Worcester Wargames 40K Doubles .



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.>_<

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

Confessions of a Warhammer Wife

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

Batman - Harley Crew vs Riddler Crew

Hey all, its Martin, With my Riddler crew fully assembled and painted, I was itching to have a game of Batman, and Bruce took me up on the offer. Bruce took the Global Plan Strategy and so selected the 'Ambush' Scenario. His team became the attackers as he had a higher model count. I had selected the Fast Advance and Patrol strategies, allowing me a larger deployment zone, and also allowing me to deploy 1 model outside of this zone. In hindsight, the Fast advance was a bad idea as it reduced the areas I could deploy my Clue Markers!! I would have been better to choose a strategy like 'snitch', to cancel out one of my opponent strategies; in this game it would have forced a random scenario again. Being the attacker, Bruce had to divide his crew into 2 teams and deploy 1 team within 10cm of the table edge on 2 opposite sides of the fantastic board created by Andy from Worcester Wargames. Within each of these teams. I then deployed my crews inside a 20cm wide area ru

Death korps of Krieg

Hello everyone, Sam here, it has been a while since I have posted on here and wanted to share what I have been working on. My first loyalist (shudder) army. Also my first guard army.  Over the past 10 months or so I have been slowly building and painting a Death Korps of Krieg army using the seige of Vraaks book. I have been attempting a unit a week but like we all do my attention and attitude towards painting blows hot and cold. I was origionally drawn to Krieg due to their post apocalyptic / menacing appearance and thought that they would be perfect for a renegades army. However the more that I read and planned the army, the more interested in the Krieg themselves that I became. This lead me to my first order of death riders and the other more krieg units. This is not to say that i wont experiment with renegades as i have found some wicked looking zombie krieg models that I may incorperate in the future. I expect this army to play in a totally different style to those I currently use
