Instead of going to the battle reports next (which are a lot of work to type up!), I am going to skip ahead to a few of the awards. The Two Awards as it were – the ones that I won. 🙂

First Up – I won Best Table for the Mordor Lava Board

Here is a shot of it set up in my dining room. This is basically how it looked at the tournament. Unfortunately I didn’t take any pictures at the tournament. However, there are a bunch more pictures of both the finished board and works in progress in my Wargames Terrain Slideshow on Flickr.

Secondly – I won Best Calvary Sized Model in the Durin’s Axe painting competition for my Giant Eagle model. I painted this a while ago, but it is the only good model that I have finished. I have been concentrating on Mordor – both the terrain and my army for a while now.

So each of these awards came with a nice plaque and a LotR box set. I ended up getting an Army of the Dead box set and an Uruk-hai Scouts box set.  Getting free mini is awesome – but it doesn’t get me any closer to actually reducing the number of minis that I need to paint!
