Tribemeet UK 2022 - Event details

The Trgedy of Rockdrill Omega Rockdrill: Part 2

Aside from afew cleaver slices here and there, and having to pay the radioactive decontamination laundry bill for the captains second favorite cape, the crew were still in high spirits after the failed meat heist!
Fortunately, the Captain knew a guy, who knew a guy, who told a guy, that he knew where they store the THUNDERCUBE! Union surplus ammo! *whispering* …in the ammo storage, below the Union THUNDERCUBE!…

Great, there’s nobody around, this’ll be easy!

Colin gets a good view of the stash “it’s over there boss! I think I see someone!” (This is the only useful thing he will do: he missed every single shot)

“FILTHY UNION CASUALS!”

21A8C1F8-D35D-4771-8ADD-E923409DCFBF.jpeg


ROR push forward to secure the loot, but overbearing firepower is too much to bear!

In the right corridor, Micheal grabs the box and closes his eyes as he takes a point blank flame burst!
F9C15C54-07F9-42F3-A517-5B5551BAAF7F.jpeg


Some daemon from the warp gets captured on the surveillance footage, it saves Micheal from an agonising death, only to allow him to get owned by the Juve ‘Butters’! …a cruel spirit indeed!
F8E1DF26-6701-4B83-89AE-EBA8BA04B5FE.jpeg


In the centre, Byron gets curb stomped, suffering multiple injuries! (His stitches from Marcos cleaver arnt even healed yet!)

Nial lies in a pool of blood and reaches out a hand…”help me Captain!”
890FE48B-6EAE-4C8A-8D8D-18EA15958D20.jpeg


The Captain has already grabbed the ammo and heroically hides as Nial gets one of his eyes removed! The Captain feels really really bad as he listens to the screams, honest!

Marty single handedly holds the centre! Taking down four Union Casuals and forcing a bottle roll which is only just failed!
ED12F3BC-2AD8-4E06-B497-EC122BA4BB44.jpeg


The Captain springs from his hiding place when he realises the enemy are gone and congratulates Marty on such a fine job, he knew he could do it!

Defeat for @headcase14
 
In the name of being transparent, here's an update of the TribeMeet funding position:
All attendee dues have been recovered.
We have the balance to pay to the showground for event, camping and bins/cleaning (£995.20 - bins estmated, tbc shortly)

The overall position is we have approx £87 GBP left to carry forwards to next year. As always, this is a not for profit event, we will be using these funds to go towards making the event bigger and better next time - the committee doesn't get a cut. This is also the first time it hasn't cost the committee anything more than time and modelling materials to run it! That's what happens when you put money people in charge of the funds rather than ideas people - madness :eek:
 
Pitfighter PETE! Round 2

Short story is: HE WON!
It was the age old tactic of letting all the other fighters beat each other to a pulp, then swooping in to finish off the brave exhausted one!

In all the excitement, the Captain forgot to take pictures, so here’s a couple of glory shots of the Captain and co, cheering PETE!’s victory! (They we’re especially happy when he splashed his winnings on not one, but two hareem!)

Later on…
The Captain hears news that one of the molemen (his life long frenemies) ‘Meat Truck’ is fighting in the Union ’CUBE!, so he gets there early to get a good seat!
C766BB09-187B-4CF9-A74E-42DEC449D7D1.jpeg


3…2…1…ACTIVATE!
FFFA8DC7-BA10-4CB3-98E3-9E8BE218A91A.jpeg


Just as the four fighters square up, a latecomer jumps in from the audience, sending the crowd into a frenzy at such a spectacular entrance!
83F25ED1-A009-4BF4-8C83-9396B931151C.jpeg

In all the ruckus, the Captain feels it is the right time to throw his full tin of trl-bru, hoping to clunk one of the contestants!
….he does, but…. Whether it was his aim or poor eyesight or a bit of both, he catches Meat Truck straight in the temple, knocking him clean out!

!……

[exit the Captain]
 
Pitfighter PETE! Round 3:

The centre fighter lies prone, a suspicious orange and blue tin lies nearby

PETE! Keeps his distance, Zapan has been busy upgrading huu it s chrome form
645F370F-E31D-4EB9-9590-34570E0CA92D.jpeg


The crowd get restless and start booing! the decision to Release The Beast! Is made!
38F38E10-410F-42DA-9905-2BAB100B04A8.jpeg


It attacks the much more delicious looking PETE!, who manages to crawl out of the fray
1F4E40EB-00F2-48B7-AEEE-2D9AB08C0D14.jpeg


But it doesn’t take long for the Zapster to slay the creature and finish off his opponent

Everyone knows that the Captain likes to treat his cyborgs to an evening of PLEASURECUBE! after each fight. A fellow Goliath leader approaches him
“Hey Captain, I hear you always have a party for Goliaths and Leaguers, over this way is it?”
F2822F86-9E7A-4421-9AFE-993338BAD413.jpeg

The Captain looks at the pathetic looking specimen, obviously overcompensating with that kind of weaponry.
“Hmmm ….yeah…. No ……mm”
The Captain searches for the right words
“Sorry, you’re just so ugly, don’t want to spoil the vibe, know what I mean??”
 
Thanks for an awesome wkend of laughs and gaming fellow yaks! Super chuffed to win the golden yak and sportsman prize, really shows what a laugh I was having anyway 😂

Every game was fantastic fun, thanks to all my opponents. A few of favourite moments (in no particular order)

my first ever game of NCE and first dice roll of the day I down my own ganger Dix by blasting him in the back of the head with a heavy stubber.

my XP 0 Juve headshotting a rampaging Spyrer with Stub gun on a 6 followed by a 6 and 6

the drunken bar fight during a fateful raid on Trollholme when clockworks gang came steaming out the bar and there was an enormous brawl in the kebab strewed streets

running Out of ammo in the rafters against a Cawdor swarm desperately trying to hold ground and forging the birth of Dangerous Doug the gnarliest juve in the Underhive

Buff the ganger I named after my sister suffering a head wound and for stupidity for the entire wkend campaign… I told her it was entirely suitable really

Finally, Dangerous Doug living up to his name bum-rushing a group of 3x enforcers armed only with a knife shivving one in the guts and then curbstomping another like the savage topless nut job he is.

Can’t wait until the next one!

Ah, good times!

Ah, less good times :(

Thoroughly deserved though bud, you took spyrers in your first game of Necromunda and put 4 of them down, thats no mean feat, and all with a mile wide smile on your face the entire time (in a non psychopathic way, honest!)
 
The deadline for secret santa entrants is fast approaching (11.59pm Friday) quite a few of the tribemeet attendees said they would like to join in so here’s your chance 😀
 
The tragedy of Rockdrill Omega Rockdrill:
Part 4 (Finalè)

The party is Rockin’ at the PLEASURECUBE!

THE ALARM HAS SOUNDED! Looks like trouble!
DEE3EFF1-1839-4614-8334-4141FA87D357.jpeg


The Captain bravely leads from the back! “Go boys! There’s no time to get dried and put yer clothes on, just get out there!!”

“Just wrap a towel around, it’ll be fine!”
66FFFD05-D508-43B6-9AFC-6950E9D631B3.jpeg


“There they are! No milk drinkers allowed!”
74703D31-53BC-4A4E-96CE-AB9952E53004.jpeg


“They’ve snuck around the side too boss!”

Part 4 continued:

The first Rockdrill wave die in a hail of bullets and melta fire (they actually die, not just Ooa!)
3FB5ADBB-A299-4A07-8BFD-F80A2B0C4602.jpeg


The second Rockdrill wave get afew shots off, but they’re still pretty oiled up or have soap in they’re eyes! Nothing hits, and a charge supported by a close range melta blast, sees the Omega line crumble!
F3DD4F99-5CB9-4C7F-B3BE-A6C96E75D7F3.jpeg


The murderous Roger Headchoppa, weathers the storm and makes it into snip range of the raiders leader! …he lands two hits…he only needs one 6 to make the chop………….
Double 1…not even a wound!
D8F2F964-B7F1-4650-BEE0-DE6B18A6B7AD.jpeg


A karate kick in the back sees roger stumble and get stomped unconscious. The Captain survives a lash of flame but takes a hit, leaving the leadership 6 Abdul in charge!
8B9A1F0D-CC00-40B0-AB5D-D5793C238EBB.jpeg

Abdul follows his senses, grabs the Captain and leaves Colin and the injured to their doom! The PLEASURECUBE! is lost!

Luckily Marty was putting sudacrem on his spear wound back at base, but otherwise, the whole crew lay dead, or were taken captive, no doubt to spend their last in the THUNDERCUBE!

Right! Let’s get back to the PARTY!!!

VICTORY TO @Ironslag69
(Apologies but I forgot the name of your gang and leader, if you wouldn’t mind filling me in so they may be remembered in the big book of clone grudges ta!)

Up next: League + THUNDERCUBE! Final!
(The troll has already spoiled the result, naturally)
 
THUNDERCUBE! LEAGUE FINAL:

Zapan takes centre spot as the crowd go wild!

Someone sticks their hand in my overhead shot, to help convey scale obviously!
4BDC61DA-B134-405B-A115-119273CFEFDE.jpeg


The beaten up and defeated survivors of Rockdrill Omega Rockdrill cheer for PETE!
A3E66BF5-76C4-4CC7-8D82-36624C04CDF8.jpeg


It doesn’t take zapan long to dispatch the blood sacrifices, the other fighters move in cautiously
520B5203-E455-40E4-90FA-F093964B2566.jpeg


PETE! Fires his one and only stub round at zapan, it flies true and makes a massive dint in his beloved chrome
5574ADEF-F726-478C-A641-B9723E586205.jpeg


A tactic that worked well in the past, PETE! Slinks off to the ‘corner’ and does some floss dancing while blood flows in the centre
0E179A3F-9386-40B9-83C1-9351EA000A37.jpeg


The flossing wasn’t enough, neither was the ferocious charge, Zapan takes down PETE! In a roar of applause!! Zapan is now the first official THUNDERCUBE! League champion! But can he make it as the ultimate grand champion and show the Union scum how it’s done!?

I don't think the Smurfs hit the table. I used my lonesome Smurf as a new ganger who was killed in his first game. @Resmire brought his Smurfs but didn't play them as his gang.

@ClockworkOrange played as Pitslaves with Troll reinforcements, so there weren't even that many trolls in attendance!

They were around though... Present in both 'Cubes were distinctly trollish crowd members and ring girls. I had one to use as a new Juve but never got to use him.

I played my smurfs but the trolls were hiding in the thunderdome...
