Adepticon '10! whos going?

[RocketRollRebel]

So after a few drinks I've decided "screw it I'm rounding up my friends and going to Adepticon"! Anyone else planing on going? Also have any of you gone in past years and have any past experiences to share? Is it worth it?

Thanks!:p

If I can scrounge some moneys together, I'd go.

Yeah I just moved to a new city in a new state so I'm a little short on cash at the moment but I figure if I start saving now it should be cool. Got my 1,850 IG army set (may make a few tweeks here and there;)) just working out my 1k CSM army with my friends back in NY for the team tourny.

'ard boyz was epic! I went this past year (came in 16th ;)) and I am defiantly planing to go again in 2010. 8 Hours is nothing tho!If you go with a bunch of friends it makes the trip a lot of fun. Besides all you have is Ohio to deal with. psh :p I'm looking 17ish hours for Adepticon. Vroooom! haha

yeaaah so in my possible drink induced retardedness I thought you ment 'da boyz GT (its a great GT in Rochester NY have you been?) when I saw 'ard boyz. I havent made it to 'ard boyz before since I've always had something conflicting with it the past two years but I'm making the effort this year.

But I'm defiantly bringing my IG out to anything major. They are my first and favorite army and I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot of guard on the tables.

Also the 16th at 'da boyz was out of 66 so its not as impressive haha. A great worthwhile event tho! Sorry about the confusion. I really should keep my self away from my computer when ever I'm drinking with my roommates...:o

I think it's absolutely worth the trip. I drove up from Atlanta last year with 3 other guys (12ish hours I think?) and it was absolutely worth the trip. Having a group makes the drive a lot easier, but I think the biggest thing that makes it seem worthwhile is when you do as much as possible. We checked in on Thursday night so we could get the whole weekend in... 2 of us did Devastation on Friday, 2 did Gladiator; we had our Team Tournament Saturday; and then 2 were in the 40k Champs and 2 in the Invitational on Sunday.

Totally worth the drive and money, IMO. That was even with me somewhat scrubbing out due to random play mistakes. Our team showing was pretty good though, and a lot of fun, and two of my crew came back as winners of the Devastation and Invitational, so they're certainly geared up to go again this year (not that either of those tournaments are returning this year, but oh well).

Awesome thanks for the encouragement! Yeah I'm defiantly going and doing the 4 person national team tourny with my 3 friends that are going, and the 40k championships. But what to do Friday... WHFB Warbands or the 40k Gladiator tournament... hmmm

oh its ok i know how it is HA, anyways ive never heard of a GT called 'da boyz in rochester if so i would have deffinitely gone since roch is less than an hour from buffalo, i may have to look that up :p, will you be attending this year? and any idea when it is?

and yea 'ard boyz is alot of fun even though alot of people dislike it because its 'too many' points and unfriendly, but i like the tough competition!!

[FirstLegion]

I'll be there!

[RocketRollRebel]

Yeah you can check out 'da boyz GT here...http://www.daboyzgt.com/. They don't have anything for 2010 posted yet but the guy who ran it last year (Jay Woodcock) is doing a tactics seminar at Adepticon as well so that might be interesting to check out. A great event and I'm really looking forward to the trip to Adepticon and the actual event itself. Most of the guys around here are going to PAX instead tho since I guess its in Boston this year so I'm going with my upstate NY friends from my old gaming group.

[Sinistermind]

cool thanks for the info looks like an awesome time i cannot wait, too bad you aint comin in for it this year:(

[Earthen]

I'm going!

Its gonna be a riot.

[RocketRollRebel]

Cool to see all the responses. Any particular event that people here are looking forward to or would recommend? I'm thinking of the team tourny, the 40k championship and probably a 3rd on Saturday but I don't know which.
