Well as the name and Matt's blog probably point out, I'm more than a little irked by my warband's performance on Monday. I don't think doing bugger all in the two most crucial shooting phases of the game helped any. But i have decided to re-use my starting warband with some slight alterations, the problem is I'm not sure if I'm happy with the changes or not. I've decided to swap out a looter for a dwarfen troll slayer for when i eventually get into the inevitable wanton slaughter of my bandits 'iwsomb' that is the combat phase, however this leaves me with less shooting to actually whittle down the enemy thus more will make it into combat with me and it also gives me less chances to loot any fallen enemies.
For my warband (which goes by the name of 'peasant vengeance) i have decided to arm most of my models with axes, most being as many as can have them, giving them a woodsmen feel. The background I'm currently fluffing out (ouch) is of a
woodsmen group that had to turn to banditry to survive due to increasing beastmen raids, one of the members is a dwarfen slayer who has lived with the group for many years. He recently wrote to his brother a runesmith journey man to ask for assistance, but while waiting for him the group
received word from a mysterious man of mystery who implored for them to help him stop a growing evil in the far reaches of the empire. So after a weary months travel through the empire they have finaly reached the great ruins of morkhiem and are ready to win fame, fortune and glory...
Monday's session will be rather interesting as i have to work out how to get the party back together after two of them wandered off into the forest and one stayed behind (couldn't make it). However the direction i wanted to take the campaign means there is no chance of them ever meeting again (this was unintended) so i have quite an issue to solve. At least i have the weekend off work to think about it, the downside being i will be in tremendous pain from having my wisdom teeth being yanked from my head.
Also i am pleased to note that Matt has yet to catch up to my rank in Vegas II, even after playing for hours with Tim. I've started playing fallout III again which has been fun, those mutants are still uncanny with their ability to sneak up on me.
I went on the gamesworksop website last night to see what comes in the Tyranid Ravenger package and the site has really gone the way of White Dwarf, which was a huge disappointment to me as they both used to be really great. Then again Paul left a long time ago so i guess i should be used to it by now.
Anywho i should probably go do something else for awhile now,
Good night and good luck.
