AOS Chaos Dwarves

Hey All,

I am starting to paint up an army of evil stunties for the Holy Wars GT in February! I am using the sweet/horrible old Big Hat Chaos Dwarf models with a very Scorpion Green heavy paint scheme.

So far I’ve assembled a 20 pool choice list (using Clash of Swords Comp):
– Bull Centaur Taur’uk
– 2 Daemonsmiths
– Infernal Guard BSB

-10 Infernal Guard Ironsworn
-10 Infernal Guard Fireglaives
-15 (Hob)Goblins
-6 Bull Centaur Renders

-2 Deathshrieker Rocket Launchers
-Dreadquake Mortar

The painting is going slowly, but I have “finished” 5 Infernal Guard Fireglaives (still need to varnish, add gloss varnish and flock the bases).

Let me know what you think,

Solstice 2015 Results!

SolsticeAnd so, as Morrslieb finally reaches it’s zenith, blotting out Mannslieb and the Sun, the world takes on a greenish hue that grows more intense as the Forces of Disorder wreak havoc all around civilization.  The Heroes of Order and all the good people look up in awe and horror as their vision darkens and their nightmares take shape.  The Solstice is at hand….

Team DisorderTeam Disorder narrowly squeaked out a victory at the Solstice event.

Here are the results:
Team Disorder Battle Points:  263
Team Order Battle Points:  247

Player Results:

Team Order
Name Army Battle Points Awards/Recognitions
Peyton Shipman High Elves 70 Savior Of Light
Todd Silber Wood Elves 65
Chris Lovell Empire 45
Kevin Spear Bretonnia 40 Favorite Player
Greg Person Vampire Counts 27 Favorite Army\Betrayer of Disorder
Team Disorder
Name Army Battle Points Awards/Recognitions
Kyle Brock Skaven 69 Bringer of Darkness
Jon Vanase Daemons of Chaos 60
Charles Slayden Tomb Kings 52
Pat Hill Dark Elves 47
Chris LaBelle Dwarfs 35 Betrayer of Order

This was the my first event I have ever hosted, I really enjoyed putting it all together and watching it all pan out.  Everyone who participated was really awesome and I enjoyed watching the hilarity of their games.  Not sure I haven’t heard that much laughter and shenanigans at an event.  Though maybe it’s always there and I never noticed it as much as a player because I’m too focused in my current match.  Hosting an event does offer a different perspective on the game and community.  But I digress, I really do hope everyone that came had a good time and I do want to do thing again, but mostly that depends on what 9th edition brings.  Perhaps in the darkness of Morrslieb, the war drums will sound again….

Border Princes Campaign Warhammer

Border Princes Campaign – Introductions

This winter I will be running a Warhammer campaign and chronicling it on the blog.  The rules are for a basic map campaign.  Move your armies around the map each turn, and fight a Warhammer battle if your armies make contact.  Lose all your armies and territories and you have been wiped out!

The premise is fairly simple.  Each of our forces has led an expedition into the Border Princes for different reasons.  We didn’t all end up exactly where we wanted to be, but it was time to build some fortifications and start exploring anyway.  The starting tile for each player can be seen on the map.

I am very much tinkering my way through the GIMP work on the map.  The format may change here and there as the campaign goes on.  By the way, this campaign format and what not is shamelessly stolen from Rob Hawkins.  Check out how his gaming group is getting along with their campaign at http://robhawkinshobby.blogspot.com/.

Now lets introduce the players!

Jon – Daemons of Chaos

First I was club dad, then I had a child and now I’m a real dad!  Oh, and supreme overlord of this campaign.

Jeff – Dogs of War

Is that even a real army?  No, I don’t think it is.  I’m pretty sure Jeff is just going to make it up and play with whatever models he is painting at the time.

Brian – Lizardmen

Mr. Army ADD himself played the High Elves for almost TWO WHOLE YEARS.  I guess it was legit time for a change.

Scott C. – Wood Elves

Just look at that plaid!

Greg – Orcs and Goblins

They might not have worked out so well for Bragging Rights, but they’re great for a map campaign.

I’ll post some more information here and there as we work through the campaign.  It’ll be 20 turns long, and I’ll be doing a post for each turn so you can follow along with the progress.  Hope you enjoy and can maybe even get inspired to run your own campaign.

Cheers,
Jon
