Gen-Con

By TallTonyB, in Runewars Miniatures Game

16 players.

5 Daqan, 6 Uthuk, 4 Latari, 1 Waiqar.

A bunch of good looking armies here today, should be some interesting games.

That's a good spread of factions. Looking forward too read some battlereps ?

Yeah post some battle reports people!!

Running my Uthuk. Same army I posted for FFGHQ regionals.

Game 1 done for me. A 167 MoV win. The dice were staggeringly lopsided my way.

Keep up the reports!

Round 2 done. I’ve now faced two Daqan players. I finished with 102 MoV. 60 points came from flank charges and 10 from the Uthuk terrain. It was a bloodbath with very little left.

Round 1 was Volatile Runes on Careful Approach (?)

Round 2 was Demoralize in Unprepared.

Only one Waiqar?

Gah! Wish I could be there!

3rd round, there are three matchups of Latari vs Uthuk. Bets on faction winners?

Uthuk, hands-down. I have played a lot of games in the past week and it seems like no matter what I bring, I can't lose. Then again, I've only faced Waiqar for the whole week, so maybe those two are just a bad match-up?

My bet is two Uthuk and one Latari winns round three.

Great to see 16 players

Uthuk win all three. One was down to the wire, the elves were looking good in another one until a big swing back. Uthuk did not fair as well against the Daqan.

Cut to top 4 or how they running it?

Cut to 4. Starts 9am local

#5 is the only Waiqar.

Dustin is the Waiqar player.

Cool. So it should have been Uthuk-Latari-Uthuk-Daqan and we got Uthuk-Latari-Uthuk-Waiqar.

Thank god it wasn’t u-boats or Rieekan Aceholes.

Is it possible to have final game same one faction to be represented by the two player and they go against each other ?

Yes. It is possible for the final match to be TGall and I. We both brought Uthuk. Any other combination from the top cut would not be a mirror match

Thanks. If that happens that would be Epic. its like a Civil war to have one Uthuk warband go against another warband for supremacy.

I played Uthuk with another player and towards the end of the game we were maneuvering our armies around the board and we both were getting mixed up on what army belongs to which player. (we both have our Uthuk army painted in red). So we decided to insert banners beside each tray representing each player.

We are still working on banners. Kind of wished FFG would have had banners for each army to go at the edge of each tray. (Like Uthuk banner in different colours).

You could base your models/trays differently, or paint the edges of your trays, to get a similar effect.

I plan to paint my uthuk different for that reason. Was thinking about going Nurgle greens, browns and yellows
