Hey guys, I know it’s been awhile since we’ve had a battle report, so I’ve decided to start back up again with a bang! Today at 2pm EST I’ll be playing against my friend Jack and his boogeyman list: Knights/IG/Marines! I’ll be using a list I’m considering for the Nova Invitational consisting of Eldar/Dark Eldar/Ynari.
For those of you who don’t know what The Nova Invitational is it’s a 32 person invite only premier competitive 40k event. Each player is seeded based on a panel of judges, and then put into a bracket. You can see the bracket, the factions selected by each player and even make your own predictions here. Nearly half the field is bringing Knights + IG + Other ally in some variation, so that’s certainly the list to beat.
The game will be live streamed today August 12 at 2pm EST on Nights at the Game Table PRO. If you’d like to become a PRO and gain access to hours of classes on competitive 40k, weekly meta analyses, and unlimited list help and personal calls you can sign up here!
