Any news from our Admirals on if they'll be running BFG this year? I hope so!

The Taladrians first made contact with the Tau Empire in M41.997.89 During a midphase of Tau Expansion.

This lead to some small but sporadic conflicts. The situation got worse when during a peace meeting on To'lo station (Nuetral station) 5 diplomats and 8 ambassadors from the Water caste and Taladrian council died mysteriously aboard the Niccasar frigate Ya'Mal. To both sides surprise This immediately lead to a joint Taladrian/Tau investigation into the matter, Without any reprisals. This would later prove to be the foundation that lead to the Taladrians bieng encorporated into the Tau Empire.

The Taladrian Conclave is small; just under a dozen systems under there control with 7 major planets inhabited. Otca bieng there main planet.

Un-BFG related, but since the topic title is open enough... I put in for an Epic Armageddon tourney on Saturday, with a possible Titan vs Titan game that night. There's also likely to be a Warmaster tourney Friday during the day too.

Question:

Taladrian Conclave
Day: Thursday | Start Time: 9:00 AM | End Time: 12:00 PM
"Come and join us in a night of fun and narrative gameplay"

Is it supposed to be 9pm-12am instead 9am-12pm?
