It will not come as a surprise to many that this year, the Warsheds haven’t seen as many games played as usual. Myself, I’ve only played a handful of games since March, and only 2 games of 9th edition in person. It does not seem likely that our team tournament will be happening any time soon. How dismal.

Hope to see you on the battlefields soon! Any latecomers answer to this man.
Well, we’ve had a rest, taken a few days with our feet up, a few rounds in the sauna, and a jolly good cup of tea and a sit down. I have to say, running the thing is a LOT more work than playing in it. I’m almost glad we didn’t have to field a team in the end 😉
We had some truly lovely trophies commissioned, and having put half the profits straight back into the pot, there were some real almost-cash voucher prizes on offer. Real almost cash!

We’re back for day 2 of our team tournament! Very ingratiated that everyone from yesterday came back, and glad that everyone’s enjoying Cardiff.
The quality of painting has, of course, been very high. We’re still taking in the votes as I type, but here’s a gallery of some of the favourites.

We’ve started! It’s now a hour into the first round, and spirits are high. I’ve been out grabbing some photos of some of the models – all of them are well painted. Here’s what I’ve seen so far…

A geeky weekend to celebrate Stoo’s birthday, which culminated in an enormous 5 way Apocalypse battle! Noone’s sure who out of us won (it was the imperial forces that prevailed overall), but it’s pretty clear that the real winner of the day was Games Workshop.
