Come see the latest PICS of GW’s new Organized Play Activity Pack for Tank Shock!

We now have visual confirmation of Tank Shock and just what exactly Games Workshop is encouraging retailers to do with these kits. It looks like a good mix of Hobby, Gameplay and Community Building activities – all with suggested prizes.

So just some of the key call-outs here:

  • Six vehicle-themed activities covering building, painting, and gaming – Two of the “Events” are:
    • Armoured Escalation – a Mini “Armies of Parade” Day
    • Engines of War – Sounds like a timed building competition
  • These “flyers” are for the retail side of the house and read like a “how-to” marketing campaign
  • This event is designed to increase sales by getting people to build, paint and game – preferably in the store.

It’s an admirable goal for all the parties involved. I actually like building models in a group – the table talk does help the time go by faster and you get to share building tips and tricks. Heck, if any of my local retailers are running this event I might just go pick-up an Tyrannofex for the event. Why? Because I want one and this sounds like a good way to spend an afternoon. Or maybe I’m just a sucker for hanging out with like minded hobbyists.
