A few more wins under the betl

 It's been six rounds so far with a win each time, including some solid decisive victories as shown below:




And whilst Bjorn is in training for his new spell, we've brought in some fresh blood, some young blood actually. His name is Steve and he likes to call himself a pirate. With any luck he might lose an eye and start fitting the name.



Our new Henchmen - Bernie the Warrior

Hailing from upper North Queensland, Bernie has come in with some trusty knives, unfortunately he left his scooter at home so he's no longer a registered eshay. He does still like to stab folks who get in his way though. 






Third time is still a winner

Coming in hot with not only a win, but a decisive victory and the secondary objective completed. Our time against the fiends of chaos has proven to be fruitful.





Jim the Man is proven to be man of the match once again, earning his role as a Marksman.



And now the warband has leveled up, along with all of the current henchmen. I think it's time to recruit a more melee focused friend to go with all the archery.


 

Round 2 is another Victory


Round 2 sees another win for the Bogans, this time with some cheeky work by the exchange student Bjorn.



The victory screen in all its glory!



Man of the match goes to Rudy this time around for taking folks down and dishing out some damage, both with his pistols and his trusty greatsword.



The cheeky victory this time came from Bjorn who snuck around the back and stole the enemy idol, then with room to spare went up stairs to try to take out the sniper who nearly dropped our new captain.



Thankfully no injuries were taken this round.

 

And the first battle begins

 It starts off with a wyrdstone rush, and our first view of the enemy comes from Bazzo:



Sadly during the fight with these two Bazzo went down and had to be rescued by two of the Jims, one of which fell in the valiant effort. The result was that Bazzo gets a 5 day timeout to deal with the loss of an eye, truly earning him the title of Scrapper



Here are the Jims coming to support their Captain, knowing full well the danger they are both in, one of the Jims earned himself man of the match by taking out two of the filthy rats in question.



On the other side of the field Elsie and Jim get into a bit of a biff with an angry rat and quickly take him down and out. heading off to go and loot some valued wyrdstone, even if it makes you a bit crazy.





Ultimately the battle went to the Bogans who knocked out most of the other team for the victory. Sadly though, not enough wyrdstone was collected, we'll be needing much more to pay the property manager this months rent, and that guy is an angry bugger with no sense of humour at all.






We'll be back next time with an update on our new recruits to replace the ones on the bench, check the main page for the up to date details on who's doing what.

The boys are back in town

So, here i go again. I'm going to start a fresh Mordheim band and post a battle report after each round. 

I'll make the warband tonight, probably using the Mercs, but not certain just yet. And i'll write up two reports, one being a pre battle with introductions to everyone, and the next being the post battle.

Mission 3 - Wyrdstone Rush

The noble Sisters have had a request from their superiors to deliver as much wyrdstone as they can manage to keep it out of the vile hands of the worshippers of chaos, or the half rat half man beasts known as the Skaven.

To that end, the hunt is on for shards, during their travels they have encountered yet another warband, i suspect this might happen frequently.

The sisters begin deployed around their wagon and must roam into the dark and twisted alleys all the while being wary of the enemy close by.

Round 1 - The new recruit, Hannah, another novice, begins by scouting forward, as she does a foe is spotted, it is one of the vile denizens of chaos. At least a worthy battle. Carol moves forward and is ambushed by their leader, the Magister Telork. She is struck mightily and perchance might not survive this battle. Fortunately Wilma the Swift comes to her aid and it seems the foul leader will not survive long. The others quickly do their best to catch up, but are not quite able to make it to the fight.



Round 2 - Hannah has to decide to push on to gather wyrdstone alone, or return to the group. Given her novice rating, it becomes the wise decision to return. One of the foul mutants known as Steiner steps into the fray but Wilma's apt skill at avoiding blows saves her from any damage. Carol calls upon the might of Sigmar, encompassing all present and swiftly deals the killing blow to the Magister. She then hastily comes to the aid of Wilma and the surrounding of the mutant Steiner begins. The combined efforts of Carol, Wilma and Velma see Steiner out of action, but not before a henchmen joins the fight. Caterina heads around and surrounds him thus ending the round.

Round 3 begins with Hannah seeing a shard of green within a safe distance, she runs over and collects it, moments later, the morale of the enemy is put to the test, and given the loss of their leader and mutant they rout and the match is over.

Whilst the objective of seizing wyrdstone was not accomplished, the battle was not without merit. Sigmar saw fit to reward the Hammers of Judgement with a small stash of the foul substance, and the experience gained from the battle saw both Carol and Velma raise in level.
