Past few days have been a rollercoaster. I went to the Chattanooga Classic Warhammer 40,000 tournament this past Saturday and overall had fun. I could not have gotten off on a more wrong foot though. I arrived early to CBC and met Phil wandering the streets outside. I pulled out my army case and a rubbermaid container I had packed my Ork vehicles into. I turned to talk to Phil and then hear the sound of my vehicle container hit the ground and crack open. Parts went flying into the streets. I quickly scooped up what I could find and just then realized I had left 1 of my Battlewagons at home. F#**. I went in, Found Wiley and said BRB. Raced home. Grabbed extra super glue and my 3rd Battlewagon. I rushed back. Furiously glued various guns, gretchin, and parts back together. I thought, OK, can't get any worse.

Famous last words. I get my first table assignment and get a wonderful guy known as The Dude to play. I open my figure case and F*&@ it's my Skaven Army looking at me, I'd grabbed the wrong case. Quick call to my wife. and She says she'll get ready and bring my missing case.

Eventually she shows up, I run out, grab the case, toss the Skaven in the car and continue playing.

Huge mistake here was not cutting something and adding army plates.


Battle Summary -

1st game VS Blood Angels - Awesome game, total blood bath, We tied Primary and Secondary Objectives. Came down to me having 2 more Kill Points than him.

2nd game - Leafblower IG. got stomped, I had 1 Mega Nob, 1 immobolised Battlewagon at end.

3rd game - IG Opponent was great guy. for some reason, reserved too much of his army and I was able to kill it piecemeal. I took the primary objective, secondary objective and lost none of my Troops to win Tertiary objective as well.

Had some after battle discussions with some of the players. I've come to the conclussion that this edition is ruled by the transports and Shooting. HtH is dead, unless you are a Marine.

I hate Pet Smart now.
Not only did they charge me twice for something, it's really sad when you pretty much have to throw a fit to get someone to answer a question on how you can buy a bag of prescription dog food. Then have to beg them to place a simple F***ing phone call so you can confirm, yes, your dog has terminal liver cancer, and yes, you really do need this bag of $55.00 dog food so that the dog can hopefully live a few more days/weeks. Why am I upset? It's not like just had another trip to the fertility dr, because we are not pregnant again, we have only lost 2 pregnancies, 3 babies total, and now the closest thing to a 'child' we have has developed terminal cancer. No that couldn't be the case.

And since sarcasm never comes across well on the internet, Yes I'd been to a visit to the fertility Dr, yes, we are not pregnant yet, yes, we needed that dog food to hopefully let our dog enjoy a few more days/weeks of life.
