Russians and The Silver Bayonet 21:54
On Sunday/Monday night I managed to do five and half hour tournee and painted whole band of Russians for The Silver Bayonet skirmish game.
Summary:
– five and half hour at night and I have one more band finished, so now it’s time to again read rules and play first game.
– I have to varnish them – as they are metal models.
– models if I’m correct are from North Star.
Armia Czerwona and Australia and Bolt Action and Finlandia and Germany and Warlord Games 23:30
Today we played a game where were two sides – attackers and defenders and convoy of truck which was main objective – for one side to defend it and to the other to destroy. Each truck was worth four order dices in case of counting victory – for attacking side for destroying each, for defenders side for moving them from one side of board to another,
On attacker side were my Finns and Franek’s Soviet Union, on defenders side were Kriss Australians and Karol’s Germans. Each player had 750 points platoon.
Summary:
– the Australians and Germans won this battle, all trucks survived but non left the road.
– I losed my Sturmi antitank gun when it started duel with German Panther.
– the bravest man was from Kriss scouts, fighting bravely in bulding in the middle.
Black Powder - Napoleonic Wars and French and Prussian and United Kingdom and Warlord Games 20:53
On 27.02.2022 there were a battle of French and Prussia versus English – continental Europe side dominates over Anglosaxons this day. Battle took place in Bolter.pl, Wrocław, Poland.
Main target for both armies were to secure crossroads.
Summary:
– I was observer there, as I was too late and my Russians didn’t fight this epic battle.
Games Workshop and Middle-Earth and Mordor and The Dead of Dunharrow 23:09
Today I played first game in Lord of the Rings with Łukasz as my mentor – we played scenario with five tokens on the board which should be secured – I guess they were some ancient tombs as Death of Dunharrow came to defend them against evil servants of Sauron. It was my first game and I know I want to play more. I’m still don’t remember most of things, but with following games it will be better and better.
Thanks for master Tolkien for writing whole universum of Middle-Earth – I read Lord of the Rings trilogy three times – now is time to read it in English. Hobbit in English was good experience (not sure when I have my original of this great book). Silmarillion and Unfinished Stories were also master pieces. Thanks to Peter Jackson for great movies – I will stay with those works and will not touch any new productions, which are politically correct – I’m not.
Summary:
– thank you Łukasz for first game, I know we need to play another game 😉 .
7th and Empire and Games Workshop and Kislev and Skavens and Warhammer and WROhammer 22:58
Today, in that sad day from the morning we played a very friendly game on 1526 points with Sambor Skavens – it was a test of some interesting works of Skaven engineers. I took Empire (belowed Middenheim – City of the White Wolf and Bergsburg – city of goddess of mercy Shallya) and Kislev (stanitsa – Wrotizla), as I have them magnetized and was able to put box with them easily to the bag.
We played on 1526 points as our friends living in Prague organize event with such points limit.
Summary of our struggle:
– thank you Sambor for great game again,
– thanks for Bolter for place we play,
– still learning this army.
Summary of 24.02.2022:
– I just wish peace beetwen Russia and Ukraine, as most of ordinary people wants to live in it, I wish international friendships which are priceless as any other. We managed to find great people in Prague, but as Pole living in Wrocław, PL I wish to have friends everywhere – Germans, Russians, Ukrainians, French, British, Americans etc. – hobby is shortest way to find interesting people. You meet person, you have a chance to knew different cultere, traditions, cuisine etc.
– to be sure I’m right side and I can say, that I enjoy meeting people of different nations – in my life I found friends in other nations, especially Russians, Moldovians but also Spanish, Dutch, Belgians, Denmark, Germans, Bialorussians, Ukrainians. Found Czechs and British (or Archibald found me). We are all the same as a people.

7th and Games Workshop and Warhammer and WROhammer 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!
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.
