What was the last game of Fantasy you played? Dont need a full battle report, just a casual summary will do. Feel free to add as much or as little detail as you wish and pictures if you took any!
Last Friday we did a 3 player Triumph and Treachery game. I had my High Elves, my friend had his Dwarfs, and my other friend finally pulled out his Tomb Kings I helped him start.
We played 1500pts each and made it to round 4 but called it due to it being near 2am (we started late haha) fun times I was in a slight lead by about 50 vp.

Tuesday 26th (last night) Played my Lizardmen Vs Orcs and goblins with a guy that I've not seen for a couple of years. He's working Thur-Sun in a gaming club so cannot play on a Friday, I usually cannot play on a Tuesday... anyway big block or savage biguns flanked by some orc boys. 10 pig riders and 3 bolt throwers, 20 night goblins and a HUGE spider. level 4 shaman, level 2 shaman, Orc BSB and a night goblin hero against my Slann (high) scar vet, 2 skink priests and tetto, 2x10 skinks with javelin and shield, 42 Saurus, 18 Temple guard, Bastiladon, 3 rippers, 3 terradons, 1 sally. Really came down to be using arcane unforging to get rid of the shrunken head and diverting the 50 odd savage orcs using the sally, flank charged them with my steadfast saurus, he fleed, I didn't catch, another charge which due to him not being steadfast meant he fleed again, this time off of the table and I failed to catch him. One thing I did note, I really need to bubble up my units, things like bastiladons are useless outside the range of the general. Game before that, Friday 22nd, VC vs Bret, I was outplayed and I just couldn't finish off units so he won by a landslide. We played a grand army and I used 2x 15 KotR alongside 9 Grail knights, 4 trebs which couldn't hit a barn door this game. I was experimenting with the list, it didn't work but I now know why Game this coming Friday, hopefully get to post here. Greg

I played on Sunday against Westy - we took a break from our recent series of Dwarves (mine) vs Skaven (his), as I fielded my Warriors of Chaos instead. It was a great success as I absolutely smashed him even though I'm very rusty with WoC. And that was despite Be'lakor and his accompanying Chimera doing very little (a few spells, but nothing major - the Chimera didn't even make combat thanks to a river and Howling Warpgale holding it up!) and two units being Dreaded 13thed into Clanrats. My Hellcannon teamed up with some warriors to whup Westy's typical Stormfiends unit, then chased off a Verminlord single-handedly (single-barreledly?). Westy badly messed up his deployment (I had far more drops than him) and lacked the chaff to get into the right combats, so I think next time he'll bring along some more rat swarms/giant rats to address that. I think this is the first game any of my sacrificial warhounds has survived until the end, which shows how badly things went for him.

Last game was a 3 player triumph and treachery game, 500pts per side. Doing a build up campaign with the keep from this site. Nice to get quick games in but the cards sway the game too much at that pt level. We play most Thursdays, next week we go to 1000pts!

The last game i played was on the last thursday. It was a 2 vs 2 with 1000 points per player. My nightgoblins were teaming up with another nightgoblin tribe and facing an alliance of tomb kings and dark elves. In the first round my big nightgoblin block was hit by a screaming skull catapult, failed their rerollable leadership 9 test and run off the table. Two of my wolf chariots hit the dark elf general with his doomfire warlocks and rolled a 3 for impact hits (both together). We managed a slight comback when my mangler squig hit the necropolis knights and witch elves and my team mates nightgoblins beat the skeletons. But in the end it was not enough and we lost๐ญ.

Sunday. Battle report is here if anyone is interested. Battle report you are getting in way too many practice games. Some of us prefer to roll with untried lists lol (just jealous of course ๐). Nice fight. I love lees green and white knights. Does he have a blog or somewhere where he posts shots of his models?

Unlike yourself I am useless at making army lists so I need practice games to tweak them. My WoC list for Riotville was stomped into the ground several times before I had sorted my list. All of Lee's armies are a joy to behold! His Empire force is THOUSANDS of points of gorgeously painted figures. Lee does not blog or post online shots of his armies. He prefers to live vicariously through my blog ;0)

I played a game a few weeks back but didn't bother doing a battle report because it wasn't the most interesting game and ended up with the challenge fiasco in the rules thread It was my mono-Khorne WoC Vs Karl Franz-led-Empire. It ended with a dogpile in the middle which I broke from and had most of my army destroyed, pretty much because my big hitting pieces were unable to attack.

it's been way too long... online gaming via Universal battle doesn't really cut it!

So, two games last night.
Khorne WoC list that I used my VC against (I'm just putting few models together for fun right now) 2k game. Won by more than 1000 vp. Next game, same list against Dark Elves. Lost by over 1000 points.
Lots to learn I feel.

Played 1500pts Dwarfs v. High Elves last night. Battle for the Pass scenario. A nice way to start off the weekend right after work. Played at our game shop, though we used both my friend's terrain he made, his mat, and some of the game store's terrain. I had a LVL 4 (Lore of Metal) and LVL 2 wizard (Lore of Life), a BSB with Silver Steel armor + Great Weapon, 20 Sea Guard, 20 Swordmasters, 3 Bolt Throwers, and 2 units of 5 Reavers with bows and spears.
Dwarfs had: Belegar Ironhammer, Master Engineer, Thane, 20 Warriors, 2 units of 10 Thunderers, Gyrocopter, 20 Ironbreakers, and an Organ Gun.
First round saw very few casualties, High Elves Targeted the Gyro but it passed EVERY ARMOR SAVE... Highelves took around 3 casualties in Seagaurd.
Second Round was more interesting High Elves pulled off Transmutation of Lead on Ironbeakers rolling a 5 on Belegar turning him into gold and about 10 more Ironbreakers, Organgun killed all but 4 in the seagaurd unit which had the lvl 4, and copter took 2 casualties while a bolt thrower took 1.
Third saw Transmutation take out all but 3 breakers, thunderer casualties, and 3 swordmasters.
The Fourth round saw swordmasters charge the warriors with thane, dead gyro, and Enchanted blades on the swordmasters (ranked 6 wide) pretty much taking out nearly all the warriors + thane. Dwarf player called it after that. Pictures below:
