Website and Scheduling. | Apr 15,2011 |
I know I got behind on the schedule. It has been updated through week 7 now I will have the rest of the schedule up by the end of this week end. With the issues we have had with the website we are going to have to finish this season on the current site. I will be working with a leaugue member on getting a new site up and going. Though our requirement seem simple enough to us it has not translated well to people not familar with the game and league. By having someone that is a member and understands all of our pain we should be able to a much better working site. So if you could please update your results for the games you have played I will get them updated in the standing. Also as a reminder the BQ and draft will be at my house at the end of the season. After I get the schedule update I will set the BQ date. General reminder: Slaughter in Space this memorial day weekend in LA. Lets get a good showing from the league out there. More info and registration packet can be found at www.slaughterinspace.com .

Big Congratulations to both David Fay and Justin Hinderbrandt who earned their golden tickets to Vegas Finals! Photos will be comming soon after the crew has a chance to settle down. All in all, it was a great weekend and everyone seemed to enjoy the new venue and atmosphere. Everything went smoothly and we were done on time with no technical glitches.

Message from Mike Garner | Dec 16,2009 |
I've been Commissioner of the SCGWL for almost seven years, and have seen alot of growth during that period. We've begun two major Indy GT's and have more members than ever before. The SoCal Slaughter and the Slaughter in Space are poised to become two of the main events on the GW circuit. I take some measure of pride in the League's progress, but realize that the League's growth has been a matter of the efforts of many people who made it possible.
It is time for me to step down as Commissioner of the SCGWL. I've been fortunate to be associated with so many excellent people that reflect so well on the League, and the hobby itself. The League has grown beyond any one person, and it's time for new leadership with the drive that will take the League and the Slaughters to the next level. I'm passing on the mantle of leadership to the only group of people that I would entrust something that has meant so much to me for so long.
The League will now be run by the group that made it what it is today, Quentin & Jenn Bohn, Scott & Carol Tiveron, and Mike Ulibarri. These people have given their time, effort, & love to this League over the years, and now it's time for them to lead it into the future. Effective immediately, Quentin Bohn will be Commissioner of the Fantasy side of the League, and Scott Tiveron will be Commissioner of the 40K side. I ask all of you to give them the support that you have given me over the years. I have absolute faith that they will maintain the League in the spirit it has been run in over the last 12 years.
In closing I want you all to know that I appreciate every one of you that was part of the League during the time I was Commissioner. I'd like to especially thank Charlie Nichols, Pat Lowinger, Roman Baker, Ron McLaughlin, Evan Lougheed, Matt Manders, and last, but not least, Jim Zaphirou.
I look forward to getting back to playing Fantasy and seeing all of you at the Championship BBQ on January 23rd.
Mike Garner
3rd Commissioner, Ret. | |

Hey Everybody, Q is laboriosly stat tracking the Slayer Challeges this season (Beastslayer, Mageslayer, and Lordslayer). Make sure you remember to report this kills in the comments section of your battle reports! These challenges are fully optional but are PRIZE-SUPPORTED and will be recorded on our future HALL OF FAME. There can be only one! If you forget the rules or are new, head to the fantasy forums and look for the section FANTASY CHALLENGE AWARDS for all details! Will anyone break last year's leaders? Q was mageslayer, Ensley was lord slayer (an obscene 8!), and I believe there was no winner* for the beastslayer. Time will tell, so happy slaying!

SCGWL Hosts Gateway RTTs August 29th - September 1st. | Aug 09,2008 |
Hey there folks. As many of you have heard, the SCGWL will for the first time host the RTTs on both days for the Gateway Convention. I understand that many of you have not been pleased with the venue in the past, and some of the past organizers. Well, I have good news for all of us. The Stratecicon Conventions are under new ownership who have made plans and taken the steps to revitalize the Conventions. They have heard your concerns, and are working to improve the location.
Now it's time to do our part. If we want the Conventions to pick back up to the good ole days, we have to attend them. We do our part by showing up, having fun, and representing the League, as well as the whole Southern California Gaming Community.
The Saturday August 30th (Aka: Commissioner's B-day) Fantasy RTT will be 2250 points. Special Characters and DOW will be allowed (though I'll still scowl at them). Painting will be scored, but is not required to play. No lists will be required in advance.
The Sunday September 1st 40K RTT will be 1750 points, using 5th Ed.
We will have all new scenarios at both RTTs, designed by our own Competition Committees. Please go to Strategicon.net to register for the events.

Darrian Dalangini Wins Winter 2007 40K Championship | Jun 13,2008 |
Big Congratulations to Darrian "Wee-Man" Dalangini on his first Championship win. It was the closest Championship Game either League has had in a long time. In a hard fought battle, Darrian defeated past Champion Charlie Nichols. This was a big win for Darrian, since Charlie had owned him in the past, and none of us wanted to console Darrian if Charlie slapped him around as usual. Charlie took the loss like a true past Champion. He curled up in the corner and cried into his beer. | |
