paladin for a 3 point nurgling base... hooray....
basically, this mission is a huge middle finger to GK, deathwing, loganwing, etc. GW is taking blind justice to a whole new level apparently....

It's not just them, it could be something like an Ork boy for an SM, a Nid Warrior for a Guardsman, An Eldar Pathfinder for a Nurgling base, etc etc etc.

This shit's even more stupid if it's before deployment of your troops, especially if you're running minimum squads or something.

I know I'm tweaking my list just to accommodate the first mission, and that's Games Workshop's likely defense. "We told you ahead of time!" Well, kinda told us, in a vague way.

Sam has his work cut out for him, making sure everyone understands these rules.

Wargear is going to be a pain to understand also cause it seems like they aren't going to have any weapons and such. This guy becomes the traitor ignore all special rules and wargear. This is gonna butcher what some people going to have to give up I mean a Bike List gets rid of a Bike which by all means shouldnt fit in a transport but will because he doesnt technically have that bike anymore.
I ride in on my Bike with my Hat of awesome and say Nay this place should be on fire.

Tyranid Warrior in a rhino with some space marines for the win

I'm looking forward to my Traitor daemon chillin' with some Grey Knights. Because they'd totally suffer his existence.  ::)

This made me smile all day today.

Thanks to the BG staff for running the event. There will be tales to be told. It wasn't a bad day at all, just... well, everyone's still looking for the right word. Still, always grateful for the chance to meet new people and play.

I'd like to apologize to Willem and the rest of the field for ditching out on the last game. A family issue arose, and it required immediate attention. If anyone feels that it materially impacted their placing, let me know and I'll make it up somehow.

Otherwise, great event, and thanks for running it BG people. I had two hard-fought games against a couple of great opponents, and I'll be there for the semis.

I think the bigger question is, if you already had a spot in semis, why were you there?
