Title: [WM] Myceanic warlord vs Vampire count
Post by: jchaos79 on 05 September 2016, 06:42:03 PM
Well, the two winners then face each other.

What I could remark:

- 2 unit of ghouls attaking to 4 unit of spearmens (3 3 6+) in column. Finally the ghlouls were anihilated, but the 4 units of spearmen were reduce to 2 units of 1 stand and 1 unit of 2 stands. So incredibly effective the ghouls charging, it seem like 2 units of VC had neutralize the half of myceanic army !!

- Vampire count fail to charge with the cavalry the remains of the ghoul massacre in order to get near the breakpoint.

- Meanwhile Myceanic Hero lead to flank the army of skelletons and undead making a charge from the back.

- Myceanic vicotory

So the Mycenians won the battle, but the undead got more reinforcements!

Its good to see these small WM battles. They seem very different to the large cavalry heavy ones that we used to play.

The size makes them look like DBA.

I really must get to warmaster somewhere in the future, have read the book and want to try it, but no time for a lot of new projects. (And i just started messing with KOW)

@petercooman, they are little solo games of less than 1000 pts. I did not tell yet, becuase could sound like extreme nerdy, but I am playing a solo tournament... by the way I am winning in pts, sportmanship and probably win in better paint army :D
I think warmaster could be very fun to play in 500 pts and also in 5000 pts battle.

@Fred, I am glad you enjoy them! In my humble opinion warmaster is not only large cavalry games. Those kind of list are legal and makes you win but slow the fun of the simulation of command an army. Anyway I have seen shoots of some big games of your group of players and are impressive.

If you haven't already looked at this, you might find it interesting.

Its a mod that makes marmaster a smaller faster game, but still keeps all the flavor of the original.
