TOW Orc and Goblin vs Wood Elves 15.11.2024
Time to give the Wood Elves another go in The Old World. I had a bit of trouble with them on their first outing in the new rules so my hopes were modest.. but with Sean coming over for a game I figured he might bring the Orcs and Goblins, and I wanted to mix it up a little (we had been doing a few games with Dwarves vs the Orcs already). What ensued was a surprisingly considered and cunning battle.
Tactical enhancement was Gin. Possibly a crafty gin, but it's hard to tell these days. That's how crafty gin has become around here.

With a goodly amount of Prussians now painted it was time to commit them to battle. Llew sorted out a scenario and about seven lively blokes had at it. In a raucous gentlemanly affair we all yelled a lot as we nutted out the rules and celebrated doing calamitous things to each other's commands. Tactical enhancement was a German wheat beer.

He'd also painted it leading to some lovely glam shots of angry hairy 'men'. Sean joined us to offer tactical advice to Andrew.. but I ended up needing it more.

Doug popped around for a game and brought a different take on his Beastmen army. I decided to try and get the Dwarfs to work. As my oldest army and a well established favourite I figured I should focus on learning how to get the most out of them in this system first. Tactical enhancement was compliments of Doug and... kind of local. Ish.

    Technically the unit that took the charge from the board should have been off the table, as casualties have to come off of one side or the other. Either way that puts you over the table edge, or o. Contact with a unit that would force you to pop over, and off of the table. That said, it’s a friendly game, and I’m sure your mate was happy to feed his pigs.

In 5th Ed you needed as many normal as you had Big ´uns - which I like. But it needs to be similar for everyone.. Look at High Elves, how many spear elves do yuo see? OCompared to the Elite infantry..? So.

      Yeah I see what you mean. Many people go elite wherever they have a chance. I prefer to take core wherever I can and augment with an elite where I need an extra type of capacity. I find that as editions change, all troops remain viable for their points cost but the way we have to use them to make them effective is not always the way that I want to play them.

    The difference in base sizes is the thing that stopped me going over to The Old World straight away (my friends and I play 7th Edition). I have now started getting conversion trays from Blotz and War Bases, but for my Wood Elves I have painted up more elves with bows on 25mm square bases as individual skirmishers are not great in individual spacer-trays. Of course you can't buy wood elves at the moment so I used Oathmark elves instead.

    • @cognitionfatigue
      @cognitionfatigue Месяц назад

      Yeah it's a challenge. I've found that 1x1 converters from back to basix are better than multi model spacer trays some of the time. It's a pain, but the refresh to the rules is worth it.

    A very good battle report. Not too long, well explained and lovely models and terrain. Beastmen are one of the highest rated armies in The Old World and this battle report shows why. I don't think Dryads cut it anymore. They were very good in 7th Edition and formed the bulk of my army. But strength 3 and 6+ regen doesn't cut it now, especially as they cannot flee. Wood Elf scouts are only two points more than standard glade guard and are a far better option I think.

    The rules for deploying Helicopters during a meeting engagement is on page 86 "The first players Strike Aircraft cannot arrive their first turn and Helicopters must Loiter Off Table (see page 29) in their first turn." The Sheridan's armor is so bad because its an aluminum hull. It should have the parachute rule like the VDV but they did not update it with it. My friend LOVES putting his Infantry in his hueys then sticking them in reserve. Oh Warsaw is trying to push through 20 sheridans? Guess I'll drop the infantry behind on an objective. It sounds stupid but SOMEHOW he makes it work. Every. Dang. Time. If you want tanks in low points, how about M60 Pattons? Its like, 3 tanks for 4 points or something like that. I do think that the Sheridan is one of the best NATO tanks. That Firepower of 1+ (AKA Auto) on AT 23 is pretty dang huge (or its AT 21, I get the AT's mixed up with its missile). I do like the 50 point idea, I might have to try some.

    Baltimores and Fletchers are your friends when it comes to the USN carrier fleets. Baltimores are decent cruisers with advanced radar and 1943 fletchers can take 1 scout aircraft and advanced radar. My friend's carrier fleet usually gets to the 10+ for scouting dice before even rolling for the scout aircraft, that puts all your aircraft in the air. Huh, never thought about building a fleet AFTER you roll for scenario. Always did it how you talk about (army first then scenario). You should look at house ruling the Italian Dive Bomber (forget its name) for the carrier, the book's description literally says its supposed to be on the Aquila. In the base rules fighters cannot drop damage, you have to take them as bombers. I'd look at the fan made Admiralty Rules and alternate points system, makes the carriers more balanced against each other (also fixes some issues with carriers in the base rules). You can find the Admiralty Rules here: vas-admiralty-rules.com/ The alternate points can be found over on the Victory at Sea Wardroom (unofficial) facebook page as well as the fan Discord- (Community) Victory At Seas -(not sure if I can post the link here). The guy who wrote the Admiralty Rules has gotten the green light to write an official carrier based supplement for VAS by warlord themselves. I love both the paint jobs on the fleets btw

The New Mexicos are great brawlers.
