Worcester Wargames 40K Doubles .

By


It's that time of year again! The Six Up Save lads are painting last mintue details and packing our carry cases in preparation for another one of Worcester Wargames awesome local Tournaments.

This years contest comes with a twist; the doubles teams will be paired up at random! From what we are given to understand Andy (the TO) is pairing people up with respective armies (Imperium with Imperium, Orks with Orks etc) but we wont know exactly who our teammates are until the morning of the Tourney.

The day will consist of 3 games, one person on each team will be playing Maelstrom objectives and his teammate will be playing for standard objectives on the same board, so it will be an interesting mix up of normal game rules.

I'm taking my Redeemer's, but due to lack of time / laziness I'm just taking the exact same list as my Six Up Save League. It's hardley optimised for competitive gameplay, but its fun, fluffy and means I don't have to stress about painting anything.>_<

Elite - Furioso, Frag Cannon, Heavy Flamer, Droppod.
Elite - Death Company (x7), Jump Packs, Power fist, Powersword.

Troop: Pink Horror (x16)
Heavy: SoulGrinder, Harvester Cannon, Phlem Bombardment, Iron Claw.


Martin's Eldar

 I've decided to stay away from the temptation to take an army of Wraith Knights/Guard with D-Weapons, so I've used my League list with just a small change in the hope that whoever I get paired up with brings all the big guns, giving us both the speed of my list plus the heavy firepower of theirs.

 Ive taken a Craftworld Warhost which gives my units a guaranteed 6" run

 Within the detachment Ive got:
Windrider Host (Giving me Shred on my Shuriken weapons once per game):
Skyrunner Fareer
Vyper with Brightlance, Shuriken Cannon and Holo-fields
Skyrunner Warlock
3x 4man Windriders, all upgraded with Shuriken Cannons

 Aspect Host (All units in this formation get +1 BS)
4x Dark Reapers and an Exarch. The reapers are equipped with Starshot missiles and the Exarch has an Eldar missile Launcher.
4x Fire Dragons and an Exarch
5x Warp Spiders and an Exarch
Sam's List

 Taken lots of FW goodness for a hopefully well rounded list due to the unpredictability of a random partner and different missions.

 Sorcerer
Unmarked
Level 3 Pysker to roll on Malefic, Pyromancy and Telepathy
Spell Familiar
Terminator Armour
Burning brand

 two squads of 5 marines
Rhino with Combi Melta and Bolter
Melta gun
Combi Melta, Lightning Claw, Melta Bomb on Sergeants

 Nurgle spawn x 1
Nurgle spawn x 1
Nurgle spawn x 1

 Fire Raptor with Reaper Cannons
Relic Predator with Plasma Destroyer
Rapier Platform with Cyclothrane Conversion Beamer

 Should have a bit of everything whilst retain an Iron Warriors feel to the list

    It can safely be said that everyone had a great day at the Tournament!! A massive Thankyou to Mike from Code40K and Andy from Worcester Wargames for running the event. Six Up Save memebers did extremely well on the day with Sam and his partner winning, Martin and his partner coming in 2nd and Dae and his partner taking 3rd. Just to add to this Paul's Army took the prize for best painted and he also won the wooden spoon award!!

    Congrats to all!!

Confessions of a Warhammer Wife

By
Confessions of a Warhammer Wife Bruce’s obsession with Warhammer was only revealed to me during our second year of dating. We had been together a long time by then – had even lived together for the majority of that time while at University. And still I didn’t know about this one aspect of Bruce’s nerd-dom. When Bruce and I first began dating I was fully aware of – even besotted by - his nerdy credentials. Together we had played hours of Halo 3 and Mario Kart, swapped manga and even visited the cinema for a solo late night screening of Star Trek. Yet this did not prepare me for what would become one of his main loves in life. It all started back in 2012. We had been living separately back at our parents’ homes after University – me in Yorkshire, he in Worcester. I would often travel down to visit him and on one such occasion I was told of a new friend Bruce had made through work. Damien. They had apparently bonded when Bruce had taken on old model – a Tyranid Warrior I beli

August Apocalypse

By
Hi All, Its Martin. Our very own Sam, with the help of Matt and Andy from Worcester Wargames put together an Apocalypse game that saw the mighty Imperial armies battling against every Xeno army going (I played my Eldar on the Xeno's team). To allow this to happen, all Xeno's were made allies of convenience to prevent us turning on each other! From Six Up save other than myself, we had Jamie 1 and 2, Bruce, Sam, Dae, and Matt playing in the event. The tournament was a 1 day main event with a sub mission played the night before. Each team had a 'Warlord', Dae for the Xeno's and SUS's newest member Jamie2 for the Imperium. It was their task to coordinate their respective teams towards their targets and agendas. I would say both did an awesome job at keeping their teams in order and directing troops to where they were needed. Each player had 2000 points to spend on their chosen armies but they could only have 1 LOW / Gargantuan per list and within t

Black Maru's Order of Redemption.

By
Hey guys, Bruce here with the first of (what I hope to be) many short snippets of background, history and goofy fluff pieces for my Blood Angel successor Chapter, "The Redeemers" aka "Black Maru's Order of Redemption". I'll start off by highlighting some of the key characters, mostly HQ's that play a big part both on the tabletop and in the ongoing story linking my games / campaigns together.  The Redeemers are a successor Chapter of the Blood Angels, although they are a chapter in a very loose sense. Due to the way Black Maru (who we will discuss in further detail shortly) chooses to organize the Marines under his commend, The Redeemers are only considered a chapter for the sake of record keeping at the Adaptus Administratum. Internally referred to as an Order rather than a Chapter, The Redeemers are almost unheard of, partly due to the secrecy of their mission, but primarily because they have never done anything especially noteworthy or noble.  The
