Hey everyone,
Just putting the (planned) dates for ANUCON2013 out there now - I'll be putting in the paperwork soon and I'll let everyone know when ANU has confirmed room availability and ANU security gives us the all-clear.
Details are likely to remain the same as last year - 1500pts, 6x games (including one non-battle-scored 1000pt paired game), BBQ lunch and drinks included.
Hope to see lots of people there! (and maybe this year we can break the attendance record, rather than just equalling it!)

Quick update: Venue hire has confirmed room availability, so we're pretty much good to go (waiting on ANU Security for final approval, but they've never knocked us back yet).

Update: ANU Security has gotten back to me with function approval, so we're definitely on for 21-22 September! I am having internet issues, which meant I haven't been able to post an updated player's pack yet, or reliably check/reply to emails. Sorry! For reference, last year's player's pack is here: lnh.id.au/files/ANUCON2012PlayersPack.pdfImportant Changes this year: The date (to September 21st-22nd 2013) Army lists are due Friday September 13th - remember to submit both a 1500pt list and a 1000pt sublist for the paired game Early payments close Sunday September 8th - same prices as last year ($35 for early, $40 otherwise) Most recent codex as of 1st August 2013. I'll update once we know what September's release is, assuming it's out on the 7th I'll let it in but I'll confirm this then. Forgeworld lists are disallowed this year, although individual forgeworld units are allowed by approval only (and approval is on a per-army-list basis). Scoring remains the same (40% battle, 40% sports, 20% army). The army score will be half painting and half army comp (same as last year). There WILL BE ARMY COMP, marked out of 10 by me prior to the tournament. Opponent scoring will likely be a lot simpler this year - expect an A5 sheet per round rather than an A4 one (and that won't just be because I use a smaller font either). Prizes (expected - potentially subject to change): 1st overall 2nd overall 3rd overall 1st sport 2nd sport 3rd sport best themed army best painted army max wallace encouragement award As always, BBQ lunch and drinks are included for both days. Thanks guys, and sorry again for my lack of communication recently (and I expect ongoing for at least the next few weeks...) Luke |

Hey everyone, just an update (and reminder):
PRIZES will again be kindly supplied by Good Games, and will be awarded for the following:
1st Overall
2nd Overall
3rd Overall
Best (1st) Sport
Good (2nd) Sport
Best Themed Army
Best Painted Army
Max Wallace (Wooden Spoon)
EARLY ENTRY DISCOUNT closes this Sunday 8th September - if you would like to pay early and get a $5 discount (making the entry fee $35), I'll be at Good Games on Saturday after lunch and at the ANU on Sunday night. It's probably too late for bank transfers, but if you'd still like to pay by bank transfer email me ASAP ( mrmoowithnounderscore@gmail.com )
ARMY LISTS are due on next Friday 13th September. Please make sure you specify who will be your warlord and warlord trait table, any power weapon / force weapon types, and include the 1000pt sublist for the non-battle-scored paired game. I AM REMOVING THE REQUIREMENT FROM LAST YEAR TO PRE-SPECIFY PSYCHIC POWER DISCIPLINES, as it doesn't really add anything and just makes taking psykers even more annoying.
Finally, thanks to everyone who's expressed interest, registered, and/or paid so far - I'm currently at 19 registrations/expressions of interest, of whom 10 have already paid, and we're still more than two weeks out.
Can we make it to 27 to make this the biggest ANUCON ever (and not just equalling the biggest ANUCON ever like we did last year)? Let's find out!

Luke, I just realised the thread name is 2012, instead of 2013  |

Hey everyone!
I've got 28 people who have submitted army lists and/or paid, which means that if everyone turns up then we'll have the biggest ANUCON ever!
If you're planning on attending but didn't get an email from me over the weekend, please email me ASAP (at mrmoowithnounderscore@gmail.com ) to let me know you're coming and submit your army list - this lets me buy enough drinks and food for everyone.
Setup is on Friday night starting from 7pm, so if you want to have a sneak peek at the terrain or get a last-minute practice game in, feel free to come along.
See everyone on the weekend!
Luke
