Hi Everyone,

There is an event in Cincinnati this coming Saturday, February 25th. I'll already be down there so I won't be able to carpool but I wanted to let everyone know just in case someone would be interested. Here's the post from The Prime Generation forums.

When:
February 25, 2012

Introduction:
With the release of Wrath our friends at Privateer Press crafted up some fancy coins that we will be giving away this weekend. Now there were some rules released with some crazy scenarios and terrain, but really I wanted to do something that we haven't done in the area yet.

So with this in mind I pooled my resources and scoured my network of fellow PG's and decided to do a 'achievement' event. The "Faction Frenzy" will be a day of gaming with the overall winner collecting the loot of a 'Warmachine Championship" coin. Each player participating will also have the chance to win a Warmachine faction coin with their logo embossed on it. How do you win these coins? Well keep reading...

Location:
Eastside Games and Cards
1151 Main Street (St. Route 28)
Milford, OH. 45150

Registration:
$5.00

Rules:
35 Points
Any number of lists
Fixed 5 Turns per game
10 Minute Set-Up
Standard Time Limits (7 Min./ 3 Min. Extension)

11:00
Registration and Table Assignments
11:00 - 11:30
Games Start
11:30
Games End

At 7:30 'dice down' will be called and all games will end. Standard scoring for the game ending will be in effect.

Scoring:
This event will be held over a period of 8 hours (see schedule below). You will play as many games of Warmachine/Hordes that you possibly can. Since games will end at different times and also to prevent stalling or games being to casual, each player will get a maximum of 5 timed turns per game. This is about equivalent to a full game at this point level with no variable added.

Each player will earn points by not only winning games, but also by executing achievements over the course of the day. There will be 3 types of points used (Battle, Attrition, Achievement). The total of these three scores at the end of the day will determine our overall winner for the event, this player will win the 'Warmachine Championship' coin. The player with the highest 'Achievement' point score for their registered faction will win that "Faction' coin.

I guess technically its in Milford, but its right around Cincinnati. If anyone is interested I can get you some directions if you need them. The group down there is a lot of fun to play against and has some very good players that are all willing to help you learn. Whenever I am down there I regularly get destroyed, but it is a lot of fun.
