY to calculate and compare “Domination Points”

And I would like take the opportunity now and apologise in advance, if there are teething problems at the event on this coming Saturday.

Your honour, defence rest!!

For future record:-
Hell Dorado event that is on…
Event from May (Something big lined up!)
Saturday, First Round start 11:30
Sunday, First Round start 12:30
