Mordheim Madness

The City of the Dammed has been overrun by the vile Skaven and the only thing stopping them is the Brave men of the Empire. Under ash choked skies, the factions of the Old World battle for glory and domination over the lost City.

Early skirmish reports, tell the tale of victory for the Mutilator and his minions. In a desperate fight around the Forgotten Tomb, the overwhelming numbers of Rat-men were the undoing of Walter and his Mercenaries. The reward was rich one as the Skaven chased off their beaten foes. A  Incredible bounty of Wyrdstone was the prize, fueling future hopes of Skaven glory.

In the aftermath, despite the rich haul of loot, the seer of the Skaven war band was gravely injured and must spend time healing the wound. While the Empire with it's numerous wounded warriors made out of rather well without loss or other setback. Now each side stands poised to battle once more in The City of the Dammed. 

Dark Eldar Reavers

Well, all I can say is they are done. It’s a really neat model kit but the price makes amassing a huge unit unfeasible.  This new ball joint on the flying stands is nice change from the old one. After a few coats of paint the bikers sit on the stand with little or no problems. I can’t say that for the Hellions.  So, now they are painted what to do with them?

The Internet makes it sound so easy, but I’ve got a sneaky suspicion that it’s going to take a lot of trial and error to use this unit properly.  I’m not expecting great things from my bikers; I just want to get the maximum effect. Next up on the painting table... Hellions. 

Return to Mordheim pt.3

These are a bunch of photos of the triple-header of Mordheim, that I played last night against Mr. Watson's Beasts of Chaos. The foul horde took all three games with a unstoppable fury, that left the Rozenritter beaten up and bloody. The first one was a occupy 5 of the buildings to win. The speed of the Beast lent well to this type of objective, and they took total control of the board. The battle that followed left 3 of Spearmen dead and Walter Schepkoff  grievously wounded.

The second game was a Chance Encounter that gave the Rozenritter quite a bloody nose. The only shinning moment was when Oskar squared off against the vile Shaman. It was only a minor victory however, as the mercenaries lost the taste for battle soon after, leaving city to the Beastmen.

As luck would have it, The Rozenritters met up with a Elven Ranger, who shared the same hatred for Beast of Chaos. They join forces to face off against the Beast in a third and decisive showdown. The results were the same, as the Beast showed no mercy. In the end 8 of my warriors were out of the game, but all my luck rolled up at once, and every single one lived to tell the tale. Not the ranger though, he was killed for his trouble.

All I can say... More Mordheim, please!
