NOVA quick recap.

I am going to expand on this in later posts, but I wanted to quickly recap how I did at NOVA.

On Thursday, I was crushed by Andrew Sutton in my Whiskey Challenge.
On Saturday I went 4-0, putting me into the top 16 bracket for Sunday.
I was the only 4-0 Imperial Guard player.
On Sunday I went 2-2.

So I finished as a Tournament Ace (which I got a cool medal for) and ended the tournament at 6-2.
My losses were to Tony Kopach (in Round 6) and Brad Townsend (aka Hulksmash) in Round 7.

Mission: Defeat Stelek.

I was lucky enough to be paired against the mighty Stelek (http://www.yesthetruthhurts.com/)

The masses have demanded that Stelek fall by Footdar.
If I do indeed desire to bring the Footdar (which I have yet to decide) then this is what will be gracing the table.

On paper, and on the table, this list frightens absolutely no one. I, on the other hand, have shredded a lot of people with this list. It does have its weaknesses and is not on the high end of the power scale. This list is not forgiving of mistakes.

In any case, I will be happy to discuss the list if anyone desires to hear about how it works.

Welcome Trolls!

I am slated to play Stelek in the Whiskey Challenge at NOVA this year.
Please, unleash your trolling here.
