This Sunday at Essex Warriors in Writtle

Some photos of a few of the games taking place at Essex Warriors in Writtle yesterday.

Apologies to those I missed capturing.

I took part in an epic Kings of War game,  6 players, 2500 points each, total 15,000 points on the table.

Ended as a draw, right flank went to the Rats! I took the elves out in the middle despite their horrible beast of a dragon, and then the left flank ended in a draw when they ran out of turns making it 1-1.

Great fun

Also being played:

New version of Sharp practice, Napoleonic skirmish game by Too Fat Lardies, was well attended and looked fun.

Fields of Glory battle,

Some DBM as usual,

A big WW2 Jungle game in Burma?

a WW1 game using Square bashing by Peter Pig

Today at the Club

Today I took part in a massive Kings of War 2 game, 6000 pts a side.

I had 4000 pts mostly made up of the Kingdoms of man plus some Dwarfs and I was allied with some 2000 pts of Undead.

Opposing this war host was some 6000pts + of deamons

This was the second mass game using these rules and I have to say I think they are definitely my new go too large scale fantasy rules set.

Can you field hundreds of troops - check

Can you field large and small units - check

Individual war machines - check

Heros - check

Utilise all of my current collection - check

easy to learn - check

easy to play - check

game time - fast

I'm sure it took longer to set up than to play or may be it felt that way. Either way once you understand the rules concepts and provided you have the stat's to hand this game move fast.

Needless to say it was a crushing victory for the forces of men, Hordes of Knights pack a real punch, and my war machines even had the joy of taking out a Giant near the start.

Also some photos from the other games on today: Critical Mass looking good with some Mech action, American Civil War and a WW2 Bolt action game.
