I'll be taking pictures too, only thing I haven't figured out, is how am I going take pictures of the champion(me)?

See y'all there, I'm bringing my A game!

Hey, if anyone has an extra squad of axegrinders they don't use..please bring them! We really need one more set! Will pay $20 or possibly trade a repaint (if you could throw in a set of Greenscales as well). I know this is late notice but we didn't think to ask about in person trades at the tourney

Can't wait to meet everyone and play some games today!

[Kinseth]

Congrats to bonegnashers son on the win. It came down to one stinger vs one divider(cleon). Close as it gets.

Big thanks to the Sweeneys for running the event. They run a great event! Had a blast! Will write more later

[Taeblewalker]

Fun time today, folks.

[bonegnasher]

Awesome time, everyone was really nice, we were really glad we made it out there, too bad my son was my only loss (I am grounding him for the next five years). Big thanks to the Sweeneys, especially, Joe, for setting it all up, and being a real class act. Was nice to meet a bunch of people I've only seen on these forums. Extra props to Nick Sweeney, awesome kid with a really great attitude!

[The CEE]

BMW and I had every bit as much fun as we had hoped to! Thanks for putting on such an expertly run tourney Joseph! Everyone I played with/talked to was extraordinarily friendly.

I wanted to check and see if you were planning on starting a closing thread. If so, I'll wait to post my pictures and battle reports there.

Thanks for running this! We had a blast, although we misjudged the competitiveness of the armies. Seriously, everyone but my dad, my friend, and I had one or multiple of the following: Q9, Q10, dragon, and Hydra.

My dad, Dragon Ruler, played 3x Granite Guardians, Raelin, Warden 816, Guilty, and Isamu. He went 1-4.

My friend, houndsrule, played 3x Warforged, Heirloom, and 2x Hounds. He went 2-3.

I played 3x Gorillas, Nakita Agents, and Agent Skahen. I went 0-5, although I could have easily gone 3-2.

Making a post thread sounds like a good idea, I think I'll do that....

...and CEE, it was really cool meeting you guys as well! It's fun to meet the faces behind the avatars.

Nobody was stopping you from bringing Q9, Q10, Hydra, or dragons....

Really cool meeting you Orcy!

[Dankarabinhatesyou]

Good times had by all. Next time ill remember my own units abilities and potentially go 3-2 instead of 2-3 or higher!

[marrowick]

Thank you everyone for coming it made it worth the 3 and a half hour drive! Thanks to the Sweeneys for hosting this.

Very cool. I've already started writing my battle reports while the details are still fresh in my memory.

And if you have them on record, I'd love to see the armies and standings from yesterday's games posted in the closing thread!
