Blog, what blog?? Oh! That blog

So i have neglected my blog for quite a while, but today i have posted a big update on my tournament results.

I will be making an effort to keep the up to date from now onwards.

If for some reason you want to see more right now you can check out the Bad Dice facebook page www.facebook.com/baddice

Its been a while!

Its been a while since my last update,

I’ll give a quick rundown of what i’ve been upto –

The Masters –

The weekend went really well. The Gaming table donated by GW looked fab even though i never quite managed to gte to table 1 and play on it! I came 6th in the end after a poor start of 2 losses. Congrats to Martin Bunting who is the Master!

GT Final –

I took my Dark Elves to the GT final. I had 2 wins and a loss on saturday followed by a win, loss and draw on sunday. That saw me come 38th which while not being bad, it isn’t that good either.

Merseyside Meltdown –

So the following weekend it was the Merseyside Meltdown. I finished 5th here last year so wanted to do well. I took my dark elves again but swapped out all the magic for some fighty troops, main difference was a Dreadlord on a Manticore and 2 chariots. I managed to finish in 2nd Place so i’m very happy with that result.

Thats us upto date with tournaments, the next one is Call to arms on 21st March.

The other thing i have been up to is setting up a podcast. Check it out at www.baddice.co.uk

The Masters is here + ETC Team Announced

Next weekend will be the first ever WFB UK Masters tournament. I am plaing in this and taking my woodelves.

My wood elves are-

Highborn on Eagle
BSB on Eagle
Spellsinger
Spellsinger
3×10 Glade Guard
3×8 Dryads
2×5 Glade Riders
6 Wildriders
5 Wildriders
5 Wardancers
5 Way Watchers
Eagle

Its been a while since i used my wood elves but i’m confident that they can still stand up for themselves in the comp system.

This week has also seen the 2009 ETC team announced

Ben Curry
Ben Johnson
Ant Spiers
Adam Hall
Michael Biggs
Phil Manwaring
Adi MacWalter
Will Goodwin

7 of those players will be taking part in the masters next weekend so it promises to be a hard event.

Sheffield Slaughter Imminent

This time tomorrow i will be in sheffield getting  ready for the Slaughter 2009.  I’m taking my Dark Elves although they have been toned down slightly(only slightly, its still a no comp event)

My first game is a grudge match against Phil Manwaring.  We have been mates for a few years now but have never actually played!  Be sure to check here for a tournament report and photos.

Happy New Year

Happy new year – This morning is a hungover update.

On Tuesday I went to the Dragon Slayers annual christmas gaming day and got in a few games.  I used my dark elves and played against Dave Grants Skaven, Tim Fishers Vampire Counts and Adi Macwalters Brettonians.  I managed 3 wins from 3 so well happy at that, It was good to play against Dave as even though he used to be a Slayer i never had the pleasure before he moved to live in New Zeland.

Any christmas gaming day wouldn’t be complete without a suitable photo to show what we got up to and i think this one of Tim sums it up perfectly.

Smell it, Smell it, Take it!!

 

Last night was Ben Johnson New Years Eve party.  Much fun was had by all and i little bit of alchol was consumed.  Ben, Adam Hall, Alex West, Lewis Johnson and myself were there so of course there was some warhammer talk,  and topic of conversation was the Comp system for the event we are going to on Saturday,  the full system can be found HERE

I am starting on 100 points so it will be interesting to see how it effects me and if i can turn it round.

Thats all for now, thanks for reading and see you next time
