Come join us in the Land of Adventure!

So with some new things on the horizon I have tweaked my game fluff slightly to better fit what I have going on better on the table top. Things have gotten a bit more sci-fi for me after getting rogue trader.  My game world is now a techno fantasy western much like the cartoon Bravestarr.  In this world both science and fantasy fit perfectly.  I hope you enjoy where this is going to go.  I know I am looking forward to it. The Civil War, Westerns, and the Pony Wars have been some of my favorite genres after Oldhammer. Incorporating them into my new world is giving me a lot of ideas and inspiration for the future.  I'm going to try and play some very cliche scenarios, these will go perfectly with the scenarios in Rt as well.  Some of which are quite humorous.

A fresh look

I had been inspired by JB over at Lead Plague ever since he had Zhu draw him up a new blog banner.  I felt it was time for me to get it done as well. We needed a fresh look around here.

Befitting the comic style of the blog, Zhu has really taken my theme and ran wild with it.  Zhu you are a master of your craft.  You can see Black Vasken and his army lumbering across the chaos wastes. What adventures await them...only the dice and a comic report will tell. ;)

Enemy of the State

Ya that's right the Will Smith, Gene Hackman movie.  Well I was watching it the other night, and then in the final scene I got a bit of a surprise that I had never seen.  His kid is reading a White Dwarf, well I don't think it is an actual White Dwarf it looks more like a small insert catalog.  When he turns it I think it has the Ork Garagant on the front like the cover of White Dwarf 181.  However the back is a definite Games Day flyer. The White Dwarf Date and Movie Date are three years off though so not entirely sure that is is 181.

Anyway I thought is was interesting.







  

Oldhammer Comics Presents Another Exciting Adventure

I had intended to play this game solo. BulldogLopez had something else in mind entirely.  What we developed was a crude play by technology at hand battle.  I had everything in my basement.  I would send pictures of the board to Bulldog with added descriptions.  He would then reply by text with what his orders and intentions were for the turn.  Things actually ran very smooth.  It also gave me time in the interlude of waiting for his orders to write the battle report on the spot.  Very helpful that. ;)  Well I hope you enjoy it as much as we did playing it.  On to the ACTION!

The return of Santa Orka

Sadly my last report from THE SECOND ANNUAL NORTHERN VIRGINIA AND OTHER STATES REGIONAL GRAND OLDHAMMER TOURNAMENT!! Otherwise known as NOVAOSGROT!!!

I took command of three squads of space marines:  A scout, tactical, and assault.  They were decimated on the initial ork volley.  I grabbed a little intestinal fortitude and some elbow grease and forged on to the objective.  What follows is their account...through the soldiers eyes.  Enjoy!

The Battle of the Ping Pong Ding Dong

So here is the next installment from our wargaming weekend.  Fought this time between me and Blue in VT.

Vasken has seen these lilly elfs off from Combat Burgers and all he wants to do the rest of the weekend is go back eat and drink himself stupid.  I mean who wouldn't with those hawt ass waitress's

All these Elfs have to do is cross the River Ping Pong and disarm.  It looks like something dumb is about to happen...it always does!

Why oh why can't Black Vasken just go have fun at Combat Burger's...man the life of a chaos warlord is not all it's cracked up to be!

Well January has been busy around here

New reading material, destroying painting goals and much much more...

There was a Battle Report!
