Crynn Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I think this pretty much states what I have said all along. To accompany a Draigowing list you take interceptors and dreads over dreadknights. I would perosnally have upgraded one dread to Venerable for scoring purposes and used that to claim my back objective instead of wasting 110 points on strikes that won't be inrange from their. I don't like solodins but 1 in reserve to counter tablequater mission objectives and just walking on or DS on would be a pain as well, very easy to hide and only 55 points left not doing anything as apposed to 110, other than that My original draigo list was exactly the same as his. He obviously played it well as well, no surprise on the no apothacary either.

greatcrusade08 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 a SW chap i know said he looked at the winners list and it was 3 points over the limit.. not sure if that can be confirmed on here.. i also hear there was a few 'shenanigans' in the final match between Sw and GK, but no-one seems to want to clarify.. anyone heard anything?

nurglez Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 From what I read, something to do with njals abilities going off even though the as player went second, or something like that... Check out bell of lost souls.

BLACK BLŒ FLY Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 The SW player definitely cheated. He has been playing the same list for over a year now so "I forgot." is no excuse. G :P Here is a link to an interview I did with the Draigowing player: http://greenblowfly.blogspot.com/2011/08/4...-nova-open.html Enjoy. ;) G ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/237290-draigowing-army-finished-at-2-at-nova-open/page/2/#findComment-2863486 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice interview! Can't confirm the list being 3 points over but Njals ability was defnately used incorrectly. Don't know if it would have drastically changed the game but as it was in the first few turns where the mistake happened, who knows.

Fred Johnson the 3rd jr Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Game 2 batrep by Blackmoor: http://blackmoors40k.blogspot.com/2011/08/...-vs-stelek.html LOL. What a disaster. Yet he still pulled out a win. Or maybe Stelek just sucks that badly. I always assumed Stelek's playing ability is far better than his writing ability / style, but maybe not. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/237290-draigowing-army-finished-at-2-at-nova-open/page/2/#findComment-2865341 Share on other sites More sharing options...
breng77 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Well Stelek did end up goign 7-1 so he is a very good player. Whether or not your agree with him on every aspect of the game (I do on somethings and not on others, he tends to be quite extreme, but that is how you get people to pay attention sometimes.)

Fred Johnson the 3rd jr Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Yeah yeah yeah I know. I was just poking fun at him for writing like a brain damaged 12 year old punk. Presentation matters, and for him it almost always negatively overshadows his ideas. PS - Results for NOVA are up, including painting stores. Stelek scored a 0. Dumbass.

breng77 Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 I find Stelek easier to 1.) Stomach in person. 2.) Stomach if you don't read the comments on his site. He tends to really get into mud slinging really easily if people don't agree with him. Yeah the Full results of the NOVA GT are up, if Stelek got a 0 I'm betting he never got judged for painting (soem people never went over and got it done).
