I can speak from experience, but when you run a big event like that with little help once the event is over you want to take a big breath and break. He will have them on Dakka soon.

It was an honor to play with these giants of 40k despite my sub-par performance over the weekend.
To put things in perspective for those who didn't go, Courtney outperformed 7 of America's ETC team and beat the Adepticon team champion 1 on 1 with his standard Eldar list.
Jay was only 10 battlepoints behind Chris with a GK list he had not playtested.
DaBoyz took 3rd of 15 with no wolves, guard, or blood angels. I think every one of the other teams had a wolf player and one BA or Guard player.
IDK about you but I feel 100% better about losing all those games over the past year to the phenomenal players we have in Rochester.

Brian from the WC here, well done guys. No power codexes? That just shows that people overemphasize codex creep. Skill and preparation are still the deciding factors in a game of 40k.
Next year hopefully you won't escape us. : )

Congratulations Chris, it is nice to know that the guy locally trouncing us is also taking it out on others at the 'national' level.
