Like to meet you. Problem is, well, the US seems to begrudge people from other countries:
Immigration: "Why are you coming here?"
RT: For a holiday
Immigration: Why?
RT: *Slow, blank stare* A holiday. Vacation. Trip. Excursion.
Immigration: Do you intend to work or reside in the US?
RT: *Thoughts:
#1: Why in the blazes would I want to do that, you daft woman. Can't you see the bloody British passport in front of you! #2 Some holiday. Not only do I have to work, I have to sodding househunt as well.*
Says: No...
Immigration: Are you a member of any terrorist groups? RT: *Gawks in sheer amazement*

Yep, that sounds like US customs. Nice to see my taxpayer money is put to good use scaring away people who could potentially fix all the problems we have over here.
Welcome to America, we have fun and games...

While I don't think that trusting people will answer truthfully to that last one with a yes, at least they're finally starting to put forth a token effort. Weren't we going to go over to Israel, and see what they do? They're the experts...
It's just as well, RT. If they did a bg check on you and found this forum, you wouldn't be allowed in. You're too bad-ass for our country.

Only because the psychos running the Republican party have heard the rumors that RT can beat them at their own game and still be a reasonable person.
Now all we need is a way to summon Drang...

But I'm not into the whole occult scene...
And it's psychos one way or the other, we need a sweeping change in the people (not just some policies) in government before things improve.
Pre-reply edit: Did you know that slavery is not actually 'abolished' in the US? It's still legal if it's the punishment for a crime.

But I'm not into the whole occult scene... I am, well I mean I dabble...just sort of as a hobby. No I will not help you summon Drang, that sounds like an incredibly bad idea for everybody.

so long as that job involves plenty of cat punching...
because that is what I do, I punch cats.
(wait, are you trying to trick me into summoning Drang? damn, nope...no amount of cat punching is worth it.)

Excellent. Now, summon Drang.

Nobody punches cats like Ymmot.
Anyway, back on topic. Here's what I'm thinking of for stuff to do.
1-2 apoc Games (Going at the same time, depends on the terrain and number of people) 1 Kill Team table (I'll have the rules for it there) 2-3 Normal Tables (Again, depends on terrain, number of players, etc)
Also, depending if I can get my hands on one, I'm going to try and raffle off a Commissar's hat.

Just make it one gigantic apocalypse game.

Just make it one gigantic apocalypse game. I thought of that, but it would get too complex. 3 vs 3 is what I'm going to go for, but there's no reason why the two games can't be part of the same battle (calling down Arty from the other table, etc). Reds

Reds, this is an excellent idea, especially for me, as it would be a very short drive for me. I'm definitely interested.

Ah, that's right. You live close by. PM inbound.
Actually, Requiem and I will be playing at the local store next week on the 7th (hopefully). Swing by and say hi if you've got the time.

*UPDATE*
1. I've got two locations in mind, both in Northern VA
2. In the interest of keeping costs down, the event will most likely go from 12:00 to 8:00, although I may have to cut it back a bit more. Set up will be beforehand, and I want at least an hour to tear everything down, so I'll try to have the room from 11:30 to 9:00.
3. August 1st or July 25th are what we're shooting for. Those are Saturdays. Work makes it too difficult for me to do it other days, but I can pull some strings to get my schedule adjusted, if need be.
4. CHECK YOU INBOX. I'll be communicating most info via that, and a lot of it is time sensitive. I need to know how many people are coming before I look for a room to hold us all.

Point limits depend on what you want to do. If you want in for Apoc, it will be predetrimend, but other then that, anywhere from 500-1500pts, depending on what your opponent and you agree on.
@bragg: We'd be happy to have you. PM inbound.
@everyone else: I'm working on the details of the Apoc game. Once I get the requested info from you, I'll PM you the details. Remember, I NEED that info by June 7th!

Closer to 3 and a quarter without traffic, you're basically taking 95 all the way through, which is really only a problem around the city and Baltimore area.
