Gamers, get ready for 3 days of gaming fun in the Southwest. Battle Foam and 40k Radio are putting on the second “Wild West Shootout 2 / Boota Con” this January 6th, 7th, and 8th. This 3 day event will feature games from all the major systems and a huge prize pool for everyone to win. Take part in team match play, individual painting competitions, and a full 40k, Fantasy, and Privateer Press tournament. A full list of events is listed below.

Along with gaming, we will feature several seminars that will help gamers learn tricks on airbrushing, green stuff work, non metallic metals, and of course upcoming releases. Multiple Golden Daemon Winner, Matt Sterbenz, along with other guests will provide some great classes for non-gamers to enjoy. Other special guests will also take part in the weekend and we will have more information as the date nears.

The Shootout will be held at the beautiful Holiday Inn Suites Hotel in Sunny Mesa Arizona. Average temperatures in January are 80 degrees during the day and 50 at night. Sunny skies are plentiful in Arizona and that will give you time to take advantage of Mesa’s biggest outdoor pool at the hotel. Not only is the hotel a fully remodeled event center but Battle Foam is providing a fully paid hot breakfast at the hotel’s restaurant. That’s right, Battle Foam is providing each guest that buys a room free breakfast tickets for each morning. What more can you ask for than fun, sun, and food!

We will also have a vending hall with a full lineup of goodies along with the latest from Battle Foam and our long list of partners.

Event Rules:

For the East Coast Rumble I will use 2011 SR Tournament Packet at 50pts, Accelerated Time, Divide and Conquer with 3 lists for 4(+) games per day, each list must be used at least once per Round.  Base Line Painting, Model/Unit Characters Restricted, Warcaster/Warlock Characters Restriction, Baseline Final Standings of SOS and CP’s for Tie Breakers.  We will also be using the Scenario(s) (x) rule.  The first round is 40 slots, and the top 18 will advance to the 2^nd Round.  The top 8 will advance to the third round.  The winner of the remaining eight will be decided by single elimination.

Warcaster Thunderdome is a 4-player format.   Each player’s army consists of three Warcasters/Warlocks from the same faction.   Each Warcaster/Warlock choice can only ever bring one model to the table. No Halfjacks, no Keg Carrier, only one Coven member, Goreshade has no feat, etc. Yes, this makes some casters a bad choice in the format.   The Warcasters are considered to share a battlegroup.   The field of play is 36? on each side. Deployment zones are a 10? bubble at each corner. There is a 12? hill in the center of the board, and an 8? impassable wall extends from the center of each edge toward the center of the board.   Models cannot be healed and cannot regenerate power fields in any way. Once damage is inflicted, it cannot be removed.   Warlocks use the mechanics for Focus instead of Fury– they gain their full Fury value at the start of the turn, and overcharge instead of transferring.   Warcaster Thunderdome is intended to be a very fast format. While there are no timed turns per se, players should be punished with badgering and verbal abuse if they play slowly or waste time strategizing. Plan on your opponent’s turn– when it’s your go, GO!

Mangled Metal, Tooth & Claw is a brutal clash between warjacks and warbeasts in which the only goal is survival. Such a battle proves a caster and his ’jacks and a warlock and his beasts are the equal of an entire army.  Special rules: Each player is allowed only a single warcaster or warlock. Besides its one warcaster or warlock, each army can only include warjacks or warbeasts. Units and solos have not place in Mangled Metal, Tooth & Claw.  Victory conditions: A player wins the game when he has the only remaining warcaster/warlock in play or when all his opponents’ warjacks/warbeasts have been wrecked/destroyed or removed from play.

Highlander Rules; Army MUST include:
1 Warcaster/Warlock
1 Unit (may include only one Unit Attachment –OR- Weapon Attachment)
1 Solo
Any remaining points may be spent on Warjacks/Warbeast.
No models can be duplicated in the army.
No character jacks/units are allowed.
Only models of your faction may be included in your list.
Scenarios used will be: Killing Field, Mosh Pit, No Man’s Land, Mutual Destruction
Tiebreakers for final standings will be determined by opposing points destroyed. Any models that are wild, inert, or fleeing at the end of the game will be counted as destroyed.

The Painting Challenge will be divided into 5 Categories; Casters, Warjacks/Beasts/War Engines, Solos, Units, and Dioramas.  You must be a ticket holder to participate in these events.  The top three finalists in each category will win awards.  You may also enter your models in the Mechanicon GT Painting Competition; the Iron Ogre Painting Competition.

Open Arena is a platform that encourages friendly gaming, hopefully between two players that have never met.  For each game that you play you receive a number of points that you may cash in at the end of the tournament to receive prizes and other cool items.  For every game that you play that is 35pts, 50pts, 75pts or over, each player will receive two points.  You may only claim this point total once for each point level.  If you play someone from another state, you will receive one additional point.  Players that participate in an organized event will earn 4 points per event.  Players that participate in the Painting Challenge will receive 2 points.  You are required to notify a Press Ganger or a Judge to give you credit for earning these points.
