You can purchase tickets by sending your payment through paypal to: lukemchughrooney@hotmail.co.uk , quoting player names. If you wish to send a cheque, please make payable to Luke McHugh, and send me a PM (Private Message) for the postal address.

Only paid entrants have guaranteed places. The first 100 tickets sold have a guaranteed place. Any over this and I will enquire about extending the venue hire to allow this to be increased.

I am awaiting a group booking code from the Travel Lodge, which is loacted near to the Civic Hall (a few minute walk), and will update here with the code, and price per room. You can book rooms now which are aroud £50.00 per room per night, which sleep 3 people, so isnt expensive, but will update with lower rates asap. UPDATE

I have spoken to the Travel Lodge, who have given me the following information:

The cheapest way of booking a room is through their internet site (address can be seen above). they have a total of 32 rooms still available for the 30/07/10 and the 31/07/10. Their special offer is currently £29.00 - £39.00 per room per night through the website. After the room allowance has been reached the price increases to £50.00 and few pence depending on room size.

The venue is easily accessible as is situated near Merry Hill Shopping Centre, The Waterfront, Dudley, and Wolverhampton.

Tournament:
Players will participate in 5 pitched batttle games as per the Warhammer Fantasy Battle Rule Book. We will be scoring the event based on the popular 20-0 system. Games will be played on 6ft x 4ft tables, where each player is requested to bring 3 pieces of scenary each. Army lists will be compted with the usual restrictions i.e. no triple special, no double rare, max power dice, race specific etc.

Rules Pack:
This will be uploaded for downlaod in PDF format by the weekend, as we are just finalising and proof reading it, but for those of you who are eager it is similar to South Coast's GT and Mersyside Meltdown's pack, along with our own tweeks and changes.

Grudges:
Grudges will be allowed. (Let the smack talk commence)
