ASOIAF: August Cup Battle report 1.

 Game a week tournament

As an alternative for running one day tournaments with 3 games, one of my mates 

at Nopat & Taktiikka Club is organising cup style tournaments. We play one game per week and tournament runs for four weeks.

Finished another unit of Unsullied Pikemen for the tournament:

My two lists for the tournament are as follows:

MOD Faction: Targaryen Commander: Daenerys Targaryen - Mother of Dragons Points: 40 Activations: 7 Combat Units • House Bolton Blackguards (6) Daenerys Targaryen - Mother of Dragons (0) • Drogon (7) • Rhaegal (7) • Viserion (7) • Stormcrow Mercenaries (5) Jaqen H'ghar - Unnamed (1) Non Combat Units • Illyrio Mopatis (4) • Walder Frey (4)

Barristan's Phalanx Faction: Targaryen Commander: Barristan Selmy - Barristan The Bold Points: 40 Activations: 8 Combat Units • Unsullied Pikemen (7) Barristan Selmy - Barristan The Bold (0) • Jorah Mormont - The Wandering Knight (3) • Dothraki Hrakkars (5) • Stormcrow Archers (6) • Unsullied Pikemen (7) Non Combat Units • Illyrio Mopatis (4) • Daenerys Targaryen (4) • Tycho Nestoris (4)

As a tournament house rule or comp Dragons would "only" do D3+2 wounds with their attack. There were also several restrictions to Nightswatch, but none of the participants chose to play them... 

ASOIAF: How to destroy a 50p. Lannister army in just three rounds?

 Brutal efficiency, fire and blood

In our Map based campaign For the Throne my southern domain had, inconveniently for a Lannister player, expanded to his borders and he declared a challenge to me. It was duly accepted!

August ASOIAF-tournament part 1/2

 Our community is growing!

I / we have organized many a tournaments at our wargaming club Nopat ja Taktiikka in Helsinki. I believe this was the first time we had eight players. This is a two part tournament with 2 X three games. Second part will be played in two week's time (23rd of August 2020). At least 5 of today's participants will play at the second part too - there we have 10 players enrolled.

Nightswatch reinforcements I worked on while preparing for the tournament (a bit WIP)

ASOIAF: Storm of Swords

Stark vs. Lannisters 60p. Battle

A while a go I played this large ASOIAF TMG battle against Mikko, it was kind of a thematic game: The False King Joffrey was defending the walls of King's Landing against an assault from the Northern army, lead by non other, but the King of the North, Robb Stark! Our scenario was Storm of Swords, which is a kind of siege scenario. 

ASOIAFTMG: Blackfish vs. The High Sparrow

Are them bloody Lannisters invincible?

So far I have played 7 games against Lannisters with my Stark and lost every single one of them! I have watched a lot of ASOIAF battle reports in YouTube and I’ve been honing a 50p. list to be better and better... This was to be the third evolution and the third game with that list. Read on to learn, if Lannisters can be won?

Setting I built for the Tactics board 

SOIAF: Fighting the Lannisters

North remembers...

...that them Lannisters are cunning bastards! While you're trying to fight

an honest, straight battle, they always turn into their tricks and

always seem to have couple of extra cards up in their sleeves!

And Tyrion is the worst of them all!

Now follows a summary of 2 SOIAF battles I've fought. Before that I had gotten a demo, but

I didn't have the time to finish that game.
