Warhammer 40k - I am going to the Nationals Tournament tomorrow! Wish me luck!
Hey everyone! So I am getting my army ready for the big day tomorrow! The South African Warhammer National Championship!
This year it will be held at Battle Bunker Paarl which is about an hour's drive, but @xenowolfza and I shall be car pooling so that makes things easier haha.
There are a lot of tough armies in the tournament! I am nervous! The lists were released a few hours ago and I have been rifling through those to see what I could be facing.
Here are the numbers breakdown of factions being played:
Adepta Sororitas (Sisters of Battle): 6
Orks: 5
Chaos Space Marines: 4
Space Marines: 4
Space Wolves: 4
Tyranids: 4
Necrons: 4
Chaos Daemons: 3
Astra Militarum: 3
World Eaters: 2
Adeptus Custodes: 2
Dark Angels: 2
Imperial Knights: 2
Death Guard: 2
Chaos Knights: 1
Black Templars: 1
Blood Angels: 1
Leagues of Votann: 1
Thousand Sons: 1
Adeptus Mechanicus: 1
Drukhari: 1
That's 54 players. Looks like there were some last minute drops out of the tourney.
I have had to look at this tournament and revalue what I think would be a good result. Think It would be something like this:
0/5 Bad
1/4 OK
2/3 Good
3/2 Great
4/1 Excellent
5/0 Emperor Blessed

@aussieninja, I sent you an $LOLZ on behalf of zakludick
(1/8)
All the best dude 🤘👊
Good luck ! I hope you get an awesome result, but more importantly, I hope you have a lot of fun 😀
Also... take pics and tell everyone you'll be posting them on Hive ! We need more tabletop gamers on the platform, and a tournament like this is an ideal place to recruit them 😁
If you're not the winner ( I reckon you've got a good chance...), then tell the winner that if they start a Hive account, do an intro post and one about the tournament, I've give them 20 HP. Not delegate... give 😀
I shall tell the winner that indeed!
His name is Ashley Clutten!
ooooh, you were like a kid on Christmas eve! I'm so glad you participated! You put in a lot of hard work and that meant you could have a lot of fun!
