Tournament Honours: Champion 2004, 2002, 2001, 2000, 1999. Runner-up 2003, 2005, 2006. 3rd Place 2007. Best Selected Army 2007, 1999

In the end a very dissapointing Tournament as Brandon and his Chaos forces failed to make a podium appearance for the first time in the ten Tournaments after being blighted by his bogey opponent Andrew Townely. Despite managing to make a comeback to top group A after defeating James Brown, Brandon left the Tournament with nothing.

Pre Tournament Summary: Missed out on the final for the first time last year, and did so in the most pain-staking of fashions after his extra turn move against Andy Townely looked to have won him the game, only for a self inflicted failed break test to send him out. It did mean he found time to add the missing bronze medal to his collection, joining Adam May as the only players to have taken all 3 podium places. Has shown good form outside of the Tournaments and avoids a potentially embarrassing qualifying campaign after grabbing 3rd last year. However his unseeded position could draw himself and James Brown together for what would be an explosive first round group and may present Brandon with the opportunity to stop Brown bettering his fifteen game winning streak record, in what would be a sweet way to cap it off for James! Brandon will be wielding his Night Lord Chaos Space Marines.
