BoLSGamesCon Mirror Match Tournament Report (with pictures!)

Hello all, how's it all going?  Today I'm writing some (somewhat brief) battle reports for the Mirror Match tournament that I played on Friday at BoLSGamesCon.  It was a fun time, as it has always been in Austin- I'll give feedback on the tournament itself a little bit later in this post.

It's kind of a shorter report, but mostly complete and with lots of pictures- you'll see.

Now, for those of you who don't know what the Mirror Match tournament is, I'll give you a quick run-down:

• Everyone had the same 1500 point Codex: Space Marines list
• Every single table had nearly the exact same terrain
• We used missions out of the book, nothing fancy or necessarily hard to accomplish at all

Essentially, the tournament is supposed to be able to prove who the best 'pure player' is, since the boards are all the same, as are the lists.

Here's the list everyone used:

Weekly Battle Report #12: Mirror Match Playtest (with pictures!)

Hey there folks!  How's it going?  Now that school is out, and summer school is in (lots more reading every night, though not as many 10-page papers due during finals week), I have some time to dedicate to Yon Blog.

Today, I wanted to give you a battle report that showcases a mirror match game I played with a friend of mine the other day.  What is this madness, you ask?  It's a BoLSCON event, where every single player in the tournament has the exact same 1500 point list, and you square off in order to find the theoretical best 'pure' player, since all lists are 'equal'.
