6th and 7th and Bretonnia and Dark Elves and Games Workshop and Warhammer tancreddebeauville 22:03

Settlements in northern Bretonnia from time to time were burning, they citizens dissapeard to be never saw again. On the order of the King Louen Lencouer baron Louis de Beauville started investigation in coastal area of Lyonesse to check what is going on and who is responsible for acts of destruction and thievery.

My lord, the men sent to the village of Lens have not returned, it is already the second day. Baron looked at his knight and spoke – tell the men, that they must be ready, we will march out in the morning.

A foggy morning in the village of Douai, knights and men-at-arms are preparing to set off – when suddenly a crying girl with a teddy bear ran into the village – what happend? Damsel of the lady Elena asked in a soothing voice. They came from nowhere, they catched villagers. Gotrek stumbled out of the tavern – they’re here – Druchii – he spat on the ground – then let’s put them to the ground!

WROHammer: Final of the league 2022/23 Sobota, Maj 13 2023 

6th and 7th and Bretonnia and Dark Elves and Dwarfs and Games Workshop and Ogres and Warhammer and WROhammer tancreddebeauville 19:49

Today we played final of the league started last year – more details HERE. We played in Bolter and we had a lot of fun enjoying our games. From me I want to say big thank you to Krzysztof, for taking seriously idea I throwed on tournament I organised last August, many thanks, you did great job!

Today there were five of us from eleven players involved – many thanks to Rafał – organizer of MISFIRE that he took place of person which cannot be there.

I played first game with Alessandro, my Tilean friend of many games – we had Draw 10:10, then I played my second game first time with Rafał and from start I was thinking to not do mistakes, I losed 15:5 – it was great game anyway, hope we will play again. For my third game I became photographer on my will.

Below is mix of photos of our battles:

Summary:
– the first place belongs to Alessandro, second to Bartek and third to me – we had great fun, to be sure we plans another league, but first we need to take some rest after that.
– thanks to all participants and I hope to see you again, as I find enough ideas and power to organise more smaller WFB events, probably for smaller points as well.
– we turn back to 6/7 edition, at least we have such plan with some limits.
– of course, I want to go to Prague from time to time to see and play with my Czech and German friends there.

 

WFB: Exploration of Albion – a fight for lost comrades Czwartek, Kwi 20 2023 

6th and 7th and Bretonnia and Dark Elves and Dwarfs and Games Workshop and Warhammer tancreddebeauville 21:21

„One more beer for our friendship said Rurik Brassgaze, one more said his new fellow, young knight Louis de Beauville! – camp was full of Bretonnians knights and they servants and Dwarfs they meet during travel in wild area of the Albion. Both parties agreed that they will rejoin they forces, to achieve they mission together, both were tracking Dark Elves who catched they kinsmen in area close to small port Neue Reikdorf in Albion. Both sides had many common in tracking they enemy”.

Today we played smaller game in WFB with army books from 6th and rulebook from 7th edition. It was game played two on two with 600 points per gamer. Together with Alessandro Dwarfs we played on one side, on the other were Dark Elves of Bartek and Krzysiek.

Our deployment, of course Bretonnian Knight prayed to the Lady in hard morning after drinking Bugmans beers.
Right flank and the middle. Yes, there are a lot of commoners – I love those models.

Dwards hand gunners runned away from Cold One Knights charge, to fight another day.
The end, remnants of Bretonnian and Dwarfs runned back to the camp with Dark Elves pursuing them during night.

Summary:
– good to hear before game, that I’m looking happy – strange, as I’m looking for some interesting job – not remote anymore.
– It was nice game and we will repeat it with maybe more points, next time we want to just give a try to old Mordheim.
– we are open to play smaller points, I’m still thinking about some form of campaing, where everyone have a castle and three random places like a town, village, mine, shrine, forest etc. so troops can be a little bit different – still no idea how to organize it.
– next WROHammer will be probably something different to previous one, but anyway, we have to talk about it, in small team.

„Do you smell they fear? Yes, it’s delicious – we have more captives, but we should go for more – release Cold One Knights, they smell them! Yes, let’s start hunting for hummies and davies, run! Catch them all!”.

WROhammer vol. 2 (EN🇬🇧/PL🇵🇱) Sobota, Lu 29 2020 

7th and Bretonnia and Classical Warhammer and Dark Elves and Dwarfs and Empire and Games Workshop and Orcs&Goblins and Skavens and Stary Świat and The Beastmen and Undead and Vampires and Warhammer and WROhammer tancreddebeauville 20:56

🇵🇱 Kolejna odsłona WROhammera – tym razem gospodarzem był „Profi”. Zagraliśmy w dwóch czteroosobowych drużynach: żółtych i czerwonych. Każdy z uczestników wystawił armię na 1000 punktów, korzystając z zasad 7. edycji WFB. W skrócie: w pierwszej grze celem było zdobycie przedmiotu, w drugiej utrzymanie go, a w trzeciej gracz, który go zdobył, mógł wykorzystać jego moc.

Graliśmy w Planszóweczce na Bielanach Wrocławskich.

🇬🇧 Another round of WROhammer – this time hosted by “Profi.” We played in two four-player teams: the Yellows and the Reds. Each participant brought an army worth 1000 points, using the rules of 7th edition WFB. In short: in the first game, the objective was to capture the item, in the second to hold on to it, and in the third the player who had claimed it was allowed to use its power.

We played at Planszóweczka in Bielany Wrocławskie.

🇵🇱 Podsumowanie:
– Wielkie dzięki dla Profi za podjęcie się organizacji wydarzenia, a także dla Planszóweczki za udostępnienie miejsca do gry.
– Dziękuję wszystkim za świetną atmosferę i za przybycie!
– Nadal nie mam pewności, co najlepiej wystawiać w Bretonnii na 1000 punktów.
– W grze z krasnoludami miałem trochę szczęścia, ale popełniłem też błędy, które później próbowałem naprawiać. W starciu z orkami dużym błędem było nieprzekazanie przedmiotu Rycerzom Graala, a w grze z Mrocznymi Elfami zawaliłem kluczowe szarże.

🇬🇧 Summary:
– Many thanks to Profi for organising the event, and also to Planszóweczka for providing the venue.
– Thank you all for the great atmosphere and for coming!
– I still am not sure what works best for Bretonnia at 1000 points.
– In the game against the Dwarfs, I had some luck but also made mistakes that I later tried to fix. In the battle against the Orcs, a major mistake was not giving the item to the Grail Knights, and in the game against the Dark Elves, I wasted some crucial charges.
