3rd Place: Daniel Reddehase – Death Guard

2nd Place: Joshua Campbell – Necrons

1st Place: Noah Neundorfer – Thousand Sons

Noah’s winning Thousand Sons was jam-packed with multiples of each of their favorite models. The big characters leading were Magnus and Ahriman, two of the (canonically) strongest psykers, along with some great abilities and overall stat lines.

They were followed by three Exalted Sorcerers (two on discs) for even more psykers (giving 4+ invulvns) with solid stat lines across the board. An Infernal Master wraps it up by gifting their units Sustained Hits. Marines start off the troops with three units of Rubrics for durable models with good weapons.

Two units of Tzaangors are cheap glass cannon units that want to make a charge. Two Chaos Spawn are also melee-only models, but their main purpose is wound soaking usually. Lastly, there’s a Mutalith Beast for a larger model for a close-range threat that has some range and even a mortal wound aura for bonus damage output.
