A game plan, eh? It’s hard to predict how any game of Warmachine/Hordes will go, but it’s always worthwhile having a game plan. This plan should be pretty concrete in terms of how your force deploys and how you’d like the first turn will go down. There are some variables, specifically exceptional ranged threats in [...]

A while ago I posted about some Neglected Toys (Warcasters and Warlocks) that were gathering dust. With the beginners tournament coming up I decided it was time to bring some of those toys out to play, so I rolled on the D10 chart and here’s what I got. The first list is reserved for veteran [...]

I enjoyed typing “Completed” in the title of this post. I bought this model a long time ago and eventually decided to paint it earlier this year, but it’d been on the painting table at least three times as each time I attempted to finish it. Thankfully it is now finally done and here’s the [...]

I’ve been using the D10 chart for a few weeks now and it’s working really well – as in I can roll a D10, or use random.org, and select the appropraie warlock/warcaster from the list! I’ve used Thagrosh1, Lylyth1 and Butcher2 so far. In my first game with Thagrosh1 I remembered why I enjoyed him [...]

So, this is the final game of the campaign. Both forces have fought aggressively. I’ve technically won the campaign, but in ANNIHILATION there are varying degrees of win. Let’s see if I can win this last game too… There you have it. It was a high attrition campaign in the end. Here’s what’s left of [...]

Wow – this was the highest attrition game so far in the campaign. It devolved into a fight between two badly wounded warlocks with no source of Fury! As we’re playing five 35pt games my starting force was 140pts (5 x 35pts x 80%, excluding Warbeast points). Here’s how my army is faring after four [...]

Wow! What a weekend?! Over the last two days the Irish Warmachine/Hordes Masters 2012 was held at Leprecon, in Dublin. I played five hotly contested games and somehow managed to come second overall. Here’s the story of my preparation and the games over the weekend… if you can’t be bothered reading it all you can [...]

Here it is, Game 3 of the campaign. As we’re playing five 35pt games my starting force was 140pts (5 x 35pts x 80%, excluding Warbeast points). Here’s how my army is faring after three games – Saeryn, Omen of Everblight Kallus, Wrath of Everblight * Harrier (2pts) * Nephilim Soldier (5pts) * Shredder (2pts) * Shredder (2pts) [...]

Here it is, Game 2 of the campaign. Enjoy! Owen

New Year, New Campaign. This time around we’re playing a 5-game ANNIHILATION campaign. Here’s the battle report for the first game – We haven’t quite figured out the fluffy context for the campaign yet, but something to do with the Circle Orboros forces trying to cut the movement of supplies north, thus isolating the Legion [...]
