Can anyone who's already there tell me what FW is asking for the show-only models?? (both 40k & WH fantasy)

Thanks!

Good luck to everyone going! I have decided that I will be attending next year. I do want to get me some free dakka dice, and maybe play in the tournament.

Hate to say it, but I already started planning for NEXT years adepticon.

And again, best of luck to all going. Make Dakka proud!

Good luck guys! I was supposed to be going for the Fantasy portion, but the guys I was going with backed out, and I ended up having surgery today, so no Adepticon for me. Was looking forward to running into some Dakkaites. Maybe next year.

Wait, really? That lazy git!

Also, go DD2!.

And good luck to the rest of the Dakka Detachments(and really any Dakkites playing)! I'm rooting for ya(unless you're facing DD2, of course ;p ).

Edit: And if anyone doesn't want their Hordes Battlegroup in the swagbag, find Ozymandias or Lorek, they'll get them to a good home.

The Forge World offices have been depopulated, as we're travelling to exciting events around the world...

The Wardens were in the final judging for the best imperial theme. Placed 50 I think overall. Huge improvement over last year.

DD3 was down in the 70's (77?) and DD1 was 13th.

DD1, DD2, and DD4 (unofficial) kicked our butts! But it was awesome to come away with Best Hybrid Team for our theme/appearance, we really didn't expect it!

Here's some pics (I put these in DCM but figured everyone would want to see them) and a link to my gallery where I have more:

It is like magic. You tell him what it is you think you want. And then he takes that idea and gives you something that you couldn't even dream of and is totally what you really wanted!
