Well that’s a lot of Space Marines, Guard, Eldar, and Daemons. If you were hoping to avoid Daemons or soulbursting Eldar this edition you’ll be disappointed. However I am glad to see the Imperial Guard make a better showing this year. And as to be expected it looks like quite a few players dusted off those old Ork models they have laying around. Knights, both heretics and loyalists, also seem to be quite popular this year although I don’t think we saw any double knight teams at least.

There’s a solid 57 teams or so this year. That means a total of 285 players. It’s going to be a big, exciting tournament this year. Good Luck!

NOTE: We are not talking about the specifics of any list out of respect for Team America who will be competing in ETC.
