Just missed out on a Liber Necris Collector's edition- I was the last runner up. There's some interesting stuff there. Here was my entry...
Max sighed in relief after he cut down the last of the Pox Cult. "Nothing to it," he thought.
The witch hunter stifled a cough.

"Never let them take you alive" screamed a guardsmen, as the Dark Eldar swept over the garrison.
"Not a problem" muttered a plasma gunner, ruefully.
Oops, wrong game, but I wanted to take a stab anyway!
Here's a WHFB one

All in all, fact is that Warhammer 40K has never been as balanced as it is now, and codex releases have never been as interesting as they are now (new units and vehicles and tons of new special rules/strategies each release -- not just the same old crap with a few changes in statlines and points costs).

Unlucky. Yours was a lot better, but unfortunately you forgot to use Gotrek!1! in your story.
I was going to enter, but I didn't consider any of my efforts up to scratch (though a lot of them were better than the winner, which is isn't funny or clever).

40kenthusiast, that 40k one's great.
I do appreciate the kudos, all.
