I have been tabled!



 

So I was playing in a "Soft Boys" event that used the 'Ard Boyz scenarios for those that did not qualify for the semi-finals. The winner wins a $200 voucher for the store. So whenever there is big money on the line, I try something stupid. I am beginning to think that I like to lose. Wonder how much money in winnings I could get if I ever really tried, and what is it about me that does not want to win? Why am I not working on a Space Wolf army?


 

So it is time to try out an assault based footslogging Eldar!


The army list and more after the jump:

My Demon list


Well with the new demon models coming out, I thought I would try my hand at a demon list.

  
Since I am a Tzeentch player in Warhammer Fantasy and in Chaos Space Marines, I see no reason to stop now. So that means that I am going mono-god which everyone knows is much harder than the multi-god builds. Especially without the crutch of Bloodcrushers every other list is not going to be as good.

So here is my list...

Foot Eldar Battle Report #2


So I went and finished up the 5th and final Broadside Bash Battle report. You can see them all here:

Game #1

Game #2

Game #3

Game #4

Game #5


 

Broadside Bash recap

So I finished 4-1 with a Minor Loss, Minor win, Major Win, 2 Massacres


 

Out of 47 players I finished 20th. I got hit hard in the soft scores. I was comped poorly (I guess they do not read the internet to know how bad foot eldar is). My Comp score was 22 which was the same as Reese's 3 Land Raider Space Wolf list. And here is the funny part, Hulksmash scored 27 points in Comp with a Razorback and Long Fang spam Space Wolf list. And people think comp is not broken?


 

Now as far as real scores goes, I got 72 battle points and finished in 7th place.

Foot Eldar battle report!

Like I have been promising, here is the 4th part of our 5 part series on the Broadside Bash.

I played in it back in Feb. 2010 and wrote up the batreps, but did not do the time consuming addition and formatting of the pictures.

Since I do not want to write it again, I will just post a link to it here:

You can go down 2 posts if you want to see the first 3 batreps.

Batreps for my Foot Eldar


Here are the batreps for major events that I took my Foot Eldar to for the past year. 

Now I am only posting events that I played in that had 20+ players. I attended some smaller RTTs and won there was well, but they are not worth the time and effort it takes to write up a report. Also I play many armies, and I did not take Foot Eldar to every event that I attended (I should have taken them to Adepticon, but I was in a chaos mood at the time).

2009 'Ard Boyz: July 2009 Mesa, AZ
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/250049.page
I went 2-1 (In the loss I was massacring my opponent and the game ended on round 4 giving him the win). I also beat the guy who will go on to win the AZ 'Ard Boyz Semi-Finals in game #1.


Slaughter in Space: Aug 2009 Los Angeles, CA
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/262581.page
I went 3-0 and won the event
I only wrote up a batrep for game #1. Game #2 I beat an Ork army and Game #3 I beat Tyranids.

Wild West Shootout : Oct. 2009 Mesa, AZ
http://www.40konline.com/community/index.php?topic=191410.0;topicseen
I went 5-0 and won the event


The Broadside Bash: Feb. 2010 Los Angeles, CA
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/281069.page
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/281688.page
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/283230.page
I finished 4-1 and ended up 7th in Battle points out of around 50 players
Note: I might write up the final 2 batreps this weekend.

2010 'Ard Boyz: May 2010 Mesa, AZ

To sum it up I went 16-2-1 in the past year in big tournaments, and winning 2 out of 5 events.

Stelek is off his meds


I was going to write a long post about how Stelek is wrong on all his points and back it up with posts and proof.


I could do that, but why bother arguing with some guy who never leaves his basement? I am out there actually playing in events and winning tournaments, and seeing what goes on. 

Why respond to a guy who has not played in a real tournament in 2 years? What the heck does he know about anything that goes on outside of his house?

He can say all he wants about me, but I will be out there among the people playing the game and having fun. I don't sit around all day thinking about 40k, but I am out there playing it.

I hope so see and play against you all at a tournament soon!

That crazy Stelek!

In this post Stelek once again attacks me:

http://www.yesthetruthhurts.com/2010/06/ah-humor.html

And so I go through what he said and picked it apart and showed his hypocirsy. No personal attacks, nothing that wasn't the truth that I proved by posting links (that I did) and what did he do? He deleted it.

See, Stelek is a legend in his own mind, and he might be one in his basement, but when I showed he were he is wrong over and over he gets angry.

I have to go to work but here is just one gem:

Stelek wrote "Brian could not have beaten me.  Brian did not start in reserve.  Sorry, does a unit of outflanking War Walkers count as 'in reserve'?  Oh right, another red herring,#3."

Let's take a look at Stelek's own battle report:
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/217737.page

This is what he had to say there:
"His Wraithlords he kept in reserve, and it cost him the game (I can't kill them easily)."   

So I repeat what he said in his own battle report and I and the one who is wrong?
