Club Discussion » No Club 12th May 2024 » 16/4/2024 8:26 PM |
Hi all, date for the Kings of War (and Kings of War curious) players - I'll be running the annual Southwest Clash at BIG on July 20th and 21st of this year. It's £31 for two days, at 2,375 points.
We usually get about 30 players of all levels from across the country. There's tickets available currently, drop me a line if you're interested. I would be happy to lend anyone from the club an army, if required.

Does that mean it’s all Ectar’s fault when I don’t have a fully painted Saxon army in 2022?
Club Discussion » Merry Christmas and Happy New Projects for 2021 » 14/12/2020 11:39 AM |
That sounds like a busy year Rob. So on the basis I don’t have to hold to anything and it will all change by 2nd Jan...
Mantic Rats, this is now starting to feel like a proper obsession, but rats will be Manticed.
Saxons, really want to get these guys done for WAC so they look as nice as the Vikings on the other side of the table.
Tidy up loose ends, Fiefdoms and Ironjaws need finishing and Abyssal Dwarfs and Basileans need some extra bits.
Lots of Burrows and Badgers and Northumbrian Tin painting joy.
Loads of gaming, and also hoping to get quite a bit more writing in, so may not be as productive on the painting front!

All sounds good. I think masks sound very sensible and have one on order.
Happy to support the cleaning at the end, I work from home so late finish isn’t an issue.
Payment wise the account transfer is probably preferable, not least because cash is generally being used less so getting the exact change could be a bit of a challenge in the current climate.
I have been wondering about numbers, Will there be a need for table booking? Just a thought.

Arranging Games » KOW campaign 8th December » 27/11/2019 9:31 AM |
Hi all,
I just wanted to start getting numbers for the next campaign evening so I can work out matches. Remember, it’s 750 points, 2 games and bring a favourite monster to gaming club night😀
Can you let me know below if you will be able to attend.
Thanks
Ed
Arranging Games » KoW Dec the 8th » 14/11/2019 4:24 PM |
Absolutely, this separate to your 750. Feel free to choose whatever nasty you would like🙂🐉🐀
Arranging Games » KoW Dec the 8th » 12/11/2019 12:08 PM |
Hi all,
It’s a while before next month but I just wanted to flag a couple of things:
Points: I had a little reflection on this and we will stick to 750 as planned.
BYOM: so your recent confrontations have woken up a few of the islands denizens, and they ain’t happy! For those that have a monster can you bring one (just one Steve) along. It doesn’t need to be in your army list and it can be from any force, even if it’s not current been 3rd eded. Don’t worry if you haven’t got any. All will be revealed.
I’ll put a message out closer to the time to get numbers, etc.
Ed
Arranging Games » KoW kick off on Sunday😀 » 08/11/2019 7:50 AM |
Morning all,
Looking forward toiling a start on Sunday. At last count we had 9 players signed up for Sunday.
Aim for Sunday is to hand out packs, decided to go old school, and assign territories based on who’s there.
All the games should be on 4 by 4 tables, including the three player game.
For this week we’re playing 500 points and the aim is to get two games in.
Don’t worry if your army currently consists of wooden rectangles!
It would be helpful if you could confirm attendance below.
Thanks.
Ed

Glad to hear at least the rules have shown up😀 I found a similar issue with points and the penitent laminate was working on were removed!! Thems the joys of new rule sets🙂
Club Discussion » Hello Big 'Uns » 31/10/2019 10:45 AM |
Hi,
I’ve got a 2k Stormcast kicking around and a bunch of Warcry snake guys on the painting desk, as well as some genestealers. So happy to indulge in some GW games in the new year.
Ed
Arranging Games » KoW campaign - next steps » 30/10/2019 9:04 PM |
Definitely disappointing.
Are you around on Sunday? I’ll bring a copy of the goblin lists for you so you have a starter for points and stats.
Hope it all goes ok, literally the first time I’ve done something like this😟

Arranging Games » KoW campaign - next steps » 30/10/2019 4:52 PM |
I won’t disagree with that😀
Arranging Games » KoW campaign - next steps » 30/10/2019 2:41 PM |
Hi All,
I thought I would give you all a quick update, I am intending to get a campaign pack pulled together and on Facebook by next week, but in lieu of that:
I might have miscounted the number of sign ups and we have an odd number of nine. I’m not bothered by this as I have some old WFB rules for games with more than two players, so on any of the campaign nights we have odd numbers I will run a more than two people game👍
The first scenario on 10 Nov will be Dominate, second scenario Pillage.
To make this a proper campaign I have drawn a map and assigned some territories. On the first night I’ll assign territories randomly to players and that will determine who you play for your first game.
The aim of the game is to win territory and there won’t be any complicated geographical rules about who you can challenge, but in the event of a tie break the winner will be the person who has amassed the greatest number of territories that connect directly to each other.
The plan will be to run games every month on the 2nd Sunday until the end of until the end of Feb. However, if you can’t make it feel free to play to play campaign games outside the 2nd Sunday, just let me know the results. In that spirit if you want to play more than one game a month please do, just make sure your opponent agrees and let me know if territory changes hands.
Let me know if you have any questions.
I will post for final head count next week, and don’t worry if you don’t have rules or want to use proxies just come and join in😀

Arranging Games » KoW campaign kick off - part 1 » 26/10/2019 2:08 PM |
Hi all,
I’ve noticed quite a few green books cropping up on Facebook, and it looks like we’re going to have a busy evening on 10th. Starting to do some prep (there will be limited organisation despite certain individuals’ comments).
For today I am just going pop down a list of people how have signed up:
Andy
Steve
Simon
Simon P
Mike
Ectar
Dave
Rob
Ujkakevin
Yours truly
Let me know if you should either be off or on the list.
Next steps: over the next couple of days a I will find some time to choose 2 of the scenarios, one for the first game, and one for the second. I’ll also do a random draw for opponents and post it up.
Hope you’re all enjoying your new books😉
Ed

Hi Dave, not a problem. Even if your set hasn’t turned up if you join on the 10th i’m sure can arrange some troops for you.
I’m going to put another update out tomorrow.
Ed
Arranging Games » Kings of War slow grow kicks off 10th November » 03/10/2019 7:44 PM |
Excellent. Agreed on the dreadball, need a couple more games before January🙂
Arranging Games » Kings of War slow grow kicks off 10th November » 01/10/2019 8:55 AM |
Looking good, so far we have:
Nightstalkers
Goblins
Abyssals
Basileans
And something from the North
Room for some more though🙂.
Ed
Arranging Games » Kings of War slow grow kicks off 10th November » 30/9/2019 12:16 PM |
Anymore takers for games of 3rd ed on 10th of November? We have an odd number at the moment so at least one more would be great, three more fantastic and five... well that would be very special indeed😀
Arranging Games » Kings of War slow grow kicks off 10th November » 28/9/2019 1:23 AM |
Morning all,
It’s been a while since this was last mentioned. Well the new rules launch is a mere month away and there has been some pockets of activity starting armies. I thought it would be a good idea to put out a bit more info🙂
3rd ed releases on 21st October so we will have the first games for the campaign on 10th November. This allows some time to tinker with lists and read through the rules.
The first evening will be 500 point games, with the aim of getting 2 each in that evening.
After that the intention will be to have subsequent KoW nights on the second Sunday of each month with forces increasing by 250 points a month for the next four months.
I am planning on putting together a little campaign map and allotting territories so the outcomes of each game shape the map.
Can you let me know if you will be taking part in the campaign and if you will be playing on the 10th November so we can do a draw for opponents and make a start on the map.
Thanks
Ed
Arranging Games » Game on the 1st Sept » 27/8/2019 3:17 PM |
Hi Tim,
Kill Team sounds good. 100 points. I will see you on Sunday.
Cheers
Ed
Arranging Games » Game on the 1st Sept » 27/8/2019 6:27 AM |
Hi all,
Anyone free for a game of something on Sunday?
Kings of War, War and Conquest, 40k, Kill Team, or happy with a suggestion.
Cheers
Ed
Club Discussion » What's your secret » 29/7/2019 9:05 AM |
Random, but a great question. My not that secret, but definitely fourth tier hobby time commitment is Age of Sigmar. GWs sculpts have gone from strength to strength loving Tzeentch, but also a lot of the Empire stuff pre AOS was interesting. I was planning on spending the rest of the year on these projects and then 3rd edition KOW happened and a new season of Underworlds is on its way.
Arranging Games » Game for 21st - tomorrow » 20/7/2019 8:29 PM |
Hi Mike,
That would be great. 2k KoW.
I’ll see you tomorrow.
Cheers
Ed
Arranging Games » Game for 21st - tomorrow » 20/7/2019 5:55 PM |
Hi all,
Short notice but is anyone available for a game tomorrow evening. Slight change to original plans!!
Happy to give anything ago, but Kow, War and Conquest, Underworlds, Kill Team, 40k are what I have armies for.
Cheers.

Excellent, looks like there should be a good mix of forces. Getting kind of excited🙂

Excellent, I am going to be dabbling in the Basilea.
