What you need each round – Army list, models to complete your list, any playing aids (rules, templates, dice, tokens and tape measure)
Background – Following discussions within the existing Dark Sphere Infinity group there was overwhelming interest in a spiced up slow grow league, with the preference of making it into a narrative campaign. I volunteered to run the event again and have written the narrative, decided missions and how the story progresses depending on game outcomes. We want this to be a really interesting league, showing off the great rules system. This has meant that the event will NOT be an official ITS league.
Scoring – resolved from who wins and what objectives were completed.
A slow grow is about a) having fun and meeting people, b) playing the rules and learning the game and c) getting us to actually paint something. This particular league should have something for everyone! We will sort b) at the table and c) between games. As a group of players we, and Dark Sphere, simply do not tolerate intimidation, poor sportsmanship and general nastiness. We expect that if any disagreements come up they are sorted in an amicable manner or at worse with a little chat with me. That said, any poor behaviour could result in you being removed from the league.
