More Wheel of Chaos ramblings
So it seems that Khorne is not happy. He offered what he thought was a very fair reward for devotion to him, yet only 13 teams stepped forward. Instantly he demanded blood, expecting his champion to be soaked in not only his enemies blood, but also their own. 8 were to battle for the right to be called 'Champion'. Then Khorne cast his eye over the final 5, Realizing that these weak teams will also offer blood for the blood god, he set them onto each other.

Slaanesh, meanwhile, was overjoyed at the worshiping ritual. Though many had mocked the gift offered they still turned out in droves for the right to earn it. But slaanesh wanted a worthy champion, only the best of the best, so they ordered the mightiest 4 teams to play for the privilege. Another 16 could try to earn Slaanesh's favour, the rest were cast aside by the god, deemed unworthy.

Only Tzeentch had more offers of adoration than Slaanesh. He too decided that 4 should fight for the right to champion him. 16 more again scrambled to earn his favour, leaving 13 weeping at their abandonment.

That left only Nurgle. He worried that rot would set in too soon amongst champions, so he chose 8 to represent him, hoping that at least 1 could last. Again another 16 fought amoung themselves for his favour.

(so it seems that shadowing is more popular than frenzy and FA, shows that the metagaming side of the cup worked well)

Why o why didn't I go for Khorne!

Love the metagaming strategies :D

Yeah, I expected Khorne to be a little more hotly contested, and attract most of the ogre teams in the tourney. Tzeentch being the big one was no surprise though, he clearly offered the best prize (god of hope and all, suckering more people in...)

The Slaanesh thing is funny. I figured you might get the human, elf, and skaven teams in there, since they can, you know, USE shadowing. It's clearly the weakest gift (by a large margin) and apparently everyone figured it would be soft.

As for my team, I brought woodies, and I'm the only non-basher in the Slaanesh rabble (there's another in the mix for champion), so at least I just have to live and score ;)
