LVO Game 5: Jy2's Tyranids

Warning there are 8 Flyrants in this battle report!

LVO Game 4: Orks and Necrons... with Demons?

Bright and early 10am Vegas time for day 2.  Which means my body thinks its 1pm haha, thats when you start a GT.  So after my loss at the end of day 1 I am anxious to start day two knowing I need to score points.  Im still very hopeful for making the top 8, my lone loss still netted me some solid points and my wins so far have been large.

LVO Game 3: Nick and his Scouts

Game 3 I ended up against a buddy of mine Nick Rose.  We had been joking before and during the event how awesome it would be for our funny lists to make it to the finals together.  So we were a little bummed to be playing round 3 instead.  Nick was running a sentinels of Terra CAD with Flesh Tearers special detachment.  Lysander, Mephiston, Librarian, Command squad with melta in pod, 3 Centurians with grav in pod, 10 scouts in pod, 28 outflanking scouts.  

We played Relic.  Hammer and anvil deployment.

LVO Game 2: TSHFT Eldar/Tau

So after a rather rushed lunch period we are back at it for round 2.  I get to the table and there are several armies there... so wait around and another army shows up too and it looks a bit familiar.  I think Ive seen pictures of that recently.  Yep is Sean(Abusepuppy) and his TSHFT winning firepower army of doom.  Well at least it wasnt the two 4 Imperialknight armies that were sitting there... mission two is kill points.

At least we both have lots.

LVO Game 1: Eldar and Dark Eldar

My first opponent at the LVO was John and his Eldar/Dark Eldar.  Nice tough list to start off the day... not what you are looking for haha.  I usually like a nice soft matchup round one to get the jitters out and wake up... not to be instead I get an eldar list that many people claimed I couldnt beat after 11th company.

Time to get to work.

Las Vegas Open 2015

So in case you havent heard the Las Vegas Open happened two weeks ago.  It was a great event in a great location.  The hall was enormous and it was exciting to see so many players in the 40k championships.  If you hadnt heard already I also won the main event.  After 9 rounds I went a healthy 8-1, losing in the qualifying rounds but avenging that loss to the same opponent in the finals.
