They are hard enough to kill and as they have Regen as well, tend to be in every game. I found them Unbalancing. But that just be my experience.

I won't bamboozle you with everything but if there's something specific (warband/setting wise) you're interested in just ask and i'll see if I've got anything saved.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12139596801553020398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049833607758520037.post-26030589764886243992014-01-29T15:24:40.334+00:002014-01-29T15:24:40.334+00:00Hi Drew,

This all sounds very good and I am sure there will be plenty of people interested int giving it a go...three games in a meeting is good going and that will appeal, as will the low figure numbers needed. Look forward to seeing future games and would like to see some lists if any are about that can be emailed etc?Leofwine Wargamersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09793737318401615556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049833607758520037.post-21016681555663052462014-01-29T15:06:49.313+00:002014-01-29T15:06:49.313+00:00I've got to admit, I do like making terrain......I've got to admit, I do like making terrain....... the trick is getting the buggers finished (looks at multiple unfinished projects in boxes).<br /><br />I think if you play Warhammer you can play the Mordheim rules, they're super easy. Was a novelty getting a couple of games in one night, as opposed to having to assume the outcome. Was also nice only having to bring in 15 odd models.<br /><br />I had great fun even though I did lose all 3 games. Multiple low WS zombies don't last so long against anything else (even with Cause Fear). I personally think that we could've used more terrain as I like terrain and i think it would've added to the game.<br /><br />Re. a Campaign. I think if we have a couple more games in future meetings using different themes/settings. We could open these up to others then we can gauge reaction to the game and see if there's a preference on theme.<br />The only thing is if it was turned into a campaign is keeping tabs on progression of the warbands as they gain experience. <br /><br />Last night we "used" a Lustrian/Jungle setting so he could use his Amazons but it could just as easily be set in Mordheim (lots of ruined Empire buildings), Marienburg (abit like Venice i.e. lots of canals + bridges), Araby (Desert), Sartosa (Pirate themed), Cathay (Far east), Abandoned Dwarven mines, basically anywhere.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12139596801553020398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049833607758520037.post-72412125318989108032014-01-29T14:17:13.641+00:002014-01-29T14:17:13.641+00:00Hi Clint, Okey Dokey, I shall keep that in mind.

More reading...and painting no doubt!Leofwine Wargamersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09793737318401615556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049833607758520037.post-31277868737829389312014-01-29T12:03:14.368+00:002014-01-29T12:03:14.368+00:00If you need any figures for Mordheim let me know. ...If you need any figures for Mordheim let me know. I can field Rieksland, (any of the 3 human choices). Skaven (weak but fun) Chaos (Tough but no range weapons so reliant on getting in quick!). I did have a dwarf list as well and they were a very good option If you can find the list I would recommend them Good fighters, tough able to wear heavy armour. Able to take and dish out damage. So Good all rounders well worth considering. But Skaven are more fun though..

If the guys take to the idea we can alway focus more later but this at least gives them an easy start with no having to buy new stuff....although I have given myself a bit of a pig paint job wise! I wonder what colours an african Vandal army should have....not that I can see half of them anyway....<br /><br />As to unpainted stuff...yeah, I know.....it is only warhammer though so I suppose........Leofwine Wargamersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09793737318401615556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4049833607758520037.post-35430098952109000762014-01-29T10:26:01.887+00:002014-01-29T10:26:01.887+00:00Mordhiem might make a good campaign game for your ...Mordhiem might make a good campaign game for your club, but I would not expect all your members would take to it. Although most would. You can guess whom I am thinking of! DBA Campaign.... a re run of the same set up as before with any army except Hussite, or a little more focussed... Armies of the Europe of the Roman period perhaps. <br /><br />And all that unpainted on the table tsk tsk!Clinthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02351729764098750618noreply@blogger.com
