Okay guys and gals, here are the numbers so far for prepaid players on the Master List for the event:

45 for WHFB
35 for 40K

Payment after the 12th will be reverted to the original price of $90.00. The $80.00 fee was a special that was ran until the 12th of March.

Congratulations to Brad Nichols, who won the March 12th 40k Qualifier out of the Brothers Grimm!

**Dark Overlord**

I am still working on means to get there. The probability is high though I am not sure which Game system I will play. Most likely 40k Dark Angles...

**mastermoulder**

Hope you can make it Dark Overlord!

A couple of more prepaid....hope you can squeeze in.

No Eldar?

Greetings all!

Due to the planning of the Colonial logistically, I am implimenting a payment cutoff date of April 1st, 2011. After this date, if you still would like to attend the Colonial GT, please contact the Tournament Organizer about attending the event. We are currently at 104 reserved players!

Also ensure that if you are one of these players that you have turned in your army list.

See you at the Colonial GT!

**Dameon**

Was a ton of fun, Really great job guys!

**Kirika**

Thank you everyone involved I had a really fun time. With a big thank you going out to the Brother's Grim staff and Chris for making it all possible. Pictures and tournament report coming when I have time.

**Mannahnin**

Glad to hear this went off well. Can't wait for battle reports and AARs!

My name is Greg, I was the judge in the red shirt two sizes too big with the spiky hair.

Since we were never given a chance to address you all, I would like to give you all a huge thank you on behalf of Dave, Steve, Bill and myself. When our Fantasy players told us that The Colonial was mulling with the idea of hosting 40K, we jumped at the opportunity and did our best to convince Chris it was an excellent idea and to let folks who play or work at Brothers Grim run the games. Our Fantasy players always raved about the great times they had at the event, and as 40K players, we always felt left out. 40K was originally given 30 slots, which ballooned to 50 due to your wonderful response. As you could see with the amazing turnout we had, the 40K players contributed greatly to The Colonial's success. I sincerely hope you all enjoyed the event and everyone's company. In addition, I hope we met you expectations as the 40K judges.

The players should all be proud that almost everyone was someone's favorite opponent, and that speaks leagues to the great attitudes and players we had.

This was the first time folks from Brothers Grim ran a GT, and I want to thank you all again for being such an outstanding bunch.

I truly hope to see you all at The Grim Open http://www.brgrim.com/?page_id=1421 on June 18th which we will be running again.

Cheers,
Greg

**Tironum**

Well done guys!

It was a great weekend.

**WarsawTom**

was wondering when the 40K results will be posted.

**Leenus**

Thanks to all of those that participated in the Wargaming for a Cause charity dice program to help the Lone Survivor Foundation! Your contributions were greatly appreciated!

May you roll mostly 6's (except for break checks ;p)!

**DevianID**

Had a blast at the event in 40k, will be back!

**gorgon**

Had a really good time this weekend. Came out ahead in 3 of my games, but took big losses in the other two. Definitely still learning how to run my reserve Tyranids, and the army could use a couple tweaks. Finished just in the top half, but picked up a 3rd Best Painted.

Thanks to Chris for organizing the event, to the Brothers Grim gang for running the 40K side, and to all my opponents for some great games.

**elfmagic**

I had a great time and all my oppenents were true gentlemen and very good players that taught me something in each game. While I managed to go undefeated, I also managed to not win any primaries either, with 5 draws. Thanks to Sean, Bob, Tom, Rich, and Casey for the great games. See you at Grimm.

The tourney was smooth and the venue was outstanding, kudos to the organizers.

Congratulations to all the winners.

Could you please add which army each player played if it is not too much trouble?

**WarsawTom**

Had a lot of fun! All my games were pretty tough battles. Had to really concentrate on what I was doing. I am surprised I did as well as I did with only getting 4 1/2 hours of sleep both nights! lol!....everyone I played was great!

8th place Flesh Tearers!!! woo hoo!!!

Thanks Ned! Come by the Only Game in Town in Somerville sometime, I'm down for some more Blood on Blood action!

**SonsofVulkan**

Anybody know the army lists for the top 10 players?
If not how about the top 3 and the best general guy.

**XV25**

I'd also be interested in seeing the army break down, if it's not too much trouble. Sounds like it was a great event!
