I’ve been on a roll lately. Did well at LVO, won our local league only playing 3 out of 4 games, and have been winning a lot overall. It feels good to win, heck it feels great, but any winning streak will eventually come to an end. For me, it came fast and hard and…
Intro The tournament season can be an adventurous one, full of ups and downs. For those uninitiated to a tournament season, it can be a downer for sure. I know for me, at the beginning of the ITC season, I didn’t do too well. It took some time, practice, help from others, and a good…
The Decurion Detachment is a very interesting creation by Games Workshop in the newest Necron’s Codex. I have been playing it for months since the book came out and have played against it in tournaments like the LVO.

The Great Path This past year was a great tournament season for me. I, like many others, dabbled mostly in my local scene playing one day 3 round events and only traveled to other events rarely. Along the way I got the bug to travel more and began making friends with players on the tournament…
The Case For Overall In recent years, I’ve seen a decline in major tournaments when it comes to a best Overall prize which includes a combining of Sportsmanship, Painting, and General scores. At one time, Best Overall was the top prize, but somewhere along the way it was pushed aside for Best General being the…
Ah, Vegas. Now home of one of if not the largest 40k tournaments in the country. How did little ol’ me get into the top 8, vying for the finals? A lot of luck, practice, some skill, and the willingness to see it till the end. Let’s take a look at my road to the…
The award ceremony was packed with prizes, smiles, and applause for the individuals in the LVO 40k Championships and for the year long Independent Tournament Circuit (ITC). Take a look at the winners for both events. [nggallery id=6]
