Cool Nik !!   I am building a Teutonic Ka Nigits army also. Looking forward to seeing this one played out, how are you mixing the WMA and WMMA, duh never mind. WMA rules and armies build using WMMA right  :P

Does that mean the army is twice the size.... :-[
I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

wow that is long expected batreport for me... since you started with your araby army. Too much questions around my head...

Which armylist are you using? Jerusalem and salahadim?

are you using WMM reaction charges or did you choose to use skirmishers rules?

How many points?

Did they are near Karnak?

What will be the consecuences of a chrisitan victory?

How many beers will you consume during the battle?

What is the animal faster of the world?

Did I turned off the oven before going to work today?

as you see ... to much questions around my head

Yep  :)

Yes - and no idea...I'll add them up later  ;)

QuoteDid they are near Karnak?

Miles away...consequences of a Christian victory: much quaffing and back-slapping I suspect  :D

QuoteHow many beers will you consume during the battle?

Now that is a good question - how many would you recommend?

Me - on a cheetah...base-jumping  :d

You'll find out when you get home - or to that charred, smouldering pit where your home used to be  :o

Quoteas you see ... to much questions around my head

And hopefully enough answers in mine  ;D

Thanks for the detail answers, looking forward to see your pendraken figures in action!

Let me notice, that in WMM if you choose reaction countercharges then skirmishers rules from WMA are disalowed. I am sure you know that, but is a very forgotten rule and I like to highlight for the people who could read this!

Happy battle then!

Anyone know where I could get a copy of the WMM rules and army lists?

nikharwood

Cool - a useful reminder  :)

Points-wise, these are about 1000 each: I make the Crusaders 995 & Salah-ah-Din's mob about 1010

On the basis that you didn't recommend a number of beers for this battle, I'm going to make a command roll for another beer as soon as I finish one...I'm going to start with CV10  ;)
