Hi!
Sorry for report delayment. So here we are, had the 14 players all show up (hell yeah!
), however one of them not felt the craft to play, so I had to step back to keep equal numbers.
After 3 games of agony, bloodshed, tears and whatnot the results are this (had to delete names).
I. Eldar Alaitoc Craftworld
II. Tyranid Leviathan Hive
III. Space Marine Codex Astartes
IV. Imperial Guard Minervan Tank Legion
V. Tau Third Phase Expansion
VI. Space Marine Codex Astartes
VII. Space Marine Codex Astartes
VIII. Necron Raiders
IX. Chaos Space Marines Black Legion
X. Imperial Guard Steel Legion
XI. Chaos Space Marines Black Legion
XII. Imperial Guard Steel Legion
I might add that the winner is an experienced player, and the silver received by a player who may not play regularly but had started Epic even before me!
The new players picked up the pace quite good and whats most important they ENJOYED the game aswell!
The changes to Minigeddon rules worked very well. Disallowing the initiative retaining makes things easier to understand by new players, and I did not see that it would ruin the meta, not even for Eldar.
An interesting note that it increases the value of starting blast markers as you cannot do prep assault when starting a turn, and forces the player to come up with something else or take an EPIC risk.
It was a good event, and we are looking forward for another in the future!
And here are the pictures.
