Warhammer Triumph and Treachery - All the Chaos

Stephen, Kenton and I convened at the Soldier Shack for some Bank Holiday Warhammer.
I had laid the beers in as usually Bank Holiday gaming = Drunkhammer but timing was off and hangovers were in place so it was a sedate affair by usual standards.

Steve and I had conceived of a four player All the Chaos Powers game but we couldn't get four people together at the same time. So we diced to see which power was missing, then set up the armies, then randomly decided who would have which army. Because Chaos.

I got Tzeentch, Steve was Slaanesh and Kenton Nurgle. Slaanesh was the army list I'd put together so Steve  moaned about how rubbish it was for the entire game. While killing all my men with it.

The brightly hues hordes of Tzeentch assemble.




The pastel painted hordes of Slaanesh


Nurgle's Rusty Nuts








After a short while the Slaaanesh deamons clashed with my single fighty unit.


And chopped them into finely sliced morsels.


Before starting on the horrors.


Who proved more resilient


Then Nurgle started on the 'nettes.


While some of his tough guys headed for the VPs in the centre of the board.




The Masque got her disco groove on with the Mutalith.


And the daemons continued swinging at one another.




The dogs of Nurgle swept round a flank


And the horrors hid behind the banestone.




Slaanesh's Daemon Prince helped by the Masque took apart the Plaguebearers


The Daemonettes extricated themselves from the horrors and went after the flamers.



Leaving the Horrors to the doggies.

In the victory point count up Stephen had (inevitably) accrued the most coins - mainly by picking on my squishy units.

Triumph and Treachery does give a good fun game - but you do need to give it time.
