UKGT finials (40k)

[warsmith]

Hi everone

For those intrested, here is the top 10 from the UKGT finial (40k) which happen during the weekend there, from warseer

1: Zinga Valerio: Chaos, i think 2 lash 6 oblit raider army.
2: Fabian Quinn, 2 lash 9 oblit chaos army.
3: Alex Harrison with Space wolves, With 3 rune priests, 2 Squads of long fangs, 4 units of tooled up grey hunters.
4: Julio Torrado Rodriguez: Marines
5: Manuel Andres Fernandez: NECRONS!!!! He had a lord on destroyer with 6 wraiths, monolith, 5 destroyers, 7 immortals, some warriors. Crazy
6: Leonidas Laskaridis: Chaos, Khorne daemon prince, 2 raiders, 2 rhinos, 3 units of zerkers + Khorne terminators
7: Rob Madeley: Chaos Daemons
8: Courtney Rhodes: Orks
9: Daniele de Gemini: Orks
10: Lee Brown : Eldar

Martin Moffet did pretty well, he came 15th overall after getting to table 3 in the end. Apprently if he won it might have been tigh & most like ended 6th overall. But still good to hear he done well.

All armies where rep there/that least there. Not so many nids, I think a lot of people want to wait until a FQA is sorted out.

Dark Eldar where there a bit more than normal. Cheap lance weapon follow by the close combat power. Though a 3rd ed codex they can still do pretty well.

Now I just wounder what the codex Blood Angels will offer.

Surely some mistake....?
Chaos winner and 3 Chaos armies in the top 10..

After all the whining about how GW 'nerfed' the chaos codex on other forums and how terrible they are now....

Aye that the none belive for you, I had to suffer them for 3 year (for those don;t know, mod on a few chaos fourm) I rather let my army do the talk & spend my time thinking of tactica for my force to deal with other armies.

But yes like you said Squinty, game prove it.

I still rememeber when the now current Marine codex was coming out. A lot of people said Dark Angels would be the worst thing ever........yet GT 08 Heat 2. I belive a Double Wing (Raven/Death Wing) force has came 2nd....while the highest Space Marine force with the new codex was 80th-ish.

BUT same time, Marines did win UKGT heat 1 last year which then prove those complain about codex Marine bing rubbish.

It is all about know the strength, weakness (how would you defeat your own force) & know how to play it. Make sure you can do the mission & deal with the armies your most like going to see at the UKGT. Anything can happen.

I will use my Iron Warriors regardless of the rules, for I have faith in the chaos gods they will guide my army to victory ;D

Just wish they bring out codex chaos legion though ;D Miss the 3.5 days.

On another note, for those intrested. Here a link to the 3rd place Space Wolves force. Some intresting though for the mind.
