Game that size would take much longer than a club night. Especially with the speed our lot play at.
Star Wars Legion - Rebels
Guildball - Alchemists
Blood Bowl - Lizardmen

I couldn't field 5,000pts of Dwarves without going OTT on the magic items and Lords/Heroes etc but 3,000 shouldn't be too difficult.

For a stunty I'm a damn fast player! Movement, none. Magic, none. Shooting, FIRE THE CANNONS! Simple

You might be, but game slows down hugely once combat is struck. 6 times the size, 6 times the combat phase. Multiplayer battles always slow down, more so when game size goes up. But a weekend game would be ideal, not pretending I had something similar planned for June

I just like the idea of a left flank consisting of 4 or 5 units(or more) rather than just 1!! How much to hire the hall on a weekend?

Good idea, sounds like we could have an all-dayer taking shape.

I could field 1,500/2,000 pts WoC (depending on if I include my Chaos Dragon).
