1750 point Tournament.

My local FLGS, Astral Games, hosted a 1750pt 40K Tournament on August 1st. Once again the tournament was very well run and had some interesting scenarios.

Winners:
1st Place - Mitch (Orks)
2nd Place - Luke (Chaos Space Marines)
3rd Place - Me... (Eldar) will post list later.

I believe that this was the fourth consecutive tournament win for Mitch's Orks mob... including the 'ard Boyz qualifying event.

I took more pictures than this, however without the flash they got pretty blurry... so here are a couple of the pictures from the event that mostly came out ok.
