Time for new 40k nonsense at Drawbridge Games. This time we’re inspired by a ridiculous meme debate that is making its rounds on social media. Who cares whether 100 humans can defeat a Gorilla? What we care about is how much can 100 Imperial Guardsmen handle? What can take 100 T’au Fire Warriors, Aeldari Guardians, Tyranid Gaunts, or Necron Warriors? Let’s find out on the tabletop!

The event will take place on Saturday, June 7th starting at noon at Drawbridge Games in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. Players can bring their troops and any big models with which they want to test their luck against these hordes. Can they take a Lord of Skulls? How about a Warhound Titan? Would a Gorkanaut kill the 100 while a Morkanaut would fail to?

For bringing line troops, players can bring models with special weapons but they’ll all have only the basic gear of a line trooper. All models must be painted and based (at least earnest attempt). We will only run groups that can reach 100 models total, and they’ll have limited combined datasheets in the groups (see the chart below). There will be a door prize, and participants can get entry into the drawing by running either side (a horde or a big model), by painting up at least 20 new infantry models for the event, by bringing an entire 100 models of one type themselves (huge undertaking!), and by managing to win with any horde against highest points cost foe they can manage.
