Island of blood intro game

This is some photos from a game with the Island of blood box models.
I showed the game to "non gamer friends"

I add two  spawn as Ogre rats to equalize the forces.
Also the griffon is a great eagle.
Armies is approx. 820 p


Deployment  High Elf

 

 

 

Deployment   Skaven

 Skaven goes first.....

 .....and kill some elfs

 High  elf counter

 Skaven runs

 Final blow and the cavalry is gone.

 A brave charge of the High elf general.

 A lot of bad luck from the High elf and the general is gone.

 The mage survive a warp flame attack.

 Sperman hunt down some rat ogres.

 Swordmasters take their  prey

 The rats are running.

 Highe elf prepare for the final attack.

 Wind mortar take some last  kills

Game over. After a very bad start the tied turned to victory for the high  elf.


This was fun and a new experience for me to try to teach the game.
I hope the players enjoyed it too. But I think it is way to much to hope for that they become gamers too.

Warriors of Chaos – army progress # 6 – Chaos Warriors, Sorcerer Lord and Exalted Champion

I have had quite a good paint progress the last two weeks. Keeping in line with the colours on my Chaos Marauders, I wanted the cloaks dark reed and the armour in "dark Steel".

  

Close up pictures of the units/models:

My Lv4 Sorcerer Lord and the Exalted Hero (BSB). Since the Lord has a stat line that includes chaos armour, and the fact that these guys are deadly in close combat (and can hold their own), I decided to use a "standard model" as the base for my “design”.

20 Warriors of Chaos with Hand Weapon and Shield (full command).

20 Warriors of Chaos with Halberd and Shield (full command).

 

What unit to paint next….

Beastmen army progress

Ghorgon, Doombull and a Heardstone is next up.
I will probably not include a Ghorgon in the  army list.  I will use some magic to get it on the table instead. Doombull can be a game winning Modell but it needs protection. That means buying more minotaur's.

Warriors of Chaos – army progress # 5 – Chaos Marauders

Finally! Painting skin is often a daunting task, and these models have a lot of it. It took me just over a week to finish these guys. 50 Strong (with shields optional).

I decided to remove all the remaining horns on the helmets. As a result of the new Army Book I also removed some of the great weapons (converted Flails with Axe heads), and issued these models with Flails, in order to field the unit either as a unit with flails…

… ore Great Weapons.

My goal is to finish one unit every week throughout April and may, so I can have a first game with the army late in May. Leadbelcher has dibs on this encounter, one I am looking forward to!

Cheers,
