Rumors: The Rumor Section is gathered from the web and is not in any way information we receive from any manufacturer nor is it necessarily accurate. This section of the podcast is intended for entertainment purposes only.
- Some more awesome rumors floating around! The latest scuttlebutt over at BoLS is that the Emperor will in fact be destroyed to allow his consciouness to roam free in the warp to help humans an dpossibly reincarnate as a new Emperor. Guilliman may take the the throne with Cypher by his side and they will help guide the Imperium….pretty bad ass if true!
- More rumors of Cypher and who he could possibly be? Again on BoLS, they’re saying he could be Redloss, former commander of the Dreadwing, and honour guard to Lion El’Johnson.

List Review
Are the Faction/Regional rankings still being tweaked? I can’t access the Faction specific rankings at all on the site. I may be misunderstanding how Regional rankings are set up, but my score from the LVO RTT isn’t counted in my region tally, but it is on the overall score.
To the podcast, super excited for a loyalist Primarch to be back in the game. I’m wondering how they’ll take Cypher/Dark Angels. There was some stirring of potential allegiance shifts a few months back but who knows if there was any substance to them though.
Yup, still being tweaked a bit, we’re working on getting AoS rankings up and the event page in as well.
Always double check your user page to make sure the scores are applied to the correct user, not just a matching name. If you find your scores are distributed across different ‘users’ hit us up at itc@bestcoastpairings.com and we can get those scores consolidated.
As always be sure you use a consistent email as that is the basis our your account with us.
Thanks for answering the question, Casey.
The scores are showing up under mine for the overall. But I think I saw the answer on the Competitive 40K group. The Regional rankings are based off where the event is and not where the player is, correct?
I had just been under the impression that Regional rankings would be based on where the player was, not where the event was. Just sitting with scores in the South and West now haha
Regional scores are based off of where the event was played.
Got it *thumbs up* on the same page now. Thank you sir
New lore is crazy and exciting!
Some of the blurbs from White Dwarf sound incredible.
Yeah, I am PUMPED for this! Can’t wait to see what happens.
Sweet! I’m pumped you guys are getting into Konflict ’47!!!!
We have been really getting into it at my FLGS. I enjoy the game play, and the models are great for the most part.
Yeah, we’re all very excited to try it out!

Give this a read. It’s a really solid write up supporting the idea that OMEGON is actually Cypher.
Will do, thanks!
Remember when we had a really solid write-up supporting the fact the Visarch was Yriel? 😉
Man that’s really really good, I hope that’s what happens. Especially since I started an Alpha Legion force recently
Hey guys, I love listening to the show, and I can totally understand being busy and the pressure of everything that it takes to run the business, but I gotta say I miss some of the other features you guys you used to have. Talking 40k, or meta busting Mondays, or just having another 10-15 minutes of content.
Thanks for the feedback, and totally understand. We’ve just been struggling to keep up with everything lately.
Hi there
Just to follow up on my question, as far as i can understand there is currently some delay with manual ITC tournament result submissions.
Do i still send my excel sheet to contact@frontlinegaming.org or should i send it to best coast pairings ?
I know that we should “just use the app”, but our competitive scene is using tourneykeeper. So it would be nice if this would still be an option in the future.
Do best coast pairings recieve these kinds of questions, or is it still Frontline Gamings “table” ?
Reason i am askins is because my event from 11th feb have not been logged into ITC rankings, and currently there is a swede ranked number 1 for scandinavia, we really cant have that. I am sure you understand.
Thank you
Hey rasmus, yes the manual results are delayed in getting uploaded at present due to the BCP guys getting the software updated for the 2017 season. You can submit them to either us of them. The manual submission is still an option but it isn’t nearly as good as using the app for reasons you are seeing. But yes, it is an option.
