Hello All, I've just finished playing in my first tournament and managed a podium finish!

I've written up a tournament report for anyone who is interested.

http://littlewaaagh.blogspot.co.nz/2013/01/arch-enemy-2013-tournament-report.html

Cheers and I hope you enjoy.

Congrats on the podium placing!

Thanks for the Tournament review/Bat reps, even though they werent the usual (high) standard i see on the Little Waaagh! blog, i can completely understand as there isnt much time in a tournament setting (which you noticed yourself, imagine if you were taking pictures.....)

I agree on the scenarios, they seemed modified in a very screwed kind of way, which seemed crippling to some armies and mightily in favour of others (i wont name names...).

Nice placing. Thanks for linking your report. I noticed you decided to go from 2 Level 4s to a Level 2 and a Level 1. Can you discuss that a bit more? What do you intend to buy instead?

I know you were hoping for Foot *and* Hand of Gork. Are you prepared to not have those even more often?

@ Revenant- Cheers, I did intend to make full battle reports but realised in Turn 2 of the first game that it was taking up too much time to take photos and notes.

@ Red Zeke - I meant scrapping the L4 Night Goblin for a L2 and a L1 NG shaman. I need the L4 Savage Orc Shaman for leadership as well as Hand and Foot.

Yeah, pretty good showing! Sneaky indeed. :-)

No problem, thanks for sharing! Dont worry about not getting full Bat Reps out from your first Tourney, as i said, timing is everything and when you are struggling for time already then i think we can understand the Bat Reps sliding....

Ahhh i was confused about the missing Wizards as well, but that makes more sense with leaving one Level 4...

Ah! That makes a lot of sense then. Good call!

Looks like some great games! With such a horde army, it does sound like you'll need to practice like crazy and be able to play really fast to finish your games and get full points at a tournament. I look forward to hearing about further games and successes
