Yeah, I am 90% sure I am bringing my good old Wolves. I have been playing them the most lately and feel best quipped to win with them. I have found a list that is my list's weakness though, and I know a few guys coming with that build so that is another reason I am considering BTs as they are the counter to that list! Haha, I love the meta! It's fun just trying to outfox everyone before the tournament even starts!

I am sticking to what I know, though. Last time I brought a spoiler list, I never faced the list I was trying to spoil.

Either way, I am really looking forward to this tournament. It may be small but the very high skill level of those playing means it will be tougher than a larger tournament by a large margin. There are going to be few, if any easy games this weekend, which is great.

I prefer to use painted models too. Unfortunately I don't own any. So I can do what I want, sweet.

Yeah, that army is mostly painted, but not the broadsides which I have been playing with.

On another note, are you interested in joining my carpool to the event? I think you should be passing right by my house to get to it.

Potentially. I've got Janthkin coming with me, so as long as all 3 of us can fit in one car, it should be fine, assuming you actually are on the way.

PM me your address and we'll discuss further...

Plus we've got Yakface coming, Mortetvie, Manimal, Lambadomy, my buddies from NorCal will be surprising some people, Janthkin and many, many more. This is going to be some really tough competition.

#1. How are you doing first round pairings?

#2. Can you request a dance partner for the first round?

Can you "randomly" pair all of the Space Wolf players to face each other?

@Mortetvie
I have nightmares of invincible Falcons to this day! Haha.

@Janthkin
Oh yeah, well then he can pair-up all the Bug players, too!

Oh yeah, this isn't 4th ed, and Janthkin will probably be the only one.

Anyone know if the location for this event is usually warm or cold or anything? Random question but Now that I think about it, I want to know how many layers I should put on!

Reese needs to be punished for my omission.

He needs to stop dodging me, and take his whoopin' like a man.

Nash, round #1, make it happen!

Reese needs to be punished for including me.

I don't know who is second-worst in this tournament but Nash, figure it out and pair them with me. Or at least find me a Necron player.

Now I feel left out completely....(Insert sad face here)but I dont think anyone would be gunning for me if I was playing. And Nash hook Mike up with a week player, I mean come on look at his pathetic standings in last years tournament record. 137 losses no wonder he started Space Wolves

I'm really looking forward to this, but I'm still trying to decide which army to bring.... guard, orks, or nids?

Guard would seem like the way to go, but for the orks and nids I can bring painted models, and prove to the people I played against in the sprue posse RTTs that I do actually have painted models.

My spies have come back to me with reports that at least one person is going to be playing with dark angels...

My spies = I'm loaning Manimal my dark angels army....

Beware the new boogeyman!

All kidding aside, they are actually kinda mean beans....

Rob, i think you should dark-horse it with your nids, you and janthkin can play spoiler to so many people who aren't ready for the speed. But then after saying that, you'll end up getting paired with dark eldar in consecutive matches.

Rob you should play guard, if you play nids or orks you may have to move a model.

And I agree Levi, 137 losses is a lot, I need an opponent I'll have a chance against.
