In this time I may have been quiet, but I have not been inactive.<br />
<br />
Most of my time has been spent playing and hobbying with Warzone: Resurrection. However, since my last Warzone post there has been some change. I'm no longer playing Dark Legion. Another gamer in our garage group wanted to jump feet first into the Warzone world, and really wanted to sell his soul to one of the many Dark Apostles.<br />
Unfortunately for Mitchel I had picked up our stockists last Dark Legions box. At the same time however my other favorite faction the Imperials really caught my eye. We made a quick deal and trade, and before you could shake a undead legioneers decaying limb he had plunged into the Dark Symmetry and I was down in the trenchers with the Imperial Ministry of War.<br />
<br />
With the Imperial starter box in my hands I got to painting and here are the results.<br />

The local stockist, now long gone Hall of Heroes got his hands on a huge amount of minis from the Warzone and Chronopia range. The company that made the two systems was kind dead or dying, but largely thanks to some mates such as Mr Mildon the interest was kept up. He had the books as well as copies for our local club M.A.G.E, and we kept on playing.<br />
<br />
I built myself up a decent sized Dark Legion, that I also completed painting. When it came time for the big move countries I had to let go a lot of gaming supplies and my Dark Legion was one of them. From memory I think I donated it to the club? I can't be sure now though.<br />
<br />
Fast forward 10 years and while at Cancon 2015 in Canberra I was shocked to see Warzone being played as demo games. It turns out the game has been restarted by a company <a href="http://prodosgames.com/" target="_blank">Prodos Games</a>, who also do the Aliens Vs Predator game.<br />
<br />
I joined in the demo games with my two oldest boys and it was a serious flash back in time. There were a few additions, but it seemed very much the same game I remembered from Palmie North. What I am really kicking myself for is that it turns out there was a Kick Starter re-release. I missed out but would certainly have backed that.<br />
<br />
In great news though my local has started to stock the game, and I was quick to pick up a Dark Legion starter box. If anyone is looking at this I highly recommend <a href="http://www.tabletopempires.com.au/" target="_blank">Tabletop Empires</a> for all your Warzone, or any other gaming needs.<br />
<br />
Yesterday I stopped by and grabbed a box, then rushed home and dived in whilst watching the Chiefs win yet again.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The box and art work is a huge improvement on the old stuff.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I was a little surprised and disappointed in opening the box half expecting the old slide top and foam inside like I remembered from back in the day. However the new models arn't metal so I guess none of that was needed. Cracking it open I was instantly impressed by the contents. Firstly I looked at the cards included. These are a new addition to the game, and were quite spectacular. They are made of a strong solid card without being thick. They have a nice gloss finish, and more wonderful artwork.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The bases supplied are the nice solid lipped round basses you see in Warmachine and such. They have a slot down the middle, which I found odd as it's not needed at all for the miniatures. A nice touch is the inclusion of two D20 dice to play the game.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGUmIooP6u3l5dFg-ANgp89_x3oFNqE8qPDS1IOGUrf6cD-0ta_He1QJpudFgzvh7jWijacYnBQ150C-MGiJzUCs5p75gI4pY_XEvdCNOFNpOrK_TcMqxqt-zw6Z4dh1cPlNRDB01bUBk/s1600/20150425_103227.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGUmIooP6u3l5dFg-ANgp89_x3oFNqE8qPDS1IOGUrf6cD-0ta_He1QJpudFgzvh7jWijacYnBQ150C-MGiJzUCs5p75gI4pY_XEvdCNOFNpOrK_TcMqxqt-zw6Z4dh1cPlNRDB01bUBk/s1600/20150425_103227.jpg" height="180" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The obvious best part of the starter box is of course the minis themselves. The new model design is spectacular, the detail and look really impresses me, and there was very little clean up required. The new miniature designers have taken a big step away from the huge shoulder pads everything had in its last rendition which is great.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The only small criticism I had of the whole box was trying to glue the minis. It may have been my glue, but it was Zaapagap so I doubt it. I think it may have been the plastic, it took a lot to get a bond. I even had to resort to pinning infantry models.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So as you can see from the pic, in the Dark Legion starter box you get two squads of undead legioneers, two Necromutant Squad Leaders for them and one Razide for heavy support. With everything else that's great value for $70. I've worked out that this is around 250pts. At some stage, i'll expand it by adding in a character but no rush, there's plenty of painting to be done with what I have.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Why do I like Warzone?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Well it's a sci-fi skirmish level game, but where Necromunda or Infinity is about each individual, Warzone still is based in units. It's probably closer in similarities scale and play wise to Warmachine.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It has more inbuilt details game wise than 40k, but without the overly complicated systems of Infinity. Although unit based each model within the unit can act individually and doesn't have to copy what the guy next to him does ie: 40k. It is great skirmish level but if you want you can play bigger games with ease. And I really enjoy games with alternating activation's, and off turn reactions. No sitting around while your opponent has their whole turn.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It's simple, cheap to get into and great fun. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I plan on picking up a second starter, probably imperials and get some battle reports done introducing the game to new people so stay tuned.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

This time we are heading to GronkCon, a warhammer fantasy tournament held in Wollongong NSW.<br />
<br />
Gronk is on the 4th and 5th of July, the player pack can be found <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwE9CcbJC-2-U1FuT3g1TE9vMG8/view" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />
Now I havn't been to Gronk before obviously, it'll be my second warhammer tournament after Sydney Slaughter, but all the reports I have heard have said this is a massive highlight on the event scene. The players pack seems to back this up.<br />
<br />
GronkCon appears to be a warhammer event with quite a difference. It heavily encourages non optimal builds, rewarding them as such. It is a chance to try that army combo that you know is dumb but just wanted to run it for a laugh anyway.<br />
The event is won by the person with the most points at the end. While you do win some points for beating your opponent in games, you actually gain more points in list writing, things that happen during games, fluff, hobby, shouting the TO a beer etc etc. You also can loose points for things like refusing a challenge or trying to 6 dice a spell.<br />
<br />
All up it reads for a hilarious weekend and something very different from the normal competitive scene. The list of achievement points can be found <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwE9CcbJC-2-WTdSX0FnRVhUak0/view" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />
<br />
*******<br />
<br />
So a new event means new army prep. You earn points at Gronk for taking an army you havn't taken to a tournament before. This seemed an easy point to pick up, so despite loving using chaos for the first time at Slaughter, I've put them on the shelf and picking up Empire.<br />
<br />
I've tried to create a 'Gronky' empire list, which mostly has been restricted by what models I actually have, using some things I have but have never used before and creating a list of wimpy humans who can still hold up and give my opponent more than a two turn game. My list is certainly non-optimal for the empire net lists etc, but possibly not quite is gronky as I would hope. I figure this is balanced out by the fact its only empire, we suck anyway. I wanted to try leave out a BSB and earn another easy tournament point, however I couldn't justify it. Fluff wise the BSB is the good old paymaster or the accountant of the army. My guys are all mercenaries, they fight for gold, hence the banners replaced with gold chests.<br />
<br />
I'm happy with the progress I have made on painting the army so far. My characters bar my general are done as are a big chunk of the units. All I have left to paint is some crossbowmen, a halberd detachment, some pistoliers, huntsmen and one artillery piece. That's just five small units and a character, should be done in plenty of time. Oh and of course I have to model/paint something to be my Fozrik's Folding Fortress.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
My two Wizard Lords, hanging out. My stick is bigger than yours.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In case you havn't had enough reading yet, here is the fluff of the White Lions of Eto-Prelensya.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">The highly wealthy trading town of
Eto-Prelensya sits on the shores of the Gulf of Kislev, and situated
directly upon the border between Ostland and Nordland. Eto-Prelensya
was originally settled as two separate villages Eto of Nordland and
Prelensya of Ostland each using the port inlet and the vicinity to
the other as a means to facilitate trade between the realms.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">Over time as the villages each grew,
and family’s from each side of the boarder began to unite through
marriage and birth, the realm’s boundary became little more than a
memory, and the villages united to become a large and wealthy trading
town of the north.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">Time passed for the families and
citizens of Eto-Prelensya with little involvement in the political
woes of the Empire, their isolation from the large cities and self
dependence and wealth allowed them to live with a certain amount of
freedom. However as time passed Eto-Prelensya became a pawn in the
political game between the Elector Counts of Nordland and Ostland. A
town had developed that neither Lord could claim as entirely his own.
Arguments between the courts arose over the border line, should it
move East taking Eto-Prelensya wholly into the Nordland Realm, or
West to become Ostland’s.
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">The people of Eto-Prelensya struggled
with the political attention they suddenly had thrust upon them, and
all argued that no change would be accepted. They had lived as both
citizens of Ostland and Nordland for generation’s. The Elector
Counts each decreed that they would have no more discussion, and if
the people of Eto-Prelensya would not agree, then they would be
forced to accept becoming one realm. The forces of Nordland and
Ostland were dispatched, and war between the two realms was set to
take place with the rights to Eto-Prelensya the prize.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">Being as stubborn as any northerner can
be the people of Eto-Prelensya seeing two warring nations approaching
set about fortifying the town. Roads that once lead through open
rolling plains became cominated by large defensive fortifications.
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">The wealth of the trading council, a
city governing body made of the head trading houses behind them,
Eto-Prelensya hired warriors from all parts of the old world.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">Great warriors from the frozen north
were hired in droves to form elite town guards. Militia from the
streets of Marienburg and any other realm of the empire were welcomed
within the walls. The often ridiculed Halfling’s were paid the same
as a human soldier and provided ample opportunity to use their unique
skills.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">Months of war rolled into a year and
then a second as the forces of Ostland and Nordland lay siege to
Eto-Prelensya and each other. Neither realm had the ability to stop
ships and trade entering into Eto-Prelensya. Captains of the Kislev
Gulf, many of whom had family within the walls all displayed more
loyalty to Eto-Prelensya than either rival nation. Unable to halt
shipments a traditional siege seemed endless.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">As the second year of conflict neared
it’s third and under the glow of the two tailed comet returned, the
Ostland army to the east of Eto-Prelensya was attacked in the night.
As the soldiers slept in their tent’s their guards were overrun by
tribal Norsemen crossing the Gulf from the Northern Wastes.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">The Nordland Army was simultaneously
attacked by feral bestial creatures, hoofed animals who walked like
men poured from the forests to the south overrunning the camp
quickly. It was the forces of Eto-Prelensya who turned the tide on
each front. The gates were opened and the crumbling forces from each
nation were welcomed within the walls. The forces of Eto-Prelensya
hit back at the two true enemy forces.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">As the realm’s armies re grouped and
messages were sent through the lines to each Elector Count, the war
that later became known as “The War of Eto-Prelensya independence”
began. Not with the conflicting realms but this time against the
enemy of humanity, Chaos.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">With reinforcements from Nordland and
Ostland, the empire was able to turn back the tide of chaos, sending
the attacking armies back. Driving the beastsmen into the woods and
the Norse into the waters of the gulf. As the war came to an end
there was still no settlement over ownership of Eto-Prelensya. No
agreement was ever likely causing the Emperor Karl Franz himself to
enter into the political Fray. With the heroic actions of
Eto-Prelensya saving both armies of Nordland and Ostland at the start
of the war it was decreed that the people of Eto-Prelensya shall
choose their future for themselves.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">A quick decision was reached by the
council of trade decreeing that Eto-Prelensya will now and forever be
an independent trading town of the empire showing direct loyalty to
both Ostland and Nordland.</i></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;"><br />
</i></div>
<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i style="background-color: black;">To this day Eto-Prelensya is a safe
haven for any person willing to work to earn. The town continues to
hold a large and formidable military force superbly funded and
resourced by the trading council. It carries on a well earned
reputation as being home to the mightiest mercenary force known to
man.</i></div>

Looking a bit further however, and finding a video preview on YouTube I have to change my mind. </div>

This is quite different to what has very much been a standard across all hobby transport systems for a long time. The ability for the rows to push and fold out of the way is quite excellent. No more cutting large holes in the foam trays to fit a vehicle though multiple levels.<br />
I approve. Shame about the price, but thats more GW standard.Psychehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02995704122826548371noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1502015941152581972.post-79265616230164649382015-04-06T21:17:00.000-07:002015-04-07T02:47:27.755-07:00Trials for GronkconHello there,<br />

GarageHammer is a bunch of guys from Western Sydney who just like to hang out and play wargames. We are also known as the Western Warriors, our club until our local independent shut down. We still have the flag in honor of 'Mikes'.<br />
<br />
The idea of this blog is for us as a club/group to post updates on our hobby adventures, be it games, campaigns or modeling and events.<br />
<br />
To start off with post one I thought I would discuss our weekend just gone and the great Warhammer fantasy event that was the Sydney Slaughter.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0zlfmlYpqXbzCPI8NeZebH0k8z39tbrV3km-o1_-A2U2gP7xeYFNRYx41FmvZreE8gxrYjrk8iBPI40Unlc6U8TLnwq9E9El86HaeMC34mg5yOwU2Mpu7m27a7y6TEllzKZzsYoL1KX8/s1600/slaughter.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0zlfmlYpqXbzCPI8NeZebH0k8z39tbrV3km-o1_-A2U2gP7xeYFNRYx41FmvZreE8gxrYjrk8iBPI40Unlc6U8TLnwq9E9El86HaeMC34mg5yOwU2Mpu7m27a7y6TEllzKZzsYoL1KX8/s1600/slaughter.jpg" height="180" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
We had six of us go along to the tournament. Slaughter was a six game warhammer fantasy singles tournament using 2800 point armies with hidden panel comp scores between 0-8. The event also used all six scenarios from the warhammer book.<br />
<br />
I took along a soft Warriors of Chaos list with none of the new legion toys.<br />
My army consisted of:<br />
Khorne Lord on Juggernought, sword of might, 4++ ward<br />
Nurgle Sorcerer Lord, level 4, lore of nurgle, dispell scroll, Barded Warhorse<br />
Exalted Hero of Nurgle, BSB, Filth Mace, Dragon Bane Gem<br />
<br />
19 Warriors of NUrgle with Halbers, Shields, Full Command<br />
10 Warriors of Khorne with additional Hand Weapons, full command<br />
5 Warhounds with Vanguard<br />
5 Warhounds with Vanguard<br />
20 Marauders of Khorne with Flails and full command<br />
<br />
9 Knights of Nurgle, Enscrolled weapons, full command and banner of swiftness<br />
Gorebeast Chariot of Khorne<br />
<br />
Spawn of Nurgle<br />
3 Skull Crushers with enscrolled weapons, full command and banner of rage.<br />
<br />
Pretty tame for 2800 of Warriors.<br />
<br />
I ended up with a comp of 6 our of 8. This was exactly what I aimed for, and what I liked about this event is they kept your comp scores secret until the end.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The first game was a Dawn Attack, very fitting to open the weekend up with.<br />
My opponent was Mikkel Kragh with one of the most beautiful High Elf armies ive ever seen.<br />
His army was not the typical avoidance, minimum units elf list, he had some good solid blocks of fighters and bowmen. A general on a phoenix and a second phoenix to cause problems.<br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The bridge was quite fun to fight over. We decided not to worry about ranks width within reason. Halfway over the bridge I got flanked by his greatswords. We agreed that it would count as a wall/barrier for a defended obstacle, but the river ended up being a light river and gave him WS10 I10. It was a fun fight to see us grind each other down.</div>
<br />
<br />
My deplyment let me keep fairly central as did Mikkels. The game was fun, and he was a great opponent to play against. I ended up with a 17-3 win. We both had the same comp score so this wasn't adjusted at all.<br />
<br />
<br />
Game two was against Chris A-J and his Goblin army.<br />
This game was great, playing a battle for the pass I was up against spiders. There were two goblin wizards riding Araknaroks, two more Araknaroks, a HUGE ambushing mob of giant spiders, about 30 I think, two more blocks of giant spiders and a bunch of spider riding characters.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
This game was much closer than my first one with me getting a 12-8 win. Again we both had comp 6 as it turns out so our scores stayed the same.<br />
<br />
<br />
Game three saw our first scenario with an objective being blood and Glory.<br />
In this unlike most warhammer tournaments Victory Points didn't mater. If you broke your opponent you got a 15-5 win, that was it. Played just like it should be from the rulebook.<br />
<br />
I played Marcell Fisher, a late entrant to the event and his Beastmen/Warriors of Chaos army.<br />
Firstly ill start with the game, or lack there of. He had a very low fortitude, having only a general, bsb and two banners. Turn two I charged the BSB on its daemonic mount with my Gorebeast chariot, did 7 impact hits, his 1 up armour became 3 up and he failed 4, he went for his 4 up ward (rerolling any ones and got a 5, 3, 2, 2. SO three wounds and he couldn't even reroll any. BSB dead.<br />

<br />
His warrior block got charged by my hounds and Knights the same turn, were split open and that was the end of the game in my turn two.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
I won 15-5 without Marcell getting a second turn.<br />
Marcell had a comp of 2 against my 6 which means a bonus to me of 800 points, im not sure how that worked into the 15-5 win but it was massive.<br />
<br />
Now I have a bit of a gripe about Marcell's army. He was Chaos Legion's, Beastmen and Warriors of chaos. Every single model in his army was a Beastman model, with them counting as warriors of chaos. Usually I wouldn't have a problem with this, keeping things into a theme is cool. However I felt Marcell took things to far. of hsi 2800 point army the only unit that were actually beastmen were one unit of Bestigors. His minotaur was a daemon prince, his beasts chariots were warriors chariots, etc etc. I felt that just the one single beastman unit was pushing the counts as thing way to far. It should have been the other way around with most of the beastmen models being beastmen and one being a warriors unit. It was confusing.<br />
<br />
That ended day one and we decided as our team to hit the Chinese restaurant downstairs.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I highly recommend the restaurant at 99 on York, it was delicious.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Most of the tournament goers it seems headed into town and got on the cans.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Into day two Game four was a Meting Engagement against Matt Wilson (who ended up winning the tournament) and his Skaven.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Firstly I thought the Panel comp judges did an amazing job with good fair scores. Out of 60, from what I looked at aroudn the room I felt they were a bit kind on only two lists. Matt's was one. Everyone knows Skaven are filth and he ended up with a 5.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
His list consisted of a Vermin Lord Warpseer, BSB and Rat General, two Engineers, big block of Slaves, two big blocks of Stormvermin, a Hellpit, a doom wheel AND three Stormfiends. Rat Ogres and scouts.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A five just felt a bit generous. Matt handed me my first loss of the tournament 11-9. I think my bonus 200 points may have pulled this back to a draw.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Game five was the second objective scenario of Watchtower.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As per the book who ever held the watchtower, won the game. Victory Points didn't matter.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Up against Mitch Edwards and his all Slaneesh Warriors of Chaos army this was going to be fun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Mitch had a Daemon Prince, Sigvald as his general, a lvl 4 fire wizard riding on a Chaos Warshrine.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
A block of Slaneesh Warriors with Halberdsm a Manticore, A slaneesh giant, and some hounds.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I won the deployment roll and threw my khorne warriors into the tower. First turn they were charged by Sigvald and his Warriors. Sigvald strolled into the fight slaying a lot of my guys, my Khorne Champ was in a challenge with the Slaneesh champ, which I won. The few remaining Khorne Warriors slayed some of their Slaneesh kin before the remaining warriors struck back killing the rest of the unit. My Unit champ from the challenge was still alive however and steadfast held the watchtower all on his own.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
His warrior block bounced out and were visable with one warrior each side of the tower. I charged in on the left with my skull crushers and on the right with my knights.I only had one guy from each unit fighting corner to corner. My Khorne Lord ended up in a challenge with Sigvald, while one night slowly whittled down the Slaneesh warriors a turn at a time.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This fight was soon joined by a Slaneesh Chariot, a Manticore, a Daemon Prince a Warshrine and my Gorebeast chariot.</div>

Big epic smackdowns later most of his units were gone as were mine. In the challenge however on his final wound my Khorne Lord severed the head of Sigvald in one mighty blow.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Khorne was watching closely and the eye of the gods came up double 6.</div>

Rejuvenated to full wounds and now sporting true Daemonhood, this was the real turning point.</div>

Mitch's Chimera ran down the last of my Marauders, and while this was going on i sneakily moved my big Nurgle block and BSB into the watch tower. </div>

I ended the game holding the tower so took a 15-5 win. Mitch had a comp of 4 which surprises me. So my 15-5 would have been pushed up into an even bigger win.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then we rolled into game six. At this point I was in second place. Our scenario was a plain old pitched battle scenario and I had drawn Simon Turner and his Ogres.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I had been prewarned that Simon can be sometimes a punish to play against as a player but I found him to be quite decent. We had a few rules/situation issues but he just blew them off and said 'what ever, move on'.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
What wasn't fun though was his army. This guy, unlike me was obviously a serious tournament player and his army matched that. It was strong and very effective, but from a garage hammer point of view it was not fun to play against.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now when it comes to warhammer I believe this to be a social and multi person hobby. Its my opinion that both people need to have fun and want to play the game or there's no point playing. Of course im a garagehammer, shits and giggle kinda player. I don't begrudge Simon for his list, it was a tournament, and he took a good list to win. Kudos to him. It was unfortuantly for me the only non fun game of the weekend.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Simon's list consisted of </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Lvl 4 wizard lore of Heavens (general), lvl 1 wizard lore of Maw, BSB guy</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2 Thunder Tusks</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
4 (or 5?) minimum 3 man iron guts units with full command</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
3 big units of leadbelchers (16 in total)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
3 individual dogs,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1 cannon chariot</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Right from the start I didn't know what to do. I needed to get my stuff into combat as one round of shooting would kill an entire unit no problem. However Simon plays his Ogres as though they are elves. The Ironguts bait and flee, screening the guns. Nothing can get into a fight. His dogs block and divert, its a nightmare. He plays the army very very well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I had a huge building in front of my right flank and thought id just have to go defensive and try hide. This was working well until the end turns when my wizard and knights failed a panic, failed the BSB reroll and fled. With everything else he had managed to shoot to pieces, that pushed it easily to a 20-0.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
His comp was 4, which I felt was about 2 higher than it should be. Chatting to people in the know this army list seems to fly under the radar, its not the 'usual' power build comp judges see so it seems as though they didn't see the potential. Kudos to Simon though, he really knows his army.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Since our game and having had time to think ive come up with another play. I don't know how it'd work but I would be interested to try it out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In the end I slid down to fourth place. I was happy with that result in only my second tournament and my first individual tournament, especially since i said months ago I don't want to go and try place, I just want to play casual fun gamers in the low/middle levels.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
That plan didn't really eventuate, but with the high comp pack players and armies were really great (mostly).</div>

A big thank you to Nick from the WatchTower podcast for hosting the first Sydney Slaughter, and I plan on making an appearance again next year if it's the same format.</div>
