Doubles, Kislev Ostland Alliance – Game 1 vs Undead and Abyssal dwarves, Ransack

I recently joined a one-day doubles tourney together with my friend Eirik´s Ostlanders. We were designated as team “Mostly harmless”, which fit with our outlook.

Hunt for the artifact – Game 2 vs Undead, Push

My second round opponent had an amazing “Greenskin undead” army, with ork skeletons and mummies, goblin ghouls and troll werewolves. There were so many awesome conversions in his army, and a great and original theme. He got a well deserved (and extremely close) second place in “Best army”. His list was approximately: Vampire Lord on […]

I was scheduled to play against Varangur for my first game, but my opponent couldn´t make it on time, so I got to face off against Abyssal Dwarfs instead.
