Warhammer 40,000 Abominations

The atrociously diabolical Necrons narrowly defeated a brave Blood Angel Space Marine detachment. Indeed the Marine player ‘forgot’ some key special rules and stratagems which, if remembered, could have delivered a victory for the Emperor’s shock troops (or at least that what he claims anyway).

Maori Wars - Based on Ruapekapeka 1846

In this first game, set in the 1840s, the British, spearheaded by the 58th Foot, assaulted the well constructed and expertly defended Pa. The attack met stubborn Maori resistance and failed to break into the sophisticated Pa fortifications. Maori placed in ambush also proved to be a menace on the flanks. 

Rules used were amended Muskets and Tomahawks. The figures are all Empress Miniatures.

The great looking scenery is all purpose built and homemade. The rules used are Osprey’s ‘The Men Who Would be King‘. The figures are mostly Wargames Foundry and North Star.
