It was announced last week that "Motor City Mayhem 2021" a Warhammer 40,000 Singles/Doubles tournament will be taking place in Southfield, MI at the Best Western Premier Hotel and Convention Center on April 23rd-25th, 2021.
Friday April 23rd is the 2v2 Team Tournament "Team up with a friend in our casual, 3 round 2v2 team tournament! Up to 64 team slots available."
Saturday and Sunday, April 24th-25th "Compete against a field of up to 128 players in our 5 round premier competitive event!"
Unfortunately I already have plans with my wife on that Saturday afternoon (nieces wedding) so the 2 day Singles Tournament is out of the question, but attending the Doubles Tournament on Friday would be a possibility. Southfield, MI is only a 2.5 hour drive, so it is not that far, we can drive there real early Friday morning, play in the Doubles Tournament and then spend the night there to relax and drive back home on Saturday morning.
The next step was to see if my son was interested, this was a no brainer, right away he had said.
The next hurdle was just to verify the time of my nieces wedding, we confirmed with my wife that it was in the afternoon (actually pretty late, 4:30 PM) so we were then all set.
I registered for the event on their website and booked our room right after. The event is offering a full refund policy (if you cancel on your own by April 7th) or if the event is cancelled due to government restrictions. So as we get closer, we should know what the status is.
The event packets are not yet released, but we are assuming that it will be 2000 points per Team (1000 points per player), so that is why in yesterdays Weekly Chronicle I am starting to test out some 1000 point lists for my half of the Team. The good news is that I am fully painted for basically every 1000 point combination that I would like to play, there may be a small chance that something will have to be painted, but unlikely. My son on the other hand will be busy for the next three months.
Hopefully this event will be happening, it will be nice to finally get away for an event.
