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.

Jericho Reach: First Encounters

The galaxy was surrounded by the Hive Fleet however those whom arrived by space travel found that the Fleet parted to allow slender corridors for travel into the Jericho galaxy. However the Tyranids did not so much as stir or attack the space craft.  Each army sent their favoured heroes and their chosen acolytes. On the mining planet of Rheelas the Howling Griffons led by Chaplain Titus within his great Dreadnought armour were the first to engage in battle with the Necrons led by Overlord Naile. However both commanders understood it would do no good to exterminate each other. They both strategically retreated to fight another day. If Khorne was watching he would be greatly angered by the lack of bloodshed. Overlord Naile was able to claim the relic weapon known as Void Reaper and within the mining facility found a Tomb World filled by his Laharl Dynasty brothers.  The Howling Griffons were then ambushed by the Thousand Sons led by the Daemon Prince known in Low Gothi...

Tarsis 4, hosted by Geno52 and Incom Gaming

Today Sam went to Cheltenham to join in with 19 other people on a narrative 30k campaign day. This post will review the day, show off some of the armies that attended and detail how each game went for The Iron Warriors.  First of all I wish to say what a fantastic day that I had. I drove down with Ben Fletcher who was using his warp cult and allied knights and was prepared for a few games of heresy. What I got was three amazing games with friendly and fun opponents. To top this off there was a fluffy element to the whole event running throughout. With people bringing lists which showed off their legions strengths and not following the standard net list builds that you sometimes see in a 40k event. The event was well thought out and well ran by Tom and Stu. Loyalists vs traitors and a winning team, not individual. Which brought about a sense of comradery. Here is the list that I took. I made a 2000 and 2500 point list and used the latter twice and the former once.   Game one Fo...

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 any...
