It was a long rainy drive home, with my hung over head throbbing every mile of the way. But I have to admit that it was well worth it! First of all I would like to congratulate Old Shatter Hands for winning Best Painted Model. He had a Tau suit that was outstanding. Also, grats goes out to Danny Internets for winning Renaissance Man. Well done!
I will be writing up a complete review of the event tomorrow, right now my head hurts too much. But I can easily say that this event is ranged right up there with Bol...er...Wargames Con with the best events I have ever attended. I won my first three games, but lost my fourth, eliminating me from the Sunday Playoffs. But I'm standing proud... winning those three games was no small feat! I would say 95 percent of the dudes at the open were serious tournament gamers and they came to play. It was like a huge Hard Boys!
Any way, time to go watch the end of Return of the Jedi on Spike, drink lots of water, and crash. (the drive home took almost 8 hours.) :(
More to come!

ReplyDeleteMore to come is my tag line!
ReplyDeleteCheater! HQ Chaplains have 3 attacks base, not 4...and you kept forgetting to mark your immobilized razorbacks!
ReplyDeletelol
Seriously great game. Tough fought games like that are why I come to tournaments. After that game I had a massive 40k high from loosing such a hard fought game that I was completely out of it for my 4'th round opponent...who promptly handed me my ass for not paying close enough attention.
Looking forward to playing you again sometime.
Lol, yah I realized game 4 when I actually looked at the codex. :) Didn't do me much good! He only lasted more than a round and a half once in four games. And hell, I asked every one to help me keep track of damage. Your fault!
