My Battle Line is formed |
Played my first KoW game this week under the tutelage of club buddy Marty. We played a big 2 v2 game on my new textured Cigar Battle Mat. I used my Riders of Doom
Dragon Rampant army to build a force for the similarly themed Varangur faction.

The games' afoot! |
I found the KoW rules very quick to pickup, though its old style I-go-U-go was hard to get used to again after a long time of not using it! Its clearly a game about manoeuvre and getting into the right position before engaging. Refreshingly, it also rewards the use of reserves.

Lines clash! |
Disclaimer: This was the first time I've played a "rank and flank" style fantasy game

Overall I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to exploring the system's intricacies more.
Well that looks like seriously good fun.
ReplyDeleteSure was! Game mechanics aren't very complicated and its a fun buckets-o-dice style game, which is always good for a laugh
DeleteSo when can my Savage Orcs face off against your Riders of Doom then hmmmm?
ReplyDeleteAs soon as practicable!!!
DeleteIt is an excellent system. I really enjoy it's simplicity but hard to master feel.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you enjoyed it. The Historical version is tops as well.
cheers
