Caroburg Chargers

Finally managed to add an Ogre and a couple of throwers to the team. I could still probably do with adding a Halfling, it will need to be one of the older models as the new plastics are of a slightly larger scale. The Ogre is a non-GW version for Spiker. A very nice resin piece. The 2 throwers are from the 3rd edition boxed set. 

I just need to finish off a few more figures for my Goblin team and I will have my 3 teams completed in readiness for Season 2.

New teams

With Season 2 approaching my thoughts turned to a second team to run. I've gone for Goblins, Da Gobstoppas. So far I have 8 painted up. They are a mix of the new plastics and a couple of old 3rd edition models.

The plan is to pick up a couple of Trolls to add a bit of muscle. Mitch has agreed to do a few 3d prints to give me a few of the special weapons. While I wait for the extra figures to arrive I decided to complete an old human team. They are a mix of 1st, 2nd and 3rd edition figures. I do need to add at least 1 thrower. They are named the Caroburg Chargers.

H'angus The Bull

To try and cover as many options for  my Chaos Chosen team, I picked up another 3d printed minotaur. Instead of using black for the flesh like the Beastmen I went for a dark red.

I also had an idea to create a Chaos Champion and to use the rules in Death Zone to create my own star player. The base of the model is one of the Khorne blockers, removed a few of the spikes amd replaced the head. Just need to think of a suitable name.

As the league slowly draws to a close, 2 more games were completed

Cleaveland Bronze bt Tir na nOg Ravens 1-0

A bruising encounter for the Ravens, as once again they struggled without the ball taking a ton of casualties. The Bronze secured the win and have eyes on a top 4 finish

Gryphon Bloodsox drew LV Raiders 1-1

The Bloodsox are still in search of their first win, throwing away victory in the final turn as the Raiders secured the draw and 3rd place.

Beastman Mutant

Managed to pick up one of the old 3rd edition Beastman mutants that were released. This was the one with extra arm. Painted him up in the colours of the Black Sun Gors

I do believe there was also one released with tentacles but a quick look on EBay shows him to be rather pricey. Will keep an eye out for cheaper alternative. 

The Black Sun Gors

As Season 1 draws to a close, I've turned my attention to possible line ups for Season 2. Despite having some plastic figures converted to represent a Chaos Chosen side, I decided to purchase the real deal. I also picked up an Ogre for the big guy option.

The Blockers

Grog the Ogre

The Beastie Boys

Black Sun Gors

I went for a cream and grey/blue colour scheme as I already had the Renegades in black and silver. The Ogre is one of the plastic figures from the Ogre team that I picked up on Ebay. I've also got a 3rd edition Beastman with extra arms to add once I get him painted up. Will try and purchase the other mutant with tentacles for when the team hopefully pick up some mutations. I also had an idea for a Lord Borak . I'll use one of the Khorne Blockers as a basis, removing some of the more pronounced Khorne iconography.

Season Update

 3 more games were completed this week

Clar Karond Corsairs vs LV Raiders 0-0

This was the first game of the season without a Touchdown. The Raiders did well to shut out the Corsairs in the first half before controlling the ball for much of the second. However the Corsair defence also were implacable as they prevent the Riaders making a late score

Tir na nOg Ravens bt Gryphon Bloodsox 2-1

Ghis was a hard fought encounter for 2 teams that have struggled with consistency all season. The Ravens gamely hung on to secure their second win of the season

Clar Karond Corsairs bt Midshire Giants 2-0

The Corsairs clinched the league with an emphatic win over the giants. They spent most of the game keeping out of the clutches of the treemen before pouncing and taking their opportunities to score.

Score Updates

The Miami Rotters are the first team to complete all of their fixtures,beating the Tir na nOg Ravens 3-0, however only drawing 1-1 with the Midshire Giants. Could it be a costly result? as they reach the top of the table but only by a single point.

The LV Raiders moved themselves into contention with a 1-0 win over the Orkland Raidurz. They are next up against the Corsairs, a win could see them move into title contention.
