I actually like pretty much anyone French I’ve ever known.  My favorites are the boys that run the Iron Dream Tournament.  This year, #5, included a great WarEngine tournament that’s only flaw would be the limitation of five participants.  Would there could have been more!

The Miniatures Page has documented Day One of the IDT WarEngine tournament complete with lots of photos of the figures.  There’s not a DemonBlade figure to be found amongst them!
