WAR GAMES CON


Just came back from http://www.wargamescon.com/  in Austin Texas! This is one of my favorite events. Battle points, painting scores, and sportsmanship score were in effect.

more details, my army list and pics!


The crew over at http://www.belloflostsouls.net/ always kick off the summer with this event and it is always a blast.
This Year was the first WGC to take place under 6th edition 40k rules. The event used a battle point system that was challenging yet still friendly and casual in some ways. On Friday I played in the doubles event with Rob Baer as team http://blog.spikeybits.com/  We Played 3 games with Demons and though we won all three failed to secure enough points for a win, but we did take home “best appearance” .

On Saturday I played the first 4 games of the Grand Tournament. After 4 brutal games vs. Imperial Guard,Demons,Necrons,and Chaos/Demons I had secured enough points to qualify for top 16 on Table 4. On Sunday I played the final 3 games for the GT with the other 15 top players. I was able to secure a fantastic score vs. Imperial Guard/Space Marines with 9 thud guns and 9 saber plat forms and advance to table 3. Unfortunately I was unable to win my second game vs. Tyranids with unlimited guants in a relic mission, but I fought hard and secured points in my defeat. My final game was on table 4 again vs. Necrons. My opponent was a friend of mine who admitted that this was a poor match up for him, and I was able to secure enough points for a 4th place finish in the GT after 7 games. I also took home another “best appearance” award.
