WROHammer 2022, vol.3 Poniedziałek, Lu 7 2022 

7th and Games Workshop and Warhammer and WROhammer tancreddebeauville 23:01

Last Saturday as WROHammer we organised Warhammer Fantasy Battle 7th edition event in Bolter.pl, Wrocław, Poland. From my perspective first time with help of friends I organized event related to hobby I’m playing around 25 years – I’ve been organizer of after work beers only. With Marian we wanted to organize WROHammer two years ago, but pandemy destroyed our plans at least not forever. I returned to our plans after Archie wrote me message after seeing my post on – Warhammer Fantasy Battle 7th edition. Generally I wrote something, that why not meet and play with people from neighbour country? With example that Wrocław is not far away to Berlin or Prague. To make event even greater, I started looking for sponsors and place.

Our sponsors were:
– Arbooz (read below)
– Kromlech
– Micro Art Studio
– Paint Forge
– Spellcrow
– Tereny do Gier
– WROHammer

Arbooz has in offer following great stuff: Craft Toolbox, Gamers Grass, Roubloff.

I want to thank sponsors for great prizes and to our host which was Bolter – we thanks for many great tables with beautiful scenery and also for many help from Piotr! I want to thank to Alessandro – for best eye in case of checking army lists, to Marian – for patience in case of adding new sponsors to our diploma, to Remo for help in things I never did and for everyone who attend our event – we played in group of British, Czechs, Italian and Poles. It was great to meet you all on our event!

Our sponsors and our patron – prince Henryk Pobożny.
I know that I will buy something from them soon, those models are Oldhammer.
I tried to do some photos during our first game with Archie.
My second game with Paweł.
Before British, Czech and Polish after party.

We had good time on Friday, where our friends from Czech Republic and friend from Gdynia arrived – we just went for some beers and food in Wrocławska restaurant – which is close to Rynek. On Saturday we played all day, then we went for some after party to Cafe Artzat also close to Rynek. WROHammer 4th edition will happen in the future, yet at the end I was tired a little – still it was worth of it. There are a lot of photos from Marian here.

Lord of the Rings: Dunharrow part II Poniedziałek, Sty 24 2022 

Games Workshop and Middle-Earth and The Dead of Dunharrow tancreddebeauville 06:00

Yesterday I managed to finish the rest of my Dunharrow for my Middle Earth warband. First part is here. Now I wait for finding someone to learn rules and play first game. I’m happy that I know several people who can teach me playing this system.

So first army was finished this year, I’m happy with that.

King of Dead. To make him recognized on the field I gave him circle of flowers.
Maybe I will add him some red, gold and steel later.
Banner of the Dead.
Heralds of the King.
All forty models of infantry.
Let fulfill our oath!
Ghostly cavalry going ahead.
Whole army from the front.
In movie army of Oathbreakers cleared all servants of Sauron, in book it was different – they never came to Pelleanor fields, still played they role in defeating servants of Sauron.

 

WFB 7th: Bretonnia on Empire and Kislev Niedziela, Sty 23 2022 

7th and Bretonnia and Empire and Games Workshop and Kislev and Warhammer tancreddebeauville 14:02

Yesterday we played with Jędrzej our first WFB ever – for me it was a pleasure – first time I played with Empire and Kislev against Bretonnians (I play Bretonnians since 1997’/1998′). We played on 2250 points in Bolter.pl, Wrocław, PL.

Jędrzej Bretonnians.
My Empire and Kislev.

I did mistake and came into line of sight of Pegasus Knights – before I took one trebuchet crew.
Fly, fly!
Steam Tank advanced to take Grail Knights…
Lancers turned to face pegasus knights.
Knights Errant charged Empire Knights with they grandmaster Heinrich the Pious.
Grail Knights during charge did 8 wounds to Steam Tank.
Such amazing disaster.
Brave artillery crew held mounted squires.
Empire archers managed to kill pegasus knight.
Flank attack finally routed Knights Pannthers.
Knights Errants charged Steam Tank…
… and eliminated it from battle.
I’be back.

Summary:
– Bretonnian won this game, I believed that Steam Tank can do something, but after losing eight wounds during one combat it could just stay.
– Jędrzej played last time 8-10 years ago, but he still remember rules well.
– It was a pleasure to play that game.
– It’s great that playing other systems we still find ppl who played WFB and they return to game. We also find ppl who never played WFB and they start playing in it.

– we had some mindfuck with some rules, as we missed Krisu and Damian, still we had fun.
– Wrocław, PL – is open to play with ppl from other countries 🙂 .
– I know I had to paint more, thank you Marian for friendy reminder! To be shure, when I’m happy with painted batallion, Marian paints army.
– wish all great weekend!

Music I love, even if policy sucks I like Russians and normality in contacts with Russia and Bialorussia. Let’s remember tragic fate of Romanow family.

Lord of the Rings: Dead Riders of Dunharrow Poniedziałek, Sty 17 2022 

Games Workshop and Middle-Earth and The Dead of Dunharrow tancreddebeauville 11:25

„The Dead are following,” said Legolas. „I see shapes of Men and of horses, and pale banners like shreds of cloud, and spears like winter-thickets on a misty night. The Dead are following.””Yes, the Dead ride behind. They have been summoned,” said Elladan.

The Return of the King, „The Passing of the Grey Company”.

I got starter set with Dunharrow, Rohan and Mordor – I realized, that Dunharrow can be fast, nice project of people who betrayed Isildur and were cursed by him. More about them Lord of the Ring fandom. I finished some cavalry which were scouts during they live in Middle Earth.

I used several things to finish them, most of them from Games Workshop:
– as base Wraith Bone,
– contrast Hexwraith Flame,
– Stirland Mud for bases,
– Chaos Black for bases,
– flowers from Gamers Grass.

Now they wait for Isildur heir, to aid him and Gondor in time of need and to receive forgivennes for breaking an oath in past. They will be joined by whole host of King of Dead and his warriors.

 

Happy New 2022 Year friends! Sobota, Sty 15 2022

After several lockdowns I returned to playing many things like WFB, enjoyed playing Black Powder, found great ppl playing Bolt Action, had many great battles in Sharp Practice with Krissu.

Projects I have:
– Polish Semptember Army – 1939′ – all in prime,
– Polish Home Army – for Warsaw Uprising 1944′,

– Middle Earth – army of Dunharrow almost finished, some Rohan and Mordor to be painted in the future,
– Fallout, Wasteland Warfare – few bands,
– Russians for Napoleonic wars – Don Cossacks regiment and Dragoon regiment, few infantry battalions,
– Bretonnians and Empire with Kislev – to finish some more, to start Lizardmen army for Marian from Maniexite as he want’s to play my Lizardmen army 🙂 .



First years of plandemy made me even more lazy than before, second was even worse.
