Leman Russ Demolisher Leman Russ DemolisherWhen you simply have to crack open a bastion or annihilate every enemy within range, you need the awesome firepower of the Leman Russ Demolisher.

GW: 2009 ‘Ard Boyz Season

Here we are, at the onset of the 2009 ‘Ard Boyz Season and the question still stands, “Who is the best 40k player in North America?” Over 5,000 people raised their hand last year, thinking they had the marbles, but only one player remained standing after the dust settled. Gareth Hunt brought the thunder with his Chaos Demons army and earned the right to call himself an ‘Ard Boy!

Think you can take the prize? Once again, you’ll have to PROVE IT!

Fight your way through the locals in the Preliminaries on July 11th. This round will be held at Independent Retailers all over the country.

Players who end up in the top three will be invited to the Semifinals held in select locations on August 8th. The winner of the Semifinal will get a 2,500 point army of the race of their choice and the 2nd and 3rd place winners will receive generous online vouchers for our Web Store. These top three Semifinalists will be eligible to attend the Finals, which will be held on September 19th.

At the main event, players will compete for buckets of prizes, but more importantly, they will fight for the right to call themselves ‘Ard Boys. So who will be the best this year? Are you pansies going to let a bunch of Warp-spawned filth take the title again or do you think you can wade through the Nob Bikers, Lash Princes,Thunderhammer Terminators and Carnifexes to claim victory?
