Gamer's Realm
West Windsor, NJ
Thanks to that smelly Goff for hosting this party, it was well worth the drive and time to attend. :cheers It was great to see Hakky, Nosher, Mad Grot, Sproston, the Inquisitor of weediness, and Shas'O'Fish'ead. It was also nice to meet some new guys such as Dakka Bu, and General Malaiase.
No need for me to go into great detail about what happened; on my side of the table we were facing space wolves (no idea how many), and about 7k in panzee. To my left was a Tyranid player who must have had at least 4k in bugs, mostly big.
Highlights for me was grinding space wolf special character Ragnar to bits with the Gargant lil'Krooza's chainfist, watching Blackreach Bob eat the alpo breathed wot's 'is name special Character general for lunch in hand to hand. FYI, dropping 5 terminators next to a bwagon with a 30 boy slugga mob and a Warboss is not a great idea, even with wet noodle chopppaz. And how can I forget carpet bombing Shas o'fishead? That was sweet, Hakbash and I had our fighta bommaz make opposite attack runs, and we had to roll to see if we'd crash.....it was very very close!
Downsides were facing upainted models (athough my opponent was a great guy), the cardboard imperial titan, and having a gargant getting taken out by a painted dixie cup (vortex grenade). I really hate things like the cardboard titan, sure, the gamer made some effort, but to what end? Was it to have a great model, or to simply be able to field a piece of super cheese to eek out a victory? I always find stuff like that a slap in the face of hobbiests who actually spend time and energy on their models.
Any way, no one wants to hear me drivel. Pictures, it is.

rumble in the jungle
Nosher's boyz begin tearing it up in town (that's a Konviktz stompa providing some support).
the Mad Grotz n' gitz n' dakkabu move forward!
The mekboy gargant goes down in one turn from the dixie cup of death (vortex grenade). Nothing like having your fancy pants model, representing a gazillion hours of work getting taken out by a bloody plastic cup. Another thing not to miss......
Bit of a traffic jam, with the mekboy blocking the road.
Hakky begins his air raids over the jungle.
a target rich environment.
Old Shas O' fishead doesn't look too pleased as the fighta bomma bears down.
Dakkabu continues his surge forward

Warboss Sproston gets dragged away for a BBQ - with 'imself the main course!

Konviktz surge foward as another drop pod touches down. That's one of our fighta bommaz pulling out of an attack run. the Orkz ruled da skyz on our tables.
20 Wulfen in my back field. They killed the basalisk, than ate two attack runs of napalm from the fighta bommaz.
Hello, Lunch. Blackreach Bob and da boyz krumped these beakies good, including the super character über general of Alpo.
Not to be shown up, konviktz shoota boyz attack a dread in hand to hand.
Back in da Kroozada, the real Warboss Bob and his scar boy - er - Nob mob move forward.
Where did all the pretty doggies go?
