Just an FYI, you'll have to decide which mission elites score in. It's not in the brb. We made that one up for CAG tournies.

The core missions don't support elites as scoring, just like HQ.

Edge, looks pretty cool.  I don't think I can attend this one, but let everyone know how it goes.  If it goes well, how often do you plan on doing it?

Plan is the first Saturday of every month.

Edge, check your PM's.

Things are changing in my favor. Making plans to attend

Had fun,
Thanks again Edge.
Thanks Dewen and 'Monger for some fun games no matter the results.
I'll give batrep synopsis when I get more than 5 minutes of breathing room.

Good times. Thanks to Edge for TO/hosting and exposing me to the Hobby Shop.

Interesting thing to note: All my opponents were great sportsmen and fielded fully painted armies that were nicely done. Fun tournament to participate in.

 for fully painted armies!

Good times. 6 showed, 2 called off at the 11th hour. Maybe more next time.

Results:
Keith Cooley Nids Best Overall (includes Best Painted due to pool size)
Dave Ewen Iron Hands Best General (if he was fully painted he would have had Best Overall)
Adam Brill Tau/Farsight 3rd
Floyd Taylor Space Wolves 4th
Mike West Deathwing Best Sportsman 5th
Eric Miller IG 6th

Feedback received and considerations are in the works.
Next one will be posted soon.

I am glad to hear that everyone had a good time. I am excited to get some games in soon. Hopefully I will be available for the next one!

Josh it would be good to see you at the gaming tables again   

And then?

Is the next one set up yet? I noticed even old man Mike made the last one!

BITE ME!
I think Eric has one next month at the bookery, and the hobby shop in June

Yeah josh we got Mike out of his wheelchair to come play.
Next one is Bookery 5/24 and Hobby shop in late June.

Will the one at the Bookery on 5/24 have the same format?

Tentatively similar

I guess the bookery tourney will be the end of 6th and the Hobby shop usher in 7th.
