Kommander Tatiana Sikora vs. Lord Exhumator Scaverous

Cryx is at it again. After their loss by Skarre, Scaverous is send to the shores of Khador to wreck havoc. The Empress dispatches Kommander Sikor and her Man-O-Wars once againg to deal with the Cryx menace. This Cryx detachment consists of all lot of ghostwalking banes. It is a close one. Yet, all of this ghostwalking becomes troublesome for Tatiana.

 

Kommander Tatiana Sikora vs. Mechanik Adept Sparkhammer

Cygnar is on the move again. Probably encouraged by Madison Calder's success at the last crossroad. This time they are sending their Cadre 'caster Sparkhammer — and what a hammer it is. Tatiana is dispatched again to make up for her past mistakes. She is again bringing her Man-O-Wars. She does a pretty good job until the last second where a 'jack breaks through and ends the game.

Kommander Tatiana Sikora vs. Pirate Queen Skarre

The remains of the pirate kingdom of Cryx is still stirring. Skarre, the pirate queen is moving into Khador territory. She is escorted with all the girls with long spiky chains. Obviously, the Empress will not stand for such insolence. Tatiana is sent to defend the coast along with a detachment of the newest Man-O-Wars. The battle is fast and furious. Yet, the rampaging pirates is no match for Khadorian steel.

 

Kommander Tatiana Sikora vs. Captain Madison Calder

Apparently, the new shiny version of Cygnar is not sufficiently preoccupied with the Orgoth invasion. They are back to their old tricks of invading the Empress' rightful domain. Captain Madison Calder is leading the army. For the first time, Kommander Tatiana Sikora is dispatched along the new Man-O-Wars to intercept her. It could have gone both ways. However, Calder comes out on top. 

 

List of Minicrates

The minicrate models from Privateer Press are alternative sculpts of their Warmachine models, which are only available through a subscription. Unfortunately, Privateer Press does not maintain a list of models released. So, here is a comprehensive list of all models released.

The Motherland returns to WTC

Following the success (I think) at last year's WTC in Belgium, the Motherland is attending this year's WTC in Denmark. It is a new time with Mark IV live. This year I'm bringing Malakov and Strakhov, both in 5th division. I think that Legacy models perform pretty well in the new environment. However, as so many times before, the armies were led down by the man behind the line. Yet, all in all it was pretty good.

Storm Legion vs. Winter Korps core army starters. What are our options?

Finally, the Winter Korps army stater box is available. So is the similar box for the pesky Cygnar. I have had a single game against the swans and have been wondering how to tackle them; given that we both only have the starter army boxes. I'll walk through the different Cygnar models, how we best can get them off the table, and how to survive whilst doing so. This deals only with the two starter armies!

Winter Korps core army box, what can we build?

The Winter Korps is finally here. At last we can field the new improved Winter Korps Army. A good starting point is the core army starter set. This gives us most of what we need to build an army. The set itself easily allows us to build a 50 point army; but not enough to build 75 point. Here is some musing over what this starter set can give us.

First go at MK IV

Mark IV has finally arrived and I'm excited. To celebrate this, the Motherland is attending a small tournament. I was hoping to play the "new version" of Winter Korps; unfortunately, the models are not available when the tournament takes place. So, to defend Khador's honour, the trusted Man-O-Wars step up.  We are playing three games. MKIV is fast and fun. Some rules need to be unlearned. Yet, I think it is in a good place and Khador can finally start reclaiming former glory.

The Motherland went to the WTC

I'm have been representing the Motherland at the WTC in Belgium this year. This was a first for me. It is the last time MKIII will be played as MKIV was recently been announced. I brought Old Witch 2 along with her half-naked crazed people in Wolves of Winter and Karchev 2 with all the Warjacks he could find in Jaws of the Wolf. I'm happy with how I performed. I'm excited and I'll be returning in 2023. So, here are some impressions.
