40K is one of the popular systems played at SELWG.
In order to add a little meaning to the games, we run a challenge competition usually on an annual basis. The current challenge started from December 2011.
This will take the following format. We have four leagues of five players. League points are awarded as one for a drawn game, and three for a win. The highest two players in each league will go through to the knock out stages. In case of a tie, victory points scored will be used as a tie breaker. There will be a draw when the leagues have been concluded for the quarter finals and then the semi finals. In the quarter finals, people will not play a person from the same league that they were in.

Dear all,
Banished as I was to Spotsylvania, Dalmatia or anywhere else equally spotty, I was unable to see any of the games at the club on Friday. I have had reports in about three games, although the details are sketchy on one of them. The details are contained in the two posts below.

There has been a good take up for the competition. A good mix of armies have been entered. There is a four way tie for the most popular, with Grey Knights, Codex Marines, Necrons and Orks all gatting three entries. Is this the "latest codex" fever? No chaos space marines or Chaos Daemon armies, although, lets face it, these arent the strongest armies and I know I am fed up have having my Daemons hung out to dry by Grey Knights. Interesting to see a Tau army arriving – will this be a resurgence for them? A few variant codex marine armies are showing up, with Blood Angels, Dark Angels and Space Wolves making an appearance. A couple of Tyranid armies, and a single Dark Eldar and Imperial Guard round out the mix.
