Hey guys, I'm really excited to announce an upcoming event that is near and dear to me: Foodmachine! This event looks like its going to be a lot of fun, and do a lot of good for our neighbors in North Texas. I hope you'll come out and support the North Texas Food Bank while cheating your way to first place.![]() Saturday, November 17th: 11 am - 8 pm Foodmachine is a Warmachine and Hordes charity event that will be benefitting the North Texas Food Bank. Your entry fee is 10 canned food items (or a $10 donation), and every canned food donation beyond that (or $1 donation) allows you to cheat to win. For this event, bring a 50-point lists with reinforcements, second list optional. There is no painting requirement. Prize support is TBD. At any point during a game, a player may donate a canned good to create an in-game effect. These canned goods are in addition to any canned goods that were donated for the registration fee. The following are the in-game effects that are generated by extra donations: During your game, you may donate 1 canned good to:
During your game, you may donate 3 cans to:

The following cheats can only be used once per tournament. Once paid for they are in force for the duration of the tournament. You may donate 50 cans to:

Edit 1: Made it a one list event, with a second optional list if you so desire. Edit 2: Update! Privateer Press will be sending down a whole lot of prize support for door prizes and raffles. The big thing we'll be raffling off is a hardback copy of the IKRPG signed by the staff at Privateer Press! Eat your heart out. Every raffle ticket will be either for a canned item or a $1 donation to the NTFB. Edit 3: Added a rule, for 100 cans you can bring a unit from another faction.

I might try to get there a little bit early (10:30ish?). It'd be cool if lots of dudes got there early so we could all do a "model-swap" so we can pull off these crazy combos. Here's a list of spare models (with cards) that I will bring if anyone needs them: TROLLS --Borka w/ Keg Carrier --Gunnbjorn --pMadrak --Mauler --Blitzer --Winter Troll --War Wagon --Champs --Thumper Crew --(Still haven't finalized my lists yet, so I'm sure I'll have other units, solos, and beasts) CYGNAR --pStryker --Thunderhead --Charger --Lancer --Lancer --Centurion --Jr --Squire MENOTH --Exemplars --Castigator MINIONS --Croak Hunter MERCS --Rockram (I need to check on this one -- not 100% sure if I've got the card) I'm at work right now so I'm doing this from memory. I'll update the list if I think of anything else. Does anyone know if it's possible to use War Room to make lists like this? Assuming I own all the necessary cards, is there any way to throw an out-of-faction model into a list? Thanks! andrew |

Hey Andrew, if you're going to be there, can you bring the Sons of Bragg for Sarah? I need to ship them down to her. |

Oh yeah ... Hey Andrew, Alex was wondering about the SOB's and if you could get them to Alex. Also, I may need to use your T-head for the event (dunno if its worth it with Ossyan) |

A few questions about cheats: 3. DINNERTIME!: Generate 1 free non-charge power attack. Each subsequent time you break this rule per turn, the cost to break this rule doubles. The cost resets back to 3 cans at the start of your next turn. - How does this work? Is it just a replacement for fury/focus cost or can it literally generate a power attack out of thin air? i.e. I charge and attack, pay ticket to make a headbutt, pay more tickets to do a throw on the now knocked down model, pay even more tickets push someone else, etc. 4. FRIENDS IN NEED: Designate one Mercenary or Minion models/unit as a friendly Faction model/unit for one game round. - Can this be used on your opponents unit? You may donate 50 cans to: You may donate 75 cans to: You may donate 100 cans to: Do these options buy you access to the jack/unit/colossal for both lists or one only (obviously excepting character jack/beasts). |

I'd also suggest check Target grocery end caps, they usually have a couple with marked down prices on items. Getting rid of excess stock on stuff selling slow. Albertsons usually have a cart with some odds and end canned food they want to move quickly. Also remember if an ad is offering a discount you can present that at WalMart as a price match. Also talk with a manager about your support of a local food drive to see if they are willing to provide a discount on a bulk purchase or donate a box. I did a group project about Kmart and after talking with a manager he gave us free samples for the presentation. You never know until you ask. Edited by Knightdrake, Nov 16 2012, 02:00 PM.

It replaces the focus/fury for that throw/lock/headbutt/push, you wouldn't be able to break the "one power attack per activation" rule with it.
I'm going to say "no" on this one, only on your units. It's a small cheat (let those Forgegaurd use eStryker's positive charge) not a big cheat (control all of your enemies models).
For one list. Hence the second list being optional. |

There is not. I like the idea, but I don't want to add that in so close to the start time. |

I wasn't thinking you could control the models. But some Merc units have abilties that work/trigger on enemies only. For instance make mercenary kayazy your friends and their gang ability no longer works. Only on friendly units works though. Putting storm rager on a swamp gobber will finally make them a force to be reckoned with! |

Oh, I see now. Based on that and the Rules as Written, I'm changing my answer to "yes, you can totally do that". |

Randy's example would work only if Kayazy are taken as Mercenaries though. Ally units, when taken by the faction, count as in faction and not Mercenary/Minion. |

This is getting more and more convoluted ... and less attractive to play! |
