Well 2014 is nearly upon us and its time to make a few decisions about next years slow growth league.
Last year was a bit of a bust we tried the battle box league but noone was really interested in it. Maybe 4 of us ended up with a battle box army.
This year was a real success with 6 or 7 of us having a full 50 point army and most of us can field 2 or 3 50 point armies in our chosen faction. We've played well over 200 games and our game play has improved out of site with Kort managing a 4th place in a tourney in Brisbane (I think it was BrisMachine)
So we talked about next year and came up with the following rules.
Kooinda Gaming Klub Iron Gauntlet (Some fancy name to be entered later) 2014
The Aim of the slow growth league for 2014 is to enable participants to be able to field 2 x 50 point armies from 2 different factions. Old armies may be used but each participant MUST choose 1 faction (or army) That they have not used in subsequent Slow growth leagues. (You can use the same faction but it must be a new army). Thos os your locked in faction.
So at the start of the year or when the first league game is played each participant will Lock in a faction that must be used at all SGL tournaments. The second faction is free and may be changed from game to game and tourney to tourney.
The first quarter we will be playing 25 point games (Yes 15 points blows)
The second quarter we will be playing 35 points
The third quarter will be 50 points and the last quarter will be decided at a later date (It will be a charity event).
At each tournament you must play at least one game with your Locked in Faction and you MAY use a second faction (50 point games you must present a second faction and you Must play 1 game with each faction).
Points for the table will be as of last year with the following changes.
Painting points. You will always get points for your Locked in faction as long as all models are painted. Your second faction may be an existing army and the first quarter it is used it will recieve painting points if all models are painted. Once you use a second faction all painted models in the faction whether they were used or not will be considered as having been used. In the next quarter if you use the same second faction you will only recieve painting points IF you have painted new miniatures and are using those miniatures in the game you are playing. You may opt to use another faction entirely (Ado has like 6 painted armies so he could do this easily) and the previous rules would apply.
There will be changes to the tournament rules as well like the scrapping of the coin rules as they were free points for Ado and Eddy. Now you will not get points having the coin as it gives you enough of an advantage as it is.
Also as we are now affiliated with LXG all league members either need to be a current member of LXG or Kooinda Gaming Club. Membership for LXG is as per the web site
and membership for KGK is $10 as per membership rules on the Club page.
So if your interested and would like more info contact any of us and we can help you out. We play most weeks and have a club weekend (yes all weekend long) at least once a month.
Have a great rest of the year all.
Cheers
