I was the 'spare' player on the first day so didn't have a lot of time to take photos.

In a particularly choice moment from the first game, my Lunokhod manages to take control of two Mines, move forwards and survive a flamethrower hit from Toni Makayana (proxied) while snatching a third enemy Mine. My Hacker then immobilised the TAG through the Lunokhod's Repeater, just in time for the Chimera and Pupniks to arrive...

Sunday! Harry from Warmill took my place as spare player, allowing me more time to take photos and organise.

 

We changed the tables around a bit so that anyone who ended up on the same table again wouldn't be fighting over the exact same terrain.

A couple of memorable game moments:

We then shifted the tables again for the final round as each table needed an objective room in the middle.

Ah, the babbling sound of running water!Ah, the babbling sound of running water!      

That last one turned out to contain a particularly vicious pair of Druze guards, they took out more of Matt's Ariadna than his opponent did!

All the tables.All the tables. Match-ups.Match-ups.

Help, help, I'm being suppressed!Help, help, I'm being suppressed!
