Just a reminder, for those who don’t have the Cancon booklet to hand... the tournament details are:
The tournament will be run in 6 rounds over 2 days.
Warbands can be up to, and not exceeding, 1500pts (following all the restrictions as per the Rulebook), using any rules (including Hyperborea and Olympus) published up to 31 December 2011 ... with apologies to all the Mycenaeans who are still waiting on Croc Tales 7 Harbingers (or equivalents) may start at Ka 2 (or equivalent). Equipment should be close to What You See Is What You Get. (Armour may be one grade higher than appears on the mini, all weapons should be correctly represented except Javelins & Throwing-clubs). Warband lists must be submitted to the organiser prior to the event. Random elements will be generated by the organiser on submission of the list and be the same across the tournament. Heavy armour may not be taken in combination with a shield. Ka levels may be acquired throughout the tournament via victory in Provocation (as per the Rulebook). Acquired Ka powers will be determined randomly by the organiser. Where the player does not bring the miniature(s) for particular powers (e.g. Favoured of Bast) they will get the lowest numbered power they do not already have.

Robert's entry has arrived, and he's now registered.
A reminder to all... we are only 9 days away from Cancon, and so far I have only recieved two army lists. Please don't leave it to the last minute!

are MOW's permitted a free magic user's staff? i see they are mentioned in some spells e.g. earth's tremor- but there appears to be no mention of them anywhere in the equipment section or that of the master of words section.

The 'magic user's staff' is descriptive text only, not a piece of specific equipment...

...what Oceanborn said.
It is something used purely for artistic description/'fluff' purposes and is not an item of equipment that can be purchased seperately... and more importantly, does not mean that a sorcerer comes with a 'free' hand weapon.

Just in case anyone else is having trouble finding the most up-to-date warband generator, it is available at:
http://members.iinet.net.au/~markradge/ Includes: Aegyptus from rulebook (note, priests of amun may only be selected as the race of the Harbinger due to the wording of the rules in the book) Olympus, including Satyrs, Minotaurs, Spartans and Myceaneans from Croc Tales & the playtest book Wendigo from the book Necropolis Guard from Croc Tales I think that is everything....regardless, anything that was released before April 2011 is in this generator.

I second Pakhet. Thanks Erik and Nick for coming up with an interesting and entertaining set of scenarios and to my opponents.
Next year, if I can get the painting done, I'll try Khanum for a change. The sand hippies need some love. I hope I can do as well for Leviathan.

I really liked the elemental affects. added a random element to the game same with the themed tables (though it took a while for that to click) ps i hope i can go to leviaithon and MOAB this year... lets see how the dates fall.

Here are the tournament results:
CanCon 2012 Wargods of Aegyptus - The Shards of Canah Overall ranking
Battle score ranking
Sports score ranking
Painting score ranking
Champions of Ma'at - for collecting the elements of Air, Earth, Fire and Water: Barry, Mark and Patrick Three players also ended the tournament with Ka 3 harbingers - Barry, Mark and Rex. Unsurprisingly, Shane's Titan Overlord was never engaged in provocation... Thankyou to everyone for attending. Not sure at this stage but I'll probably be running Wargods at CanCon next year, assuming there is the interest.

Actually, Sobek-E-Thump was Ka 4 by day 2 (with Savage Bite, mighty blow and battering tail and an attack rating of 10) and with maybe a little softening up with missiles (even my sobeki had slings), I would have sent him in against Shane's Titan Overlord.

I can't believe the 'plastic' or crayon titans didn't come last for painting?!?!
Yeah i can't believe noone wanted to try me for provocation.....
