THE COWBOYS is a game of the Old West. Players shoot it out in 10 - 60+ minutes. The game features stand-up Cowboy Counters artistically designed with full color artwork by Gary S. Zaboly. There are 26 Historical and Hollywood style scenarios in the game. Six double-sided geomorphic map boards create the battlegrounds of the Old West. The game rules allow you to pick up and play the game in minutes. The optional rules add chrome but still keeps the game very playable. The "Old West" personalities are there; Wyatt, Doc, Jesse, Billy, and many other legends of the Wild West. Some of the variables include townsfolk, horses, etc. Bank robberies, cattle rustling, stagecoach holdups, jail breaks, lynch mobs, and many other western actions are depicted. It pits opposing sides against each other, bringing to life the daring and dastardly deeds of heroes and villains when the way of the gun ruled the day. Included are the lawmen, gunfighters, gamblers, and ne'er do wells who knew how to handle themselves during a gunfight. Also the town folk will show up to add a much needed gun to the fight. Chad Boudreau will run Cowboys with modified advanced rules. He is developing a set of rules for a miniatures game set in the Old West. Those rules are a combination of Cowboys' advanced rules, and some of the rules he likes from Warhammer Historical Old West rules. This new rule-set adds new thematic and strategic elements to Cowboys. But don't let the term "advanced" scare you away! This version of Cowboys still plays fast and furious with plenty of tension. Depending on interest, Chad will run multiple scenarios.

I'm into playing any of those Feld games if you bring them out, Matt

I'd like to come out for 11am and can stay until 5pm. The game, Story Builder, runs for approximately 60 minutes (I've had it wrap in just over 30 minutes, and I've had it take a 2+ hours though), and I have two sets of the game so if one goes a little long another group could get started. It's for 2-6 players.

- Special Force Organization Chart in effect:
      - HQ (including units under the HQ heading that do not count toward a force organization slot)

Please correct to "0 HQ (including...)"

Also, it should read as 0-1 for the Elite... entry as well

[Alex1]

I'd like to sign up for the 40k tournament.

Also does Lareina's correction mean that no HQ choices may be taken?
