Herr Fernseher here again, Brent's
temporary lackey and correspondent in the field. Turns out Brent played his first game with Kenny (president?) of 40k Wrecking Crew. The couple times I stopped by their table, the tension seemed high, but Brent told me afterward it was a great, competitive game, which is what the Wrecking Crew pride themselves on. Interestingly, Kenny is one of the few people I trusted yesterday, thanks to his purity seal. I didn't see it on him today, so I kept my distance.

This guy's arm was as big as mine and Brent's put together, so I kept back, just in case Brent was pissing him off. |
Cliffsnotes: results and a personal note on the current leader of the pack. And your pixfix, of course.
Despite primary, secondary, and tertiary objectives, these two scored a perfect tie. With 80 tables in play, this put them in the middle of the pack, Brent on table 42, Kenny on table 41 for game 2. The one other Wrecking Crew member I've seen is on table two for the second game.

This is a Tyranid titan. Sorry the picture is so dark, but I didn't want to spoil the fact that he is crouching in the shadow of vehicle ten times his size. |

Behold the ridiculously large aircraft. See how the Hierophant cowers in the background? |

The Great Conductor holds court. And yes, he does seem very happy to be here. |
And on a personal note, as a former goateed Eldar player, it was good to see a goateed Eldar player on Table 1 just now. Big Red is not the only one glad to be here.
And here was Mission 1:

Good pics, and thanks for the Scenario sheet, it's nice to know what the players are up against. Go Team Brent!
Actually, Brent's first name is Edward. Really. (And thanks. I was once a shutterbug, and this event is actually making me more interested in photography than wargaming. Credit where due: Brent is taking lots of good ones too. Typically he takes quick flash shots, which often turn out better than my slow, no-flash shots.)
Sigh. That is a LOT more...vibrant...than our Tournaments. :(
