Orcs & undead vs Dwarves & bretonians
« on: September 27, 2012, 08:04:19 PM »
We fight a 4 player game. 1000 point per player.

Dwarves and bretonian obtain 615VP ,  orcs and undead obtain 570, so good guys victory.

The last turn the batteries run over... anyway here is the report, have fun:

Very nice report, thanks for sharing.  :)

Can I ask how long the game took? I'm thinking about the game size to use when we all meet at Warhammer World in November. I was hoping we'd have time to get two big games in (4000 points a side) so I'm really interested to see how long this game took.

Yep, thanks pw.

It takes 3 hours and a half, and we play 4 turns. So it takes an hour per turn (aprox), because people uses to talk and rules questions, etc...

But this battle is 2000 points per side.

I played orcs, but have command undead a few times. Yes carrion is a great unit in the army. The status of Monster, gives them an addition +1 very useful.

Great photos, Jchaos.

I was the dwarf general in this battle but i have to say that was the bretonian army the true winner because my dwarves didn't do anything interesting ^_^.

I agree with Jchaos, Carrions as monsters and their disposition like chavalry makes these creaters a terrible opponent when charging.

Looks like you had a real scream! :)

Lovely to see so many nicely painted figures out on the table.
