Nananananana... Batman!

Howdy Sixupsavers, Bruce here with a quick spot on the (relatively) new Batman Minis Game that's gaining some serious popularity lately.

Damien and I first bought into this game way back in the BETA phase, when the core rule book came as a terribly translated Spanish PDF. We really struggled with the rules and didn't really have the right kind of terrain to fully get to grips with it.

However, when the hardback version of the rule book came out, our Local Game Store "Worcester Wargames" created a totally bad-ass new gaming board that was perfect for Batman. With renewed vigour, Damien and I dug out our old models and started trying to learn the rules.




Just look at this beautiful bastard!


After demoing a few games and interest started picking up, the other Six Up Save guys started getting invested too.
Now we are all feverishly getting our crew's painted up and ready to rumble, so in the new year we'll be hosting a Six Up Save Batman Minis League. In the mean time, here's a few pics of who's got what. :)


Bruce's Joker and Harley Crews:




Martin's Riddler Crew:



Jamie #1's League of Shadows:



Jamie #2's Crooked Cops:
And a few other side projects



Sam's Bane Crew:



Damien's Batman team:


Charles' Batwoman Team:



And special guest starring Rachael's Gotham Sirens:


That's all for now folks, but coming up soon we'll have some Batreps and some WIP pics of Andy's second Batman board at the awesome Worcester Wargames. Then in the new year we'll have our first Six Up Save Batman League. Who knows, if we can get enough people in Worcester interested, maybe we could host a BMG tourney?

As always, you can leave us feedback below, grab us on Facebook or just come speak to us in store.
Peace.

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
