Killswitch Is Off To The ETC



So It's that time. The night before the trip to the ETC. Pretty nervous, more so due to the fact that the journey will take around 12 hours in total (we are driving! I know right..hardcore).

Really excited, and should be a great time. Seems there is also a change to the team. Due to unfortunate circumstances James Ramsay, our Nid player, has had to drop out last minute. Luckily we had a trusty Northerner to fill in the slot. In comes Courtney Rhodes with his Black Templars. Not entirely sure as to what he will be taking, but expect something similar to what he usually brings :)

Ill be there with my Wolves which have been painted over the last 2-3 weeks and STILL not finished (I'm a slow painter, sue me). For those of you who don't know, here is a recap of the list I am taking:

Sorry about the format, standard ETC layout :). I will try take a good few pics on my phone, so don't expect the best quality. I hear there will be lots of coverage over on rankingshq.com and people will be posting via Twitter and the warhammer.org.uk forums, so keep your eyes peeled for those interested.

Anyways, It's time for my well deserved nap. Wish me luck!!

  1. Good luck dude.

    That list has changed a bit though hasn't it? I thought you had 5 troops - with the single "objective sitter" with the CML?

    Good luck bra'h...bring it home for England! Smash those bitches!
    I prefer 5 or 6 troops, but you are the ETC guy...so I'm sure it's perfectly tailored for the likely match ups.. good luck again bud.

  3. Just noticed he has the "foot squad" - but actually with 3xspare lasplas's they don't actually need to be.

    I do like that idea though as you could have the CML dude just peaking between 2xrazors, and the rest sitting out of LOS granting the squad 4++ as well (if they cant get a good vantage point early).
