40K: Team America: Time to Conquer
It’s time to conquer the Old World in the name of for life liberty and the pursuit of Win. Warhammer 40,000 Team America is in the air!
By the time this article posts, Team America 40K will be in route to Europe to participate for the third year in a row in the 2012 WH40K European Team Championships on August 17th-19th. Training and preparation has been intense with everything culminating to a pinnacle of perfection in the next few days. We face off against Norway for the first round and will have updates on our progress as internet access allows.
Since WargamesCon 2012 in June lot of news has developed.
2012 Team Members – Nick Rose is taking a rest from the ETC this year, and after reviewing options with several qualified players, Mike Mutscheller has agreed to step up and fill the void. We welcome Mike and will greatly appreciate having this internationally experienced veteran on the team.
2013 Team America 40K – Congratulations to Alan Bajramovic (a 2012 Team member) for automatically qualifying for the 2013 team by winning the overall singles event at WargamesCon. The NOVA Open is the next qualifying event coming up shortly after the 2012 ETC.
