So why Feast of Blades?
It started back at Games Day this past July. I met up with Jawa from "The Blood Angels by Jawaballs", Mike Cho and Fritz. Some truly good people that were a blast to hang out with. During the time there, we spoke about something I mentioned in a previous post…a bloggers roundtable, so-to-speak. A time where a bunch of us could get together and have the kind of conversations that normally don't get to happen, and the ones that might take weeks over emails, boards and comment posts that we could have in 15 minutes in person.
Jawa took my idea and ran with it…straight to the Organizer of the Feast of Blades. I got an email not 2-3 days after Games Day telling me to buy my ticket, pack my bags and book my flight as the Bloggers Roundtable was going to happen at FoB. I was beyond thrilled that he thought that much of the idea to run with it, and even more excited that the FoB organizer liked the idea and followed through with it! Friday night, along with a ton of other events, I'll be sitting with a bunch of great folks that it'll be a blast to shake hands with and talk hobby-shop.I. Can't. Wait.
I'll also try and enter my Grey Knights in the Armies on Parade contest they are having, though I won't be flying with my Display board. We'll see how that pans out.
So who else is going??? I've got no one from my hometown attending, so let's track each other down, buy each other some drinks and let a good time be had by all!

Very cool! I wasn't planning on attending, but I might have to make a trip down to wander the hall for a bit and check it out. I just live 30 minutes north of Denver.
ReplyDeleteIn any case, good luck at the tourney, and enjoy your time in Colorado!
If you're 30min north of Denver, you've gotta come down! :)
DeleteTim, I am not going because you did not tell me you were going! Next time you plan on going one of larger events you have to let me know sooner! Best of luck to you though!
ReplyDeleteDangit Josh... I thought I told you. Sorry man. Okay, next large event I plan to go to, I'll make sure you have plenty of advance notice!!
Delete(I'm going to Adepticon BTW) ;)
I will be there with Bells on. I got the Invitational to do and I think I will be chatting during that blogger roundtable. Too bad Jawa isn't going as he seemed to have seeded the idea to you. I got CSM/Demon build to play and hopefully it will work out to be interesting. It isn't cut and paste and is mostly single choices to make for an interesting batch of games.
ReplyDeleteOoo... that sounds like a fun list to play. It also sounds liek a fun list to school some folks who think the only way to play is by cut and paste!
DeleteReally stinks Jawa can't make it, but I understand why, of course. He was a blast at Games Day.
Course, this means I get a second chance this year to commission you to do something on my bag :) I didn't get the chance at Adepticon earlier this year, and besides that, you're always a blast to hang out with! I think I'm looking forward to connecting with everyone more than I am the Games even.
