It's all FOC'ed up! Journeyman league games 3 and 4.

Week two of the Journeyman league and it's 15 points of Heavy metal chaos at the Armoury gaming club!

And the photo porn is in full effect!


I get to the shop in a bit of a fluster after a loony (literally) week at work but am looking forward to blowing off some steam off via the medium of 28mm fury.

That feeling won't last! I'm in for a rough night!

Once again Lano fields a beautiful (?) 15 points of Piggy goodness. The pig-a-pult is actually a Malifaux proxy for a Razorback crew.

As happy as pigs in poo

I continue to be the Iron Kingdoms most wanted and field 15 points of misguided intensions.

The Emo's take to the field

I become a bit infatuated with the pigapult and it ends up in loads of my photos (thankfully I have only posted a couple here). It really is a gorgeous (?) sculpt and once again Lano has brought it to life with his painting ability.

If all the Malifaux sculpts are this nice could this be my new game?

The giant, mental pig also gets a close up.

Lets get to the action.

I am still getting to grips with all the new elements of my Emo army and getting all the pieces of the puzzle to fit together is still a struggle.

First I have a go at the Arc node and run the Renegade forward and use it's Arc node to try to blast the nearest Gun boar.

4 focus plus one to boost the hit and absolutely nothing happens for the cost of 5 focus! But I am getting some sort of idea on how to use the node.

Turn two and I open up on the gun boar with the obliterater (with minimal results), move everyone up and then pop my feat. I figure I will camp all my jacks on the objective to secure the objective points.

That proves to be a massive error as it leaves Lano free to charge in his forces and go nuts on my Jacks.

First he pulls a sly one and slams one of his own lights into my forces, knocking everyone down and leaving me very vunerable to the auto hits.

One small compensation is the photos look good!

 and then its all.....................

Misery...................

Misery...................

Glumness.........................

Swearing......................

More misery..................................

Basically I end up getting my arse handed to me on a plate...................

Think I made 3 hit rolls all game and screwed up most of my turns.


On to Game four against Damon and his Cygnar.

Maybe my luck will turn?

 NOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 Misery..........................

Misery.............................

Hit with rift, which just misses Magnus which means I can't use "Fein death" .................... Glumness .................................. Two massive shots  from Cygnar cause massive damage on Magnus............................. misery.................................

 Finally I have a chance to do something useful................

Cast Anarcik bolt........... Miss by one............. cast something else............ miss by one........

Cast something else.............. missed by a mile.................... shoot.............miss........................Charge in............................... miss...................... shoot.................... miss......................... walk away from the table in disgust.............................. throw down my die in frustration.................. roll sixes!

It so bad I refuse to return to the table and Macca the Warmahordes conscientious objector is feeling so bad for me he tentatively picks up my die and raises my banner again for the final turn.

I have to smile as he looks just like my Dad trying to work out his new T.V. remote control!

Win to Damon
