TribeMeet South 2018 (Yakday)
- Thread starter MancInventor
- Start date
I'm assuming that single-mount beasts basically count as bikes, and larger beasts with/pulling platforms would count as trucks? I'm not affected - Metal is Best for the Pit Slaves, none of this "organic" nonsense - but I'm thinking it would be a good clarification, or if there are new rules inbound to cover it.
There’s rules for beasts at the bottom of one of the early posts, I’d try for bikes = bikes and beasts = beasts just to avoid confusion they have different movement stats points cost etc.
I haven’t built the truck/skimmer/yak cart yet so I’ll try to make it look more truck like.

I come with good news and bad news, good news first, I am booked in to the holiday inn express hotel across from the Marriott 
bad news is @horuswaspretty Won't be coming, something about a wedding.
Well it's that order of good and bad for me, others might like to swap them around
As Horus won't be coming there is a spare bed in my twin room if anybody wants to split the costs?

@MancInventor id like to use lances on my beasts and these;
Just wondered if you would be willing to make up some house rules and a credit cost for them?

@ClockworkOrange great teaser, looks Super cool, I will put something together.
You might want to find the Gubbinz magazine/WD article that gave rules for them in Gorkamorka as a reference point?
This was so awesome last year, encysted icrotic slime wouldn't stop me attending. Can you add me to the roll for both days. I'll probably aim to get there on the Friday so happy to help with setting up if needed.
Is there a firm a conclusion on the hotel yet, so I can look at booking a room?

Yep, the Marriott is where gangs go to die (other gangs of course, mine will be doing the killing )
If the Marriott is too pricey there is a holiday inn express within easy walking distance

Awesome, thanks. My mate will be coming also (not sure what he's called on here). Attempts to make a war rig have so far met with frustration:
Plan A: buy toy truck supposedly 40K scale: FAIL truck size of small rodent
Plan B: buy WW2 model kit: FAIL would have to remortgage house.
Plan C: Scratch build war rig out of old biscuit tin and whatever lying around: LETS DO THIS.

got pics of the failed option a? might be able to suggest something...
Also check out 1:35 scale kits, you can get a lot out there for not huge sums (tenner, maybe 15 quid) that would be a great base for a model. Also consider looking on ebay for some battered/knackered 40 vehicles, if you are going to customise them for ash wastes, their condition matters little and I've seen a fair few 2nd ed rhinos go for under a fiver.

Hey - friend of Ironslag69 here.
Count me in, really looking forward to coming, really sad I missed out last year.
Thinking I will bring some kind of boring Orlock miners. Gives me an excuse to look into the Goliath truck kit that I have had my eyes on for a while...

Are you two planning on coming both days? Post in here so @MancInventor can update the list of attendees
Don't forget to post pics of your gang and their ride/s in this thread https://yaktribe.games/community/th...ure-fast-enough-the-road-to-yakday-2018.7218/ for us all to have a look at

Thanks for the tips spafe. 1:35 definitely seems the way to go. Going to have a dig around on ebay.
I can’t be the only one who thinks that Yakdays and Tribemeets need dedicated albums with gang photos and game in process photos...
(gang photos could be taken and even uploaded before the events )
edit: I can’t be there!!! I wanna see!!!
