[Plainville MA] Warhammer 40k Trios Event - 2/25/2012

[Benjamin]

The tournament went well today, so thanks to the BG crew for another successful event!

[Bill]

I had a blast as always. Thanks to the BG crew and my opponents in three very fun games I had.

[Mike_k]

Had a blast as always. Everything was smooth and on time.

This tournament was a great time.  I didn't bring any forgeworld stuff, but I really hope that some future tournaments continue to allow it... it added a little extra spice and variety!

[PhoenixFire]

Great fun, had some really fun games. looking forward to the next one!

[KestrelM1]

I'm intrigued to know whether any ludicrous bull!@#$ involving Forgeworld models occurred

My guess is likely not, which is a good sign for future events!

The only thing I'm aware of is that one player, and I honestly don't know who, had a Land Raider Achilles and a Techmarine in the same 1000 point list, but apparently both are Elites? Most of the armies I saw didn't bother.

[Frosthydra]

I think there was something with a normal elite choice and a FW Dreadnaught (which apparently counts as an elies as well) in a 1000 point list.

For some reason Army Builder didn't list the Dreadnaught as having any type, which screwed things up.  Aside from that, I don't think I saw anything crazy either.

I think the achilies is a heavy choice for vanilla, ba, bt and something else?

There was somebody running around with a "seige" dreadnought or something

So... what made this Trios event more "casual" than normal tournaments?

[Grimwulfe]

24 players instead of 40 players.  Trios in general the format lends itself to more casual play.  And more theme lists instead of Power builds.

[andalucien]

I was actually hoping to see MORE crazy forgeworld shenanigans...   I hope that FW continues to be allowed in future tournaments.  I want to run my Blight Drones!

Me too I was sorely disappointed that I had to miss out on this one due to previous obligations. Very much hoping the next one fits my schedule
