Lol, my dicerolling fell off a cliff basically. Couldn't activate, hit, or make armour saves. Not a winning combination, especially with 13 models on the table. Game 3 against Gavin was compounded by him rolling the best dice i've seen barring perhaps Steve or Dave Thomas too. We played a second game where his dice were then even better! 5 Warp Spiders (inc Autarch) managed 6 hits out of 6, then followed it up with 2 crits out of a possible 2. Sad times

Thanks Florian/Mr G for being main driving force to make this event happen and to all participants for great time during games and banter:)
Looking at the results of our club (first six places and best painted) it looks like result of bribery;))
Well done everybody, hopefully we will manage to organise it annually.
Cheers,
Rad

Ja, the Central London Wargames Club is clearly the ruling champion of London till next year! *keeps neutral face…not

Big props to you as well HerrR, not only for putting us all to shame with your superb painting but also for bringing your personal table along! Has been a worthy table number 1!

There is no doubt for me that i'll organise another Battle of the Thames in 2014!
Expect it to return bigger, faster, stronger!

Also thanks to all players for putting up with a first-time TO!
I learned a lot and will thrive to smooth out every bump.

Last but not least, i apologise again to all winners, runner-ups and spoons for the mess-up concerning our sponsor!
The team of Steel Crown Production is very sorry about the situation and i have been promised that everybody will receive something in the post the next days!
More infos on this soon!

Just wanted to say thanks to MrGonzo for organising this , your enthusiasm and drive.
London definitely deserves it's own tourney scene. Hopefully CLWC and Clapham can do more next year. (If I recall Clapham where thinking of a 1500 on 4x4 tourney which sounds very interesting)

And thanks to my opponents for some tremendously enjoyable and friendly games. A real pleasure

Oh and congrats to Gavin! About bloody time eh?

Quick query Flo - how did you go about ordering the placements where folk had the same tournament points?

Based on win/loss/draw ratio.
Will look into pairing apps for next time to make that job easier. Did mess my head around a bit to be honest, hehe
Edit: Rankings HQ only runs on Windows… -.-

Sry for the bad lighting, the location is not the most picture-friendly one.




Sweet! Will have a look into it. Thanks, MephistonAG!

I had such a great time! cant wait for the next BOTT.

Nice job, Carlos!

_________________

Slight error on my list - Like Radek I only had an Autarch with the Warp Spiders, I did not have an Exarch as well.

Interestingly Radek and I had effectively the same list, the only differences being that he had three Vypers in his Jetbikes and three heavy weapons in his Guardians, while I had one Vyper and two Heavy weapons respectively.

UPDATE:
The additional prize support from Steel Crown Productions will be going out as we speak and should be with players shortly!

The team of Battle of the Thames likes to give a big thanks to Tom Webb of SCP for his generous support!

There are some mighty fine pre-release goodies included so make sure to let people know about it, either here or on your personal blog!
