[WM] Ostermark versus Chaos
« on: April 21, 2016, 08:14:28 PM »
2 of us played a game this week at Warhammer World.  1,500 points.  Ostermark and tribal allies (Kislev stats) against Chaos.  As you will see from the captions, the lighter cavalry successfully swarmed round the Chaos flanks and then wore them down past their break point.

It seem like a lot of cavalry for both sides. How long does the game last?

Amazing! I just admire your Empire army! And a great battle report btw :-)

Would you mind letting me know where you got the Empire Lancers from? Cheers!

Converted pistoliers?

@Chris Vee, apologies for the delay - yes, as Aquahog suggests, the Lancers are converted GW Pistoliers.
