It's SoM gauntlet throwing time!

[Marius]

So, who's up for some SoM fun against my Counts?

I'm not fussed about points level or which army I'm up against, so if you're favourite hasn't had some WFO lovin yet, this is your chance!

Also, I don't mind either doing a list that's fluffy, competitive (if I can work out what is & isn't! :zombie: ) or a mixture of the two. Just let me know which you'd prefer.

Come on people! Step Up, Step Up! Who's up to the challenge!

 

[Marius]

Uh... anyone there? Anyone? Helloo? o.o

Surely someone out there's willing to give an SoM game a go?

One week, 50+ views, not one single comment.

After all the discussion in the Army List & Tactic forums I'd expected someone would have had the nerve to actually try out a game.

*Challenge Withdrawn* as it's clearly a lost cause.

Could be an issue where people don't have the SoM rules (this is the case for me, and I had 3 games on the go at the time).

 

[Sanai]

I have the SoM rules now. Mind a counts vs counts showdown?
I prefer fluffy or casual lists to hyper-competitive lists btw.

 

[Marius]

You're on!

Fluffy & casual is fine with me. Did you have a points value in mind?

 

[Sanai]

Whatever points value you wanna play. Personally I think at least 2500 (thats 2500 pts of VC + 625 pts of monsters/magic) or more if you wanna be able to try more of the monsters.

 

[Marius]

How about an even 3000 VC + 750 M&M then?

Should make for some pretty epic shenanigans.

 

[Sanai]

Sounds great. I like shenanigans! (Fetch your brooms people!)
How will we handle terrain? Shall we use the SoM scenery rules for yet more unpredictable shenanigans?

 

[Marius]

Sounds good to me!

I'm even tempted to suggest adding the insane mage + his rules from the one scenario into the game :|

But maybe that'd be a little too much?

 

[Sanai]

Sounds like a great idea, and that makes the terrain easy to do (a central fulcrum and six forests, then of course the normal fulcrums)
Umm.. how many PD does the mad mage use to cast his spell? It doesnt seem to say in the scenario rules.
edit: nvm, it seems he just autocasts it with no chance of miscasting/failing/irresistable force but it is dispellable.

 

[Sanai]

Speaking of Storms of Magic, it is now storming over here! No floating chaos stars or endless pillars have emerged from the ground yet, but it is raining with lots of thunder and lightning.

 

[Marius]

What you need to do is get out there and start shouting this:-

That's how I imagine the seven sigils spell would go.

after all - how could such an epic declaration fail to work?

 

[Sanai]

Aaah how I love Top Gear.

One of the best episodes of the best program ever.
