Siege On Castle House Part 3

Slavering Horde is me.

how do battle points work? Like is it a win is worth x amount of battle points, a draw is worth x amount, and a loss is worth 0?

Yes, that's correct.

Plus each board will have a special vp location worth 2 battle points. That makes them important, but doesn't totally unbalance the game if you wax your opponent but he wins because he has the special vp location.

Be warned, however; that at some point we might run a scenario that is built just around the special vp location. It will be a game winner if you have it, a loser if you don't.

Yep, sorry about the confusion. "Slavering Horde" just wasn't a name I imagined you to use. You look more like a "Wolves of War" type of guy.

You clearly don't know me.

As long as we aren't talking about the Biblicly sort of "know you", hopefully we will change that problem soon.

Well Today is the last day before the big event...... CHG is hoping for a good event and looking forward to all that have singed up. :-)

Good tourney all. Off the top of my head:

1st - Matt F. (Capnwoodrow) - CSM
2nd - Brent S. (bsimon) - Space Wolves
3rd - Andy (phantomphoenix) - CSM
Honorable Mention - Chris (JDScherry) - Orks

best sport - Blake D. (bdix)
Best paint - Matt H. (Monkey)

3rd place was Andy, phantomphoenix on here, he was playing chaos marines, Chris(guy with yellow orcs) got 4th

I think we all had a good time at the CHG tournament. All the players I had an opportunity to play with were great to play against and several others that I spoke with offered some good solid advice.

This was a great event for us new players. Being a local tournament I was able to find future competition and I think we had a better group of players. I don’t believe there was a ‘bad’ sport in the group. Somehow I don’t think this would be the case in the bigger tournaments.

I certainly had a great time even in the battles where I was clearly losing from turn 1. It should be noted that Orks never actually lose we just regroup and hit you again. Still I had some battles where the need to need to regroup was almost instantaneous. I think any boss that sees all three of his battle wagons blow up on turn 1 would turboboost back to pick up some more before proceeding further. It would just be unorky to fight without the wagons. I certainly wouldn’t want to be unorky!
My army needed some more dakka and I will be working on that. Can’t have too many boyz or too much dakka!
