I Just Saw An Oompa Loompa...

Well, something happened to Iron Halo and I'm not sure what. However, their loss is Willy Wonka's gain. TS4 now offers delectable prizes along with paper ones :D

Also, the army lists have FINALLY been compiled and checked. You can find a copy here

Ooh, Shiney...

Well, huge thanks to both IronHalo.net and Vagabond Games & Collectables for coming on board with support for prizes this tournament. There's a whole swag of loot to be won which is exciting. Remember, there are 10 prizes up for grabs so there's plenty of opportunity for all participants.

Of course, the overall victor will take out the title, glory and the accompanying trophy.


**Disclaimer: trophy size may differ than that shown.

Remember, Remember...

Less than four weeks to go!
It's been a busy few weeks around the NZ wargaming scene, so I deliberately kept a bit quiet on the TSIV front to avoid stealing anyone's thunder. However, spaces are filling up and things are happening again.

As advertisements went quiet for a while, I have decided to extend the early bird discount of $30 until June 19th. After this date, the price will go up to $40, so be in quick!

The army list submission date will be pushed back until the 26th June, but these need to all be reviewed/checked and sent out to participants, so please don't be late on this one.

Between now and then, I'm going to be shopping for prizes. Keep your eyes here for updates on the loot on offer!

Updates...

Please remember that to express your interest, you must email me at tinsoldiers4@yahoo.com. To confirm your registration for the event, I must receive payment (same as every other tournament...). Payment can be made with cash in hand, internet deposit, or cheque. Please contact me if you want to pay via internet transfer or cheque and I'll supply my details.

Also, there are two more points to be added to the player's pack:

• BEAST options for Warriors of Chaos should include the Shaggoth and Chaos Giant.
• After deliberation, Dogs of War armies may now include Regiments of Renown and the flying BEAST Asarnil the Dragonlord. Albion characters are still a no go.
  

Lovable Fire-snorters...

The players pack is now released. You can find it here: Player's Pack

A Sneak Peak...

So, the Player's Pack has gone out for preliminary feedback and I'm greatly excited about it! There are a few new elements which will hopefully help distinguish this tournament from the rest, and also help keep things fresh.

While all wait in eager anticipation for the pack's release, here's a couple of tempting hints:


1. There will be a strong encouragement on taking big monsters, especially of the flying kind. Get your thinking caps on and dust off those Scarecrow Banners!

2. There will be a new format for how the winner of the tournament is decided. Speculation begin!

3. There will be a number of new prizes including one for the person who kills the most big monsters. Grab your torch and pitchfork all, it's monster hunting time!


The final players pack is set to be released the Sunday all going well.

And It Begins...

NZ's very own WHFB event, Tin Soldiers IV is coming this July! Exciting times lie ahead as preparations commence and participants sign up. This blog will hopefully provide the players with up to date information, along with an insight into what has gone into making this thing happen, and also a historical record for myself.

I look forward to updating with some regularity, and importantly provide many photos of the event itself in July.
