What a fantastic weekend of gaming for the IX th edition of the Equinox tournament. I have not seen a gathering of such spectacular painted armies in a while. Played in good spirit the tournament was relaxed and very enjoyable from the feedback got among the competitors and the Umpiring team.
With the W40k scene growing exponentially here in Auckland and around the country. We will definitely make sure that we have more space at our next few events. Tournaments we hold are there to develop and grow the community. If you get a chance, do come and enjoy a weekend of fun with like minded fellow Wargamers.
We had a very good variety of different codex armies, and that made for some very good competitive matches played throughout the event. It was also encouraging to see a Ork army leading into Day 2 of the competition and bar the final game that army would have been the Champion. So here is the results and congrats to the Victor and also the whole entire field for showing off our hobby to all those spectators in such a good light!
