Which means it should hopefully come up in the next GW online newsletter. -------------------- War is not about who is right, but who is left.

Other than that, they would probably be focusing on Wotr models and units as opposed to stuff for the SBG. -------------------- 2010: 1st Unicon WoTR (Dwarves), 1st Narsil WoTR (Dwarves), 3rd Narsil LoTR (Dwarves), 4th Unicon LoTR (Dwarves). 2011: 3rd Narsil LoTR (Lothlorien), 4th Minimize LoTR (Galadhrim), 4th Narsil WoTR (Dwarves). 2012: 1st CoTT LoTR (Minas Tirith), 1st Narsil LoTR Sydney (Isengard), 2nd Minimize LoTR (Isengard), 3rd Conflict LoTR (Mirkwood), Best Army/Players Choice Minimize LoTR (Isengard), Best Army/Players Choice Conflict LoTR (Mirkwood) 2013: 1st Minimize LoTR (Mordor) 2nd CoTT LoTR (Eregion and Rivendell), 3rd Grand Alliance Doubles LoTR (Minas Tirith), 5th Arcanacon LoTR (Isengard), Best Army/Players Choice Minimise LoTR (Mordor) Best Sports Arcanacon LoTR (Isengard) Current Project: Mordor
