KGKMAI For 2011 and 2012

As Ive stated in a couple of other posts we run a tournament every 3 months at my house. It goes by various names but usually something like "Kooinda Gaming Klub Multi Annual Invitational Klash". In 2012 it was the Battle box bash and in 2011 it was just whatever you liked. In 2013 it will be a slow growth tourney.

Here are a few pics from some of the tourneys. The deal with the trophies was it must not cost over $5 and it shouldnt take more than 2 hours to build. Also the winner had to supply the next trophy. Well that didnt always happen so I had to fill in and build a few extra trophies. Also as time went on we added more trophies to the mix to the point we will now have a trophy for the best trophy and the best trophy is eligable for the best trophy award.

Anyway in some sort of order here are some of the previous winners.

This was from our first tourney. As you can see I was reluctant to give up this trophey. The skull cost $2 and the backing board about $1.50. It took me nearly half an hour to paint this one up. I think the date was around mid 2011 as I still have hair. I will put more details about the tourney in here once I get them.


You get a better look at it here. Thats Matt_Man giving the trophy to Aido.


This is the second tourney we had. Must have been before Nov 11 as well as I still have hair so I would guess Sep 11. Shags won this with a Cygnar shooty army. I think this one was 50pts two lists. Aido made this trophy mostly from DAS and a $1.50 backing board. He nearly went over the 2 hour build time tho.

Must have missed a tourney here cause thats Matt-Man handing a trophy to Aido. So it must be in April 2012. That would mean Matt_Man won the tourney in January. Once again the trophy being made by matt-man was well within the $5, 2 hour limit. I think he was building it during the tourney.

So this is the Tourney we ran in November 2012. It was supposed to be a 50 point battle box bash but we only had 2 people who could pull together a 50 point army (Hence changing the rules for 2012) Instead it was a 50 point two list bash. We also introduced a few extra trophies. This one was man of the Match. For the Caster/solo/jack who did the most boxes worth of damage. I believe it was beast 09 who matt picked for this honour.


This one is for the Slayer trophy. For the most amount of army points destroyed by a player. Nathan was playing Ret and had a death cricket. I call shenanigans.


Ok Im getting a bit confussed with all these new trophies but I think this is the Assasin award for the fastest caster kill. It was something over an hour so not going to set any records. You will notice Eddie has photo bombed every picture. There were over 50 photos taken at this tourney and he bombed every one of them. Thats what I call commitment. I think he was neglected as a child.


Ok this one is called the Lemon award. Its for the first loser cause as we all know second is the first of the losers. And how embarasment who we all lost to.


Ok I dont know how this happened. Really a scar-fait wearing Par-fait. I blame the rum myself.

We also played a doubles tourney in December. I even managed to register it on wanking rankings. We had 7 players but as Eddie was registered as both Eddie C and Eddie T on the ranking site he played as two players. Alot of people thought this would be to powerful but in the end he was beaten by the combined forces of Aido with Retribution and Kort with Legion. It was a good day but we have banned rum drinking at tourneys from now on. Way to aggressive.


This is actually the Slayer award as they combined killed nearly twice as many points as anyone else. Jaybo was making the first place which I dont belive he has finished yet (Really going over the two hour limit on this one)

Anyway next year I hope to take more pics of the games and do a few battle reports as well as Caster/solo/unit/jack analysis.

Till  next time have a great 2012.
