i find it amusing that 2 of the 3 coaches still in the TR100 KO are not on the list ... Faulc and Rabid, are you guys gonna be throwing matches so that you don't have to take first draft pick? |

Well, I finally extricated myself from the god awful tabletop league I have been in for the past few months. Most of the people there were very nice, no complaints, but to put it mildly the commish was an childish, short-tempered lunatic who killed any enjoyment I might otherwise have gained from taking part. I tried very hard to make the best of it, and I also didn't like to drop out half way through, but the thought of ever being in his presence again makes me cringe (which pretty much rules out Leviathan, since the BB tourny is run by his wife).
If anyone runs/knows of a sydney table top league which is looking for members, preferably lunatic-free, let me know. I am in the inner west, but not adverse to travelling and would love to continue in an ongoing tabletop league. |

The Belltower league is being run a bit differently this time around Richard, and it looks pretty good. If you don't already have a link (you've posted in their forums so you should) you can find it through the NAF site - it usually starts in March/April. Its not entirely lunatic free (I played in it after all), but nothing to the level you're talking about.
I know I warned DM about that league, not sure if I did you - either way - I told you so :p |

I don't believe any mere verbal warning could have prepared me mentally for the awful truth.
I had the Belltower info on my last work computer, I'll dig it up and have another look. My initial feelings on learning a new rule set plus a ream of house rules were not overly positive, but I'm willing to keep an open mind. The main problem from my perspective with 3BL is that I would rather play at a regular time and in a regular venue, than set up games each round at a different place/time depending on when people are free. It isn't a deal-breaker as such, just a personal preference. |

I just checked it out, actually it does sound quite promising. One of my main worries was the fact that all the veteran teams would just squish any newbie team I created into mush. A full reset sounds fine by me.
Still... damn the rule-set is complicated! |

Didnt wanna sign up for wargamerAU, but what are the odds of including big guys in the no skills section along with stars? |

For those of you who like to follow the odd career arc of Tommy Dean...he will be appearing on Mix 106.5 FM tomorrow as part of the "Sammy and the Boys" morning program. I will be on air from 6:30am thru 9am.
http://www.mix1065.com.au/
There is a stream feed there for those who may not be around radios (or perhaps for those in other countries)
If you are awake have a listen. |

I have ended the final Regional games via the axe. Final Regional Results below. All teams named are promoted to Conference. Also, given that there are some Conference coaches drafting, we may promote more teams from Regional, so don't cull yet!
ClayInfinity wrote: | SWL XIII RESULTS
REGIONAL LEAGUES
* ALL RUNNERS UP PROMOTED AS WELL TO CONFERENCE
Commissioner Twahn Regional League
Champion: Aberration Theatre
Runner Up: Bashen Crash
Mr Whippy's Donut Emporium League
Champion: Northern Blight
Runner Up: Dreadbeards
Blax Landric Regional League
Champion: - Almighty Crusaders
Runner Up: - Dixie Ditz
Note: There may be more promotions. With draftees in the higher divisions, slots open up. Until we have a clear understanding of who is drafting, there may be others called up. In addition, under rare circumstances we reserve the right to save a relegated team from dropping. This would only happen if TR imbalances indicated that this may be wise...

Yeah, the reset has renewed my enthusiasm...
Just need to get them up to LRB 4.0 now
I played Humans last year, but I am having such fun with the Dwarves that I may play them. |

Given that PLATYPUS is the highest placed draftee left in the TR100, he has won the prize of being first pick in the draft.
We have PLAT's pick already and therefore the rest of the Draft will be announced shortly.
Stay tuned. |
