Hi Guys!Kirby mentioned here about Event Horizon, but Denis aka Loriness who is hosting this event is madly churning out content, FAQ's and other information on his blog, http://kc40k.blogspot.com/.
For those interested in a brief overview of the missions, here goes!
(This is not a full evalutative review, just a quickie).
1850 Points. Centurion is 1750, but will be moving to this points level next time around.

The only issue I personally have with the missions, is that the KP mission is "table or tie", by which I mean that a 4 KP gap is pretty big for most armies. As such, expect to see this mission objective "tied" a lot, and when it's not tied, expect it to have been a very one-sided fight.
Saying that, it's still better than a comp event!
(As a side note, Loriness is further along with his prep than I am, so I commend him on his enthusiasm, and will be quietly stealing some of his ideas... )
