A letter froooooom America

I love it when you get home to surprise parcels.  A couple of months ago I mailed some of my bits box to one of the guys off the eighth edition for life forum and as a thank you he sent me this little beauty. It’s an Avatars of War model and he even painted it in… Read More A letter froooooom America

Hobby Update – Ungor Raiders

With my first competition game on Friday, I realised I needed to pull my finger out and ensure my entry was fully painted to garner the bonus points for each game. So I present 10 Ungor Raiders. I’ll try and fully finish them before Friday as there are some details I want to do on… Read More Hobby Update – Ungor Raiders

The Dark Tide

In the final post of this series, i’ll take a look at the final competitor in Group A, Luke C and his Dark Elves. Luke has been using Dark Elves for a number of years and I know often attends the Hockley tournament with Dan so will be a tough player to beat. I actually… Read More The Dark Tide

The Green Machine

Following on from the last post, in this one i’ll look at the next member of Group A. Namely Alistair and his Orc and Goblin army. I’ve only ever played Alistair at Kings of War and he showed a frightening ability to learn from previous games and adapt his list and tactics. As such, although… Read More The Green Machine

Master of the Longbeards 

In a series of three posts, I’ll be looking at the army lists of my opponents in Group A of the competition, evaluating the army and then trying to work out how I would win the scenarios in their shoes. Fair warning to readers, this will be quite long, wordy, very few pictures and is… Read More Master of the Longbeards

Hobby update – The herd is close to completion.

Close to completion. Those are words I never thought I’d say. I suppose I should clarify that. Of the Beastmen models I currently own, I have left to paint: 10 Ungor Raiders 2 GW Minotaurs And to both build and paint: 1 Mierce Minotaur Standard 1 Mierce Gor Standard (probably to be used as the bsb).… Read More Hobby update – The herd is close to completion.

SELWG 2017 Warhammer Competition Kicks Off!

As well as the game against Paul on Friday, the draw was also made for the groups in the competition. With a last bit of recruitment on the Friday, I managed to get the numbers up to 16 which allowed 4 groups of 4. The draw was made by the independent adjudicator: Cormac. After the… Read More SELWG 2017 Warhammer Competition Kicks Off!

WHFB – Beastmen vs Skaven

This week I had lined up a game against Paul. He hadn’t played 8th Edition for a few years now but he was one of the club members who had signed up to the competition and so wanted to re-familiarise himself with the rules. I jumped at the chance to have a game and not… Read More WHFB – Beastmen vs Skaven
