I was lucky enough to attend the Warstore weekend before the storm hit this past weekend. I’ll be posting about the two tournaments I played in in later posts but I wanted to give an overview of my weekend first.

Smash and Grab!!! – Warstore Weekend Hardcore list
So I’m heading to the Warstore Weekend tomorrow. Tomorrow is the 35 point Steamroller which I’ve already posted list plans for. But today I want to talk about the 35 point Hardcore tournament on Saturday. I’ve never done a Hardcore event before, so it should be quite the experience
I got a can for ‘ya Lists
As I have said, I am going to be attending the Warstore Weekend next week. I would like to get to playing my Retribution more and what better way to learn than to throw myself into a convention. The first tournament on Friday night is ‘I got a can for ya!!!’, a 35 point, 2 list Steamroller with 7 point reinforcements. I’ve got some lists in mind which I shall share here, and update pending any changes.
Extra life – Gaming for Childrens’ hospitals
This weekend my wife, friends and I will be having a gaming marathon for Extra Life.
If you aren’t familiar with it, it is a 24 hour gaming marathon which works like a walk-a-thon. You get people to pledge money to you for how much you games. It started off as a video game thing but has expanded to board gaming as well. Extra Life partners with the Children’s Miracle Network and all proceeds go to a hospital of your choice, in our case a hospital where one of our friends works.
Inspired by The D6 Generation, we decided to join in ourselves and will be hosting a marathon with our friends this weekend.
If you are somehow able, get in on it yourself. Start your own Extra Life page or donate to someone who is. The D6G guys are giving away some prizes for donating so give them a shot.
We hope to play some board games like Arkham Horror and Zombicide. We’ll be rocking some The Secret World and SWTOR and hopefully some party Wii games. If some of my Warmachine people show up I might be able to get some of that in.

The Warstore Weekend Lists
I’ve purchased my ticket for The Warstore Weekend which takes place on Oct 26-28 right in my back yard. I signed up for all of the tournaments and I’ll plan lists for all of them, but I’m a wuss, so we’ll see how many I actually get through.
How ’bout that faction: Skorne
In this edition of How ’bout that faction, I’ll discuss Skorne, one of the factions I have the fewest models for.
