I am pleased and excited to announce a Space Marine event that everyone who takes part in will remember for a very long time, and that for those that come after will say they wish they had been there.

This is also not just another tournament, or completion though, this is an opportunity to take part in something that will give help to a wounded hero and their family.

Please have a look at the following two links, they are still somewhat under construction, but it is never to early for people to start expressing an interest, and it is certainly no true that donations need wait either.

Whether you can take part in the event or not, we would be extremely gratefull if members would print the below flyer and have it posted up somewhere to allow this event to have the greatest chance of being the huge success it has the potential to be.

Additionally if anyone would like me to send them the flyer as a PDF/word doc. please send me a message and i will forward them to you as they were somewhat clearer than the image.
The ideal places to approach would be your local Games Workshop store, any independent stockist of the models, bookstores that sell the Black Library literature, tabletop gaming clubs, and anyone who sells video games.

To date we have THQ on board with this and they will be posting the event on their facebook, twitter and web pages.

Also i am currently in talks with Games Workshop in regard to their contribution, and though it is so far unclear as to what level of commitment this will be, the fact they responded at all bodes well, I also have a meet arranged at Games Day UK with them.

Initially we are not considering people joining on a Chapter level, but more as individuals, and should the event have the hoped for numbers, it will be vital to have players of the calibre found here to be able to spread out, among the more "casual" players to assist in organising, and also experienced in playing the game in ways different from standard public games. We are however not opposed to people wishing to join as a team, and should this be desired we will attempt to accommodate as much as we can.

As I have mentioned we are still in the early stages and how it is set up and will run will almost definitely change between now and the start of the event.

So i hope we can see a good show of numbers from the Gothic Wars community, and remember you are free to donate as much or little as you choose and all donations go 100% to the charity.

In advance i would like to thank the community in general for any assistance, donations and participation you can offer.

As for myself been in the AF for 10 years this past October. When I saw this I was vary pleased and happy to see the respect Skotten of the Space wolfs have given toward the Military. Like Skotten I have found many many vets that are into Warhammer 40K. I got into it when I was stationed in Alaska, being its a great way to do something indoors when it was really cold out there. Was something I truly really got into with many other vets that was still in or that got out. Been following 40K stories ever since then for over 8 years now.

So to this like to offer other people to join me playing this weekend in this event or just to play in general. I don't exspect everyone to do the 41 hour but if you play a few hours with me during this time I will donate 5 pounds(since its a UK site its per pound not dollar) per person.

An ask the fellow player that join me to just donate 5 pounds as well. Will add to 10 pounds per person and if we get least 10 people that 100 pounds. I dont have a limit on how many can join just let me know message me if you are joining on here or Xbox live my Gamer tag is Petey41K.

Every lil bit helps know me being a Vet don't mean we all cant help this cause. Pretty sure can get least 20 people to do this I hope over that weekend. I will message what people I have on my friends list on Xbox as well. Hope to see you all on the battle field Battle Brothers!

I know that the higheriarchy of the thousand sons will be doing this event and i know that we will try to get as many members to join in this as we can get probably staggered through the event.

If I am not a space wolf will I still be able to fight for the imperium.
