  1. Have to say I had a great time. All three games were fun. I've been to two events put on by Snake Eyes and both were run in a smooth and professional manner.

    As my second and third games were both against IG (and I was playing IG), I would have preferred if the match-up system you used would attempt to avoid multiple match-ups against the same army. I realize this may not be possible, just a suggestion.

    I think the missions were great. The environmental effects were a nice twist. I'm looking forward to more of these in the future.

    Finally, I think the painting would be better decided with participation from the judges as well as the players.

  2. Dave,

    Thanks for the feedback, as for mirror matches we will talk about that internally to see if this is something we want to account, though understandably mirror matches are normally not expected.

    As for Overall painting Judges do get 5 votes per judge and we do individually inspect the armies in the top 3 spots. If something seems out of balance or you have a specific example e-mail us at astro-telepathica@atlanticbb.net and we will go thru the photo's.

    Thanks,
    Warboss Gubbinz

    Next tournament we may put caveats of painting for a single army model or whole army . As always we appreciate the feedback, thanks and see you at the next tourney!

  3. Loved the games gents... I have a greater respect for nature now that my boys melted in the rain. Looking forward to more action from my trenchers in these tournies sometime in the future.
