Warmaster: Another project on my list at the horizon?

On Saturday I was in Munich with the Weiss Blaue Strategen, there was a Warmaster campaign day on the agenda with several connected games.
The current Warmaster Revolution version was played.

It started with a scouting scenario with 500 points - Ors&Goblins against Empire and I was allowed to take over the Orcs&Gobbos.

I was absolutely convinced by the rules and had a lot of fun, even though I lost by a narrow margin.
So I guess there's one more new project on my list, which isn't short anyway 😅


The orcs and gobbos march surprisingly well ordered towards the enemy, only the shaman has to have the orders explained to him again 😎
Maybe he just shouts his orders too unintelligibly, in any case the right flank always lags behind.

The Empire's halberdiers crash into my orcs on the left flank.

My orcs are losing ground, but the two empire regiments are not getting out of it either and more orcs are approaching on the flanks.

Shortly after, the halberdiers are wiped out, but then the Empire general gets angry and wipes out the unit of Orcs that the Orc Boss had joined, and with that the remaining Gobbos take to their heels.

Am Samstag war ich in München bei den Weiss Blaue Strategen, es stand ein Warmaster Kampagnen-Tag auf dem Plan, bei dem mehrere zusammenhängende Spiele auf dem Plan standen.
Gespielt wurde die aktuelle Warmaster Revolution Version.

Es ging mit einem Scouting-Szenario mit 500 Punkten los - Ors&Goblins gegen Imperium und ich durfte die Orcs&Gobbos übernehmen.

Die Regeln haben mich absolut überzeugt und haben einen Mordsspaß gemacht, auch wenn ich knapp verloren habe.

Da steht dann wohl ein neues Projekt mehr auf meiner eh nicht kurzen Liste 😅

Band of Brothers. 101st Airborne in 15mm for the Battle for the Normandy: Support Column done

Which way to the Front?

Supply jeep is on the way to my 15mm US Airborne.
I like rule where such small vignettes are not only ornamental but also serve a function - in this case to rearm units that are out-of-ammo.

Driver is a printed one, Jeep and passenger are Battlefront Miniatures, trailer is printed too, STL from Eskice Miniature.
Tarp is made from paper tissue, stowage is either printed, or from Battlefront again.






Deutsche Version
Wo, bitte, gehts zur Front?

Jeep mit Versorgungsgütern auf dem Weg zu meinen 15mm US Airborne.

Ich liebe ja Regeln, wo solche kleinen Vignetten nicht nur zur Zierde für den Spieltisch dienen, sondern auch eine echte Funktion erfüllen - in dem Falle Einheiten wieder aufzumunitionieren, die ihre Munition komplett verschossen haben.
