Happy St Patrick's day!
I hope you have the correct number of testicles… last time a uni-ball was in that vague area he invaded Poland.
And yes… I know he had two, but WW2 propaganda said otherwise.
It has been well established that the other was kept in the Albert Hall…
Enjoy lads -will check in at times

Prague Open, cool!
Justin just posting his holiday snaps. Enjoy the trip
Sending regards to Lukas Slovak, I saw you in video, have a good play.
Love the gamemat.eu mats and have several of them, could always do with another though 🙂
Man seeing so much people playing in a tournament brings up good memories when I used to go to tournaments regularly. Those were fun times with a lot of cool people.
The gamemat.eu mats are awesome. One of the best purchases I ever made.
looking good guy, i should really get into 40k
Looking forward to the new terrain set!
Thanks for the coverage, guys.
Cheers!
Enjoy your time in Prague. A mat would be fun to have 🙂
The only thing better than a fully painted army on a sweet looking board with kick ass terrain, is sixty fully painted armies on 30 sweet looking boards with kick ass terrain.
This is exciting!
I’ve hurried back from out local 40K tournament so I could continue watching this 🙂
Good stuff as ever guys. Enjoy the weekend, and keep posting!
Hope you packed warm stuff
It’s f***ing freezing here
Last time I’ve been there, it took me two weeks to feel my nose again 🙂
yup all warm and cosy 🙂
Looks like a fun time.
Enjoy Prague! Looks fun
Looking forward to following this. BoW does a great job of blogging these events for those of us stuck at home. And definitely jump on board for the game matt give away.
loving the coverage so far chaps! Keep up the great work, and above all enjoy it!
Great coverage so far as usual guys, enjoy. I might be buying into my first 40K models with the Forgebane box. Undecided between that and Legion right now, money will only go so far this month. But my AoS armys are crying out for a game mat to battle on so this thread is pretty good replacement for a weekender for me 🙂 Fingers crossed.
Awesome coverage you guys!!! Love somo of those armies!!
