Las Vegas Open

What: A Three Day Table Top Gaming Convention
Where: Bally’s Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
When: February 7th, 8th and 9th, 2014
Why: Because Life is Short and Gaming is Awesome!

I remember having a great time when my wife and I attended the Las Vegas North American Grand Tournament back in 2011. Sadly, GW no longer puts on tournaments for their own games

A bunch of gamers in the U.S. have organized a brand new event for 2014, the Las Vegas Open, "The best three days in gaming that you won’t remember!"

For my fellow Beer League alumni, check out the scenarios for the Beerhammer 40K event, here. Cans of beer as game objectives. That you drink. I didn't know I needed this until I read about it.

Armies for the Championship and the Beerhammer events are 1750 points. Larger than we're used to here, but not so large as to break the game, like the 2,500 point 'Ard Boyz lists.

The Las Vegas Open features events for our wives, schedules only a few games per day, no comp, simple sportsmanship, Ren-man and Best General in the main 40K tournament, narrative events, other game systems...

At the moment, I have no idea whether I can make the event. However, it sounds like a lot of fun.
