Gonna have to drop unfortunately. Got a bit of the nurgles rot that’s been going around. I’ll give nexus a shout once they’re open to inform them. I hope everyone else has a good time!

Hopefully I'll be able to attend the next one. (I couldn't attend this one as it's a holiday weekend, so wasn't able to book the day off)

Good times were had! I had three fun games and three fantastic opponents. Always enjoyable playing you guys.
I was also pretty excited to see another person running beasts. For the true children of Chaos!
Thanks everyone for making it happen. Looking forward to the next one. Hopefully Shannon can play next time!

A very chill tourney with three great games against great three great opponents. Some fun-looking armies and I would like to play against all of them!
Highlights of the day for me were the Herald of Khorne on Blood Throne dragging big things into combat with Bloodbind. Love that prayer! The Slaughterpriest feels that he did great work today, but the Bloodreavers he kept sacrificing for Blood Tithe aren't so sure. Its tough being a intern in the Blades of Khorne.
I thought the tournament pack worked well.

In my first two games, my wildfire taurus was quite effective, and probably fairly obnoxious to my opponents. That fights last bubble can have an impact for sure.
However, by the third game, Khorne had had enough of my reliance on magical nonsense. My tzaangor shaman prepared to cast the spell and rolled snake eyes for a miscast. Because there was a skull altar present, that became d6 mortals. Rolled a 6. Tzaangor shaman promptly exploded in a burst of blood and feathers. I love seeing the wild stuff happen. Plus I felt it was some nice revenge for my first two opponents haha.

Plus I felt it was some nice revenge for my first two opponents haha. That was a fun moment and you were a great sport about it! Khorne and Tzeentch conspired together for that sequence of events... Congrats on winning the tourney! Your Beasts of Chaos have defeated my Stormcast Eternals (Nov tourney), my Slaves to Darkness and now my Blades of Khorne. In all three games I did well against your big stuff, but then I lose board control to the smaller stuff. I think your money making units are those mid-sized Beasts in units of ten. They can do work but don't cost too much. My Blades of Khorne seemed to offer the best counter with my own horde of units but I still came up a little short. I think a Skull Cannon (instead of the Herald on Blood Throne) would have given me a way project power against those units as you start maneuvering. Splitting my twenty-strong unit of Bloodletters into two units of 10 (giving me three units of ten) might also be the way forward to help me play the mission. Or four Bloodthirsters...
