Good to see WoC can kick some arse

It's a good enough list, but that's all I see there, how do you know he came third?

I just started reading it and he made a game breaking error in his own favour only barely into the report where he said he rolled 11 for the to hit rolls on Infernal Gateway and so made his opponent remove his whole unit of Black Orcs. He had previously noted before this that he did not pull something out there and then the Black Orcs would get in combat and break the game giving the win to his opponent, so this was a big mistake on his part since it's 11 or 12 on the strength that causes auto destruction.

I'm not sure i follow what your saying sorry

Do you mean he made a rules error or just a tactical error?

rules error - he played it as roll an 11 to HIT on eternal gateway and auto destruct the unit, where it should have been an 11 or 12 on the STRENGTH roll instead.

the list is ok but its nothing special, ive seen way better out there but kudos to the victory none the less, its good to see WoC up in the top spots for once.

Hmmm i don't read it that way at all.I read it as he had got the spell off and then rolled an 11 for the strengh,which means the units dies?

He might have written it wrong, meaning he rolled 11 for S, who knows?

Still, not all that impressed by his list.

It's a neat list he has, but I like anyone else would probably have liked to make a few changes too it.

However, this may just prove that this player doesn't need a really good list to win. Unlike the rest of us :P

The list isn't great but it was a comp tourney (i believe) which explains it.

Oh I like it he did so well with his infantry army, I'm quite suprised, but once again the power of Chaos Warriors is shown, they are quite powerfull, but I still prefer more knights.

Cheers,

Well he specifically said he rolled 11 hits and so the Black Orcs were sent back into the warp, or something along those lines.

He did write hits, but might be meaning Strength, quite easy to write wrong, or he might have cheated but not knowing it.

Comp does a lot for WoC, we have a hard time if not being in a comp tournie, but I think you could make an even better list & still get a high comp rating w. our list, nothing that impressed me, but neither is it a weak list.
He did seem to have a lot of luck w. his warshrines & spells though.

All aussie and NZ tournaments use a comp based system and have done for a last few years.Its work very well but still isn't perfect,and i don't think it ever will be.I'm now starting to see comp based system turning up in UK events and in the US which is long over due but great to see.I'm not sure what the rest of europe is doing but i hope they have followed the same path.

I'll be making a play for the Masters next year with any luck.I'm ranked 7th or 8th in NZ at the moment and have a way to go but thats the plan.
