Happy new year Warmahordesers! I hope your Cryxymas Blight Pudding
was delicious, and your Longest Night was worth a heck of a party!

Warmachine and Hordes has finally hit the book of faces for
Australia! Join up using the link above, and get involved in
discussion, painting pics, and events from across our grand isle!
Masters 2012
http://www.wargamerau.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=124354
The only Masters event for Australia in 2012 will be at Arcanacon in
January! Hit the link here to get some details, but rest assured the
AU community will be coming together en force to bring you a truly
masterful
event. Unfortunately clashing with CanCon, the Masters at Arc is the
premier Privateer Press endorsed event for 2012 competitive play in
the country, so if you're serious you'll start organisingyourself
now.
CanCon 2012
http://www.wargamerau.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=120805
The toughest decision of a Warmachine/Hordes' gaming holidayy in 2012
will be that of deciding between Arc and CanCon. While Arc will have
the Masters, CanCon is shaping up as a truly spectacular event.
Heralding the
return of long abroad PG Jyggdrasil, CanCon will have some truly
unique and fantastic events, and is a massive con with board games,
other wargamers, and what I hear is a truly epic vendor area. Study
some forum threads,
read some tea leaves, or flip a coin if need be - but get your tickets
and accomodation sorted now if you're going to CanCon! ***UPDATE***
Tickets have sold out for the main event at 64 players, but there's
always drop outs and other side events to get into, get involved!
Warcast
http://www.warcastonline.com/
A bunch of our eastern seaboard players, including PG CheatyMcShane
and the King of all worldwide Warmachine Mr James Moorhouse, have
brought together a brand new podcast! They're leaning a little on
the
legion side at the moment, but don't let that fool you, it's well
worth a listen and subscription on iTunes! Production values have
skyrocketed, sponsors have leaped aboard like Kromac against an
unprotected pNemo, and "Ask Warcast" continues to give us valuable
insights!

The Oz Super Series has come to an end in a fantastic event of nail
biting action! Congratulatiosn to James Kerr-Reeve, past Nationals

coming soon around the nation, including sleepy ol' Adelaide.

FINAL WORD
I look forward to seeing some familiar and unfamiliar faces on the
facebook group as we launch into a new year of Warmachine and Hordes.
I hope everyone has a fantastic time at CanCon and Arcanacon, it's
looking like CanCon is going to blow the competition out of the water
and claim the title fresh from Focused and Furious for the most recent
largest event, but Masters at Arcanacon should still be fun and I'll
see any of you there that make it.
As always, PLAY LIKE YOU'VE GOT A PAIR.

Terry Masson
