01 February 2007

Can't believe Feb is here already but we've done well for getting some gaming in, with Steve continuing to prove himself the daddy of WAB he's registered for this years tourney in Nottingham where he'll likely get some stiffer opposition than my picts who seem to be developing a nasty habbit of waiting till they've almost won the day before fleeing to the hills in screaming panic. Skirt wearing lassies.

In the intrests of preserving some gaming dignity in the face of multiple defeats me and Dunc had the idea of a quick 500 pt game with a randomly generated (D20) army from the list below:


1 Roman (Roll further D6): 1-2 Republican (Hannibal) 3-4 Imperial (Rulebook) 5-6 Late (AoA)

2 Spanish (Hannibal)

3 Numidian (Hannibal)

4 Early Gaul (Hannibal)

5 Ligurian (Hannibal)

6 Persian (Roll Further D6): 1-3 Achaemenid Persians (AoA) 4-6 The end of Persia (Alexander)

7 Hittite (Chariot Wars)

8 New Age Egyptian (Chariot Wars)

9 Isrealite (Chariot Wars)

10 Assyrian Or Babylonian (on 4+)(Chariot Wars)

11 Trojan and Mycenaean Greek (Chariot Wars)

12 Ancient Chinese (AoA)

13 Nomadic Hordes (AoA)

14 Barbarian (WAB Rulebook)

15 Carthaginian (Hannibal)

16 Greek (On D6 5+ may be mercenary list from Alexander) (AoA)

17 Macedonian (Alexander)

18 Indian (Roll D6): 1-2 Main list, 3 Classical Indian, 4 Mountain Indian, 5 Republican Indian, 6 Mauryan Indian (Alexander)

19 Frontier Horsemen (Alexander)

20 Thracians (Alexander)


No characters, elephants or warmachines are allowed, obviously the facing armies can be by agreement but this gives the opportunity to try out different lists. Our first game took less than an hour and I did finally manage a win...
Also managed to get some photo's on here; my 8th army Motor company for Flames of War which are about halfway towards 1500pts so might have them finished by next month.
