The overall scores from GottaCon are up on the Chaotic Order forum. How did the Rabbit Hole do?
It seems that all good things come to an end. Sadly, due to my brain exploding, I did not get too many pictures from Sunday. But here is a shot of Jason Dyer's Inquisition defending Death Mountain. His with-hunters are a very nice looking army, and combined with being an excellent player, I'm sure it stayed in Imperial hands.
As far as my games went, the Unassyn took down many marines but failed to take any victories. The first game was against the Ultramarines, a very enjoyable game with a great player, and a high body count. The second game of the day saw my Eldar fighting Chaos Marines, a game that saw more wacky dice rolls than the rest of the weekend. The farseer exploded first turn, the autarch called it quits mid game and went home, my guardians charged berserkers and killed them, and the war walkers failed to shoot down a defiler (killing it in close combat). There was much wtfing and laughter.

I would like to thank this man, for inviting me (and the Rabbit Hole's terrain) to GottaCon, here he is terraforming. This was probally the easiest part if his weekend, as he is the (most high) coordinator of the 40k, Fantasy and LoTR tournaments. The logistics of organizing 100 wargamers must be nuts, so cheers to his efforts!
Here is a look at some of the tables that will host our little war.
Had the chance to play a pick-up game against Tau on the ork table, not a mon-keigh for miles.
Jungle/crash site...
Paul's partly-overgrown Imperial ruins.
The altar to the Scheming Godzilla.
The eldar table made it....
...as did the tyranid's...
...and of course Death Mountain.
Samalander's jungle now spans five tables!
The apocalypse battle was loud and rowdy, and then I was derailed by Monsterocalypse and gawking at models.
When things got too quiet we started hunting zombies...mmmmmm
The next day the eldar were put to work as the tournament began. First game, Iron Hands.
It was a great game, my walkers even saw some combat (lol), ended with a draw.
The second game was against the witch-hunters, who brought nine immolators. Sadly, my elves were crispy...
We did deal a satisfying amount of damage to each other, but the eldar lost the squig. Mind you, we don't have much of an appetite for squigs.
Third game was on the church table (one of mine), defending it against the Khorne-convoy. I think my eldar were offended, seeing tanks of the blood god on Rabbit Hole road, they knocked out the Land Raider first turn. After an epic battle between Kharn and Jaher, the game was lost due to a fluffy move.
The doors open in eight hours. Varnish is drying. Packing begins. Above you will see my survival kit. Clockwise from the cup; Magic cards, Zombies!!!, bag of d6's and templates, 40k rules, Pocky!, tWo, emergency brushes, bits to be glued back onto terrain, mini medic (superglue), black acrylic, bag of polyhedrons. Not shown is all the coffee and munchies to fuel this rampage.
Loading of the Black Box. The case is loaded with the Unassyn, and Dice Bag's paintcomp entries.
And finally, Oden Primary, a mountain of terrain with a mountain on top.
