League Night

I was astounded at the response I got from players wanting to play the league. When I sent out an interest check e-mail a few weeks ago, I only got a handful of responses. Enough to order the basic 8-man kit.
I was not expecting to get 15 players, with a few more that haven’t completely made up their minds yet.
Wow! I guess that’s a product of having lots of new faces at the store – not many of them are in our Google group and a part of the e-mail list. I fixed that though, I took down e-mail addresses and sent out a link to the Google group to all of them last night. They should be in the loop now.
Lost of players! |
Down at the far end of the room, two guys were playing a non-league game, trying to learn their battle engines. Dave (Khador) vs Caleb (Cryx). Dave’s had his Wagon for about 2 weeks now (maybe longer) but Caleb’s Wraith Engine had arrived just before he got to the store. Both of them seemed pretty happy with the learning process, and I was very excited to take a picture of the store’s first game with battle engines on both sides of the table!
I got a game in against the only other Hordes and Skorne player in the league, Hawk. The game was fun, my pMorgs versus Hexeris. I lost by scenario. Pulling a refused flank type maneuver on a scenario where there are two control points was a bad idea. It was nice to put some painted models on the field and get a game in!
His converted Titan Gladiator was pretty awesome:
Too cool! I'm really looking forward to playing this Thursday in my first league game! I'm hoping that with all the Cryx players we'll do very well indeed.
