Waldo's Weekly - A Wyrd Look Back at Adepticon

[Kyle]

Hey Wyrdos,

This week, Waldo’s been a little more sluggish than normal. When we asked him what was wrong, he said that he’ll never have a stomach cake again.

So, while we wish we could erase that visual from our minds forever, let’s take a look back and this past weekend to see all the fun we had at Adepticon!

It’s been too long since we’ve been flipping cards (and tables) in the Chicago area, so it felt incredible to be back in the area and celebrate all things miniature wargaming with our incredible community. And it seems like you were all hungry for competition, because things really heated up this time around!

Make sure to check out the news post on the Wyrd website for a gallery of the events and tables!

During Henchman Hardcore, Andre D. from Texas walked away with a win with a Kiya-led Explorer’s Society crew. Luke E. from Nebraska came in 2nd with Thoon leading the way for his Neverborn. And Bryan B. from Texas brought his Outcasts and Montressor to come in 3rd. 

For the big tournament, Landon S. represented the Illinois community and the Ten Thunders with the title versions of Yan Lo and Lynch throughout. David L. followed closely behind in 2nd place, thanks to Arcanists and the title versions of Mei Feng and Hoffman. And, finally, Andre. D made Texas proud again with the title version of McCabe and the Ten Thunders throughout the entire event. 

Congratulations to all the winners and participants during all our events! 

A special thank you goes out to Brandon L. for running our events in spectacular fashion, Sean O. for providing us with beautiful terrain, and all of our volunteers for helping introduce newcomers to our games!

For more details on the events, keep an eye out for Brandon’s post on A Wyrd Place soon! 

Now that we’re home after back-to-back conventions, it’s time for us to take a short nap before we get back into the swing of things. 

We’ll see you next week!
