Don't know ...

Chris,
Thanks for running the Devestation games. I counted my points and figured that I still had about 2300 points remaining. It would be interesting to try those points vs. a fresh 2000 point army, because although I would have more points, most of my support units were destroyed so I feel like I would be tactically weaker.

Dave, thanks for the game.

Hmmm... that would have been an interesting game vs. me. I would have had fewer points (about 1900 total) but 2 rampaging Vampire Lords and the ability to raise new units of zombies. I also ended the game with 2 units of Spirit Hosts that could wreak havoc against your warmachines (ethereal!).

I look forward to playing your Empire this Friday if you are up for it.

Yeah, sorry about my slow as molasses pace...this was my first 3000 pt Warhammer game, and frankly I was a bit overwhelmed by how many units I had to worry about! That, and as you said, the Orcs are frustratingly difficult to win with. I was surprised to see my squig hoppers actually last longer than one round of combat...I'm convinced that they are a great unit, I just need to learn to finesse their movement and get the charge off....at least once! I am also determined to make the best of my Orcs and Goblins despite the handicapped army book...As I understand they may get a new (hopefully more competitive) book mid year.


@ Chris - Thanks, really, for all the work you did setting these tournaments up. The scenarios were really great, and I had a great time with the 1750pt scale 40K games. I got lucky in my pairings (not to diminish the skills of anyone I played against at all, they were all hard fought games! I just could have had some more difficult lists to face...like Tyson's Nids, or Dave's Wolves...), so I can see why some hard core tourneys run 5 rounds....I just couldn't imagine participating in one that long!

Again, not everyone always speaks up, but I know they...we all appreciate that you stepped up to make this happen this past weekend.

Thanks

@ Todd - Thanks so much for fronting the prize support for the top 3! We all really appreciate you putting up with us and all our stuff every Friday...and on that note...see you Friday!

Dave B

You are very welcome ... and remember ... spend it all in one place

Won't see you guys this Friday as my oldest daughter is dancing in Santa Clara with her dance team so I will be out of town (I know ... me ... not here .. woah). Martin will be holding the house down so be nice to him

So if Todd's gone, where should we put the keg?

I keed I keed...

Thanks for showing up everyone, the tournament ran great and it was awesome seeing 16 1750 point games going on! Also, thanks Todd for the prize support!

Thanks to everyone for a great turnout on Saturday and to Chris for running it. The adepticon missions ran extremely smoothly. I think I might try to use the random mission one more often.
