pics from the Northeast Epic Armageddon Tournament IX

[Evil Dave]

These are from the Pre-Tourney Friday Night Wild Rumpus


I decided to take my Warlord out for a spin in the Pre-Tourney Friday Night Wild Rumpus.


I surrounded him with some Tactical formations and Scouts.


Kal brought his Emperor's Children.


They had some Knights, ground pounders, mechanized infantry and Dreadclawers.


RobbyPK (Rob) brought his Ultramarines.





And Dwarf Supreme (Tim) his Mechanicus.


I also loaded up a Landing Craft with Assault Marines, Devastator's and Destructors. They flattened the EC's BTS.


Ed's Marauders straffe Jimmy's Falcons.





Tim's Reaver and Russes advance.


Facing down the degenerate Children.











Pew pew!


I bought Wreckage for $5. Two games were thoroughly enjoyed on Friday night too. Money well spent.

The Coach's Necrons giving Rob's Marines a hard time.

[Elbows]

That's...a lot of epic.  Looks like fun.

[Vermis]

A smörgåsbord of proper-scale goodness. If it was half as much fun as it looks, it must've been great.

(Ah, green Mark 3 rhinos. That takes me back.)

[von Lucky]

Yeah - thanks for sharing all those photos! Some nice objective markers (though the Eureka mammoth with a Space Marine (?) on his back confuses me. ).

[crabking]

Simply impressive. Thanks for sharing 

[Major_Gilbear]

Simply fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing (says an old Epic fan).
