Question, for V-Set pieces, what sort of proxies are allowed? Do I have to use V-Set recommendations or can I use 3D prints?

Thanks!

One thing I have started doing is using a Label Printer to print off the names of the characters and then stick that name to the base of the mini...it makes things much easier during gameplay.

I've done a careful read of the event listing, and there are a PILE of events! So many of them look like a lot of fun:
--Jedi Purge sounds really interesting; I've never played in an event like this but it sounds awesome
--Imperial Assault Hunger Games
--Mass Battles of various sorts
--Pod Racing is always popular, from what I hear



Here are the events that are regular competition Star Wars Miniatures as we know it:

Thursday 9:00 am: 175pt Faction Pure Tournament
Create a faction pure squad that is 175 points or less to battle it out. Build in your favorite faction (fringe is not allowed unless it is an all-fringe squad). Characters with affinity will be allowed in whichever factions they can legally be in.

Map List: Restricted
4 hours, $8


Thursday 8:00 pm: 200pt Team Tournament
Light Side/Dark Side 200pts. One person from each team must play a Lightside squad, and the other must play a Darkside squad. Only one copy of each Unique PER TEAM. If you don't have a teammate, we will try and match up single players.

Lightside factions: Old Republic, Republic, Rebel, New Republic, all-Fringe
Darkside factions: Sith, Separatist, Imperial, Yuuzhan Vong, Mandalorian

Map List: Restricted
4 hours, $10


Friday 9:00 am: 200pt All Faction Battle
10 activations. 1 per faction. Affinity doesn't work. Build a squad with exactly 10 activations, one from each faction.
Affinity does not work, and the faction will be determined by the faction symbol on the card.

Map List: Restricted
4 hours, $8


Saturday 10:00 am: 200pt Championship (and the Championship Finals follows at 6:00 but it's really 1 event)
200 pt faction legal tournament. 4 Swiss rounds. Top 4 advance to the finals.

Map List: Restricted
6 hours, $24
[3 more hours for the playoff rounds if you qualify in the Swiss rounds]


Sunday 10:00 am: 150pt V-Set 26 Sealed Event
Use 2 boosters of customized miniatures (14 in total) from v-set 26 to construct a 150-point squad. 4 rounds of Swiss.

Map List: Standard
5 hours, $34 (it costs more because you're getting a bunch of custom miniatures!)




Just for clarification, here are the maps on the Restricted Map List:
--Ravaged Base (aka Commander's Office)
--Remote Listening Post
--Frigid Outpost
--Great Library
--Starport District
--Pirate's Moon SW


The Standard Map List (used only for the Sealed event) is freakin' huge. You can look up the options here: http://www.bloomilk.com/Forums/default.aspx?g=posts&t=31754

Yes this is something for you.

It is its own set of homebrew rules (taught there) and is a super fun, super casual racing style game where you get to have fun racing podracers.

Some of the SWM events are sold out. Is it possible to increase the size/capacity for those events?
