THE BEST EVENT OF THE YEAR... period.





Asurman Kills for four games in Close Combat: SOLO'd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
X6 Deamons
X5 Terminators
X10 Genestealers
X10 Genestealers
Wounded a Hive tyrant
X10 Grey Knights (it was only 8.. but felt like 10!!!) edited
X1 Grand Master
X5 Grey Knight Terminators




Destroyed/immobilized by TURN 2 four times in a row!



















Personally gave up his points in order to lose 10 points for his team. Never trust a model with a Guitar Shaped Controller.





Warp Spiders were incredible. Terminators had no chance!

Simply cool army. Thanks for your team pics.

No earth shattering, thought provoking quote. I'm just someone who was introduced to 40K in the late 80's and it's become a lifelong hobby.

Westerville, OH

There were only 8 grey knights, not 10

Team Spite was an absolute blast to play, even though they destroyed us utterly in the last round. I truly enjoyed the game--but not Asurman.

... sorry... he quit counting when he got the Grand Master in his sites!

My dear lord. That gate is AWESOME.

And congrats on your great-looking Eldar forces. Way to bring the PLs!

Infinity: Way, way better than 40K and more affordable to boot!

Nice armies.

Who built the shrine? I've seen it in a couple of of pic reports of adepticon but noone has explained who built it.

Team “Glance in your Pants” designed it (formerly team 2 Oblit 2 Quit). Greg “Inquisitor_Malice” Sparks, Mike, Pete and Brad.

Yep - we built the shrine. If anyone has any questions about the shrine, let me know. I would have commented earlier, but pure exhaustion from this weekend pretty much crippled me for the day.

Side note - the guy that painted the spear is at the web address below. If someone is ever interested in getting some work done - he likes side projects like this:

Somewhere in south-central England.

Great paint job on the Eldar, especially the tanks.

I love the Tau Piranha build. Someone had the balls to put the maximum possible 15 into a list!

We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.

What I couldn't figure out is how they lost enough games to be stuck playing us the last round. I think that I need to do like Chris Borer and add some spirit stones to those Grey Hunters, and maybe that Guitar Hero's skull too! And the Blood Claw biker with the flamer needs a spirit stone and a harlie slung over the fender like a barbequed pig!

Team Spite was a great bunch of guys and I'd happily play them again. In Fifth Edition. And when I bring a gun with a range longer than 24 inches.

In the dark future, there are skulls for everyone. But only the bad guys get spikes. And rivets for all, apparently welding was lost in the Dark Age of Technology. -from C.Borer

Spirit stones are so busted it aint funny... sorry you had to face them and all their brokeness.

Seriously though, I really felt sorry for that grandmaster... Asurman was hopped up on Mountain Dew!

I have been telling all my friends about all my harlies being burned alive!

If Team Spite and Craftworld IV: Neil needs a Drink (who we also played in the opening round last year) hadn't been so enjoyable to play, I'd again be bemoaning how GW can't build balanced armies and how much I hate Eldar. But I'll still complain about how unbalanced Ass-ur-man is. I'd accuse you of playing cheesy armies, but the way the Guitar Hero Mags went down prevents me from doing so!

It's funny to come back and realize how many people from the board you actually bumped into or saw at Adepticon. It was a great time, well worth the travel!

I was so jealous of the phoenix lord themed team. Great idea!

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die.
