Tournament Prep

I've been playing in a Crusade league, plus a pick-up game a week, and occasional GTs with my various Space Marine armies.

40k battle report


I win about 1 in 10 games. Oof.

I've tried "net listing," watching videos, picking other players brains, etc but I just can't get over the hump. I can't even get to 50-50. I've done everything except paying for online coaching.

This last weekend I played two games, one with a player about my level, and another top-20 world ranked 

It's weird to say, but a famous player moved to a tiny town near by and he reached out to me for a pickup game. Of course I said yes, hoping to glean the secrets of the winning ways of War-hams from him. 

I had a blast but he whooped me good. He gave me some tips, especially on army building and I've been toying around with points to craft the perfect 50-50 list for a Grand Tournament coming up in two weeks. 

I'm planning on using the Guilliman-Calgar combo with lots of armor. I keep tweaking it but I feel like I'm getting closer and closer. No more blaming dice, it's on me to get it done.

Callidus Assassin

This is my newly painted Callidus assassin, Mary Poppin-yourbackfield. She scores points. I hate that I have to play one of these to stay competitive. Yar.

2024 ITC Rankings

Judging by my win-loss record, I've had a terrible year playing Warhammer 40k. Needless to say, I'm flabbergasted at the final rankings of the 2024 ITC season. What?!? I placed in the bottom 10% at the LVO; I placed even worse than players who dropped out after 3 games, so I'm not sure how those points and placings are tabulated, nor how season points are calculated but I'm in the 2,000s for the USA rankings? One bonus though, I'm the top "Dusty" in the world.
