Booo!

That's lame as hell.  I guess it's not something they can really take care of at an event that size.

Sucks that a local guy has to lose in that situation.

Good luck to all of you!

Oh, it was fun, everyone had a good time.  I just find it hilarious that we got matched up.  We could have also asked them to repair us, but it was Hans and their friend Jason vs. myself and my buddy Aaron, so since our partners had never played either of us, we figured it was fair enough to play on.

But man, there are a ridonkulous amount of Necron flyer armies.

It was an awesome time, and I can't wait for Da Boyz to go it all over again.

NOVA was pretty much the way I felt going to Disneyland when I was about 5.
