Warmachine / Hordes
Alternate Reality Tournament!
Saturday, November 27th
11AM - ??
Cost $5.00
All money will go towards prizes!
Rules:
Every player should bring in their entire army (one army). From their army, they choose 2 Warcasters / Warlocks. You MUST supply all the cards and models for an opponent to use. Those models will be put into a 'pot.' Everyone will then choose 2 casters (at random) from the 'pot.'
Those chosen models will now replace any faction affiliation with your faction, and will now support your army's Focus or Fury. Warcasters will now become Warlocks and vice Versa!
These 'Alternate Reality' casters are now the ONLY casters you can choose to run your army. You now have to build a 35pt. army around each of these 'Alternate Reality' caster. You may switch armies between rounds, but you only have to use 1 of the new 'casters.

Looking ahead to 2011 Comic Movies
I was just surfing at IMDB and I didn't realize how many comic book movies are coming out next summer.

X-Men: First Class - June 3
Green Lantern - June 17
Transformers: Dark of the Moon - July 1
Captain America: First Avenger - July 22
Cowboys & Aliens - July 29th

ZombieFest 2010 Photo Albums & Recap
ZombieFest 2010 - Walking Dead Premiere Party Photo Album
ZombieFest 2010 - Costume Contest Photo Album
Two days of AWESOME sales !!
We sold a ton of Walking Dead Trades.
The Stormtroopers from the 501st took a decent pile of donated action figures to area children's hospitals.
We ended up with 16 boxes (300+ lbs) of canned food donations to the York Food Bank.
The York BEST BUY was awesome to donate, deliver, set-up and tear down the AWESOME HD flat screen tv and rockin sound system.
We had 48 total entries in the costume contest (winners announced at the show and I will have them posted soon).
Over 50 people in the Zombie Safezone to watch AMC's The Walking Dead TV show.
Guess what ? We had such fun we are going to make this a yearly event.
Thank you everyone.
