No Defence - 15 TD's let it, TweetyRawdon
Best Defence - 5 conceded, Endalos (Gorgoroth had only 4, but he won, also Zulu had 5 but he also won ;))
Top Scorer - 15 TD's scored, vmcat

Champion - Gorgoroth


Best painted to Thor87 ;)

I dont usually go a "best sporting", however I heard Besters do something that cost him a game and may have cost the a top spot and SWTC spot. So in honour of that, Besters was most sporting but wasnt around for awards as he to run.

Another round of applause for vmcat for completing the 24.

Which was?
His opponent declared a pass, to score a winning TD on turn 8 (iirc). Rolled a 2. The thrower went to pull his models back, thinking it all over. Besters says, No, that's inaccurate roll the scatter. Which promptly lands on target, gets caught, and TD is scored.

A slight error has been pointed out to me.
I'm not changing the awards, but Itchen vmcat are the wrong way around, meaning vmcat won the Glowworm for 4th and Itchen was 3rd.

Sorry :(

Excellent fun as normal, hopefully back next year, with a proper team to suck with.

Great tourney as always :) Had some fun and very close games, lot of them going right down to the wire. The game vs Val was an especially fun roller-coaster ride, both of us determined to mess it up, getting both lucky, unlucky and lucky again :) Fortunately Besters was rolling snakes for fun in our match, and even then i very nearly managed to throw away nuffle's gift.

Looking forward to next year, sounds perfect to bring the goblins back into action.

Gratz to Gorgoroth, Zons bossing things again :)

Al,

Another great tournament, thank you.

Congrats to gorgoroth for winning, if only that pesky armour 7 was easier to break!

Thank you to my opponents for some truly great games (I pitched vmcat! Is that even possible??), and it was me who Besters picked up the scatter/catch/score oversight against, which meant we went into the second half 2-1 to him instead of 2-0.
It was this which ultimately meant that a win was possible for me, instead of a probable draw, which ultimately cost him (probably) the SWTC and maybe the Exiles tourney as well.

I approached Al after the game and made a strong case for a most sporting award to be generated and given to Jim.
iirc correctly, chocolate may have been witheld if he refused.
