Benmannens Dark Eldaräventyr på GothCon 2011
Benmannens Dark Eldaräventyr på GothCon 2011
Jag postade det här nyss på 40k Online och deras moderatorer raderade den snabbare än smält smör. De gillar inte externa länkar, vilket är väldigt trist inställning om ni frågar mig...
Ivarjefall, jag postar om det här under. Hoppas ni vill låta den ligga kvar. På botten finns en länk till min blogg. Så ni som inte fick plats på turneringen eller inte kunde komma till Göteborg i helgen, se fram emot lite mysläsning:
-------------------------------------------------
Howdy howdy (22nd-24th) is GothCon 40k weekend in Gothenburg on the Swedish west coast.
The very depressing 8th ed of Warhammer made me switch over to beer-and-chips-40k. I tried and tried 8th but it just lost too much of the good old Warhammer for me... And it did for a lot of friends of mine, a whole bunch of us decided to go to a 40k tournament and be noobs for a change!
And there was one tournament coming up that I really wanted to go to and it was GothCon 2011. The first 100 tickets were realeased a weeknight at 6pm and sold out in 2 minutes... They managed to find room for some more so I think there are 125 players at the moment.
I used to play a lot of WFB tournaments so this is going to be a lot of fun. It's quite a different crowd so it will be mostly new faces and some armies I have never played against for a change.
My biggest 40k army is my Dark Eldar kabal. I've got around 8000p painted and took this opportunity to update some unit choices to the new books standards. So yes, I had to paint a little bit. Tuned up my displayboard. Made craters and smoke for all vehicles. So I had a little bit to fiddle with, I actually made a new Talos too... You can see it here:

I will iPhone-blog during the tournament and try to take a lot of pictures...
The list is a Dark Eldar force with a little bit of everything. I got 14 Lances in it, no Archon, only 2 Agonizers, decent amount of Troops, worthless Hellions, a BIG Talos and lots of speed. Topped wit a single Webway Portal.
It's built to get a pretty good comp score, they use a subjective comp scoring which has a few restrictions but it held secret until the tournament starts. I seem to get an average comp score... But we'll see tomorrow.
Here's the list:
Baron Sathonyx
Haemonculus
Venom Blade, Liquifier Gun & Webway Portal
8 Wyches, Hekatrix w Agonizer
Raider w Flickerfield
7 Wyches, Hekatrix w Agonizer
Raider w Flickerfield
6 Warriors
Blaster
Raider w Flickerfield
5 Warriors
Blaster
Venom w extra Splinter cannon
6 Hellions
Helliarch w Venom Blade
4 Kabalite Trueborn
4 Blasters
Venom w extra Splinter cannon
2 Beastmasters
5 Khymerae
1 Razorwing Flock
2 Beastmasters
5 Khymerae
1 Razorwing Flock
2 Beastmasters
5 Khymerae
1 Razorwing Flock
Ravager w Flickerfield
Ravager w Flickerfield
Talos w Chainflails & Twinlinked Heatlance
Army total: 1750
The list has been doing well. I am not that great at 40k but I know the Dark Eldar pretty well, I got a 9 win & 1 loss result during practice games. Which will be hard to repeat during the tournament, I still feel like I don't know the rules good enough... But the plan is to, in competition with 125 participants, be in the top 25.
Anyway, check in here during the Easter weekend, I will update it as often as possible:

Åh, najs för en annan stackare som sitter hemma och käkar ägg en sån här helg. Jag ser mycket fram emot nyheter, Stefan!
Scatter dice always point to me, which counts as a hit. I've never needed to re-roll to hit or wound. I can preemptively steal my own initiative. My army lists have won Pulitzers. Final note, I'm awesome. -Jon "The Man" Willingham

Re: Benmannens Dark Eldaräventyr på GothCon 2011
Tror det var tre DE i topp16.

Fanken, jag har försökt posta resultat och lite tankar men Appen som ska sköta det har inte funkat... Jag ska försöka posta upp det lilla jag skrev snarast.
Det gick hyfsat för att vara min första stora 40k turnering någonsin, och jag körde med en hyfsat högkompande lista. Jag kompade 12 och snitt verkade ha varit strax under 9.
Japp, jag tror det var 3 Dark Eldar i topp 16. Vi kompades nog kanske alla lite för högt.
Rolig fakta:
73% av armeerna på GothCon var olika typer av Space Marinearmeer! Tydligen var det bara 3 Tyranidarmeer och 4-5 Dark Eldar, det var för övrigt en klassisk båt Dark Eldarlista som kom 2a.
