TSC WHFB Results Correction
30-8-11
Due to a number of factors, a match result in Round 3 of the TSC Warhammer Fantasy Battles was incorrectly reported, and not picked up properly during data entry.

This has the unfortunate result of the rightful winner of the WHFB Tournament not getting their chance in the spotlight, and the recognition for such, that they deserved.

Congratulations should go to Kaleb Telcher and his Vampire Counts army, who got a (corrected) battle score of 80 points, and took out Best Overall and Best General!

Apologies for the confusion and inconvenience. This is obviously an undesirable situation that we do everything we can to avoid.

Check out the corrected results here.
