Yay, the rest of the primer scenarios!

While Centurian99 is too modest to mention it, he's also running the Battlefleet Gothic tournament on Sunday.

So if, like me, after 2 days of tournament you find yourself weary of the never-ending struggles of the skirmishing individuals, and want to engage in decisive conflict with kilometer-long missiles hurled across the vastness of space, you should sign up for that.
