Killed everything else on the table though And making three 12'' charges in my last game certainly helped.

Ok. I marked myself down as going. As of now there is nothing on my family calendar for that day, but I make no promises . If I actually make it, I am seriously considering bringing Santa Logan. We all know how this has gone the last couple times I committed to going this far in advance...

If you make it there, I challenge. Round 1, punk. Andrew will just have to wait until January to avenge his frisbees.

John, I would like to know if you're still in for next week. If not, I'll direct my hate to someone else. Maybe that Dave Cutts guy. Stupid tall people.

And I got dissed for my hair jab at Ian.

On a serious note: Is there a chance to use the new objectives in the Baal book. They look really good.

Nope I, of course, am out. A coworker died and the funeral is Saturday at 11:00am. At least it's a legitimately unpredictable reason.

Well, then.

Mighty Tee-oh, the bigger they are the more we enjoy see 'em fall. I issue a challenge to the David Cutts guy!

Which means when taking pix for FB, you gotta make sure to get me standing in front of him. It's a good height gag.

Results:

Best Overall - me. Wave Serpents broken, blah, blah, blah, eldar broken, etc.
Best Imperial - Jonathan's Imperial forces amalgamation
Best Xeno - Mike Fox's orks
Best Paint - Paul's Imp. fists
Best Sportsman - Benny (I hope I got that right)

Some new faces, Christmas themed goofery, lotsa fun.

I like that I wasn't feeling any real pressure to win game three, Darrel and I just slugging it out, fun, fun. I hope new comer Zach will come back and give Adam's Imp Knights the drubbing they so need.

It is nice to get Top Spot after being a tourney fixture for so long.

Alright, Adam, go ahead and reveal my sectret to having won.

Don't forget to mention we forgot to do the scenario special Christmas rules in our game, second round. Wow, you would think two teachers could get the directions right, geez! I really enjoyed our game. Gerantius is the bomb, and having him take down your Knight made the game for me, even making losing not a problem. Great to see young faces too. Ian did a fly by, sure missed his wolves, NOT! (hehe).

Another great event by Travis, thanks man. I wonder what Jan. will be, oh, LVO practice. I guess I will bring my Stompa! It is the answer to your Wave Serpent spam. Bring it Casey!

Moment of silence was done for the one that shall not be mentioned (aka John, we missed ya).

My theory is that because you weren't able to talk you were better able to concentrate on the game.

As for my last game, it wasn't a drubbing. He just up and quit saying he wasn't having fun. He said he didn't like having to hide from my shooting. If it had gone to a full game it would have been close and could have gone either way. He may like the Dark Eldar look but, in my opinion, if your going to play a heavy shooting army that is very fragile, you are going to be ducking and hiding alot,

He had a better chance of beating me than Mike

Mega armor stops for no one. Unless you push a knight Titan over on them.

For those wondering; full on laryngitis, like Selma Diamond after four packs of smokes and cheering on a Yankees double header. During game 3, Darrel said he heard maybe a third of what I tried to say.

As our last tourney has passed, I'd like to still have some of our regulars' attention while the thread lives: I have winter break coming up and I am woefully behind on play time. Anyone up for play time next week? Mon or Tuesday? I have time through the first two weeks in January, too. PM here on dakka, FB too, etc.

@Andrew
When I did one last look 'round before leaving on Saturday, it'd be hard to tell if the head might've fallen under some post X-mas debris, a few santa hats, candy cane wrappers, etc. Sorry, man.

There is a tourney next week. I believe its 1850 and will include the missions for LVO. That includes the faq.

Any way Travis can hit up Reece and make this an ITC event? Since its LVO style. It would be awesome if it is. And very easy to make it happen.

Wrong thread. I would post this in the 2015 thread found here:
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/629731.page

And I would post it on the store Facebook page for the event, found here:
