TCOW OUT! (For 2018 at least...)


It was the last TCOW of 2018 and we thought we'd arrange something a little different. We've done mega-battles in the past but we'd never done 40K...so why the hell not!

We'd originally planned for about 8 players, so 4 on 4, but the numbers dwindled slightly on the day and we only had 5....and SOMEONE had gone and brought Knights...


So, with Francis and his 3,500 points of Knights, Marines and Shield Captains on one side and Dave (World Eaters), Daryl (Death Guard), Jorin (Necrons) and me (Ultramarines) on the other, we just got into a slugfest!


A 12 x 4 table was used with a heap of LOS blocking terrain, not that it would make too much of a difference.





And away we went...












The Land Raider the Wouldn't Die...




















This was when the bloody Knight threw a Rhino at my Librarian!! Luckily, he ducked in time!





Inceptor time!!


Death by 1,000 cuts!





So, despite their massive firepower and our lack of high AP weapons, we managed to win the day! Great job Francis and what a great sport as well! 

We also managed to have 2 Team Yankee and 1 Flames of War game played as well.




Froggies!












Oooh, Shilkas....



So there we have it! We've had a pretty bloody good 2018 at TCOW! New games, new people, new spoons...we've had it all!

A massive thanks to all players who graced us this year and to the people behind the scenes who make shit get done. You know who you are...


And one final sending of THOUGHTS and PRAYERS for our Founder and Saviour...we miss you buddy...

Na na na na na na na na....CLUB DAY!!!


We've been waiting for this day for a while. Many of us dipped our toes in, bought crews, painted them up and waited....waited until the streets of Gotham beckoned us closer.

And so, we ventured out into the mean streets and hoped for the best.

The Batman Miniatures Games is pretty damned cool! There is a heap of flavour and some great fun to be had, regardless of which faction you decide to go down.

I'd brought my Riddler crew, Daryl had his Gordon Team while Faiz had the Maroni's. Can't remember who Caulfield had, but there was a Gordon in there as well.

Let's get some photo's out, shall we?


















All in all, I think everyone had a great time playing this one. Need to add a few more people to my crew...maybe a Suicide Squad as well!

Monkey and Mike played some Legion as well, with everyone's favourite Mandalorian paying a visit.







While Glen and Jorin got some 40K practice in for an upcoming tournament. Drew Carey are still cheaty...









And meanwhile...in East Berlin....



Another successful club!
