No Retreat Legends Winner, Winters SEO

I know I've been down on 40k lately and venting my frustrations to anyone who will listen ... but Winters winning the No Retreat Legends with a mostly first-born list has renewed my faith in 40k. He played top players - who brought top-tier armies - and won, including victories against Lawrence the Spider, Stephen Box, and Adrian from TT Titans.

David beat Goliath(s) and I've never been happier for someone else to win a few games of 40k! Flat Cap Legion!



Also, big love to SN Battle Reports for staging such an epic event. Well done and I hope to travel to Gibraltar for a No Retreat tournament someday.

Here's his video explaining his army, tactics, and thoughts behind his list.

Space Marine Armorium Cherub

Out of all of the horrors in the Warhammer 40k universe, the cherubs creep me out the most... It's one of the most grimdark things in the universe.  #miniaturepainting #paintingwarhammer #grimdark #warhammercommunity #armoriumcherub #spacemarines #astartes #adeptusastartes #new40k

Las Vegas Open Results

I had a blast in the Warhammer 40k Champs at the Las Vegas Open. I went with my buddy, Kyle and slugged it out for 3 days of gaming, big crowds, and casino food. Here are a few pics from the event. I only went 1-5 in the Champs and 1-1 in the Sunday RTT but it was still a great weekend of playing games. Two of my losses were a combined 5 points and I felt so close to having a .500 weekend.  Pro tip: Thunder wolf cavalry are tough to play in GW/WTC/Frontline terrain maps. You end up bottlenecked in your own table half. I was my own wolf jail... I'm a little embarrassed by my score, but I learned quite a bit and I think I'm going to focus on my silver Space Marines or Orks for the next year.  #Warhammer40k #lvo2025 #spacewolves40k
