TPM is going to Dragon Con!

It is that time of year again.  Dragon Con is basically the sci-fi/fantasy mecca of the south east.  It grows every year and attracts all sorts of costumed characters.

Sportsmanship Gum - stroking the kitty means no dingy dingy

The myth of sportsmanship gum started long ago when local tournament organizers, in my area, only accepted cash for entry. This was well before debit cards were accepted everywhere.  This was in 2000 or 2001.  I can’t really remember. I was just getting back into the tournament scene after taking a bit of a break after 2nd edition 40k.

By the one and only GBF:
I have been running a squad of Vanguard veterans since BoLScon and they have been an ace for me. With the Descent of Angels (only scatter 1d6 instead of 2d6 plus you can reroll reserves for jump units) you have a unit that is very reliable at assaulting the turn they arrive via deepstrike due to their Heroic Intervention special rule.
