wargamesdiary   A diary of war games and board games

Link has painted up his new stormboyz in readiness for the Armageddon. Battalion coming soon.

Link has set up a small battle to play with his friend this week. The space marines using his new painted jet pack and outrider squads vs essentially a Necron combat patrol.

The Necrons are attacking the space marines base in the ruins of a fallen civilisation on a planet being consumed by lava.

Link and me played a Sengoku Jidai battle using the Midgard rules. Capturing the spirit of the battle of the frozen river centuries earlier our two forces met across the frozen main outside Kyoto. Scenario two of the rules was used with Link defending two crossings across the icy waters. The river being otherwise impassable

Wild West ticket to ride . This time Phil came first but only because he went crazy looking for the lost treasures of sierra madre. He burnt through his special cards and with the help of the treasure hunter found two treasures . However he then ran out of trains to complete his roots having gone mad in his gold fever and had to use his special reserved cards to cancel them .

Hopefully this will let him catch up with the others as he was last in the previous game . We now have the bad lands map open and soon will be on our way to California!

Link wanted to try out his Tyranids vs Necrons combat patrol. The Tyranids won through on VP when he brought his warlord on from deep strike at the end of the game . Good game and well played Link . Great painting too !
