The Big Game III date has been announced and it will be Saturday, March 16th, 2013. More details to follow, but start making plans now!
As with the past two years we will be looking for locations all over the world to join in the World's Biggest Apocalypse Battle! All you need to do is follow our simple objective scoring rules and your local Apocalypse battle can be part of The Big Game.
So if you want to be part of The Big Game (and why wouldn't you?), just drop me a line at alec (at) propworx (dot) com.
So to start, how about a recap of the World Records, all set in year one of The Big Game.
The
records were initially collected and kept by Siegeworld, the guys
who started the mega-apocalypse games. Siegeworld is a founding
member of the Apocalypse40K forums and their records have been
recognized by all the major Apocalypse clubs. These records are kept
in a special thread on the Apocalypse40K Forum and reprinted here.
Most Points in a Single Game
This requires all models to participate in a continuous game on one table interconnected or otherwise. All models must be painted (3 colors + based) and the game must last 4+ turns over an unbroken time period (eg-with some breaks, but no "pause and come back the next day").
RECORD:
The Big Game, Los Angeles Battle Bunker, January 22, 2011, 739,247
Most Points in a Single Battle
Same as Most Points in a Single Game, but models don't need to be painted, and one or more discontinuous tables. Anything goes so long as it is interrelated and simultaneous. No turn requirements.
RECORD:
Most Points in a Single Battle - Multiple Locations
Same as Most Points in a Single Battle, but allows for multi-location play.

RECORD:
The Big Game, January 22, 2011, 22 locations in 5 countries 2,310,835 points
Note
that this record was added so that record The Big Game set
on January 22nd at 22 locations, is distinguished from a single
location battle. Siegeworld agreed that a multiple location event
should have a different record from a single location event since it
wouldn't be fair for one location to have to compete with multiple
locations for a record. Plus, we all want everyone competing for
different records and pushing the limits!
Most Minis in a Single Battle
See Most Points in a Single Battle (single location). Same restrictions apply. This record is anything goes so long as it is interrelated and simultaneous. A miniature is counted as any piece which has its own base or does not use a base. Essentially, if it can be moved on its own (thus a swarm base is a single miniature).

This is the year to break some of those records, methinks...
I will see if my local group is interested in joining in. I sounds like fun!
We would love to have you guys involved Dracus!
