Warmachine resurrection




The Warmachine: Tactics kickstarter got me, Lasse and Lars talking about Warmachine. We played the game back in 05-06 for a season. We couldn’t remember why we stop playing. The game mechanics where fun enough. We decided to start again. Luckily I had saved my old miniatures thought some have been lost. We bought the rulebook and started gaming almost once. I had a collection already and Lasse paints really fast.  Lars is trying a Horde army for variety. Hordes wasn’t around when we played last time.



Counting my old miniatures. My daughter thought I needed a fairy.

Hill54/III 2013, a late after battle report



A late report from the excellent Hill 54 tournament. I had misplaced my camera used at the event.

I played my Germans as panzer Lehr. I last used the Lehr list 2 years ago in the doublet tournament at Hill 54.

I have painted 10 halftracks and nebs for the army, slowly filling out the options for the list.

I choose not to use any big cats. The new boost in AT the allies received made me rely on the humble panzer VI chassis for armour.  






I played against 7th armored dessert rats, 2 x British airborne, US TD and US 3. armored. 3 won – 2 lost. Both defeats where 3-4. 

The mix of opponents had me used my mechanized force both offensive and defensive. The 10 bases strong grenadiers units with tank hunters was at very durable unit.The Halftracks was great on the attack, supporting my grenadiers with MG fire. 

My 2 armored units work well as support units. They did fail against the hordes from US 3th armored. Random deployed didn’t help focus my fire.

 I missed a recon unit (I don’t have any) and the Grill didn’t do anything cheap mortar count not have done.
