K-Con 2012 - Game 2

On to game 2, having (barely) beaten Jan in my first game I was up against Barry Hickey and his Space Wolves in a Dawn of War/Annihilation game.

K-Con 2012 - Game 1

So as some of you will know I went to a tournament yesterday in Dublin. A one day, 5 battle, 1000 point, highlander format, tournament to be precise.

My first battle was against the current best player in Ireland - Jan Karnowski, and his Orks.

Now I would just like to preface this, and the other battle reports I'll be writing shortly, by saying that I forgot to take notes or photos, and when I did get back home late last night I went out on the town for a 'few' drinks. So please excuse any errors.

Forge World Updates!

So I've got my stuff packed for tomorrow's trip to Dublin for K-Con, double checked and triple checked that I've got everything, so I can be reasonably sure I've forgotten something obvious.

I decided to check my e-mails and got the Forge World newsletter and saw that they have produced an update for the D-99 list in IA 4. A very characterful list that was however showing its age.

So having decided upon a list and built the units I'll need I now have a little under 2 weeks to get everything painted to at least a three colour minimum to take part in K-Con.

Now this is the part where things get interesting. I could paint the models to a quick 3 colour minimum and get in some practice games or I could go to town on the models and do a really good job and no doubt get my arse handed to me by all and sundry. Guess which I've picked...

K-Con 1000pt Highlander list - Part 2

Well I've managed to get my ticket for K-Con, put in my army list, and have it rejected, (Apparently I cannot have Sammael in a Land Speeder and have a Land Speeder in the Attack Squadron. This kinda, ever so slightly, ruins my plans.)

Back to the drawing board...

Assuming I get tickets (which will be available tomorrow) I'll be heading down to Dublin for a tournament on the 11th of February. Its a 1000 point, 5 game tournament played on 4'x4' tables with one slight difference - no unit may be duplicated.
