I am glad my unusual antics and equally odd antics had entertained you folks during your trip. I shall start my secret device and concoct a plan to crack your list... until we meet again :) Thanks a lot, Mike.

I always enjoy a game that comes down to the very end, they are the most exciting. I didn't know about the whole super hero's theme to our game, sure did make for a fun write up though. Hope to play you again I would love another epic clash, always an honor to meet another top knoch general. (I met a few at this years OFCC) I learned quite a few things in our game that I look forward to trying out with my own marines, we had a very long conversation on the drive upto Astro (http://www.astronomi-con.com/) in Vancover, BC this last weekend about your list, made the 10+ hour drive much more bearable. Below is my list for the tournament, I normally give my list out to all the players I meet. I had enough copies, just slipped my mind. (or was it some Batman super device messing with my head?) I have left the list, complete with the error that a few people have pointed out.

Nids can be very tough for Eldar, but otherwise offers the best match up since Eldar did not have any PF equivalent and make their warriors actually do what they are supposed to do. As far as generalship goes, I consider the ones who make very little mistakes during a game a good general. Sure you don't take as much risks, but in the long run, it is the player who is consistent and make less mistakes that's going to come up ahead. I definitely like the current army’s paint scheme.

I got my clocked cleaned by a Nid army in my next game. Mostly because my dice went sour - and I had no clue about nid warriors with lashes- poison and bone swords LOL. I would still say I am an average general... but sometimes I am just on my game LOL. The special missions - I tend to always forget about things like special items LOL. I like my lists to be on the razors edge - I like to play fluffy lists - sometimes light. I feel that many of my opponents underestimate the lists I take. I often get draws - sometimes I get a win. For our game - I think your mistakes meant more to the closeness of the game - than my own generalship of my force. I am still planning my TSHFT army adjustments - either in this particular army paint scheme or something entirely new. -d wow – thanks for the kudos Zen – it was a fun game – and Marines are probably my best opponent army.
