Righteous! Yeah Matt feel free to bring your battle board as well - even if we can't balance a full 6x4 on the table I have in mind, we can definitely do a 4x4 and play some smaller games (or add it on to a standard table for an even bigger game).
I'm getting excited! I have my second stegadon en route via ebay, the last piece of the puzzle for my 2400 list. Now to paint everything (F).

If we want to do a half table I'll bring the terrain and my old Battle Mat. I'd rather not even get close to risking breaking people's models due to a bad balancing act. No hills though. Maybe Dan has some of those. I wasn't too thrilled with the citadel ones and haven't gotten to finding or making other alternatives yet. I'll also be looking to find some fantasy buildings in the near future. I'm not too enthused with the size of most of GW's current offerings. The damn towers end up taking up most of the board.

Yeah Matt I totally agree with you - the only really useful terrain for fantasy that GW has produced has been the forest, and the tower/manor set. Just LOS blocking terrain with some room for a unit to occupy. Everything else not only is too large but basically needs the 360 degree LOS and movement of 40k to be useful.

So far we've got:
Me Kyle Andy Jeff Josh R Josh K Matt David
Not sure yet: Joel CJ Jack
Should be a good time! Kyle thoroughly beat my ass with the new guard book on Tuesday, so I'm excited to get some more games in tomorrow to keep shaking the rust off!
PS 20 warriors/4 venoms < 156 guardsmen. Woof.

Just LOS blocking terrain with some room for a unit to occupy. Everything else not only is too large but basically needs the 360 degree LOS and movement of 40k to be useful. It get's better when factoring in the rules they assign to pieces of terrain. "Every model within 6 inches becomes stubborn." Every model is within six inches because the piece is the size of the table.

I'm going to be playing fantasy, but we can play whatever anyone wants to play on either table. I'm going to have a sign up sheet and a timer system in place, since we have so many people, so that as people trickle in they can "dibs" table space for whatever system they're looking to play
