On another note, when are you available to play said games?

Yeah i did ok. Came 92/140 overall. But most importantly, i had a lot of fun and made a few friends. (There were two people i didn't like, the others were great)

Lost my first one because my opponent was slow and we only got to turn 3. I only just made an assault.
Second one i lost, but only just. His marines were 0.25" out of assault range so i could take the objective (his only unit left compared to my whole army).
Won the 3rd on a land slide. Tabled him.
Lost the next one due to an annoying thunderfire cannon.
Lost the 5th because of bad dice/good rolls from him. But he also had a thunderfire cannon.
And the last one was so much fun, but i didn't realise the rules for blood talons were so bad. Multi combat slowed me down and he chewed through my guys.

So the moral of this story was, thunderfire cannons rape swarm lists, and i should have taken less models. Already started planning my next list after i found some nice scibor minis. Count as blood angels it is.

I bet the blood angel guy was drooling when he saw your list, so many attacks coming from the blender dreads.

With most tourneys dropping the 'GW only rule' due to completely pulled prize support and reduced WD coverage, inc tourney dates and locations other companys minis are being allowed,  still a good idea to pm the TO though first.

That is no slouch effort for an event like Arcanacon, congrats!!  How did everyone else go?

The others did ok. Most notably was Machen who came dead last, winning himself the decapitated teddy bear's head. (It was actually a teddy cthulhu.) Congrats to Chosen of Sanguinius and Machen on their first ARC, and i hope you guys are coming again next year.

I think its a good idea, but i think we should have a few more than 3 people go.

Everyone should get an army painted for next year, and please no one try and paint your army in 2 weeks like i did this year. Almost killed me. lol. Thanks for the help maudy and carson!

Haha, but I had fun helping paint. It was nice sitting around and talking ♥♥♥♥ while I painted. :P Plus, we did get pretty good perks, those dinners where yum yum in my yum yum. :D

I'll be taking my Circle list next year. I've now got a whole year to paint it Bwahahaha.
