IMPACT! MINIATURES

After the success of the all-Dwarf idea (well, it made me paint a team if nothing else!) we're going to play an all-Chaos league, with a few additional (mad) rules thrown in.

Plan is twofold:
1. Just to have a laugh and get some mental Chaos players (we're all old enough to remember when Chao was properly Chaotic, not this sanitised rubbish we get nowadays).
2. To encourage us (well, mainly me and one other) to build and paint a Chaos team (which Dave seems to have been really inspiried by!).

Anyway, if you want to have a look, rules we're using are up on our resources page: http://arbbl.webs.com/resources.htm

Although I'm most likely to use Grandma Wendy figs (plastic beasties and CWs), I'm going to see what I can do with the Chaos conversion sprues (I've a couple kicking about). As and when we get some pics taken, they'll get added to the site.

so, you're the guy that bought those sprues..

in case you don't get that, the conversion sprues go down as one of our worst ideas to date - cost quite a bit to get made and have not exactly sold well so far..

Well, if they work well, and look ok (after I've butchered them I mean, they look ok while still on the sprue!), I'll probably be buying some more.

Can't find my sprues atm - I know they're around somewhere...
Not to much of a problem yet though, as I can't buy the beastman boxset until payday anyway.

Anyway, first games played tonight. Win for myself 2-0, while the other game was won 1-0. We changed the rules a little, and removed MVP, but the player you'd normally select now makes an immediate roll on the Gift table, resulting in (between the 4 teams), a undivided lesser daemon, a bloodletter, a chainsaw and (mine) Razor Sharp Claws on a CW. Other than that, no skills. :(

We do now have a Chaos Dwarf in the league, but everyone else rolled Beasties or CWs - so much for randomness!
