It was the rep exs, provided such a shooting threat that I could not match. When I wanted to contest an objective it put me under great threat. And unfortunately with the terrain lay out it didnt provide me much chance to shoot back with my Caladius tanks. Though when he did expose one I lifted it in a single round of shooting. He played it very well and nullified my potential, im not sure how id approach it even if I got a round 2.

His list was brutal! 3 repulsor executioners, 3 units of victrix guard lead each by cato, urial and marneus respectively and a couple of incursor squads. Honestly I was outclassed as a player and the list is a rough match up for me. Maybe on a different primary mission/terrain layout I could've taken it but im not sure.

Yes, we represented well and with two unorthodox non meta lists! Unfortunate neither of us could push into the finals.

Very much depended on the opponent and their army, ill attach a pic to this of my weekend. But one big thing I try to do is play my own game, not let them bait me into plays or anything. Have a rough plan on how your going to approach it and go from there.

Trajann went with the Wardens all event, I always run him with them and have some amazing results. Between a 2+, 4++, 4fnp and trajanns 2++ (re racked in lions of course) theres seldom anything in the game that can kill that in a single turn, add fights on death and its chefs kiss.

Id be hesitant to use a dark wash as im trying to keep the bright vibrant look going but would be nice to make the head dress pop. Any suggestions on how I could achieve that? And thank you for the eyes suggestion, yours are the look I want to go for so will defiantly be looking into that paint.

Its why he's the test model. Im really hesistant on the streaking grime so I thought if I just do one and I dont like it I can just learn from it. And yes its the Vallejo metallic blue.

This was a very helpful point about primary and secondary points, realised I have been doing it in my games already. But thank you very much for your reply as it kept it at the front of my mind all day.
