I’ve had these Shard Striders laying around for a while now. They were intended for a D&D oneshot I have yet to get a chance to run. However, I had this idea of a Mirror Room encounter for D&D and decided to use these two as Mirror Golems. To give them the chrome mirror effect, […]
Back when I moved to London (summer of 1999) I was a Warhammer 40k player, but moving to London I learned about a bunch of other super interesting scifi tabletop wargames and ended up ditching WH40K (never took to 3rd edition, I prefered the more skirmish nature of 2nd and Rouge Trader). Anyway, having been […]
So this is where it all starts! I have been invited to kick Union’s ass, more specifically Mocaiv’s Union’s Ass. As the game came close it was clear to me that BootCamp was turning up as well with the Growlers. Below are some of my comments and thoughts on these games. Let me first run through the […]
This is the 3rd battle between me and Mocaiv and the second between me and Bootcamp. This is my first 3 person battle. Below are some of my comments and thoughts on these games. Whoops! Forgot how many points we played: 500 points each (thanks to Techromancer for noticing this error). Let me first run through the […]
There isn’t much to say here, basically because I have forgotten these games since they were last December (almost a year ago). But here is what I do remember along with some very bad pictures (I need a digital camera). The table was Father Time’s. The most brilliant piece was the grey piece in the […]
This is the first Battle Report I make in almost two years. It is a 1200 point battle between myself and Mocaiv from www.wargamesunlimited.com who is fielding Zykhee. As the quick reader will know I have never beaten Mocaiv in the time we have played VOR (effectively from when VOR came to Europe. The Battle Report is based on […]
This isn’t a battle report as such but as this represents the first VOR game I have played in over 5 years I thought it justified giving the day its own page. The games 750points 3-way between Mocaiv’s Zykhee, Bootcamp’s Growlers and my own Neo Soviets. Setup Roling to see who set up made us all […]
GavBot take on Stevieboy’s Shards on the City Table Gavbot’s Neos again (on my table again) against the winner, Mocaiv’s Zykhees. Zykhee and Shard on the Pharon table I didn’t get the chancce to play on. But I will some day. After battle. Mocaiv is taking pictures of participating miniatures The day after The big […]
Golden Growler UK 2001 The White Horse Inn, Northampton, 6th and 7th October 2001 So this is it! Golden Growler UK 2001 is over and what a blast. I will not reveal the results here that will all be up on www.wargamesunlimited.com, I can reveal that I did not win. I must say it was a […]
I been thinking for a long time about how to paint the Axion mini I bought shortly after Golden Growler UK 2001. I had an idea base around an illustration of a shard I did. The idea was to paint the whole Axion as I would paint a jewel. I would paint a jewel by painting it […]
At Golden Growler UK 2001 we were fortunate enough to get a blister with three prototype VOR minis: A Golem (the only Golem mini as far as I know), an old version Union soldier and an old version of a Vanguard. The Vanguard mini is somewhat bulkier than the later Vanguard minis making him the perfect […]
The new and improved Typhoon I was not happy with the result of the previous Typhoon I made. First of all the mini didn’t really came out as I wanted it to be, Second, I think the Chaingun is too short range for a battle crawler. The only real option is the Mortar. On the left you […]
