chatter on their boards was to say "no superheavies no primarchs" which would have likely covered things, but they're going with the power level cap, which effectively does the same thing, just means some things like fateweaver and skarbrand (not exactly top tier) and some land raiders are affected.
luckily, nothing Matt or I were going to bring hits anywhere close to that power level so we're all good!

I'd have to park the Fire Raptor (PL19) but could bring a Storm Eagle! (PL18) But yeah, I get why they're doing it. It's a sweeping "affects everyone indiscriminately" kind of change instead of saying "No Shadowswords".

The exact wording on the site is "At our double events no model may be worth 18 power or more." So anything 17 and below is legal. The question is are units worth more then 17 points legal? It does say model.

It does say model. They confirmed on the facebook group that it was model. Feel free to take a 30PL unit, as long as no individual model is 18PL or more. *Edit* I could bring a riptide (17PL). yay. Though this will be after the codex release (hopefully) so maybe they'll be ok?

So it looks like we have potentially 3 kingston area teams going up. Maybe we should figure out a car pooling plan?

I'd be interested in doing this... tho I'm very inexperienced so perhaps if you find another person you should go with them

Of the people going to BitH, Can you report back how the power level cap worked? it seemed like a interesting thing for game with low points like 1000 to stop any single model form overpowering a table. Would like to hear if it actually works in application or if it just looks good on paper.

In theory it sounds like it'll be something to think about for the Great Crusade if Shannon feels it made a difference. In my opinion, it'll force a few armies to think more creatively.

Anyone still looking for a partner? I have a friend that's moving to Peterborough in a few weeks and is planning to attend if he can find a partner.

He more then likely will be bringing salamanders. I don't recall him having another army.
