HomeCon IV Results

Over the weekend we held HomeCon IV at the Dunn House. My wife Lynne was away so it was a good opportunity to get a bit of practice before the NZTC.

The weather was spectacular so  we managed to fit in two BBQs and on Saturday night over some beers and other drinks have a look at the new stunty book.

HomeCon was 5 rounds and most people brought their NZTC lists. The exceptions were Jeff and Joel who apparently were being super tricksey and gaining vital intelligence. Sorry to inform you guys but the NZTC lists were in the day before, you're both taking Empire and you would probably have benefited from 5 practice games rather than thinking you were Sterling Archer (especially Jeff).

Here are the results:

Raymond only played 4 games.

Sam Whitt proved to be binary - all his games were 20-0 - while Peter had the chance to win but lost to Sam in the last round. The two Dunns fought out an 11-9 which saw them both leapfrog him in the final mix.

All in all it was a great weekend with lots of very interesting games and certainly a nice lead up to NZTC in a fortnight.

  1. Ha thanks for having us.

    As for my Archer antics, I do not physically have an Empire army, thus precluding me from using one. In fact all I have is Ross' assurance that it exists. I would have brought Empire if I had any.

  2. Yeah yeah Jeff. I'm sure you could have proxies if you wanted to. It was just all a bit sad. Just like instructing Dan Butler that he was playing DoC rather than getting ETC practise with WoC.

    You are just sooooo Mallory Archer with your complicated plots.

  3. Btw Cousin Joe is now booked in for Remedial Warhammer Camp. He now has an understanding why the list Tom suggested was better than the list he submitted.

    Feb 24-28 Warhammer Boot Camp for Jack and Joe with Arch Fiend Tom

    1. I believe that with the new DoC book that would be "Arch unit of 6 beasts" Tom

  5. Note to self: Special characters that do not invoke rage quits on the internet are not worth trying...neither is High magic.
