Are Team Events The Best Way To Play? | Warhammer the Old World | Square Based Show
In this episode Rob and Val discuss the many benefits of playing an Old World Tournament with your friends… specifically, a whole team of them. The fellas discuss how Team based events work, ramble through a bit of the proud history of team events, and then go over some highlights from the FIRST OLD WORLD TEAMS event EVER held (that we know of) last week at the TSN Arena in Nottingham.
Val also took a moment to say a few words about his friend Alex Stewart who recently passed away. If you’d like to learn a bit more about him please click here:https://beechwoodottawa.ca/en/services/joseph-alexander-stewart
Also as mentioned there is an effort to raise some money for his family. If you are able and inclined to make a contribution, that can be found here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/alex-stewart
