I went to my first tournament with the deathskulls on Sat September 25th, it was a Rogue Trader put on by Dan Corbett (www.thechaptermastersadvisor.com) and hosted at Comic Shop Plus (www.comicshopplus.com). It was the first in a series of tournaments Dan and the CSP will be holding to determine an overall top 16 invite by points tournament. I feel real good about how I did, I feel like I gave some points away in game 2, but as it is with new armies and tactics.
Game one I played a gentelman named Chris Haynes playing sisters of battle. Man I looked across at 3 exsorsists and Man I was shaking. fortuneatly I got first turn and gave him very little time to get any shots off, HTH is what orksies do best. The game went in my favor for my first win of the day. Massacure
Game two I played Dave Semons with his tyranids of doom, man it was rough. His termagant making machines were on like wildfire and I had to mow through them all game, and because Dave is a good tactician he just made more and more of them to put in my way. I lost unfortuneatly not by much, but as they say a loss is a loss. Minor loss.
Game 3 I played a guy playing Blood Angel mech. He didnt realize that opened toped vehicles allowed their cargo to disembark from anywhere around the vehicle and he left his stuff a little close and bam win for me. Major win.
So all in all 2 wins and a loss not bad I guess, I will have to work on my tactics for next time.
