The time has come for the gathering of might and gentlemanly, sporting competition, known as the Midwest Rampage 3 IndyGT! The MWR is the only IndyGT in Central Illinois and we are happy to continue the event for a third year.
The tournament will consist of 5 games (3 Sat, 2 Sun) of 2250 points (Game 3 on Saturday is an exception, a 2500 point battle, see website for details) using WFB 7th Edition Rules.
The event will be held at:
Interstate Center
Main Building
2301 W Market St
Bloomington, IL 61704
Please see the website for full details:
http://midwest-rampage.jimemerick.com/
Registration is now open and the venue has room for 100 players if we can pull in that many. And if we don't get 100, that's more room for everyone to walk around without bumping into each other!
Come on out and join in the Rampage!!

Congratulations to the IL Team on bringing the Challenge Cup back to Illinois.
With a Record of 13-11-6, we restored the hardware to where it belongs.
Thank you Team!
But........
Next year approaches, and the Northerners will venture south to try to retieve it.
Start planning now. It's time for the Home team to hold court.

-Your army, and everything that should be, MUST be 100% completely painted & based.
-At least 40% (900 points) must be made in Core choices, including upgrades (such as a Skaven Weapons Team or Night Goblin Fanatics).
-No Special/Named Characters allowed (or ForgeWorld for that matter, e.g. Rhinox)
-You must have your army list written out with at least 2 paragraphs of fluff.
-You must also bring an Objective Marker on a 40 mm base (which must be painted & based) that you will use every game.
There is an entry fee: one (1) fully painted Skeleton model armed with hand weapon & shield. Do NOT base it. This is for use as a prize, you will not get this Skeleton back.
And just what are my perks? Well, here they are:
-Scenarios!!!
-Minimal Min/Max
-Each prize is a fully painted Dogs of War unit!
-A great day of gaming
This is going to be big folks, I suggest you get involved (and a display board doesn't hurt either).
Contact Gobbos for more info
