AoS night at the South London Legion - Wednesday 20 December 2017

[Nico]

Something ominous on the SkyreCam

If you're looking for Age of Sigmar, Shadespire,  40K, Bloodbowl, Necromunda or other games in London, then head down to the South London Legion any Wednesday afternoon.

This Wednesday will be our dedicated AoS night for the month (but feel free to rock up and play other games too).

There will be the usual mixture of 2,000 point games going on. If you have a smaller force, then someone should be happy to give you an introductory or demo game as well.

AoS

Last week, Archaon took on Ben Savva's @Age of The Erstwood phenomenal Skryre Mechanicus army. It was a bad match up for the cunning rats, although a mortar took out my Gaunt Summoner turn one.

 

 

The focus has switched to the GT Heats - not long to go now. We're also in the early stages of planning #BigBash which will be an all day narrative megabattle between several of our armies - thinking 10 February - Archaon and 4 Exalted Greater Daemons vs Nagash, Mortarchs and 6 Flappies - what's not to love? 

 

Conor has played a few games with his Disciples of Tzeentch army already and is playing again. Craig and John are bringing Khorne. Are #CraigRolls a thing of the past? Tom is making a special guest appearance from Brighton with Nighthaunt/Darkling Covens.

 

I’ll be trying out Archaon within the Fatesworn Warband for the third time vs Alex's Clown Car (and Alex has used Archaon this year so knows what to expect).

 

 

Runedaddy has a go at Derpghar. I finally found uses for that oversized axe and Kairic Acolytes.

 

 

 

Bloodbowl

Another classic game of Bloodbowl last week - I killed two of Rob's Skitz Skatz (would have been 3 but for his travelling apothecary), but even his heavily depleted team managed two one turn touchdowns to win 3-1 and take back the lead in the league over Matt. Rob taught me how to defend against one turn touchdowns after the game.

 

 

 

Who will lead over Christmas? Marathon (Rob's movement 10 Gutter Runner somehow avoided death by foul) has scored 6 Touchdowns!

 

New players are also welcome!

 

Shadespire

I taught Craig the game in 20 minutes two Fridays ago and he loved it. Very close game. Ben Savva then played Craig. The only way is up for me with my 3-games 3-Losses record.

 

Should be a perfect second game to fit around a main game in an evening. Or you can just play 4 games back to back .

 

40K

Nathan and Simon Weakley went to a one dayer on Saturday.

 

Lots of excitement from Sami, John and others for the Blood Angels and Dark Angels Codices.

 

I'm flip flopping between 12 Dragoons/Baliistarii or a Cerastus Knight Atropos for my Raptors/Ad Mech list.  Sami is doing well with the Necrons! Ben Raven, Nathan and Simon Weakley seem very excitable about Tyranids!

 

It has slowly dawned on me that I already own a significant amount of models for a Daemons list or Thousand sons (might finally use 30 Tzaangor!). Shame the Exalted Greater Daemons in 40K got nerfed into oblivion, but hopefully can use them as regular versions.

 

Craig is leading the way with his Ad Mech - awesome painting!

 

 

One of the cohort of Bens owns this chap.

 

Necromunda

Simon Froley is leading the charge with James hot on his heels. I’ve dug out my old Van Saar gang! Very exciting game. Will be going strong in the New Year.

 

I salvaged some metal Van Saar and other dudes.
