It's back..... again! Keep your diary's clear for the 29th and 30th of May 2010 cos Doubles Team Tournament is back with a vengence.

FORMAT

Either that or they are Doubled Out.

They are run too often methinks... Constructive, not destructive, criticism. I certainly hope all turns out well on the day!

I know VT wore out after a while too, even the first time.

Better hurry up with the painting cos only 2 more registrations nights are left.

If you cannot make Friday nights eg work commitments pm or email me and we can try to work around it.
Registrations after the 14th of May will not be accepted.

So armies must be fully painted by the 14th???

Well that will certainly rules out my Death Guard Army ... I would have them painted by the tournament but certainly not the 14th ... I have been working on getting them ready by the tournament day??

Is there anyway around this Simon?? Are we able to get an extension on the actual painting side of things??
