Saturday Showdown Results.


So I attended the event and ..... Wow it was awesome. Man it is great to play in a tourney that has so many people on the same system (18 players)

The results were:
Placed Name / Faction W CP
1 Ronald Grobler | Legion of Everblight 4 8
2 Kelvin Jones | Cygnar 3 6
3 Marco Van Zyl | Skorne 3 4
4 PJ Jacobs | Circle Orboros 3 4
5 Chad Parsons | Legion of Everblight 3 3
6 Jonathan Kenyon | Legion of Everblight 3 0
7 JP Du Toit | Circle Orboros 2 5
8 Eli Golovey | Cryx 2 5
9 Hannes Wiese | Khador 2 4
10 Sean Martens | Protectorate of Menoth 2 3
11 Fabio Costa | Cygnar 2 1
12 Robert Martens | Khador 2 1
13 Evan Hurwitz | Legion of Everblight 1 4
14 Stephen MacLennan | Retribution of Scyrah 1 3
15 Mike Gao | Trollbloods 1 2
16 Warren Kristiansen | Legion of Everblight 1 1
17 Jason Rothman | Protectorate of Menoth 1 0
18 Roscoe Sprong | Trollbloods 0 1



As you can see there were more Hordes players than WM. Really weird as I thought there were more WM players in the area. I was a bit sad to see that no members of a club in the West of Johannesburg decided to come, seen as though there are 10+ players in their group.

I was talking to some of the new players and they are really enjoying the game but seem to believe that Legion of Everblight is the "WHFB Daemons" of Warmahordes. I don't really find them to be that over powered as what everyone says but I suppose with 1/2 the hordes players being LoE players and 4/5 lists having a Angelius, Carnie, Typhon and Seraph that sould say something about those 4 warbeasts. Sad seen as thought there were two Cygnar players, playing Kraye, we still had completely different builds.

Other than the 5 LoE players there was a nice mix of factions and all except the merc's were present. I had a fun time playing Kraye, I took a pNemo list as well, and really like his hit and run style of play.

I will post in the week about my games, hopefully tomorrow before I forget to much :P .

Until next time...

Pendrake....


A friend of mine wants to use Pendrake in his Troll lists for this Saturday and Icon, so he asked if he could use mine. I said no problem but he will have to paint him up as I don't have the time to do it myself.

Lucky Varsity students have stacks of time on their hands so he finished him in a day.

As for Saturday...Man am I excited we will have 18+ players, This is the biggest event since WM started in South Africa. I would like to say a special thanks to GW for driving their loyal fans away.

The PDF's today confirmed that they really don't give a damn about balance....If only someone would buy my Tomb Kings from me.

Nemo and the local pet.

Thought I would put up a picture of pNemo and the Squire. Finished them a while ago but never got around to taking photo's.

We will be playing our last bit of games tonight before Saturday Show Down (A local event). There will be 14+ players which is the biggest event since Warmahordes has taken off in South Africa and it will count towards National Rankings. I am really looking forward to it. I just hope that I don't make silly mistakes like I did at Warcon. (Forgot to assign focus with Nemo on a critical turn)

I will be taking Kraye and pNemo. I have been working on a Kraye list for a while now and I want to play as much as I can before ICON.

I will make sure the camera is charged and get some photo's for the blog.
