Wexio spelkonvent, gaming convention day 2

And here are the pictures taken from day two.

After 3 victory's out of 3 games the first day I knew my luck would end any second.
I had a Shaltari and a PHR army to meet. I did manage surprisingly good with one draw and a small loss. Im extremely happy with my small soldiers, they did good real good.

This meant that I ended on the third place, behind the two organisers of the tournament (which I had beaten the other day... *cought cought*).
And as such I would win first price (as the organizers was disqualified from any prices). I chose a kit of some brushes, dices and a ruler.

As the convention and the games were taking its toll on strength I didn´t take as many pictures as day one.

Thanks for Erik (http://egges40k.wordpress.com/) and Stefan for a nice tournament and all the players attended. I meat some people I hadn´t meet for some time as well as some new ones.

After a crappy start with heavy losses I got back in the gamed and although I took some casualties advancing and he made some excellent hit and run moves I pushed on and demanded revenge. A very close game and tie. The kill score was differing only 4points in a 1500pts army so that says a lot about how close this game ended.

A nice Shaltari vs Shaltari picture.

Cursed PHR, you do not want to get stopped with motor problems when you rely on moving about with a skimmer bonus.

After this I shifted my whole army to his flank and almost pulled it out. Only just loosing because of his infantry in the houses got him his points. On the ground I was in command by now.
It was a nice comeback after seeing my force decimated the first couple of turns from his head on assault. Shifting to the flank and pulling his forces apart, I should have done this much earlier and things could have looked differently.
