Hi everone
Just a quick note on what happen over the weekend there. Will link a proper report later on.
Game 1 - Orks, Kill mission on Gamma, Loss.
Was going well until turn 5, left him with somthing like 3 scoring units & a few under 50%. Warsmith fail to hit his Killer can... all over pretty much with me having a squad falling back (as in me moven them back so they could not be charge) & everthing else dead. Old score been 13 to him 7 to me. It was like 300 the story/movie
Only problem had was trying to sort out some rules as he keep thinking orks hit on a 4+. Over all was a alright game & very hard fought.
Game 2 - Tau - Recon, Omega, Loss
Going well & would have been a draw if he did not blow up on my Predator in the last turn. He had a good laught when I rolled Immobile for one of his Tank & with decoy I got a 6, nothing can escape a bullet no matter how fast they go lol. But good game was just a little bit werry when his friends started talking to him while looking that my list (Spanish lot was down there) but other than that good game & he said he found/seeing the Predator phalanx scary.
Game 3 - Space Wolves, Take & Hold Gamme
Another good game, hard fought & would have won it in the end if I never forgoten to move my Predator that had loss a weapon.
Game 4 - Marines, Cleanse, Gamma Win
Great game vs one of the Edinbrugh lot.... so that now 4 GT I fought someone from Edinbrugh. I/the Refs could not belive I feiled 3x Armour Saves for my Warsmith vs Fury power, 3 ones Another good game
Game 5 Necrons, Loot, Omega. loss
The hardest fought game that went on 9 turns. Just went bad for me from immobile my own tanks when trying to get the object on turn 6 just incase it ended. But went on & he mange to get his Destroyer to out flank me useing the good amount of terrain we had on the table.
Game 6 - Orks, Kill everthing Omega, win
This was No1 friend. Was very hard killing all those orks to get them down. Once he got into range of flamers I send my 3 squads of Obliterators with my Warsmith in wait. Pulled it off in the end as all his units that where on where under 50% while I had 2x Preds & one 5 man squad left.
So did not get through but end of the day it was a good event, no big issue other than seeing two spanish friends arguing during there game on round 5 I think. Also there was a few of them talking about oppent list*.
One more thing again with spanish, was a shame one of them had a fit on round 6 & bump there chin on the table. Rush off to hosbital (sp). Though he did phone before the award to say he ok & thanks for a great weekend.
Social side thing was brillaint. My friend Iain, everone knew as the funny guy.... which was shown a lot when the Ruby (sp) game was on with England vs France.
Also Pete Foly from the Eavy Metal team like my Iron Warriors conversion & painting, got quite a lot of good comments from people walking by & also the guy who came 3rd (Iron Warriors as well).
There no one army that stood out as such, like last year Mech Eldar & Tau where everwhere... not this year. Though there was a fair few more Necrons than before/past events I got to say. Suprise that the lack of Chaos, 10 IWs a few Black Legion, DIY & Slannesh... somthing like 36 Chaos.
Armies up for painting where Dark Angels (very nice), Chaos Slannesh (it been up a few times), Eldar that won last year, another Eldar, Orks & the winner had a very nice Necrons a lot free hand painting... though he is from the Britol (sp) lot & they are... I hate them for there painting abiltys lol.
Top 3:
1st Tau, spanish guy
2nd Eldar
3rd Iron Warriors, one of the lot who me & co where hanging with & talking/winding them up.
But again great event over all & no big issue like GT finial of the 1 inch rule
