The link is for the steamroller kit, not the rules bud.

I have some, but an extra box would be helpful. Thanks for offering.

Yep, we'll have a practice event on Thursday at 6 PM at the Dueling Grounds. There is another thread about it on this subforum.

Hope to see you there.

Planning on trying to shake off this hangover, and make a few lists quick and then drive up to collect my 1st place prizes.

Cool. It's "sign-in" at noon, and "dice down" at 12:30 if that helps you at all.

This is not a typo. Believe it or not, the tourney software I was using didn't have Minions as a faction choice. I'm pretty sure it was released right before those contracts came out. So, I had to improvise.

Pictures are worth thousands of words:

I just discovered that my camera was set to the lowest possible resolution.

Expect much better looking pictures in the future.

I'd like to see people's lists. If they don't mind my curiosity.

I had two lists ready for the tournament but I only used one the whole time. I really enjoy playing Strakhov and I feel like I have found a good list that I have a lot of fun with.

Strakhov +6
-Behemoth-13
-Kodiak-8
Wardog-1
Kayazy Eliminators-3
Kayazy Eliminators-3
Kayazy Assassins-8
-Kayazy Underboss-2
Battle Mechaniks-3

All of the Kayazy are VERY hard to hit and last a lot longer than any of the other infantry I have tried, including Boomhowler and Co. The Eliminators hit very hard. I've taken out a Hunter, Snapper, and Nephilim Bolt Thrower with them so far. They have also taken a chunk out of a couple 'casters. The Behemoth provides a solid melee threat to other warjacks as well as two solid bombard shots. Strakhov speeds up my entire army as well as makes one of my jacks a monster with Superiority. Also, the ability to put stealth on himself makes him immune to a few assassination runs.

I had a lot of fun in the tournament yesterday and I am already looking forward to the next one! I had some lucky rolls and some things go my way and I can't wait to play again!

Bloody Barnabus
Wrastler
Spitter
Snapperx2
Gaterman Posse x2

Reinforcements
Totem Hunter
Croak Hunter

Basic Gator list, slap a buff on the Posse and hope they survive long enough to line a shot up to the caster. Woulda murdered light infantry, but of course all I got was buffed up trollkin and warbeasts. Really need to learn pigs enough to run them in a timed event. The dice go bad on my posse charge rolls and there locked in place plinky heavy targets for a damage or 2.
