Siegeworld Apocalypse Event, ITC 40K Tournament, and Age of Sigmar Tournament


Siegeworld Productions and the Gateway Gamers Club have joined forces to bring you Siegeworld 2016! This event will be will be held the weekend of Aug 27th and 28th at the North County Recreational Center (link).

We are looking to grow Siegeworld, so starting in 2016 in addition to the Apocalypse battle, there will be a 40K ITC Tournament and an Age of Sigmar Tournament.

Siegeworld 2016 will be a 2 day event. Players have the option of participating in Siegeworld for 2 days or they can participate in the 40K ITC event and have the option of joining Siegeworld on day 2.

In the past Siegeworld has been known for massive games of floorhammer. Now Siegeworld is coming up to the tables! Yes, the battlefields of Siegeworld will be played on table tops. Siegeworld 2016 will be broken up into 2 to 3 battle fields. There will be the main battle table and 1-2 satellite battle tables. The main battle table will host the central battle. Here is where Battalions of Tanks, whole Chapters of Marines, and numerous Titans will clash for supremacy. The 1-2 satellite battle tables will play host to smaller engagements to gain control of either a long range artillery installation or an orbital defense relay.

More information and ticket purchasing info can be found here: http://gateway-gamers.com/index.html

This event is hosted by the Gateway Gamers who were previously responsible for running all of the 40K and Warhammer Fantasy events at Diecon. They're a great bunch of guys who know what they are doing. 


I'm ridiculously excited for this. This is the one time a year I get to play an Apocalypse game. My five Imperial Knights and all of my various Space Marines are ready for action. And of course I'll be playing in the 40k ITC Tournament. If you're free this weekend, please come out and join in one of the events. IT"S GONNA BE AWESOME!!!

Painting will be judged by me using a rubric. I will be using the rubric from Adepticon 2016 with two modifications. Here is a link (see page 4 of the url) http://www.adepticon.org/wpfiles/2016/201640Kchamp.pdf
1. Display Boards will NOT be part of the rubric.
2. Any player receiving more than 30 points will qualify for the second round of scoring instead of 37 points as their rubric did. This means the max score is 33 (30 from first round of judging and 3 from second round). Please keep in mind that painting will not reflect in your overall score nor in your ITC points earned at the event and is purely being judged for purposes of the best painted award.

This is the second tournament that will be done at this location as part of an ongoing monthly series of ITC events. Please post any questions in this thread and I hope to see everyone there!

Below are a some pics from our first event. Everything went of without a hitch and all who attended seem to have a great time!
