Lessons in Success

350 Point Hordesmachine Tournament Results

Thomas Rolland and I ran our first mixed Warmachine and Hordes tournament today and it's certainly a learning experience. Firstly we now know that we need to kick the hall organisers into action repeatedly before the event; they seemed to think that we were booked for 10-10:30 rather than letting us in at 9:30 so we could set up boards and whatnot. Due to this we started almost one hour behind schedule and caused some confusion about how long each game would last.

There were 4 drop outs but we still had 20 people playing. First place went to Jim (as usual), with Sean coming second and Lewis coming in third and winning the painting prize for his Protectorate models.

Issues I'll have to address for the next tournament is having specified game lengths and timed turns. Also better communication between the 2 Press Gangers is needed during the event; there were a few cases of Thomas and myself contradicting each other on the time left.

Hopefully everyone had a good time overall and we didn't put off anyone turning up to the next tournament. If there's any feedback to be had please feel free to post it as a comment, we're always looking for ways to improve the tournament experience for our players.
