Finally: a game!

Hello all,
after many looong months of no gaming it seems we shall be having us a fancy Warmaster game next weekend!

The scenario will be something along these lines:
(ANY COMMENTS OR SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOMED!)

Warmaster Scenario: Seize and Control:
In any larger seige the control of nearby resources is of the utmost importance for all involved. This scenario represents a large foraging army sent out to places of import near such a seige where they encounter the opposing army. Both sides seek to gain control of the stretegic objectives on the field of battle, perhaps more important than inflciting casualties.

2500 points (min/max limits as for 2000p).
Deployment: Hidden setup, 20cm in. 
Special rules:
Skirmishing moves (i.e. skirmishers gets a free move after all deplouyment has been done, the one with the most skirmishing units begins).
Artillery Master (i.e. our old favorite Special Character - tons of rules - this game he will be bringing a unit of Crossbowmen and an Organ Gun for free).

Victory Conditions:
Normal victory points will only be used to decide a tie, and break points are not applied.
After each player's turn he will be awarded one point for each of the objectives he is in control of.
The objectives are the central hill, forrest and city.
To control one of these a player must have scoring troops (i.e. not skirmishers, artillery or troops belonging to the Artilery Master. In addition characters and units reduced to one stand cannot control anything) within the boundaries of the objective and be the only player to have troops in the particular objective. If a player controls an objective he will be awarded one point; i.e. up to three points by each player may be grabbed each turn.
After the battle the points will decide who won the game.
In addition 2 points will be awarded for bringing the enemy to their break point and 2 for killing/capturing the enemy general.

Map:
All the best - and of course a battle report will follow...

Old Skaven Madness - part 38 - Harpy family picture

Hello all,
I almost forgot a few pictures of the unit of Harpies - all together ready to wreak havoc on dwarven cannons or elven Repeater Crossbows (actually they most often ran away from carrions - but thats another tale :-)).






Best regards,
Kasper

Old Skaven Madness - part 37 - Harpy Banner Bearer

Hello all,
the last of the command group - the banner bearer. The banner itself really turned out well and provided an interesting focal point for the group of Harpies. It also allowed for some different symbols than on the other Skaven banners.
Hope you enjoyed it - next up will be some warmachines.





Best regards,
Kasper

Old Skaven Madness - part 36 - Harpy Command Group

Hello all,
I can't remember if they were allowed to have one, but I couldn't resist adding another banner and command group to my unit of Harpies. The photos below are of the musician and the champion, next up will be the bannerbearer.
The musician really turned out well and still looks pretty imposing :-).



 And the champion also looks like he would love to smack you into next week...

Hope you enjoyed them.

Best regards,
Kasper
