I agree with Krieger...for example I think my score was torpedoed by two things: I think I was given low sports scores because my opponents didn't like losing, I joked with people, told stories, and I am very lenient on what opponents do (i.e forgetting to move or shoot etc). I played Chaos Dwarves, so I ran only 3 war machines all different (not double magma cannons), no lore of hashut, and no bull centaur character. My book is limited in what I can take.... dwarves and more dwarves (yes I even took some hobgoblins). Second is paint, I know that everyone likes bright, smooth blended armies that snap the eye, but that is not what CD are. I would be interested to see my complete paint score and whether the judges are experienced enough to recognize that the armor on my dwarves has no less than 3 different tones and 4 weathering pigments (7 steps). Yes they look dirty, it's intentional. Appears to be alot of subjective-ness in final standings....
All that being said....in the end I had a blast, met some great people and got to roll lots of dice! That's a win! and the OFCC crew were friendly, and professional.
