Slowing... up!

The blog has been dead silent for a few months, and this time the hobby front was kinda silent too. We ended our Mordheim campaign as a club, and we're going to start another one early October. A part from that, nothing to be seen on my workbench and on the wargaming table: 2025 was a very busy year until now!

Today I took the brushes for the first time since forever, so it was the time for a post! Hope to retake on the blog soon.

May your Choppa be sharp,

Amarok

The first guys for my Mordheim Warband for the upcoming campaign. This time I went for a black primer paint. Some ragout on the background

Hooves from hell 💀

Periodically I keep some distance from the blog, probably because it needs some time to be properly managed and even when I would have some contents I struggle in create a post about that. I still have in draft two posts from our ongoing Mordheim Campaign, and we played two more scenarios. However, they shall know no fear: the blog is still here and we're past its fourth birthday in January 2025.

Just a little note to share: I finally built my Chaos Knights. Ready to ravage the Old World!




I was struggling on how to use both the wonderful maces in the kit and still have a musician. Then I realised I was dealing with some potentially mutated Chaos Knights...

"O Captain, My Captain!" - Our great return to the City of the Damned

Here we are again on Amarok's Lair! Three dry months for the blog, however not at all three dry months for the hobby. Summer's gone, and we just entered the greenest month of all (more on that later). However, between some holidays and various events for our families and ourselves, Grimbeorn and I managed to do something very big... the Biggest Battle We Ever Played. I'll add a link to that post as soon as I complete it.

Just yesterday, however, we started a brand new Mordheim campaign within our small club of friends. Our great return in the City of the Damned for an organized event generated from the idea of replaying from the beginning the first ever Italian national Mordheim Campaign, Necromantic Storm (in Italian Tempesta Necromantica).

WoV #7: Öldenhaller Manor

Seventh battle of the Wolf of Vengeance campaign.

The hints found in Dörthagen lead to Pfungzig, a rich city in the Province of Averland. But before following the tracks of the Adventurers is now time for a direct strike to the enemy: the Oligarchs.

The Sheep Campaign - Game zero for the Empire player

Second battle report for The Sheep Campaign 🐑

I cite from the Orc battle report the same introduction:

In the same afternoon we managed to play both games, since they were quite rapid. For right's sake, I have to admit that the new The Old World rules were not quite followed literally, since we played two semi-skirmish games, or however mostly with reduced units, to simulate how our Characters are just at the beginning of their career. No problem, though: we'll integrate the rules while we reach a normal point cap.

So, here we go with the first game for Grimbeorn.
