Before I look at making one, has anyone built a digital version of the AOS Path to Glory roster?

Do you like AoS? Do you want a romantic weekend away in an industrial estate in Bristol?

Well have I got the weekend for you!

Over the valentines weekend come to Bristol, play warhammer and maybe eat a middling chilli! We’ve had a few spots open up so message Jonny or me for more details. ❀️

Damn, you're correct πŸ˜€. I think everything has a spider now.

By my reckoning its 860. 85x10 for the little lads and 10 for the boss. Cant think of another unit that would come close to this.

Drop the 2nd shaman, go with auxiliaries and put another unit of riders in?

Alright chap, I'm also on the K1 (which I also really rate) but I don't think i'd have this done in a day with my settings. Would you be willing to share your key settings as I may look to change mine?

Absolute cracking time at @ajghostarm.bsky.social's Carnage teams. Not sure how long the wife will allow this to stay on the mantelpiece though.

This is our third time running a narrative. Its been roughly once every nine months or so between them. They've gone down well so you should enjoy it but you're also welcome to pop down and just have a look and talk to people πŸ‘

Let me know if have any Qs as i'm happy to tell you more about what we're doing.

The game is still played with the usual phases/rounds and almost 100% of the rules (we've removed manifestations etc) and unlike matched play the games are not all symmetrical so you may have an upper/lower hand for some. Ultimately the intention is to tell stories on the tabletop and have fun.

13.11.2024 17:16 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Great question, our narrative has an over-arching story and related tasks happening throughout the weekend along with custom battleplans that reflect a part of the location. Players will also bring lists which may be themed or have their own stories (sometimes their own rules).

Listen, folks. We've all got to do more RTing here. There's no algorithm, so seeing new stuff kinda relies on it. Likes are lovely, but they only get seen by the OP. Engagement is good, but re-engagement is even better.

Anyone with experience of the AK texture pastes? My dark earth has become a springy putty and i'm not sure whether to just mix with water will bring it back or if something else would be better.
