Deth Wizards Game 6 - Raiding the nobles mansion.

-

Tuesday night Richard and I got together for game 6 in our co-op campaign. This time we were robbing the Lord's manor house. We were using 10 points this time so our Necromancers would get to activate 3 times each turn.

I had my Death Knight, Mummy and Ghast. Richard has his new Bone Giant, his Vampire, and three skellies.

Here is Team Krell for this mission.

Her we are deployed all in the corner of our deployment area. Richard was very excited to use his giant Skellie
Here are the stalwart defenders AKA foolish mortals standing in the way of our glorious victory. There is the lords personal champion, 3 warriors, 2 rangers, 2 priests and 4 villagers.

Villagers are very popular because they are nice and squishy and great for getting necromantic energy back.


Krell won the initiative and used his Vanhels Dance spell to move his undead faster and then "advanced" the mummy. The undead slowly boogied forwards.
Richard then cast his get my undead minions into battle and his bone giant sped forwards after drinking his potion of extra defence. 
Fragments of pulverised villager splashed into his surrounding comrades Krell's eruption of death claimed souls on the other side of the defender's formation.

Krell summoned another 4 necromantic energy from his dungeon and used that to erupt death all over the defenders. very much enjoying the third activation. It's still only turn one. The defenders have taken 9 casualties so far. The villager next to the giant skellie took one look at the situation and ran for it.

Krell activates the Ghast and they charge the warrior and they begin chopping him down.


The giant Skellie Richards vampire and necromancer are cleaning house on the other side of the table.

The Mummy arrives and Krell hacks into the warrior before Richard moves over and blasts him.

Thats the last of the defenders dealt with and its half way through turn 2.

We achieved all the experience point categories we could and got three bonus xp for playing the scenario. This gave us 8 xp and we both took a level of "Bane of the faithfull" this means enemies are -1 resist when we cast spells on them.

 We held our annual convention Call to Arms on the weekend of 30-31 August. About 160 wargamers from all over New Zealand came and played in 10 different events. Up on the stage we had a couple of different Napoleonic games. They are great looking games with nice armies in spiffy uniforms. The main hall was mostly filled with GW games. on the far left we have the MESBG, then AOS. These were two of our largest events. In the middle of the hall, we have the Horus Heresy games On the right of the hall, we have Kill Team, Flames of War, Warhammer Old World and some of the Demo games including Alan's huge zombie apocalypse game. (more on that later) The ancient gamers are on their preferred side hall. It's warm, quiet and close to the toilets. There were 18 of them playing DBMM This is one of the MESBG tables. The terrain they had was really nice. 3 of the players dressed up as wizards, we had Saruman, Gandalf and Radagast running around in wigs and robes and waving their staffs lik...

Hobby update - Frostgrave campaign

-
Image
For our next Frostgrave campaign we are going to theme it with Warhammer models. The idea is that we are all the forces of chaos and destruction and are going to bring down the kingdoms of men elves and dwarfs as part of our 12-step programme to ascension. Using a warhammer theme also makes it more accessible to people that have not played before. Everyone has some GW fantasy models. I have bought a few Warcry warbands and some underworlds boxes to make warbands. I have made some other models out of a box of undead peasants to round out some of the thieves and thugs that are not usually included in Warcry warbands. After reading a Conan story where he encounters a giant composite ghost. I remember I had this model from the Carnevale Doctors range and am painting it to look like it's a ghost. Here are my Khainite Shadowstalkers, these are shaping up to be an illusionist warband. They have some hounds and an illusionary one. These will be very tricky elves. Here are the splintered Fa...

Stargrave game 2 - It's a bug hunt

Image
  George and I got in a second game of our Stargrave campaign. We used the dead or alive mission and generated the Brood Mother. I didn't think it made much sense for a group of human mercenaries to work for a creature that kept trying to get them to bathe in marinade. I replaced all the mercenaries with spiders using the creatures from Quadrant 37. We used the Transmat to beam down to the planet Spiridon This is a very hostile jungle planet teaming with all sorts of lethal predators. Receiving reports of unidentified aliens hiding in the Plane of Stones we set out through the jungle to find out what was going on.  Here is the Raknos nest, somewhat unexpected. In addition. the nearby volcano is showing signs of an imminent eruption. Here we have the crew deployed. We have a new Engineer, I think I forgot to deploy one of the team. I have changed the Dalek's weapon to a Rapid Fire. The Plane of Stones is one of the more comfortable areas because the rocks absorb heat during the...
