95,000 Point Warhammer 40K Apocalypse Game at Origins 2009

[TheJohnnyh13]

there is no fun in playing such great games when the landscape and the models look like crap. stay with 2000p, the whole gw-stuff after 2005 was meant to generate money.

[DjPixelz]

nice waist of money (;

[DjPixelz]

@DjPixelz waste *

[MrKoiking1]

@DjPixelz the table looks terrible. apart from that. yeah, we have no life.

[coldson07]

how long did this game take i bet it took at least 17+ hours maybe 2 days 8 hours each or so? maybe?



[Ranillon]

@coldson07 It took all day -- about 12 hours. We didn't play things out to the bitter finish, but to the point where the winner was clear.

[awesum2movies]

Epic game

[magnetman333]

GO Chaos Titan!

[DARKMATTER1998]

That's over 9000!!!! Points.

[TheBenchallenger]

wow that ememts

[heatedpete]

dislike apocalypse. Too long to finish the game (my small school club took a day to finish a 10,000pt game, and even then we had only three turns). But great work on the game. who won?

[Ranillon]

@heatedpete The imperials. The bad guys didn't have enough large Apoc models to handle ours.

[Consti1848]

omg so much figures

[P5K70]

Imperial Guard: Yes we are lightly armoured and you can tear us limb from limb when you are naked, but if you face our tanks they will blow the shit out of you and your army.

[loghead19]

must have been very long turns :PPPP

[MarshyTheMagicMan]

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!

[StewieANDbrianRule]

yeah lol miniwargaming has a bigger game but nvm, it looks cool awesome ships, tanks ,titan/s (i only saw 1) and all painted very nicely

[Trueflights]

It looks like a pretty nice sized game, but I'm not sure about the worlds largest 40k game. We often play 100,000+pts games here. heck, we are playing an 80,000pt game soon that is just my armies vs one of my friends IG Regiment. I plan on doing a battle report of it, so keep an eye out.

[Ranillon]

The aim is to eventually achieve the "World's Largest" -- that is why the event is called "The World's Largest Apocalypse Game". In the meantime we still use the same title as "We Are Trying to Eventually Have the World's Largest Apocalypse Game" is a lousy name for a gaming event. :-)

[wargamesanorak]

hmm. thats a challenge lol :-)

[TheSammyb59]

@Trueflights dude none of your stuff is actuall 40k stuff

[Trueflights]

@TheSammyb59 most of it is. we have a few proxie models for things that we have added to our home games to make them more fun, but the majority of all our models are GW, Forgeworld, Armorcast, and Epicast models. All licensed by GW to make 40k models. Like I said, we do have a share of stand in models for things GW doesnt make figures for, and a few that we built ourselves to add more fun, but I would be willing to compare just the GW models in our armies to just about anyones army out there

[holycrapith]

@Trueflights shit dude how many points is your army in total?!?

[Trueflights]

@holycrapith which one? my orks are pushing 25,000points alone now.

[holycrapith]

@Trueflights how much money do you spend on this??

[Trueflights]

@holycrapith I've been collecting for almost 18 years now so it has been spread out a bit. Most people who play spend around $200 for a basic starter army, plus paint and other supplies. then it grows from there. I estimate that I have spent somewhere in the neighborhood of $4000 or so.

[holycrapith]

@Trueflights you must be a hardcore warhammer player, wish i had that type of money

[Friendguystarcraft]

@Trueflights dude half of your army is proxies, i understand the money part of it, but as far as games with all forge world and gw models go, this is one of the largest out there.

[Friendguystarcraft]

@trueflights i like ur vids though anyways

[TheArtOfWarring]

omg reaver titans

[AsheIsTheRaven]

I'm moving to Columbus and my daughter and I have a huge army, Chaos and Tayranid. Been hard to find Warhammer games since our move to the States, is this a regular thing?

[Ranillon]

This particular one is played every Origins, which in turn is usually the end of June or so each year. There are also smaller events at any of the local gaming stores. You'd need to check them out.

[LtHAWK2495]

is the baneblade an actual imperial guard tank or can ultramarines use it aswell?

[Ranillon]

In Apocalypse you can pretty much bring whatever you want. Thus, ultramarines can bring along a (technically IG) baneblade if they wish without problem (assuming it fits within any point limit for the game, of course).

[LtHAWK2495]

cool thx

[AsheIsTheRaven]

Apocolypse pretty much allows for Imperials and Chaos to use any of the Data sheets for their games, and allied forces are encouraged even if space marines and Baneblades don't sit well with you

[dreadloom]

awesome game :)
