Josh dives deep into his recent trip to the capital to attend the one and only CANCON. He played over three days in a huge old world Marathonhammer event.
Not only that but he spilled the beans on a very controversial Cancon secret he has been hiding from his co-hosts.

Ah man, that's embarrassing. I thought they had feigned flight and you pulled them early cause they were gonna die! No, you definitely don't get an overrun from catching a fleeing unit.
can confirm, Josh's tables are the best tables <3
I think I ran into Josh at the Mordheim (at the Ainslie football club). I was dropping in to catch up with an old club mate from the Slayers.
It was Errantry crusade GRAIL knights with the frenzy banner. Not questing knights
great reports dude, we definitely made some mistakes in that last game for sure. the heat and noise were killer.
the drones being in a line was mostly because of something you said about the lance faq, I obviously misunderstood XD I thought it was odd. being hungover and cooking in my own juices didn't help 😛
I only attacked with 4 drones in that first combat (the lance being 120mm wide so I can fit 4x50mm bases in)
I shot 1 knight off with a stand and shoot and then made a ridiculous amount of poison rolls after you did 1 whole wound 😂
their movement was 2 at this stage but they only needed to make a 6 inch charge to reach the questing knights.
In that combat they didn't even attack, the skull chariot and prince killed them to a man.
they then overran into 5 skirmishing archers who failed a fear test and were wiped out easily in your turn… which let me overrun next to the prophetess and kill her in my next turn with a lucky 3w deaths head shot. that let me fly again and not rely on overruns to move.
the Duke was a mistake, I was still ranked up from the last combat and you charged into me and I played them as open order rather than skirmish… my bad, I owe you many beers.
it was the most fun game of the whole event because of how delirious we both were at the end.

I hear Uprising: Adelaide had really good air-conditioning, licenced venue with QR codes on the tables, so you can have your adult beverages brought to your table whilst you play, lots of room between tables, with no tables end to end, 2 food trucks, baristas and the venue kiosk. Only 16 players this year but aiming to expand for next year.
Good stuff. The bit where the Duc slaughtered all those hungry hippos in one go was hilariously horrifying.
Cheers for the callout and details of our game, I had a total blast (hence playing all the way to turn six) even though that dang Illusion caster was a major problem. It was in fact the worst trouble I had with magic over the whole tournament. I wouldn't exactly recommend going with no magic, but it was less punishing than I imagined. You've earned yourself an overdue Patreon signup 😄
I think Josh officially takes the saltiest old world player from Andrew. 20-0 by Teko and leaves mid tournament to play another game altogether 😅
Does Josh not know that the duke in errantry crusade is the one model who isn't impetuous?
Oh nice I met you there! I was also playing Bretonnians and Dave showed me your cool swirly freehand. Didn't realise you had a podcast 😂 seeya next year 🙂
