Scandinavian Oldhammer Day @ Rogue Trader, Copenhagen

This would be my first ever oldhammer event, Rogue Trader, Copenhagen  has toiled ceaselessly to bring this about.

The Schedule was:

We open at 9:00

Morning: Mordheim
Lunch Break
Afternoon: Warhammer Fantasy Battle and Painting Competition
Dinner Break
Evening: Necromunda and "Hygge"

 

I went there with another Swedish guy I didn't really know, Björn, we had recently come into contact with eachother trying to get a game in, in the near future.

 

We arrived in time for the Mordheim game, me & Björn took control of a Skaven warband & our opponent played undead.

His fear causing felt like it would be a major problem, but we got lucky since the scenario was treasure hunt & our superior movement won the day.

Great game made even better by the gorgeous table & terrain made by Benjamin:

Next up was the Warhammer bring & battle game, each player brought one strong regiment & one weaker regiment to the tabletop, we also had a hero or level 2 sorcerer to act as our leader.

I´ve been painting like crazy to get this regiment done in time,

now it was time for their first ever battle.

A warrior gains the attention of Nurgle & is turned into a Chaos spawn!

The fantasy game was lots of fun, although while I had Flesh Hounds & Warriors suited for closecombat I never got into combat, staying behind casting spells, in hindsight I should´ve been a lot more aggressive. Oh well, at least I got 2 objectives (worth 6 VP´s) which was enough for our side to win with 12 VP´s vs 7 VP´s.
MVP was the Necromancer the opponents had, his curse of years killed 3 Knights of the Blazing sun, 13 Chaos Warriors & a Chaos hero with Toughness 9! Total Power is bonkers with Power 3 spells!

Some nice Mordheim models on display:

 

As well as a nice old/middlehammer Chaos army:

Next up was the painting competition, there were 8 entries:

I entered my Heinrich Kemmler which got me second place behind the excellent Grey Wizard painted by Björn.

We went home before the Necromunda game, pleased with the day, loaded with lots of free miniatures & hopefully a return next year!
