 I have another X-wing batrep up for those who are interested. Click here for Batrep  While on the painting desk, i have been preparing for "Frostgrave". I have had some practice games and find the game great fun for a basic campaign based system. Skeletons for some random encounters... they are the wargames factory skeletons and they aren't bad! Warhound... acquired from my Mordheim collection. Thug!.. made from a plastic Gripping Beast dark age warrior.

Battles 1066 Part 1

Image
Well we finally started getting our 1066 games in, though we only got our first game in: The Battle of Stamford Bridge. Click here for Battle Report.   We mange to play this 3 vs 3 game in 5 hours, though we took our time and had a great relaxed game, with a lot of laughs and tea. The game itself wasn't tested prior, so it was lucky it all worked out well, and turned out to be a fun and challenging scenario.   Now i can concentrate on my tutorials, as well as starting up "Frostgrave" Final thoughts.. recently it had been my birthday and had to share a picture of the cake my family made for me.. awesome. "Ewoks!"
