Ehh yeah I reckon so... but that's why man invented boats, planes, and hell even carboats! Or you could always swim! Make sure you don't forget anything because that is one hell of a swim!

@reds: If we do this, you would have to drive me there for reasons I will not discuss here. I'll PM you
EDIT:
So, in the immediate area of you and me, Reds, we have:
Squadexodus, Sister G., Requiem, possibly Ace Blitzkrieg, and Erwin (though he may not be able to attend...)
@the Envoy: do you live above, below or to the left of Virginia? Or in it?

@aeon, yeah if we do this I need to know dates so everyone can request off and so I have a dead line to get my army painted! I also have a huge Styrofoam board in my garage that I am (eventually) going to use to build some terrain! I also need to figure out what I am going to do about money, (lets just say company's loose money and cut the highest paid managers first). So I'm looking for a small job to pay the bills and Warhammer! If we did it say in August I could get a few people ready, and get some nicely painted figures on the table.
Also, what would we be playing? Would you want to set up like a tournament? Have like 10 people show up, start a pot? Winner take all or something? Or do we just want to have a blast and hammer everyone's face into the ground? Get with your local events, and see if they will support this event! Lets make it big, prizes, gas cards (lol) and food! But we will see!
Hope all turns out well and we have time to think!

Aight, hop on a plane and head on over everybody, plenty of room at my place!
...nah...that might be just a bit difficult...
also my car is a piece(Daewoo ftw)...I doubt it would survive a road trip and usually I'm pretty broke...I spend most of my money on rent and warhammer.(just sayin' I'd love to be able to make it. I my absence I shall allow you to construct a small shrine in my honor...you know...to pose for photos in front of and to leave small offerings and prayers of good fortune to.)

Depending on how badly Forge World bends me over at Games Day Toronto, I could probably do it. I'm in Syracuse NY.

Woah, this is a lot more support then I was thinking I'd get! For a window, let's say July 25th to August 9th. PM me With any dates in that stretch that work for you, as well as where you'd be driving from, so I can find somewhere that's in the middle of it all (I'd need the state and tow or city you're in, but I do NOT need the address. Keep that private ). Also, how many people you're bringing would be good to know. I can't really turn this into a Games Day or something, as it's beyond my funds and organizational capacities. Like I said, it'll only be for 1 day, and for how long depends on the venue, so don't go making flight plans or hotel reservations unless you have other business in the area. Also, what we're doing there depends on how many people we get and how much terrain we can pull together. I don't think it'll be a tourney, but we may have a small raffle for fun prizes like a Commissar hat or something. i want to have at least one Apoc battle going, though. So, if you can make it, please PM me the info I asked for by JUNE 6TH, so I have time to organize the whole thing. Reds Edit: Ymmot, if you can provide us with a life sized cut out of the Amazing Rocket Man, you have my word it will be there!

Make it part of a family vacation. I doubt she'll have the whole family fly out here for a day of 40k. Go see some of the Smithsonian Museums, or drive up to the Baltimore Aquarium while you're here. Seriously, guys, I don't want people buying plane tickets and flying in from all over the world here. it might be easier to start your own Battle Royale near you. I know we have a lot of people in the Midwest and California. Reds

Depends on who's coming and where they're coming from. I live just south of D.C. (about 20min from Dulles International Airport, if anyone knows where that is). I'm hoping to do it around here, or in Sourthern Maryland, but, again, it depends on where everyone is coming from.

OK, so Reds is holed-up in Vault 101...
If everyone could get their own regional Battle Royale going, it would be almost like an intra-IGMB campaign.
I don't know about Baltimore, it's not all that close time-wise to DC. And the aquarium is one of maybe three things to risk going to Baltimore for.
I'd prefer Sometime in August, so I can get more stuff done, and maybe a piece of terrain. Plus, by then Planetstrike will be out, and that's the first expansion that really looks cool to me.

Bah freakin East Coasters, there is no way I'll be able to go from So Cal to Virginia this summer. Though if you guys come out here I got a place that would more than happy to host a big group of 40k gamers plus they have like 8 tables already set up.
