  • Memoirs of a Dead General – A Ninth Age Battle Report

    I promised a rundown of my last game. Now I didn’t take notes so I won’t be able to give a full breakdown of every interaction but I did take a couple of photos so I can cover the broad strokes and the lessons I learnt. Speaking of the photos – apologies also for the…

  • The Phoenix Rises – The Ninth Age

    It’s been a long time. Over a year and a half since I last posted here. Those astute readers will notice that the time I stopped lines up almost perfectly with Games Workshop’s release of Age of Sigmar. I’m not going to hate on Age of Sigmar here. It’s not the place. Suffice it to say,…

  • Gobbocon 2015

    Gobbocon 2015

    The Tournament So it’s been far too long since I last wrote a post. I had intended to do a post-tournament wrap up of Cancon but frankly I was exhausted, couldn’t remember the details of all 8 games and didn’t do or play particularly well in many of my games. Luckily, the same can’t be…

  • Cancon 2015 – “Fear me, if you dare!”

    One doesn’t simply ignore the advice of the Tasmanian Antonio Banderas and thus, my list is changed. With suggestions from a friend on how to take a similarly powerful list with a less “hard” score, I riffed a bit on his designs, keeping the exact same models and have come up with this: Prince with Heavy…

  • Cancon 2015 Preparation

    Cancon 2015 Preparation

    The combination of it being approximately one million years since I last updated my blog and me having a lot of spare time in the holiday season, I thought I’d do a little write up about how things are going in preparation for my next tournament. Cancon is an event run by the Canberra Games Society…

  • Barglecon III

    Barglecon III

    Another tournament. Another blog. Again, it’s been ages since I’ve last posted and I’ve been quite busy in between! Since last I wrote I got married, went to Japan for a honeymoon, decided to move house and throughout it all I still found time to do some hobby and get a few games in! The…

  • Escalation Update – Kroxigors coming along

    Escalation Update – Kroxigors coming along

    This weekend I managed to get some work done on my Kroxigors. I was introduced to Lamian Medium and truly this is the elixir of the gods! Well, I wouldn’t recommend drinking it but for layer painting, it was amazing. I’ll be buying some of my own this week.

  • Escalation League – Month 1 – 500 Points.

    Escalation League – Month 1 – 500 Points.

    So this last Sunday saw us start off our Escalation league! We had a few no-shows and late drop-outs but we still had 10 people at 11am on a Sunday out of bed and getting their Warhammer on. In the conversation on our Facebook group, I noticed early on that I might end up being…

  • A long Overdue Update on my Lizardmen Escalation

    A long Overdue Update on my Lizardmen Escalation

    So way back in August of last year, I wrote about joining in on an escalation challenge over at Wargaming for Fun. The plan was to be doing monthly updates as things progressed but life and High Elves got in the way. In the coming months, there is an escalation league being run locally in Hobart,…

  • Triumph & Treachery

    Triumph & Treachery

    So a couple of nights ago, I cracked into Triumph & Treachery for the first time. I invited three pals around for a 1600pt free for all with 320 points of Mercenaries. I (Loremaster Geo of Hoeth) took a relatively friendly High Elves list with an Ancient Stegadon, Warboss Squiddy brought an Orc & Goblins…
