I wanted to remind everyone that The Indy Open (a Warhammer 40K Grand Tournament) will be held in Indianapolis, on March 3rd and 4th!

We will have a 2,000 point 64-man, 6 round win/loss Grand Tournament, with Separate prizes for the best Painted army, Best General, and Renaissance Man (best combined Paint and Generalship). There is a three color minimum for this tournament.

No, this isn't a Flogging Molly reference (as cool as that would be), but rather a quick look into an aspect of the hobby that, for various reasons, is often left out...

Spaguatyrine's First Dark Eldar Test Game against Necrons

By Spaguatyrine

VS.

So I got my first test game in next last week with a proxy army against a new necron player.  We were both new at both of our armies, but I was shocked by how the Dark Eldar performed in a positive and negative way.  I of course forgot a ton of dark eldar rules.  The game ended up with a win for the dark eldar, but I obviously have a lot of learning to do with them. I plan on getting a few games in tomorrow with them. As normal with a new army, I will make a full post after 10 test games.  If I was playing in the The Indy Open GT ..........

It's time to clean out the basement again! This time I'm getting rid of my old Fantasy Battle Dwarfs. Plus some old Epic Scale Marines and my Warmaster Army.

The Indianapolis Open GT

by: farmpunk

That's right folks. We're putting together the inaugural Indy Open. I first mentioned it a long time ago. Since then, several of us went to some big GT's (NOVA and Adpeticon). Spaguatyrine took the helm, with help from the community.

now we're on.

It is that time of year.

That time of the year has begun. Where, in Indiana; the weather changes every day, the gloom of winter hangs overhead, and the relatives start asking what you want for the holidays.

401 Followers

I don't condone violence. (Actually I do. so bring it!)

It seems yesterday we made it to 400 followers, and by the time I put this up, we've made it to 401! Ya growth! We wanted to thank everyone out there for reading along and sharing the hobby along with us.

I know Spagautyrine may be moving away from our local scene, but I'm sure he will share many juicy battle reports as he gets them.

I'm hoping we can pull Sandwyrm away from World of Tanks long enough to finish his painting tutorial for his beautiful Emo-wing.

I'll try to chime in myself with my own perspective on things and some of my Tournament reports as I take on new foes in interesting places.

I hope we have brought you many fun and interesting articles and we would like to give you many more. Thank you all!

As Grey Knights continue to increase as a strong army, do the Space Wolves have what it takes to beat the Grey Knights?

I want to talk about terrain. Using it and not using it.
