WM - From Kislev with love (Dwarfs vs Kislev)

[Edmund2011]

Four player Warmaster game AAR.


During the Great Cold War, Tatiana the beautiful daughter of Tzarine Katerina Romanova falls in love with a mysterious spyman agent from Albion, and they start meeting in secret in the lonely woods near Kislev. But the spy had been stealing and selling dwarven technology secrets, so the Dwarfs in retaliation decided to capture Tatiana and use her as an hostage to catch the spy.

We used the following rules:

- Tatiana is a marker that can not move nor receive orders.
- She can be attached to any unit except: monsters, flyers or characters.
- If Kislev get Tatiana out of the table through Dwarfs edge kislev wins.
- If at the end of turns Tatiana is attached to a Dwarf unit Dwarfs win.
- BP rules apply as usual.
- Any other result is a draw.

Kislev plans were to attack hard with Army 2 through center or right, while Army 1 waited for his chance to find a gap in the lines and run fast with Tatiana to get the "touch-down".

Dwarfs plans were hold terrain and from there block and counter-attack the Kislevites.

Dwarfs were surprised by the center attack and although they fought well one army reached BP. At that moment things were really bad for them, but the Dwarf army still on the field fought with stubborn determination trying to get an against the odds result.

A fun game, quite quick because the table was small (that meant a shorter distance to cross, but more crowded of enemies). On a larger table Dwarfs have had even less options to stop the cavalry. The original scenario was intened to face Kislev against Chaos and assumed a more mobile attacking enemy to intercept the Princess, that could have been possible in bigger table.

Nice to see a Warmaster game (especially such an unusual match up).

Thank you for taking the time.
