Warhammer Fantasy - Tournament Report

 Hello All,

This weekend attended a Warhammer Fantasy Tournament at Red Dragon, time for some 6th edition action.

I took a Chaos army with 3 groups of warriors, 1 chosen with Mark of khorne, giant and some fixings.


Game 1: Search for the Cursed Book vs Strogi


Here's the set uo for game 1, can't really see but objectives are down the center my plan to send the khorne berserkers down the middle and crush face.


The vampires move up and summon some skeletons infront of the right warriors, but the berserkers are frenzied and forced to charge off on an adventure.


Berserkers flanked by ghosts, while the giant fights ghouls, and vampires. He rolls yell and ball so auto wins by 2 dripping the vampire.


Next round things moving around trying to get into the objectives. I got my demon flesh hounds to charge in and save the berserkers from the ghosts, they have magic attacks so can get em. The giant jumped up and down and got the ghouls.


Vampire time, more ghouls charge in to fight the dogs but a bit to late.


These bats flying around are becoming very annoying!


Ghouls fighting the giant, they kill the poor guy but he falls on them killing like half!


Getting diwn to the dregs now. 


Remains of the ghouls charged the berserkers, causing them to run off in the wring direction again! My Chaos lord charged out t9 beat up the bats. In the end I contested 2 objectives, and 1 of those was real so its a draw! Very fun game.

Game 2: Heroic Defense vs Goblins


Here's the set up for this one, bit of a different deployment. I have to defend the objective by the berserkers this time.


Turn 1 advancing some bits, mainly trying to get the warmachines and goblin 'knights' on the right.


Chariot vs dogs, dogs win!


Goblin knoghts were afraid of the giant and just ran! Otherwise the goblin hordes close in.


Slowly moving around, dogs get 1 war machine.


Trolls come in, time for a real fight. My lord has a reding blade doing d3 wounds which is keeping me in it.


Missing the last few turns, the goblins give it a good go and killed lots of guys, but I am able to keep the berserkers in place. So its a sin for me.

Game 3: the Ritual vs Necharch vampires.


Set up, facing lots of magic and and banshees. I got to get 650 points into the enemy deployment which is kind of crazy.


Advancing up no time to hold back.


Terrible picture taking, but ghosts tried to charge the giants but out of range, then got killed by dogs. Graveguard charged my warriors, who held but betsekers counter charged and crushed em. But as you can see magic doing major damage.


Skeletons with the vampires charged my warriors and push them back, but leaving an opening in the lines.


Giants and berserkers crush the knights. Now it's a race, cam I get enough guys in the zone and keep them up, or will banshees and magic wipe me out.


Chariot blocking lots of stuff heading back, I'm feeling confident.

Banshees chasing down killing guys like crazy.

I blocked with the giant, but the big vampire was able to leave his unit on the last turn, and put the dread spell on my unit with the Chaos lord. The banshees were then able to panic him off. 

Very close fun game, I think of i had thought to bring my lord out of the unit I could have won maybe.


Anyways that's the tournament.


Thanks;

Mike
