Yes, I believe Aaron just won.

TK - Lafayette - (45 minutes north of the Indy Open) in about 4 weeks. Aaron, myself, and a number of good players will be there.

I believe I heard this over the mic:

Table 1:
2 Roberts, Josh 40 96 232 1 3 4 QUALIFIED - NEC/CSM
vs
6 Nanavati, Nick 40 68 218 1 0 3 QUALIFIED - NEC/GK

Table 2:
4 Aleong, Aaron 40 82 216 2 1 3 QUALIFIED - NEC/CSM
vs
16 Kopach, Tony 35 66 192 4 1 3 QUALIFIED - SM/IG

Relic is mission. My prediction of Necron + ally, Necron + ally, and GK + ally for top 3 is still alive. LMAO!

Will have to see. Might be saving my leave days for the Nova.

yeah, TK predicted that ish quite well.

Too bad the Nid player lost, I think he matches up well vs lots of these Cron/CSM lists.

We both had pretty good picks for top 3. I guessed GK/something, Something/IG, and necrons.

Edit:my prediction from here is Nanavati VS Kopach in the finals.

Remember the mission is relic. I think Aaron has it with his 30+ blob of cultist lead by lord + a 13AV ride with Jink that can turbo with the relic in the shooting phase for a 4+ I think. Yes confirmed... No restriction on turboing in the shooting phase as long as he doesnt move more then 6". If the relic gets on that ride then that obj is going to be hard for Kopach to claim.

30man cultist vs 50 man guardsman, I agree will be tough as hell, but tony also has 3 thunderfires that are going to pound th GAK out of that cultist blob.

Nanavati takes it with the paladin block. These missions are so weights toward paladins it's crazy, I got to play them a bunch the last week.

There's two Primary missions, the Relic and Objectives (4), and to get a crushing victory you just have to win on the Primary for 10 battle points. If you tie on primary but win on secondary it's a minor victory for 6 points, draw is 5, etc etc. It will be a tough game for sure, though.

I cant really tell was he able to secure the relic or is it still in the middle?

I believe the Relic is being carried by the Ghost Ark currently. Tony's white blob outflanked on the Arks side and he still has two talons and (2) 5 man tactical marine squad to outflank. The Choas lord went down obviously.

EDIT: I'll clarify, the unit inside the Ghost Ark has the relic.

That can be a real pain in the arse. Not sure if Aaron knows he can turbo around for a 4+ save and get the relic out of harms way.

I think they're all more worried about the other objectives now. I believe (please don't quote me on it!) if Tony ties and wins on secondary (first blood, linebreaker, and slay the warlord) then he moves onto the final. Tough game for both, though.

Roger, if the relic is in the ghost arc then Tony is behind. We will see if he can pull it out.

Yeah, I believe Tony controls most of the objects at the moment (we all know how that can change, though) and Tony has first blood so it'll be a nitty, gritty game.

Does it work that if you hold primary you auto win?

There are two primary objectives, and if you have just one you auto win. But, say for example, Aaron holds the Relic and Tony has objectives, then it'll go to secondary objectives and whoever wins that will go onto the next round. So Tony can get the objectives and not care about the Relic and still pull it off with secondary objective wins, which are the traditional ones.

Where does aaron/tony's game stand right now?

Who won I had to head out for dinner with the wife.

Tony won ... Repeat of NOVA 2012 final ... Nick Nanavati vs Tony Kopach.

Both final four games went down to vp tiebreaker.

Edit:ninja'd should be a fun game, now my prediction is Nanavati takes the rematch. Thunderstorm gets calmed by the masters of warp and science.

Wompwomp now ustream won't work at all for me. How goes the game?

How did nicks flyer move backwards?

Anyone got an update?

Looks like Nick N won it. Don't have any details though.

A well-deserved win to Nick! Great game, went down to the wire and ended on turn 6!

Details are details and they both played a great game. Couldn't be happier! If the game went to turn 7 it could have been anybody's. nick got first blood and Tony moved off an objective at the last second, giving it to Nick's paladin squad.

Other than that, they tied 7-7 on VP and the deployment was Dawn of War with the primary being VP and Objectives. Both had linebreaker and neither had slay the warlord.
