Jumbos Win Big!
Sep. 25th, 2010 05:13 pmQuite to my surprise, I won a small local DBA tournament today! There were only six players, we had three rounds (instead of the four I had expected), but I somehow managed to pull out a victory in each stage and got a nice wee trophy in the end.
The beautifully painted Tamil Indian army (work of my friend Frank Popecki) has not had the greatest track record so far, but they did very well, crushing and trumpeting (the Elephants) and slicing (the Blades) and filling the enemy with deadly arrows (the Bow) in one battle after another. The last fight was definitely the hardest, but I managed to master my usual predisposition to charge forward in disarray and force my opponent to come to me, which eventually allowed me to break him down in a series of 1 on 2 or 1 on 3 combats.
Rather fun! Kudos to my friend Chris at Huzzah Hobbies for hosting it and to all the chaps who turned up.
