Temple Guard Captain

 Pretty badass temple guard captain, if I'm this productive every time we play homam I might actually finish a full unit for once.

8th is actually still really fun

So I got to game a bunch this weekend and I want to rub it in, so here I am on the blog. I visited Wooster in the big smoke, we gave Age of Shitmar a try, then proceeded to play 3 games of 8th ed. 

This was my first foray into the realm of Shitmar, as much as I wanted it to be really good for reasons I couldn't see, it blew turbo space chunks compared to 8th. We did Lizardmen vs Chaos and I lost horribly. Wooster summed it up rather well afterwards, it feels more like table top mtg than warhammer. Apart from the fact that I lost, it wasn't a particularly shitty game (if you don't compare it to 8th) but it also wasn't a game that I would actively try to play. Games Workshop must have somehow thought that the fantasy community was longing to play warmachine. Anyways we concluded that 7th and 8th edition fantasy will provide years of entertainment at least for playing each other. 

Now onto the good stuff, 3 whole games of 8th ed with pictures.

So the first game was my Slann/Carnosaur double lord list VS Woosters demon prince slaughter orgy list.

Got these bros finished last night while getting a skype strip tease from Jakers.

DBA and Hold the Line

Howdy people!

This weekend Darkster and I got up to some gaming. In total we played three games of warhammer, 3 of DBA, and an awesome demo of a pike and shot game called Might of Arms.

My newly completed early Mycenaeans( I.18 I believe), with camp and ZOC marker.

Team Tournament

I also hit up this camhammer team tournament in Cambridge. I didn't know my teammates, and I even failed to get Molgrimmar in. I roomed with Joe, right beside beer town and all seemed well. Turns out beer town doesn't serve pitchers, but I guess good thing because Joe got pretty vomity, and we had a pretty tame weekend.

The team had chaos, skaven, and orcs, with me playing wood elves. 2400 points, the usual army with a minor tweak. I took a sniper character in place of 5 waywatchers and it was entirely a mistake.

Myself, Andrew w/ orcs, Joe w/ chaos, and Josh w/ skaven.

The Warmasters' Challenge Team Tournament

Hey guys! Long time no post for me, unfortunately.

I've been to two warhammer fantasy tournaments, but instead of talking about them while they were fresh in my memory, I intend to mention both now...

The first was the warmasters' doubles, that Molgrimmar and I teamed up for. It was 2400 points comprised of two 1200 point lists, but otherwise everything was treated as if it were a single force. That means one general, one BSB, no weirdo splitting of power dice, etc.

Pretty sexy army display. There were a few actually, one with a full sized dwarf dirigible.

Flames of War - Early War in the Far East

Earlier tonight I had my first forray into FoW Early War. I learned a number of things. 1) As I've always known, and despite what everybody has always told me, horsemen are badass. 2) As I've always known, and as everybody has always told me, conscripts do suck. 3) KV-1 tanks are dumb. Not because they are unkillable, but because the in the one possible circumstance in which they might possibly die, they will roll a 1.

I didn't take pictures of the game for the entirely valid reason that I forgot to. I put some pictures of cool shit that is tangentially related, so that you perverts don't get bored.

The whole war in a nutshell. The Japanese knew what was really going on.
