Just a quick update for those interested in the Flames of War tournament we posted earlier. I've just been informed that this tournament has been pushed back three weeks to October 18th. This has been updated on our events calendar at the bottom of our site, but I figured I'd let everyone know as well.
Who's planning on attending from Legio?

Glory and Honour!!!
That was one frantic Hobby Nite. I had to finish painting both map boards for the Arenxis Minoris Campaign. One only had black prime, the other had basic drybrush and a river done. So, it was total focus, heads down, paintbrushes brandished, and furious painting was to be had. But all was well, and by the end of Hobby Nite, both maps were ready for battle. My sincere thanks to Daniel, who came to visit Legio for the first time, and couldn't help himself and just had to have a go at painting the maps. He did a great job with the green continent, and we are most grateful.
And I know Jeff, Ivan and Iqbal at the other hobby table had a glorious evening too. Jeff actually finished basecoating 14 (fourteen) models in the space of just one Hobby Nite. That's a lot of paint. Ivan finally got the ball rolling with his painting, and I truly look forward to seeing the models ready. Iqbal's heavily converted Chaos Rhino was finally primed, and I had a peek of his recently-turned Obliterator models - nice job. I won't reveal much more until he's ready to show all (which is next Hobby Nite ... lol).
And while the 6th Pzgdr rested in their figure case, there was much dice rolling to be had. I missed out most of the action (due to the aforementioned paintjob), but I did see Alvin's Chaos take on Iz' Orks on the city table. And later in the night, Iz' truly scary Orks were seen giving Khairul's Saim Hann a severe beating. I also noticed for the first time that the Saim Hann army has kustom tokens made to represent the psychic powers of the Seer Council. Nice.
I know Doc, Peter, Arzmi, Rizal, Faizal, Jin and a bunch of others were on hand with their armies, but I did miss out on the action. Perhaps some of you can update us on some of the highlights. And I almost forgot - it was the Hobby Nite after Raya, and the guys brought in all kinds of food and drink for all to partake, so there was much merriment to be had amidst the din of battle and heavy metal.
I lurv Hobby Nite! And next week, the kick-off of the League AND the campaign!

40K Tourney Rescheduled to Nov 14th
Hola folks!
Most of you probably already know this, but the 40K "Inquisition Wars" tournament originally scheduled for Nov 7th has been moved back one week to Nov 14th. Please adjust your hobby calendars, schedules, and travel arrangements accordingly.
I've also updated the rules pack with this date change, as well as a clarification that we are definitely using the NEW Space Wolves codex for the tournament, should you choose to play that army. It will be released Oct 3rd, just before our 'codex cutoff'! Just click on the ad banner up top to get this new pack, or the link on the right.
Also, don't forget that registration begins October 1st, and slots will be given on a first come, first served basis as described in the rules pack. We fully expect this tournament to sell out, so I urge everyone who wants to play to not procrastinate and get your submission done on opening day...
Cheers
Jeff
