With it being Valentine's Day, I'll be in big trouble if I'm as late home on my second games night which is tonight, so Hashut and I have agreed to keep it intimate and go for 250pts (and a time limit, just in case) We're also keen to cover "heroic actions" and might a little more this evening (since I'm still learning and Hashut is getting back into the swing of things) which is why I've put up an alternate list to the first and obvious one. W1 - Halbarad (spear) 12 Rangers of Arnor (spear) W2 - Ranger of the North (spear) W3 - Ranger of the North (spear) W4 - Ranger of the North (spear) However, bearing in mind we're looking at heroic actions, I wondered thoughts on this force... W1 - Halbarad (spear) 3 Rangers of Arnor (spear) W2 - Ranger of the North (spear) W3 - Ranger of the North (spear) W4 - Ranger of the North (spear) W5 - Ranger of the North (spear) W6 - Ranger of the North (spear) W7 - Ranger of the North (spear) 3 more might points/heroes to play with but 6 models less... What's everybody's thoughts and any particular scenario anyone would recommend for this kind of short game tonight (with the objective being learning heroic actions!) |

Hmm, I would suggest using the first composition. You still have 4 heroes with whom to call heroic actions, while still having some numbers in your army. I do not know what scenario to recommend, but if you use a smaller board it will be a shorter game. (I would have recommended reccoinottre, but you played it last time.) |

I agree, a smaller board this time is a must. Maybe this week keep the board length one movement turn from shooting distance (so approximately just less than 3ft) I think we'll just roll for the scenario to be honest! whafrog wrote: If the objective is learning heroic actions then the second one is better...but don't expect to win Haha I don't think I'll expect to win any game for quite a while yet! Winning last week was quite a shock, although I saw why it happened. I expect Hashut to come this week with dwarves again, with either Dain or Balin and mostly dwarven warriors with shields (after his experience last week) as opposed to iron guard or dwarven archers, who were all systematically eliminated from the game. Think I'll take both options and see what he comes up with, but yeah, it's not overly competative! Will do you proud and field my Rohan soon Whafrog, I promise! |

Well, I went safe and for the first option... What an intense game! I'll write up the report and post pics shortly. |
