Dragon/Lion Rampant
Hi all, Just played a game of Lion Rampant, one of the several very simple Osprey Wargames of Daniel Mersey. Dragon (Fantasy) and Lion ('Historical') Rampant are two very similar games based on the same system of 'big skirmishes'. You need a 40-60 figures, of which the man sized conisis of 6 or 12 m...

Re: Warhammer Armies Project: a search for experience.
And anorther interesting game agains Darkelves, 3000 pts. My opponent had an army of MSU, with several units of dark rider FC, harpies, shades, and darkshards, a Medusa, and two CO-chariots. As hammers he had a Hydra, an Chimaira with rider, a unit of Cold One Knights with Malus Darkblade, and a 10 ...

Another game of AoF, this time the skirmish version. Also fun, also quite instinctive.

Re: Warhammer ToW
No problem that cannot be solved with sabots.
I'm very willing to try the game, but f I don't like it, I'll gladly return tot WAP, Renaissance or even 9th Age.

Re: Warhammer Armies Project: a search for experience.
No prob. It was a great game, it was very close, so his victory was deserved. We play a narrative campaign, not a competition. The fun is in the story, not the winning.

Re: Allerion's Army Reborn
Welcome back. I'm really jealous you have the middle guy with the big sword and the shield. It's about the last model I miss in my collection.

Re: Warhammer Armies Project: a search for experience.
Very tense second game in a my campaign agains skaven. I had the advantage of surprise, but only 1000 points against 1500. The clue was that the warmachines saved in this game would be available in the rest of the campaig. My opponent decided he would go for vermintide and took no warmachines at all...

Re: (Almost) first step in 9th age.
I would no conclude that from this fight. Men at arms with sword and shield should have hard time against a fighty hero on an beast, I think.

Re: Age of Fantasy
And this time a loss against Chaos, pointswise a close call but regarding losses not so close.
It is an interesting little game.

Re: Age of Fantasy
Another litle game against Chaos (Regiments) Close win. I really can recommend this game. I don't know if it will hold in the long term, but it is quite simple to learn and takes some thinking to master. Lw model count. Quick to set up. And finished within an hour or two.

Re: Warhammer Armies Project: a search for experience.
The last few weeks two battles. 1 1)A small battle against Skaven. It was the first in a small campaign: the Skaven had to storm a building. 500 points, My White Lions were easily destroyed defending the outer wall, but my Warriors held the building. 2) A battle against Lizards. I tried a Lord of Ae...

Re: Warhammer Armies Project: a search for experience.
We decided to take some magic items, heroes and units we usually don't take, to try them out or just for being nice, Good call and sometimes that surprisingly reveals more interesting or flat out stronger options in some areas. Yes, it did. stormfiends, How do these perform in WAP? They can be deva...

Re: Warhammer Armies Project: a search for experience.
So, that was some time. But another win under my belt, albeit a very close one. The Skaven player and I decided we wanted to do things a bit differently. In WAP I think most players have a few 'go to' items, tactics and builds, the 'you need this' stuff to have some chance of winning. For High Elves...

Re: Oathmark
It was, it is a nice geme. Haven't tried it since, but nice, quick and not very complicated is the best description. It is very much made for campaign play. The fluff is less deep than Warhammer, it is pretty generic.

(Almost) first step in 9th age.
Second time I played a gamelet of 9th Age. 1000 points Bretonnia (Aquitain) against Lizardmen. Two units of 7 and 6 respectively of Feudal Knights, a unit of Men at Arms, a BSB and a Lady with Druidic magic. Agains a hero on mount, a unit of 10 saurus and a cavalry saurus unit of 6. My Men-at-Arms h...

Re: Warhammer Armies Project: a search for experience.
Thanks. The Merwyrm was essential, it secured the flank and did a lot of killing in the end. The unit was sorely depleted and therefore could not benefit form the 'strengt in numbers' rule, and was in the minority. So it lost the combat so dramatically that there was no chance of holding (no insane ...

Re: Warhammer Armies Project: a search for experience.
Very nice, tense game against Skaven. We played Blood&Glory, which is perhaps my favorite in WAP. I had a LIFE 4th mage, a Loremaster, a Seahelm BSB, a big unit of SG (34), a rather big on of Swordmasters (19), some Shadow Warriors, some archers. 2 RBT's, a Merwyrm, an Eagle and a Phoenix. My op...

Re: Warhammer Armies Project: a search for experience.
Yes, I've used Warriors with 2weapons earlier, they do well,but in this case I fought Darkelves, and MA+shield (minus the -1 AP of the darkelves) gave a decent save of 5+ agains shooting and the Melusai in CC. I did need the luck on the Leadership front there as well though.
Sunday up against Skaven.

Re: Age of Fantasy
I played the Regiments version Saturday.
High Elves against Chaos. As nice and tense as the first game I played.
Comment from my opponent: even at 1000 points I could bring a very varied army.

Anyone venturing into the Oathmark Realms?
Played my first game two weeks ago, nice, quick game. I'll keep you posted.
Actuallly it was my second game, I tried it a fwe years ago in a 6 player game. But that was not representative, I think.

First show of my frost Phoenix. Lore of metal did well, managed to kill his wizard in turn II. What an onslaught, it was a ...

It was very fast and tense, you could use most troops from the various warhammer games.
