Weekend gaming – Battle of the Austin Stores!!!
I was lucky enough to be invited as one of the participants in the inter store tournament between BattleForge Games and Dragon’s Lair. Since I am one of the local ork players, I’ve decided to throw down with the green horde. The tournament is a 2 day affair, and each team consists of 4 players. We play a total of 4 games each. The point total is 2000 points and the normal 5th edition tournament rules are being used.
But enough of all of that, why am I talking about this? Well first of all I wanted to show two lists and get opinions on each one, as well as give a preview of an upcoming tournament report. I know that it has been lacking on Bell’s lately, so I’ve decided to throw down with a Batrep of the tournament.
Now onto the lists. I have two different builds that are fully painted and I want to see what the Bell’s community thinks.

Both are fully painted and correctly modeled etc. Both are completely different play styles and I want to see what everyone thinks. Both are right at 2000 points and both have the bits I like (Nobz, cool boss, nobz).
Look for a report next week. And for those interested, here is the BW I finished up as well as some new art for the next army I’m planning.
If you have any questions about the list or want to know more, shoot me an email. And again, the link below takes you to my art and miniature commission site.
