Senger's Drago Lords took 1st in the singles tourney, while Boss Forskull's mob took 10th out of 34. Then in the Team tournament we grabbed a second place finish. It was a good warm up for adepticon and we'll being itching to get in a scrap once we hit Chicago.

GREY Knights vs the World (a rebuttal to Hero @ BoLS)
As we all known the Grey Knights are just around the corner and I for one am getting pretty pumped up for this release. As I played my Knights for a good 3 or 4 years on the tournement scene, but decided to go with my marines for a little better sucess rate. However, its not because I wasn't having sucess, I was quite good with my knights and rarely was I ever out of a game. I had some bad luck at adepticon gladiator one year, but I totally overcame that the next year I played. I have a feeling that the Grey Knights will be far better than anyone thinks, maybe not so much in the hands of those who will just start knights, but for me and those who already have played them for years.
Playing the third edition codex for as long as I did with deamonhunters gave me a real advantage when I switched over to marines and Wolves. What advantage is this you ask? Well the learned ability of getting my units into the position where they could do the most damage and take the least amount of return fire possible. This really is an art and you will find that most experienced gamers win and lose their games in the movement phase. You don't have to be fast to manuever, but that another article.
Back to the knights and how they will fare against the other armies out there...

New Apocalyspe Data Sheet Review
Games Workshop has posted 2 new Blood Angel Data Sheets for Apocalyspe recently and Bad Donkey Gaming is taking a look.
Deathstorm Strike Force
This one I really like, not only do you get the potetial to lay down 4D6 hits along an 18 inch line, hit multiple units. The line of fire remains for any units crossing it in the enemies turn which I think is way cool!
Lucifer Armoured Task Force
As cool as the Deathstorm Strike Force is, the Lucifer Data Sheet is pretty pointless the only real benifit you get is the ability to deep strike land raiders off one another acting like teleport homers of sorts. But who wants to deep strike a land raider that can die by mishaping on other units.

Look what I found...
Adepticon, its a coming
Its Febuary 2nd and adepticon is just right around that corner. I know all of you are finalizing lists, getting your practices games in, and putting the finishing touches on your models. We are all looking forward to that weekend of pure wargamer heaven. With this amp up, we are all hitting the local shops gaming our hearts out trying to hone that list to fine point. We here at Bad Donkey gaming are no different than any of you out there. With six of us going from our local gaming club, the nerves are up and the little army guys' testosterone levels are skyrocketing. The competitive spirit really starts to reach a boiling point with our friends and in anticipation of perhaps winning the gladiator or earning that spot on the US team in the championships.
There really is nothing more fun than this time of year and gearing up for my 4th adepticon has been no different. I'm getting down to those final few models built up for our team list, refining my Dragon Lords for that run to the top spot. Well hopefully anyway. There's lots of fun to be had during that busy weekend in april. Our favorite tournement around here is definetly the team tournament and here is what our force is going to look like:
