Did you play anyone as strong as Russia this early though, two years back?
Can you have a word with the England lads about taking a leaf out of ze German's book in terms of coverage too!?
Yeah its Alex 
Erm, not till round 3 I believe, but I cannot remember. Last year we started against Spain (whom ended 3rd I believe) and didn't go too well lol. Our lists were used to utilising BLOS terrain which there was literally none, this year it is much better!
Yeah I think the German coverage is awesome. Problem is we would need someone to fund themselves to do that as the coach would be too busy inspecting other teams to see what they put forward etc, and informing us on updates. Would deffo be a good idea for next year.
Im hoping to make it next year, more so with the new wolf book. 5 Blood claws in a Stormwolf for 295pts, yes please

Fortunately, it probably won't be a big deal, as even excluding that game completely (which ended with a 17-3 win for the Norwegian player), Norway still will have more than enough points for a match win.

Top 6 tables
Poland v. Italy (top table)
England v. Belarus
Ukraine v. Spain
Germany v. France
USA v. Denmark
Norway v. Serbia
Looks like USA-Russia in round 3 originally ended with a draw, but the US got the win after heavy penalties on Russia.

Just talked to Andrew Gonyo on face book. He says they are actually in good shape. I'm looking at the standings... With two more blowout games and Luck with the other teams drawing... they could take it still.

Yeah, unfortunately they just dominated against Denmark
But the US have it in their own control now, like most of the teams with 6 points - however the US has the biggest point differential so are actually quite nicely placed to take it all.
If they win both their next games big enough they will win it all: first they have to beat Italy big enough to face the winner of poland-England, and if they beat the winner of that match with enough difference in score they will take it all due to tie breaker with a lot of teams at 10 points.
So if they keep up the good pace at least we Danes can say we got beat by the best!

I see Jan brought his Ork horde again. Faced him and Alan M last year at tourneys with my Serpent Spam. Decent lists.
J Cooks army looks very scary imho.
No entry from the Republic this year, strange.

AFAIK the 40K scene in the Republic sorta collapsed in recent years. A lot of the guys that used to play competitively switched to Flames of War instead.
Though my old club was primarily Dublin based, not sure what's happening with the Cork lads, who had a strong competitive scene too.

US have a good chance at winning over Italy.
Germany will likely win over Spain.
Poland vs England will be close, but one team will win (eg not draw).
As US has a much higher difference than Germany it will likely be US that meets the winner of Poland/England and if US wins it will be decided on point difference (I think) as several teams will be on 10 points.

England lost to Poland
US lost to Italy.
Germany won over Spain.
Last round:
- Poland vs Wales
- Italy vs Germany
- US vs Belarus
- England vs France
Poland will win gold with a draw. If Poland losses and Germany wins - Germany likely gets the gold due to bigger difference

Poland also won the Flames of War tournament and came 2nd in Fantasy, beaten only on tie breaker (I think). Damn... The Polish people know how to play wargames congrats to them
