Yeah the rules seem quite basic but still comprehensicve enough for a good battle and not get too bogged down with details. Will Bring a good selection of minitures and then we can see where to go from there. Dont mind a big battle or 2 V 2 as long as I can have a good try at not getting my ass kicked:)
Me too. have been digging out my old minitures fromthe early 90's and repainting them. Getting a bit nostalgic in the process. I forgot how much I love the fantasy setting! Got a nice little collection of undead, wood elves and dwarfs, not sure what to bring thursday? could bring my undead and have a big horde with you or I could bring my dwarfs and wood elves?
As I have givern my undead a go out last week I think I may bring my dwarfs and some wood elves and see how they perform:) hope thats ok, see you at 7pm
Thursday is Valentine's day apparently, so club is cancelled. The pub will be full of couples facing each other over a table, morosely watching all their plans going down the drain...oh no that's normal club night.
Aww 2nd ed, havent seem that in a while! fair enough wont bring my fantasy stuff down then, do you know of any other 40k games goin on tonight that i may be able to jump in on?
Keep trying to decide what army to play for this game... How do you choose when anything is an option? I can't decide... Giant eagles... Druids.... Living Trees... Trolls... Pirates... Zombies.... Dragons... So many possibilities....
For Armies of Arcana? i can point you in the right direction for strong armies if you prefer that........ Undead are powerful beacuse they are fearless missle immune, Daemon knights (AKA warriors of chaos) for daemons are pretty much unstoppable, Sylvan elves archers (wood eleves) kill most things they shoot at, Dark elves have strong shooting and magic and Finally Goblins can always be counted on to break and run like little girls! Remeber anyone can take warmachines, vehicles and MONSTERS!
I would say Lizardmen but i am thinking of doing them next (or Daemon knights which ever sells first). Lizardmen hit you with weapons then bite your ass, Have two saves one fixed and one normal and good magic floating frogs! They are a nice colourful army to paint.
Thanks for the tips. It's hard to resist the idea of putting together an army made of mini's from any range. For that reason, I think it will be more about looks than anything else, a refreshing change from warmachine/hordes where a models rules come first. Do you know of any decent sites apart from GW, Forge World, Privateer, Warlord and BlackScopion for picking up mini's?
Greek soldiers backed up by their mythological beasts, is a very cool idea! If I manage to flog some bits and pieces and get some moneys together, I'll have to give that a go ^^
