"Burning of Prospero Demo Game (Pittsburgh)" Topic

We will be running a big Warhammer 40K demonstration game at Phantom of the Attic on South Craig St. in Oakland starting at noon on Saturday the 24th.

All are welcome to come by and we should have forces available for anyone that wants to play. You do not have to bring anything at all, dice, tape measures, figures and rules will all be provided. You also don't need to know how to play. We will be teaching the game to new players.

The game will run from about noon until about 5. If you can't make it for the start reserve forces will be joining the game throughout the day so you don't need to be there from the beginning to play.

The game will focus around the events in the Burning of Prospero. Despite it being a game set during the Horus Heresy we will be using the 8th edition Warhammer 40K rules to play it.

If you want to get an idea of what this will look like here are some links to previous similar games:

Love the buildings, which are ubiquitous in my games set in the Traveller universe.

Here is one of the models you will see in the game on Saturday.

Here are some more of the guys that are going to be in play tomorrow:

Ammitara Occult Intercession Cabal

They use their psychic powers to make their sniping that much better.

Jacan Daraan, moritat of the Sons of Horus:

He has a grudge to settle with a Thousand Sons moritat and got himself transferred to the 16th Independent Battalion to do it.

Here are some pics from the set up.

The whole table from the Thousand Sons side.

And from the side of the Censure host.

The FreeKorp cover one route of approach to the Necropolis.

With Artillery backing them up.

The two sentinels hold fast:

Magnus and Russ dueling it out:

Obviously if that happens, it will happen later in the game.
