Good times. Still waiting to hear about Springfield, MO results. That's where our store went to.

Oh, you went to Metagames then? That's my "local" store (I live in Lebanon).

What'd you think of the store? I don't want to diss my own FLGS at all, but they really don't have the best tables do they? Felt terrain, lots of unpainted stuff, etc. Most of the armies there (including mine, sadly) are unpainted so I guess it makes sense that they don't put any more effort into them, but still.

My gaming group went, but I haven't heard any results yet. Our local FLGS shut down today because the owner went down with our winners. Just waiting to hear.

Guess I'll call them tomorrow.

I guess it's kind of a catch 22. Store doesn't put effort into its terrain so the players don't put effort into their armies and vice versa.

Really I should be painting right now, but...I'm not. This happens every weekend.

Dante and leadership test for losing combat - Dante is leadership 10. He was joined to 4 - 5 veteran assault Marines who were all killed, leaving him alone and reverting back to a lone independent character. There was a question - does the IC immediately revert back to a lone IC as soon as the squad he had joined is destroyed? I thought this was so. A player on the next table said he does not count as a lone IC until the next turn and the negative modifier for wounds taken for
the destroyed unit apply to his leadership. 4 - 5 veterans died and Dante also suffered a wound. So his effective leadership according to the player on the next table would have been at worst:

10 - 6 = 4

I rolled a three so it was a non issue.

Lol, good try though! Seriously, this question comes up everyone once in a while in YMDC and it is generally considered to be a "noob" type question. Just as multiple units all test at the same negative modifier for wounds suffered in assaults so would ANY attached IC. I'm surprised someone of your vast experience and post count on dakka was unfamiliar with this. Good luck in the next round!

You ain't kiddin'. Over two rounds, I must have had...12-15 glances and 5-8 pens on that @$%^#$^&ing fire prism, and couldn't do a damn thing. It's enough to give a guy an anyeurism, I tells ya...

Still made Chicago by one point (!), so I can't really complain.

I had to get some justice for my poor bikers.

Nice attempt at trolling though! =) I give you a 1/10 for effort; if you had tied it into the thread in any constructive way instead of just flame-bait, you would have gotten at least a two.

Haha I would care but I just gave myself 10/10. Also you didnt answer my question.

Actually he already answered you. If he win, he wins. If he loses, it's the opponent's fault, so it doesnt count. Sounds familiar doesnt it?

Nice flame-bait you've got there! If you had read my post, I *did* answer the question, which was that I was chalking up another loss since I conceded. Guess you're not really interested in content though, just trolling?

Can you girls take this outside?

He is not a girl, he is a troll

Doesnt food poisoning take like a week to set in?

Not necessarily. I know, oh I know...


I know that, down in Houston, one player was threatening another player. The threatening player ended up losing, so all was right in the world.

That person couldnt have been the troll. Don't forget he has got 74-1-1 record. It cant be him. Nothing you say shall convince me, nothing.

Should I be like GWAR! and sig this? lol


I had a great time at the semis and never played a bad opponent. My first didn't know the rules very well and insisted I show him each correction I told him, but I could so there weren't any issues really.

My group took 1st, 2nd, and 4th in the tourney of around 30 people.

BLADE AND BOLTER!!!!!!

I had a great time, with good opponents.

Only real rules question that came up was what happens to null zone when the librarian gets killed - does it terminate immediately, or does it persist until the end of the turn. We played that it persisted, after looking through our rulesbooks and talking to the store owner, who couldn't figure it out as well.

I had a great time at the Dayton Semis. Three great opponents with 3 well-fought games. My only regret is the 2 mistakes I made that cost me a shot at 3rd place.

After shooting off his mouth in this thread, I wonder if he could back it up.

Same with Dash of Pepper, since he is 74-1-1 and only plays for the money. He might have made it since he plays Orks and the top 2 finishers at his semis were ork players.

I was at the Media PA event, and Tony got kicked out for threatening another player.

Yeah, dude was a total Asshat and deserved to be kicked out. It was funny to see this inflated guy picking on anyone half his size. If he had a legitimate gripe it sure wasnt heard. He had to have Mall security kick him out. The things he said were grounds for charges of harrassment and other offenses. Telling people you are going to take them out in the parking lot is threatening. I really wish i wasnt so far away from that table when it happened i would have loved to have shut him up. Either way once someone the same size as him stepped up to him he backed down pretty quickly which was actually my friend i came down with.

The down side to this situation is that the guy he was playing and was threatended was awarded full game points (24). I understand there game did not get to finish but those 24 points hurt other players in contention and he did not earn them. if anything a massacre would have been fine (20) but giving up the bonus points too was a bit over the top.

Oh my it was hillarious. Did Tony wait in the parking lot to take out kids half his size like he so strongly said he would? He is so lucky he didnt because a bunch of us planned to jump his goofy ass and scream WAAAAGH when we did it. Not to mention get it on video and put it out here.

Ill MOD myself just a little but i was there and it needed to be made clear tha tthis person is not only goofy here he is a in real life to.

For the Semi's in Kitchener first place was a Dual Seer jetbike council with 69 points, that I fought first round. Sadly I didn't bring null zone and so I lost that first game and then went on too table my next two opponents and placed 6th. :(

Haha, but thats what I expected with a 45 kill point army. Lose the first round, win by slaughter in the next two. Not sure what the second and third placed armies were, but the second place guy was shocked/pissed he didn't get first with 68 points.

Check your PM

Orkish (or anyone else); if you're comfortable enough to belittle me on the forums because of your skill, I'd invite you to put your models on the table and game with me. If you can beat me in a game, I'll pay for your cost of travel + $100 (agreed upon in advance) provided that you are willing to take that same sum and contribute it to me should I win. =)

I'd always rather have a game than suffer through internet smack-talk, and what better way to humble me than an all-expense paid trip to do so?

Of course, if you're just being an internet tough guy....I understand.

All right all right enough of that talk, unless you bring a camera. Internet fueled smack down games that are fully batrepped with photos and accompanying pics of distraught loser (Mauleed faked weepy face...excellent!!!) are the stuff of Dakka legend.

Dash- Instead of wasting the money on getting one guy to play you you should end up saving it and go to one of the GT's next year and then you can get a few challenge games in on the day before the tournament. Kill two birds with one stone.

If you realized (which I dont think you do, until now), we didnt even have to do anything. You made a fool of yourself
Oh, and save that pathetic penny of yours. I ll pay for your air fare here, table you, and sent you back to your hometown with some GW gifts.

More Tau players need to come to this thread and join the smack-talk.

Alongside the Necron players.

Double post, please delete.

Me too, good time with good opponents!

I found a really strange rules issue in my first game with a Valkyrie. I fired a fire prism cannon at a Valkyrie on a board edge, it deviated onto the wing of the valkyrie fair neatly,... which was off the table edge (the entire valkyrie base was on though). What happens?

We called it a miss for being off table. Hmm, YMDC thread here I come.

please delete.

Someone somewhere needs to fill me in on all of this. =p 40k would be even more fun if braggarts and trolls were willing to put money where their mouth is. =p



*EDIT* And Orkish, you really should follow Rule #1. I've made you a friendly offer; there's no need to open your mouth and prove your intelligence to us.
