This time it was the under dog Vikings VS the Vet Hunters of Evil.<br />
<br />
I set the game up like this. This was just an all out battle.<br />

The Vikings are up north, with he Hunters from the south.<br />
Turn one.<br />
Vikings, and Hunters close in on each other. A few ranged attacks but no real action. Here is how it looked at he end of the turn.<br />

<br />
I am really just getting a handle on the rules, both SBH, and SDG. I am also having fun with UB.<br />
So in the end I have had three battles.<br />
Ratz vs Vikings with the Ratz winning.<br />
Ratz vs The Hunters, Hunters Winning<br />
Viking vs Hunters, Hunters once more.<br />
<br />
So The Vikings really come out on top after losing two in a row. They picked up 15gp, plus the underdog bonus of d6x10 and I rolled a 6. So they end up with a grand total of 75gp to bulk up with.<br />
Now I have done the exploration after each battle, and find it very hard to gain any thing from it. When you get some thing you have to roll a 6 on a d6. This is to hard. so in three games, I have rolled 6 time and have not gotten a 6. I think this need to be changed to 5+.<br />
<br />
I have to stat up my Gor, and get them in top the action next.<br />
<br />
Ratz W:1 L:1<br />
Vikings W:0 L:2<br />
Hunters W:2 L:0<br />

First the software. <a href="http://www.universalbattle.com/">Universal Battle</a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.universalbattle.com/gif/header.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="95" src="http://www.universalbattle.com/gif/header.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>I came across this from the SBH Yahoo group. So I had to give it a try. Now this is a pay soft ware with free access but the later is very limited. I have joined the Pro version for a year @ $14.00 USD. They have a hole pricing plan that is very affordable. I would have joined the lift time plan but I want to mke sure it flies before making that jump, but that is only $29.00 USD.<br />
<br />
So his is mostly Fantasy based, but you could fight Historical Midevil battls with it. I am sure they will add more content as they grow.<br />
So you create and account (Pro) and go to the army builder. You are faced with a hold bunch of choices. So I made a Rat, and a Hunters of Evil warbands. I started with a base figure and out fitted it as needed. You can add armour, clothes, hair, color, weapons, shields, and more to each figure. Then you can store the stats for each miniature in side the information box. So here I stored the Q,C and rules. This information can be vied during the game.<br />
<br />
Now I have the armies, I can save them to my computer to up load later, or share. To play solo I had to save both the Rat hord, and the hunters then create a blank army and load both warbands in to it. When you deploy you can deploy singles, or large number of the same for same WFBs.<br />
<br />
Once deployed you use the rules of what ever system you want, and start the game. There is a die roller, chat, rulers, templates, markers, and tons of terrain to add to the game. All along you can save and come back to it. You can also save and share with every one. So you can make a map that every one can load and use. This is great for playing campaign games.<br />
<br />
So over all it will take some time to get the hang of it, but it can be allot of fun. Also it will allow people how could never get together for a game play. Pair this with google voice, skype or some other VOIP software and it could be really work out.<br />
<br />
Now here are the photos of the battle, but I did not focus on this, as i was trying to learn the system.<br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I had a few more photos to add but had some issues with Picasa upload rejecting them.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">But any way you can see what I had laid out.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Now the Rats did not fare will this game, they got kill quickly, and gave up at turn 4, with 4 killed, and the leader being the second to go down. The Hunters did well. The after action was well boring. The Rats only lost one member, and earned 15gp. Had to pay 5 as the Leader was robbed while getting healed. The found a begger that took them for a gold. The Hunters got 20pg, and found a forgotten tomb and ended up with nothing.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">So over all I look forward to playing this with some real people on the other side, but it is a great way to play solo, when I can not set up a table in the house.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

I won the auction for the beast men and only put one bid in. I for one can not believe I won an auction with only one bid. So I got the GW (yuck) Gor Herd.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.armouryhobbies.com/images/product/m790119a_99120216001_BeastmenGorHerd1_445x319.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="229" src="http://www.armouryhobbies.com/images/product/m790119a_99120216001_BeastmenGorHerd1_445x319.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">They list for $24.95 from GW plus shipping, and I have seen them for $29.95 plus shipping from other sites. I picked them up new in box for $15.50 and $4.00 shipping for a total of $19.50. I know this is no great deal with you look at what I paid from 20 Vikings from Wargams Factory, but is is good for a GW product.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Well now I have to work up some stats for them and get them on my roster list.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

As I love the USE ME 001 SciFi rules, and have my units based in mass I was very hope full for this add-on. Well I am not feeling it at all! Sorry 15mm UK, but I can just as easily stick with Fantasy Rules 3. I wanted so much to switch but I can't.<br />
<br />
I love the rules, but and how simple they are with singled based units. Groups of them will work juts fine. But the new add -on rules feel like a band aid. If I was not hooked on SBH I would use USE ME 002.<br />
<br />
The next set of new is I have bid on some beast men and I hope I get them. With 3 Warbands for SBH I am hoping for another. If I do not get them I will be getting some minis from Mirliton.<br />

The theory behind this warband is a bunch of fanatics that hate Evil, and will stop at nothing to eradicate it. They will only use blunt weapons when they have become full fledge members of the group, and axes before this. There will all most all ways be one member that has some for of magic, in most cases he will have a book, or scroll that he can read to hold a foe while the rest of the band bashes the Evil from them.<br />

The first is my Viking warband.<br />
<a href="https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B88asdeQe7r-MzNiNGU5M2YtZjgyZS00ZjQ3LTlmNzEtNmFkM2U2YjI3ZGU4&hl=en">Vikings PDF</a><br />
<br />
Second is my Rats.<br />
<a href="https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B88asdeQe7r-ZjYyNTllMGEtNmIxYy00MjZlLTkzZDUtNGIzNGJlODk3ZGY2&hl=en">Rats PDF</a><br />
<br />
Third is my Hunters of Evil.<br />
<a href="https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&pid=explorer&chrome=true&srcid=0B88asdeQe7r-OTY2YjRiYWUtMTdjZS00YjFhLWE5ZmUtYWRiMmY4NWM0NWE4&hl=en">Hunters PDF</a><br />
<br />
I have used the Warband builder, to try and make a roster that can be used for a campaign setting. Also I have made my own unit types, and to show the weapons on the roster I have made user rules, with 0 cost. So if you look at these rosters you can see what I have done. In the name filed I have names each model, stated type, and have the experience listed. To show the warbands gold I have created a user rule called WB Chest=#gp. This can be changed buy selecting to edit the rule. I will also be creating rosters with photos, now that I know how to do that.<br />
<br />
I have two other warband rosters that I have not posted as I do not have minis for them. I used them to play in Battle Chronicler.<br />

What I mean is this, with all the different systems out there you could never have a great campaign using these systems. I feel we should be able to. So many years ago GW (yuck) had an online campaign running and it was really cool. That is what got me thinking. Could this not be played by any one? I think yes. I feel if there is a base setup, a group from one area of the world playing HoTT could, and a group from another part could play WHFB, while yet another could play SoBH. With them all adding to the campaign. So how to make this work? I spent hours thinking of the world, and map, ending up with the current world called Earth. There are more then enough maps of the world out there on Google to use. This would allow groups to be placed on the map close to ware they are in the real world. Next a story line that would support this. Now I have come up with this but petered out. <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UUCYWHIBVKF-Jz2Wv6VIl6I0NX68k19dSQexgA7Gbbg/edit?hl=en">The Long Dawn</a> here you can read what I have done. Now I am no writer, but the concept is a comet hits the Earth and causes a shift in the aliment of space and time. Portals open to all kinds of worlds allowing any fantasy race, or creature to come to Earth. But during this time of darkness, say a few hundred years, the history of the Earth is forgotten to some point. Now as the world come out of darkness the campaign starts. Armies now fight for territory and control over a piece of Earth.<br />
<br />
Here is the map I like<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYPSSajohnzca6ZCJ_bbBOYn3ghOdfMiWH_ocyzYXZ8SVhHP4zFn8bcXd56OQFNYoDHpxMA89YcZSvBW21jRcLAt7U0hle6c_3UlzkEw1EiWdC0K1CtSjtCuAozLkpcUKMyam8dR_E2Ire/s1600/thelongdawnmap.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYPSSajohnzca6ZCJ_bbBOYn3ghOdfMiWH_ocyzYXZ8SVhHP4zFn8bcXd56OQFNYoDHpxMA89YcZSvBW21jRcLAt7U0hle6c_3UlzkEw1EiWdC0K1CtSjtCuAozLkpcUKMyam8dR_E2Ire/s400/thelongdawnmap.png" width="400" /></a></div><br />

<br />
<br />
I was thinking this could be done on large scale such as full scale battles, all the way down to skirmishes in Cities, using games like WHFB, Mordheim, HoTT, Fantasy Rules 3, SoBH, USE ME 002, Mighty Armies, Warmaster, or any other rules set I have missed. The beauty of this is you use the rules you have to play in a global Fantasy campaign. The campaign system would be very small.<br />
<br />
This could be don a a blog, with battle reports sent in and a map updated on a web page.<br />
<br />
Well any way I went so far with it and would be willing to go further, but I ran out of steam with the story line.<br />

My little girl and I play a small SBH game. It was vikings VS ratmen. We only got to turn 3 before we had to stop but it was fun.<br />
<br />
I broke out my terrain and setup the table. I was the rats, and she was the vikings.<br />
These two photos are the setup. I was on the more open side, but that was OK she needed the advantage. She needs to learn about tactics, as she lumped all he men in to a pile behind the center wall section. I tried to point ok she should run her bow men to the high ground. That did not work. I split my group in to three groups. I had slingers, and a rat warrior on the left. Boss and 3 rats in the middle, and 4 rat n the right.<br />

My girl got the first go, and moved behind the wall on the left of the photo. While I opted to go right, with the group move action. I have never used it and it worked out great. We both went for the bridge.<br />

At the end of turn three she had taken out 2 of my rats, and I failed every attack roll. Over all we had fun. The die tower worked great. SBH is a very kid friendly system.<br />

I took some of the suggestions for the comments and worked them into this tower. Thanks for you comments:-) I may take the same template in the future and make a SciFi version of it, but for now this will do. I did have a bit of an issue wit the dice going over the wall at the end. I put a lip to help and it did, but the problem seem to be the dice act as a ramp for other dice. the hit the dice and bounce right out of the courtyard. Well at any rate the will keep my son from scattering the dice all over the room.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Both my kids helped in making this, and are having fun using it for math. They love to roll the dice then add up the total. Also we have played a game the higher die wins.

It called for thick card to be used, but I have opted for foam core. Now it is not finished yet but it is a work in progress. Also note that I used stained glass windows on this tower. I know it is hard to see but they are there. The tray at the bottom I whipped up as there was not one in the template.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

This sucked!!! I waited over a month for this order. Well I have this to say, I was in contact with Alex from 15mm UK sales and what a guy. I know there was very bad weather there, and with the holidays, then bad weather here in the north eastern US. So with all this I am still a very happy customer of 15mm UK, and will continue to order products from them.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">What did I get? Well I got 10 men from the Laser burn adventurer range, and there new USE ME high fantasy rules. I will be working on a review of the rules, as well as slapping some paint on the mini this weekend, but chances are I will not get ether one done. Life interrupted:-(</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">The minis I got were the closest ones I could find to the Warzone Trenchers with out going to the WWI ranges of minis out there. There are all the same pose but I will try and change this up a bit. Any way they will fit in with my Praetorian, as special units.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">For the rules I have been using ChipCo's Fantasy rules 2,3,TCE for years, and was also hoping for the new mass combat rules form Ganesha Games. I think they are stuck on one type of unit, and that is holding them up. So in waiting I have found USE ME SciFi and love them, why not have a go at the USE ME high fantasy. There is only one draw back at this time, and that is basing of the units. All mine are base for FR!3 on 40x40, or 40x20mm bases, and there rules are for single unit basing. So I have to read through, and come up with a way to play with my current basing. I have have been given ideas form both Alex (from 15mm UK), and the Yhaoo group on this conversion, so I am confident this can and will be done. If time allows for it!!!</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">Well look for the Minis to be posted, and the review of the USE ME high fantasy soon, and on both my blogs.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />

I know they look the same, but they are not. The tanks have 4 guns (wing tips and cockpit), and the back of the tank tapers off. The APCs have the cockpit guns, and the back is taller, with a hatch for the troops to enter, and exit. But they do use the same wings, and cockpit section. Over all I love them, and they are easy to put together. All that is needed is some light sanding of the body, ware the cockpit connects. I did not need to pin any thing, and use the new gorilla glue (there super glue).<br />

I have been in the scifi mode for the last few weeks, <a href="http://theorky15mmscifi.blogspot.com/">http://theorky15mmscifi.blogspot.com/</a> has what I have been working on. I was spending the summer as I should and that is swimming, and having fun with the kids. One of the projects is to redo my Office/Painting room to make it more of a craft room for the kids as well. So I hope this will be done before the winter, when I do most of my painting. The problem is I have soooooo much computer stuff I have to cram it all into one small corner desk. Oh well I will post as soon as I can.<br />

Here are 3 of my 28mm converted Wragames Factory Vikings. Using parts from the Mordheim box set, I have made them better fit a Fantasy setting. I started this war band for Mordheim, but have decided to go with Song of Blades and Heros or SBH.<br />

Well I looked on the internet for years, and never wanted to spend any real money on this. So the other day I was looking at a post ware a guy was baking the green stuff on a mini. He had a simple set up, that looked like a coffee can with a hole in the side, and a light over the top. He took a close up photo of the mini in side baking and it was very clear to me. I thought this is it, I drink tons of coffee, and have more coffee cans that I have room for them.<br />
<br />
Please note the minis photoed here are 15mm lizard men. I think this is a great way to bring out there detail, in such a small size.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/0dYWUs0L9n0NY6zFG6VGgQ?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_PoGNND304IA/S-_XW8C795I/AAAAAAAAFSk/2BOn_-y4pdQ/s400/Picture%20073.jpg" /></a><br />
Here is a photo using the light box.<br />
<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/a_pMOJgZAVi-nzaVXr7uOA?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/_PoGNND304IA/S-_XWIu5VvI/AAAAAAAAFSc/Q6wcZ1_FKBI/s400/Picture%20071.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
So how did I put this together well it is very easy.<br />
Items used.<br />
*Coffee can<br />
*Spray Glue<br />
*Cardboard scrap<br />
*3 Sheets of white paper<br />
*Foam white kind<br />
*Aluminum foil<br />
*Paint<br />
*Flock<br />
<br />
First I cut the hole in the front of the can, then cut some foam for the bottom of the can. I then spray glued the foam in, and put the cardboard on the inside back also with spray glue.<br />
Next I covered the back with 3 layers of white paper using spray glue for each layer. Then next to the cut out hole I put 1 1/2 inch wide strips of foil with spray glue. Once all was dry, I painted the bottom brown, then flocked it. <br />
This photo shows the lay out of the components used to put this together. <br />
<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/QqeT1ijqygHRb-Ocl3vhzA?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_PoGNND304IA/S-_XXcE1CCI/AAAAAAAAFSo/mQyrvT60nhw/s400/Picture%20074.jpg" /></a> <br />
<br />
<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/axk8VSUZ5utjjfOHpXQOYw?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_PoGNND304IA/S-_XX1tTSJI/AAAAAAAAFSs/tXfYfBnSKn4/s400/Picture%20075.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And now here is how it works and how I took the first photo in this post.<br />
<a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/2cjuf11A5yhV4Lbh2WCUYQ?feat=embedwebsite"><img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/_PoGNND304IA/S-_XWf6ptNI/AAAAAAAAFSg/X76dYDU-pe8/s400/Picture%20072.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I think I will dress up the back drop and and some small items for better looking photos, but this is a great start, on the way cheap.<br />

I have 3 ready for play, 3 all most ready, and 3 half done. I made some good progress over the snowy weekend. I also took another distro of Linux out for a test drive. LinuxMint, based on Ubuntu, but more user friendly out of the box. What I mean by that statement is most of the non free content of Ubuntu is installed for the user during the install, and not after the install. By non free I am talking about Java, and Adobe Flash player. This makes it a much better version of Ubuntu for some one who wants to learn Linux. I have also spent lots of time with my wife and kids, and I hope to spend more time with them today.<br /><br />Have a great weekend.<br /><br />NoelWeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15386734616188624789noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5531088926271893542.post-55358772249127980662010-02-25T19:34:00.002-05:002010-02-25T19:39:36.360-05:00Snow Day!!!Well I had a snow day today, but needed to work from home. I did spend about an hour and a half painting. I worked on two more of the Viking warband, but did not photo them yet. I also started a third Viking. This third was the one I have seen people complain about. They do not like the running figure. Well I took this guy and gave him a Xbow. This guy is loading the Xbow on the run. I think he is very cool looking. Then I have my Orc trukk a second coat of paint. <br /><br />We will see what tomorrow brings in the way of a snow day. I would love to paint more but I have a ton of work to get done at work.<br /><br />NoelWeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15386734616188624789noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5531088926271893542.post-30692003615114263392010-02-23T07:44:00.003-05:002010-02-23T07:48:49.761-05:00Painted warband leader.Well I have painted the leader of my warband.

I am going to use this for both, Mordheim, and SBH. I hope you enjoy, and please comment on them.<br />The minis are from Wargames Factory, and are the sample vikings sets for $4.95. Great deal, and I got 3 sets.<br /><br /><a href="doamo.theorky.net/home/workbench">Web site link</a>.<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="400" height="267" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=http%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2Fnoelvh%2Falbumid%2F5435600525272766161%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Weshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15386734616188624789noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5531088926271893542.post-14569476197567967262010-02-06T10:12:00.002-05:002010-02-06T10:32:23.004-05:00Whats going on at the Orky 15mm.Well I have been jumping around a bit, as you know from my last post. I have picked up Mordheim once more and seeing it is still popular on the net I was very happy. So I have been working on a Skaven warband, as it was left over in the boxed set I still have. I then decided I wanted a new warband to fight them rats. I went through eBay and did not find any great deals there. Then I got an email from one of my groups that pointed me to Wargames Fatory.com and there is was a Viking sample set. I thought I could mix and match some of the left over human bitz from the Mordheim box to give the Vikings a fantasy feel. I ordered 3 sets of 8 men from WF for $24.00 US. They to over a week to get to me, as the owner was sick. I sent them an email to check on the order and it was quickly replied to. WF more than made up for the delay, and I would love to order more minis from them when the money is there. I have to say the price is right for these minis, and the quality is very good. For the scale they are 28mm, but not the heroic scale of GW, so they are a bit small. I have started to put some of them together with the fantasy bits, and I have to do a bit shaving down to make them fit right. But so far they are looking great. I will have some photos soon.<br /><br />Then I really started to take a look at the game I am seeing more and more of Song of Blade, and heros or SBH. I picked up the first book SBH and found it to be different from any of the games I have rules for. It is a very simple rule set, with allot of potential. It dose require the supplements to make it a complete games system. The author is very quick to reply to questions on the yahoo group, and direct email. I am happy to have picked up this system, and will probably use this over the Mordheim rules. For the price of $5.00 it is well worth picking up the SBH rule book. I have plenty of minis to build warbands in ether 28mm, or 15mm. The game was made for 15mm but is scalable to any scale. The rule set dose not require you to use a ruler but 3 sticks of different sizes. These are used for range, and movement. A simple d6 game, with no book keeping should make for faster game play, and cut down on wasted time. This means more games in an evening of play.<br /><br />Well I hope to have more soon.<br /><br />NoelWeshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15386734616188624789noreply@blogger.com0
