Campaigns

Man I love them. Davich, Sagisu, Dragonauthor and I played one this weekend. We didn't finish, but it was pretty fun. Sorry, I didn't take any pictures :(. I definitely need to refine it, but it was bearable.

I combined a couple rules I found on dakka dakka, I sort of forget who they were from though, sorry. I really need to get better at this :P. Pretty much what we did was make a map and take tiles and had battles. Expect for tyranids we all had a reserve of 4000 points that we drew up before hand. Our guys could die and gain experience. For each battle each person rolled a dice and multiplied the results by 250 and that was how many points we could use.

Tyranids however started with 1000 points and got more for the points they destroyed minus the points they lost each battle. Ha ha one battle I had 500 points of scouts terminators, Cato Sicarius and a predator take out 300 points of hard hitting tyranids before escaping off the board so he couldn't get us.

All in all, it was fun. And everyone should play campaigns when they have a free weekend.


P.S.
I found the posts I got the ideas from

More than a hundred views!

Ha ha I know it's not too impressive, but I'm happy to see that my little blog has had other one hundred people look at it.

I've been thinking about trying to get a campaign started with my friends, that'd be fun. I'd have to figure t how to get everyone together to do it though.

Mass Effect 3

So anyone that this means something to knows that it came out today. Now I am not the one who owns the console or the game, Stormtrooper does, but I can't wait to play it! As you can probably guess, you might not hear from me in awhile ha ha. ME1 and ME2 were amazing, and I don't think I'll be disappointed with three.

Well, on the Warhammer side... Dragonauthor, Stormtrooper and I played a combined 4500 game. Stormtrooper using his Angels Sanguine and Dragon and I using a combination of Tyranids, Space Marines, and some Tau. Dragon and I won by the way. It was a crazy game and just for fun so I didn't make a battle report out of it, I guess I do need to make another one of those... Hm... Well maybe after I play Mass Effect 3 some.

Signing out,
Igloo

P.S. Tau Shas'o battlesuit commander is boss. I ran it with a plasma rifle, missile pod, shield generator, hard-wired multi-tracker and Iridium armor. The thing survived a round or two of devastator fire! That shield generator is a good investment for your commander!

Sorry, I've been slacking

Well nothing interesting has happened on my part, and probably won't for awhile. I'm pretty much waiting for tau to be updated right now, I really want to play them. That along with spring track starting up again equals very little time for my armies. Maybe if they were at my home I would get stuff done, but dragon author and I keep our guys up at our brother's house (stormtrooper1980).

Well... I should probably get back to class... Bleh.
