As soon as I get my camera back (hopefully with the memory card and the pictures) I'll start adding them to the battles!

One more Battle report coming up 3k versus OnG from a combined effort by Finlay and FrIday. Though this will come from memory only as I didn't make any notes what so ever..

  ------------------

Deployment
----------
 

OnG took first turn

Turn 1 - Orcs and Goblins
-------------------------
 

Pistoliers vanguarded forward pre-turn
Most Orc and Goblin units stumbled forwards.
Magic was dispelled
Shooting took out the Great Cannon

Turn 1 - 2nd intervention army of Altdorf
-----------------------------------------
 

Captasus moved behind the house, Flagellants and Pistoliers advanced on the right flank.
This released 2 Fanatics towards the Pistoliers

Magic did not do much and neither did the shooting

Turn 2 - Orcs and Goblins
-------------------------
 

Some units like the Wolf Riders, Night Gobos 1 and the Big Uns failed their animosity and stayed put.
Due to the NG 1 and Big Uns doing nothing Magic was neither much this turn.
Shooting how ever took out 4 pistoliers and the Mortar.

Turn 2 - 2nd intervention army of Altdorf
-----------------------------------------
 

Charges were issued, but the flagellants failed to reach their target.
Magic was again not really present besides taking a few gobbo's out of the picture with flamestorm.
Handgunners tried to take out the boar Chariot 1 to make the spider flee but they didn't succeed to kill it.
Crossbowmen tried to whittle down the Trolls 1 Unit.
In combat the Knights lost a few of there men to the Giant doing 1 wound back.
The Pistolier on the other hand managed to break the Spear Chukka 2 crew, destroying the war machine.

Turn 3 - Orcs and Goblins
-------------------------
 

Spider charged the Handgunners, Trolls 2 charged the flank of the Flagellants. Wolf Riders turned around to chase the Pegasus Captain.
Rest moved up to the Empire Battleline.
1 Fanatic died.

Magic and shooting took out the Engineer and some troops.

Combat was bad for Empire, The Knights got crushed by the GIant and the Flagellants took some heavy casualties.
However the Handgunners only lost a few and held firm against the Spider.

Turn 3 - 2nd intervention army of Altdorf
-----------------------------------------
 

The Swordsmen charged the flank of the Spider, The Pegasus Captain charged the Rock Lobba 1 and the Pistolier moved towards Rock Lobba 2
With the Wizard Lord moving out of the Crossbowmen unit.

Magic was low this turn

Shooting was bad without the Engineer and the Helblaster took it self out. Crossbowmen could not impress the incoming Trolls.

Combat wasn't great but not good either. The Swordsmen and Handgunners held the line versus the Spider.
The Pegasus Captain destroyed the Rock Lobba, but the Flagellants got destroyed as well.

Turn 4 - Orcs and Goblins
-------------------------
 

Trolls 1 charged the crossbowmen angry about the bolts still sticking in their hides.
Both chariots charged the flank of the Swordsmen.
The Wolf Riders charged the Pegasus Captain.
While the others moved on with the Trolls 2 unit taking some damage by the wood.
NG1 released 2 Fanatics one toward the Life Wizard just not making it and the other killed it self in the woods.

Again magic did not do much.
Shooting this time did also not much.

In combat the Orcs and Goblins had almost as much luck.. Still the comabt continued with the Swordsmen and the Handgunners (now down to only a few) still held the line.
The Pegasus Captain on the other hand broke and got caught by the wolfriders.
The Crossbowmen held firm against the Trolls

Turn 4 - 2nd intervention army of Altdorf
-----------------------------------------
 

The Lone Pistolier charged the last Rock Lobba. The War Altar turned to face the inbound Giant.
The rest of the line tried to hold with the Halberdiers not keen on facing the Big Uns just yet.

Magic saved some Swordsmen but was otherwise uneventfull

The Lone Pistolier did great at breaking another War Machines crew utterly destroying the wooden contraption.
Combat in the Line carried on for yet another turn with the troops now getting down and tired.

Turn 5 - Orcs and Goblins
-------------------------
 

The Big Uns charged the Halberdiers, the Trolls 2 charged the Greatswords coming out of the wood
The Giant charging the WarAltar.
The fanatic infront of the Life Wizard killed him self in the woods like his mate did before him. While the other fanatic wandered off the board.

Combat this turn was great. The Handgunners and Swordsmen both broke from combat now and both got chased to death.
Where the 2nd Boar Chariot pursuit into the War Altar.
The Crossbowmen lost their combat and also got caught fleeing.

The Greatswords held out.

But the damage was so extensive that Empire grabbed what they had and fled the battlefield to regroup and take them greenskins on another day!

Note from the writer: I didn't have any notes kept, nor had any pictures taken. Memory is a bit clogged after near 2 weeks, but I hope this gives a good enough view of how the battle went in main lines.

I didn't have any notes kept, nor had any pictures taken. Memory is a bit clogged after near 2 weeks, but I hope this gives a good enough view of how the battle went in main lines.

It looks like you remembered it really well!


Great report!
Hey, I could still beat up a woman!

Also modified the old reports to fix some broken pictures... Hyves is not that very good keeping the same URL for pictures. They swamp once in a while on IP adress in the url.

Love to read your battle-reports. It shows you fight some good battles! Hate to see you lose a lot of them, though :(

If you played closer to the Randstad we could grab some games together :)

I loose them mostly due to tactical insights still, but I'm learning and also the Eurobash gave me some good insights on army composition. This last battle I finished was still with a pre- eurobash list that I had already written off for use :)

I might look into coming over a day orso so we could do a battle once, but need to see when it is viable to do so.. Also got kids here and a Girlfriend that needs to be supportive about me going.. Best option is once in 4 weeks (due to rotation weekends for the kids) but that one weekend is also my GF's free weekend (see works during the weekend normally). But I certainly think we can arrange something! Also Leasecar with Gaspass for the win! :)

Fixed broken pictures once again... though it seems Hyves fixed to problem with IP url's, hopefully they are now static adresses so I won't have to fix the links to the pictures another time soon.

Also I hope to add another Battle Report soon! (need to practise before the next Eurobash!)

Taking out 3 Halberdiers and my Arch Lector!!! :( Though it didn't kill my War Altar.



First, nice rapports.
 
The quote above is interesting as to my knowledge shots fired vs chariots in 8ed no longer requires randomization and counts as a single model with split profile. Thus, it would be impossible to have your arch lector killed and your chariot surviving..

Furthermore, as your arch lector is the only rider of the chariot, it would presumably run amok. 

Any thougths on this?

If it were a normal chariot.. but this is a chariot with a character (lord) and thus it's treated as character and mount. see BRB-105, it follows all the rules for ridden monsters. save for the fact they don't roll for the monster reaction table.

As for running amok... as far as I know the thing just keeps sitting there on the spot.
From the Empire FAQ:
Q. If the Arch Lector riding atop the War Altar is killed, is the War
Altar removed from play? (p53)
A. No.

But it's not very clear on this as there is no crew on the waraltar... I think this may well be an incoming addition to the war altar to add a crew member to make it more inline of the rules for chariots / characters that use them as mounts (like the lion chariot of HE)

As I asked on warseer if someone knew if the WarAltar might get a crewmember they also pointed out that my thinking of the War Altar being dead in the water isn't correct. You should still use it as a normal chariot.
Which is a little wierd without a handler, but ok :)
Will keep this in mind next time my AL dies and still use my War Altar for it's impact hits and tie a unit up.

There is really nothing in the rules to prevent you from using the War Altar in a normal fashion, even after the AL has been killed. Presumably, it is being moved by the will of Sigmar - or simply the horses. However, the only damage it could do would be from impact hits and the attacks of the horses. Nor could it use the magic power of the Griffon.
It is not enough to have no ideas of your own; you must also be incapable of expressing them.

Hi Steg
Thanks for correcting me on this subject. I will just insert a handler on the war alter so that the death of the lector is not the end of story for the war alter.  :-)

You can do this for the looks, but keep in mind that the handler you place doesn't have a profile and can't do anything then.

Doomwheel

WLC

But to summ it up:

Played Battle for the Pass scenario with some scenery rolled for, but none had a real impact except for the Frenzy tower. Which let him fail a few charges.

* War Altar is good with providing Hatred to combat units close by and getting that soulfire off next to the Cannon was nice aswell! To bad the damn Cannon did squat..

* Magic: Offensive was okish My opponent had to make alot of decisions to dispel  while on the otherhand letting some other good buffs through. Defensive felt like I was underperforming.. needed to use my dispel scroll early on and had to count on my opponent not making his casting roll or IF on 13th spell as I ran out of dice fast.
Also my spell selection was crap as I used Beast the first time (and not choosing Wyssan...misread the other buff spells to only characters and those turned out to be in the wrong UNIT...)

*Shooting: only had a great Cannon and Helstorm (with engi) and both didn't go great.. fluffed alot with my cannon and the templates of the helstorm could have been better... 1 time 3 templates on arty dice of 10!!... so I reroll.. misfire.. then a 6 on the misfire chart.. bye bye helstorm damnit.

* Combat: Was rather good, really impressed by the Demigryphs as they rolled up a complete unit of skaven slaves and with some help a Doomwheel. I had my characters (BSB and WP) deployed in my GS which didn't see much combat (besides the Doomwheel) and would have been more usefull in my Halberdiers as they did most combat..
Detachments worked awesome as road block and extra combat utility.
Did forget the +1 to hit a few times from the Hurricanum (but that thing was a bit invisible on the field (only the base as I have to build it yet..)

At the end of turn 4 we called it due to time..
I only lost the Helstorm, 1 unit of IC Knights (5) and 1 detachment of 10 Militia.
He lost some weapon teams, his gutter runners, Rat Ogres, Doomwheel and a complete unit of clanrats including his BSB

Result:
Empire lost: 305 points
Skaven lost: 963 points

Crushing Victory to Empire!!

HUZZAH!!

Well they did it on the turn they charged in... and 3 Demigryph Knights versus about 40 slaves.. I think it was good no matter the point allocation.. It would have been less of an impression if they needed 2-3 combat rounds to do it..
