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
And 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 Disorder narrowly squeaked out a victory at the Solstice event.
Here are the results:
Team Disorder Battle Points: 263
Team Order Battle Points: 247

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….
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.
Peyton – High Elves
Well, kind of. Halfling High Elves that is. Go Alith Anar!
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.

Pat – Dark Elves
The newest Unplugged Gamer. Out to prove his hobby prowess in his first map campaign.
Scott W. – High Elves
One day Greg ran into this guy Scott, and he turned out to be Jon’s co-workers sister’s husband. and now we play warhammer :-p
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.
