The four collectors must now put legal armies on the table, with points awarded for painting and the best result from their first games. Black Reach supplies large additions for Neil’s Crimson Fists and Fil’s Goffs, while Pete revises his Eldar and Matt adds Huron Blackheart. Their victories and draws reveal the importance of supporting units, protecting scoring troops and remembering objectives rather than concentrating solely on casualties.
