Last weekend my buddy Kyle and I traveled to Wichita to represent the Topeka Radio Symphony Orchestra in the Warhammer 40k Grand Tournament. Boy, did I beef it. For some reason, I decided to not play Orks or Blood Angels and bring my Salamanders so I could play my Centurions one last time before they're sent to Legends. I played the Forgefather's Seekers and Vengeful Hosts detatchments, with Take and Hold disposition. Man, I wasnt ready for a tournament and mistakes were made. I was nearly tabled in every game and I went 1-5 with my only win against a player who was throwing the match because it was his second game of 11th and he was just playing for a laugh. Also, I had a rough week at work and received bad news on the day we arrived (twice!) Instead of giving a recap of each matchup, I'll just say that I played poorly, I had a crappy attitude, and I didn't enjoy myself.
This smash captain is ready to join a unit of Vanguard Vets with flamers! I painted him up to lead my army at the Flying Monkey GT. For one more month, he'll be able to allow the unit to give devastating wounds to the flamers and +1 shots per model with the Immolater enhancement. #Warhammer40k #salamanders40k #armageddon40k #astartes #spacemarines40k
