Escaping back to fantasy

Month: June 2016

The Ogre Conundrum

The final of the 3 lists in my group is Stevie’s Ogre Kingdoms. At first glance there is nothing out of the ordinary in his list. So what’s in it? Char’s Slaughtermaster – GW + Talisman of Preservation (lore of Maw) Bruiser – BSB – GW + Crown of Command Hunter + AHW + Armour… Read More The Ogre Conundrum

The endless hordes

As I stated before I guessed Joe would be packing the standard blender. Imagine my surprise when I saw no vampires at all in his list! So what was in his list? Chars Necromancer – Lvl4 – Nightshroud + Talisman of preservation (4++) + lore of vamps Necro’ – lvl 2 – Master of Dead +… Read More The endless hordes

SELWG 2016 whfb tournament – stage 1 groups

Well the 1st stage groups have been drawn and I was placed in the 3rd group entitled ‘Kroak’. What do I know about my opponents? Of Joe and Stevie – very little as I have never played them before. For Joe I could guess a blender, Grave guard, Terrorgeist and Stevie – stubborn gutstar, mounted… Read More SELWG 2016 whfb tournament – stage 1 groups

Dwarves vs Daemons – SELWG comp practice game 1 – part 2

Scenario We agreed to follow all the variables of the comp rules, so the first thing to roll was the scenario: We rolled – Take and Hold. This is played as per Battle of the Pass (so lengthways on the table) but differed in so far as, victory goes to the general with the most… Read More Dwarves vs Daemons – SELWG comp practice game 1 – part 2

Dwarves vs Daemons – SELWG comp practice game 1 – part 1

So on Friday I had a chance to play a warm up game against Neil Robin’s Daemons. I regard Neil as one of the better players at the club. Two years ago he won both the 40k and WHFB (with Nurgle daemons) comps and last year he was semi finalist in the whfb (with Lizards)  and… Read More Dwarves vs Daemons – SELWG comp practice game 1 – part 1

Creation of the Throng

  So with the army choice made, it just remained to pick the style of army and troops to sally forth and strike out the grudges. Style of army?? But you’re playing Dwarves…. Yes I know. Gunline, gunline, gunline. However, due to the comp rules it limits the warmachines. Of particular note is the comp counts… Read More Creation of the Throng

To dwarf or not to dwarf…

So with the tournament looming large, I have a decision to make; what army do I take? There are 3 primary contenders and a few secondary possibilities. So what are the options? Dwarves – The throng of Knoffles of Karak Silvertop. Pros: Have all the toys, predominately painted, have played quite a bit with them… Read More To dwarf or not to dwarf…
