I apologize about taking so long to get a post up following the conclusion of yesterday's very fun and successful Revival! I had 120 pictures to download, sort through, and then upload to Photobucket. Sheesh! That took a while! Anyways, here is a list of the players and what faction there were fielding. Brian Sisters Micah Icingstead Jason Icingstead Joe Crusaders Dawn Elves Paul Reptus Jay Crusaders Kim Necropolis There were three hard fought rounds for each player. At the end, we had one 3-0 player, and alas, that meant one 0-3 player as well. I also had a local gentleman by the name of Randy come in to be an independent painting judge. Most people know my skill with judging a painting contest. "Wow! That guy has cool armor! He wins! No wait! This guy has even COOLER armor! He wins!" LMAO! Randy was a much better choice. I am sure you want to know who came where and got what prizes. FINE! Mister Brian flew all of the way to Tulsa from North Carolina to particpate and was rewarded with First Place! He won a really sweet dragon handled dagger that had "2012 Tulsa Warlord Revival Master" engraved on the blade. Of course, since he flew here, he was not able to take it with him. I told him I would mail it to him. We'll see. Poor Joe came in Last Place at 0-3. I had ordered a new set of d10s two weeks ago that I had planned to give to the player who came in Last Place. Wouldn't you know it that they HAVEN'T shown up yet? Thankfully Joe is local so I will give him his new dice probably this week! Thank you Joe for being patient! Randy determined that Dawn was a very close Second Place in the painting contest, and so he donated a new set of painting brushes as the prize. Randy then said that Jason took First Place in the painting contest, and I rewarded him with a $25 Reaper gift certificate. Of course, Jason owns like every Reaper model, so hurry up Reaper peeps and make more models for Jason to spend his certificate on! LOL! A quick note about the pictures before I put in the link. You will notice that some of the games have more pictures in them than others. This is not because I found those games "unexciting" (not at least that I will admit in public ), but due to the nature of Warlord and army design, some games just finished faster than others. So, I had more opportunities to take pictures of those games than those devilishly fast players! Also, while I attempted to keep tabs on how fast a game was going, sometimes one ended before I noticed quickly enough so I didn't quite get a picture of what was left on the table at the end. I apologize about that. Anyways, here is the link to the pictures. If it doesn't work, please let me know. They should be set to public. http://s1267.photobu...lord%20Revival/ As I said, a fun time was had by all! I know I was already hitting up the Tulsans for meeting up on Thursdays to throw down some more Warlord! Hint hint. Because this was such a fun event, I plan on making this an annual thing in January! The actual weekend to be chosen in January can be debated (maybe the 3rd or 4th weekend?), but I want everyone to keep it on the back of their minds and start penciling in their vacation requests for next year! I want it to grow bigger and better every year! Let's keep it coming! Wild Bill2 points

I don't have this kit, but Ruddy Brown is a reddish brown color. Just add a little white to some to see what I mean. You can mix the Ruddy Brown with the Rosy Skin from the set to get a warm color suitable for the hair. Add a touch of Rosy Skin for the basecoat color, and then progressively add more for the highlights. The dwarf paint job itself seems to have a little touch of auburn or orange to the hair, which is not possible with Ruddy Brown and fleshtone. If you have the red from set #1 and access to some yellow you can mix up an orange to add to the Ruddy Brown or use as a wash.1 point

I don't want to start a flame war, but after hanging out at my local GW store for the last year or so, I've started to get the feeling that GW fanboys have a lot in common with battered spouses. Of all the RPG/wargame companies that have ever existed, GW has far and way the most loathesome business practices, but the fanboys will go into the most incredible displays of cognitive dissonance to explain why GW isn't screwing them over with their polices. They defend the company, but all I hear is "He hits me because he loves me!"1 point
