Kings of Oslo GT 25 – Tourney report

This tourney was played before the latest errata, so here command dice and points are pre-nerf. My list: 2300pts Sylvan Kin – “Brethren of Taal” I have built up this army in January, and have not really had time to try it out. I have played one game with a pure close combat version, and […]

Testing out the pikes – battlereport

I’ve gotten a few games in with pike-centered infantry lists. Unfortunately, there have been practically no fliers or cavalry in the enemy army. On the positive side, if the pike list can do well against lists where phalanx is useless, then it will do really well once phalanx comes into play. My first list was […]

Battle for Vogen 09 – drop troopers

With the rebel vanguard delayed, the planetary defence forces managed to stabilise the front line in the 7th district. The prepared defensive position discouraged rebel attempts to push further into the city. There were still fighting raging elsewhere, with stranded PDF units further out being picked off, or rebels terrorising and infiltrating the central districts.

Battle for Vogen 08 – Rearguard

After pushing through the chaos of District 13, the remnants of Jeager and Captain Scheider’s men had managed to link up with other PDF forces. Now about regiment strength, they were suborned to a Major Steinvik, the highest ranking officer of the motley group. Communications with HQ had been somewhat reinstated, and the group had been designated as Battlegroup Steinvik, with orders to regroup and hold District 7.

Battle for vogen 07 – into Ashshore

They split up in smaller groups and passed through several districts with only minor firefights. Most of the rebels seemed content on looting and pillaging in the anarchy left by leaderless PDF forces, moving about in smaller groups. Entering manufactorium district 9 however, rebel resistance increased. Scouts reported that PDF stores of weapons, fuel and ammunition were being raided by insurgent forces. Jeager radioed all groups to prepare for battle

Spring of War tourney report

With the latest CoK addition to Kings of War, a lot of new playstyles have opened up for all armies. Lots of underused units were buffed, and conditional inspiring becoming normal inspiring also helped a lot in opening up new builds. I have been trying to make my Norscan, almost all infantry-based army work for […]

Battle for Vogen 06 – Cut off the head

Major General Mattius Serpathion, commander in chief of PDF forces in Ashshore stepped out of the staff car, flanked by his body guards. Two highwayman APCs with PDF troopers had already unloaded, and the troopers were securing the area.

Battle for Vogen 05 – Relief column

A bullet from a sniper suddenly blew through a boarded-up window, interrupting his train of though. He picked up the comms unit again and keyed in HQ.
“I repeat, we are under heavy attack and have many wounded!”
“Negative 176. Hold position. 32/1 is enroute to reinforce.”
“But the rebels control the road! We must break out to meet them!”
“176, you have your orders. District 14 will be held.”

Masks of War tourney report

After a year of very little gaming, the local group organised a Corona-friendly tournament with mandated masks. I jumped on the opportunity for some socialising. I have been trying to make a very infantry heavy Norscan army work, both in 2nd and 3rd edition, but the play-style of big blocks of slow infantry really doesn’t […]
