Big Warhammer Fight

Post by Fritz »

We were kinda talking about this the other night, so I thought I'd get the ball rolling. If you are interested, list what Warhammer armies you have and want to use and how many points you can bring. If you have multiple armies and you don't care which one you end up using in the actual battle, list them all. That way we have more options for balancing the sides and/or we can loan out armies to people who want to play but don't have an army on hand. If you interested in playing, but don't have an army, make a post saying as such, so that you will be counted.

Ideally we want to try and separate it into good vs evil as best we can. Once I have a better idea of who is interested and how many points people can bring, I'll make a list of sides and how many points each person will be permitted to bring. For my part, I have Vampire Counts and can bring up to 3000 points. Unfortunately my Wood Elves are still most in the boxes.

For the scenario I was thinking of using something I saw in the latest White Dwarf. Basically we use 5 objective markers. 2 markers are placed in the deployment zones, the other 3 equally spaced across the center of the battlefield. Instead of simply trying to control them at the end of the game, victory points are awarded at the end of each turn. On the first turn, each objective is worth 1 point each, at the end of the second turn, they are worth 2 points each, on the third, 3 points each, etc. To claim the victory points you must have a unit of at least a unit strength of 5 within 6". If both sides can make such a claim, then neither side gets the points. For the middle 3 objectives I was also considering using a few of the special terrain features found on pages 100 and 101 of the rule book (maybe an arcane monolith, an acropolis of heroes, and a monument of glory?).

Only if they are fanatics for good! I have no earthly idea how many points I have, if we par down to say 5,000 points I can probably write two army lists.
