Durban War Games Club

From all of us at the DWGC we wish you and yours a  VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!! May all your Christmas presents contain wargaming goodness and may you find the time to paint them! Remember to stay safe during this season!

For the last few years Games Workshop held a special Advent Calendar where they released new rules or books for use or about their games; short stories, single character rules, missions, scenarios 

Some news and updates for everyone:

Andrea and Daniel threw some dice at each other and here are the results.

There's been a slowing down of content on the blog lately. My bad! The silly season has hit, which means there's very little time to do anything. If however, you have any news or content you'd like to submit, just pop me a mail at darrynster@gmail.com and I'll make a plan for ya!

Salamnders take on Tau in a ferocious battle

In an age old grudge match, Brad and Mark had it out in one of the final telling league games of this year.

James' Dark Eldar and Jashin's Forces of Chaos went head to head in battle. Here is what happened:

That's right!!! The league is being extended further than its normal deadline. Last day for league games will be the 16th of December. Get gaming people!!

Games Workshop sucks balls. Their lack of FAQ's and vague interpretations are absolutely and utterly annoying. I tried to make a post earlier on concerning house rules but after further debate it seems that they definately do not work. Hence I propose the following:

No not of the DWGC, we will never die! But this year's league is reaching its end.

Tyranids VS chaos Daemons.... What else can be said? Its brutal!

We had an interview with one of our newest members, Shane, and asked him some questions about his new army, Tyranids. Hit the jump to see the details

So with the release of the War Zone Damocles: Mont'Ka book the Astra Militarum/ Imperial Guard have received new rules in the form of the Cadians. Some interesting formations and Detachments, i'm thinking that maybe this is what they need to get back into the game! ( here's a link to the leaked stuff ) So who will be breaking out their old Guard? Can we see a return of the Leafblower on the horizon? Does anyone have any good tactical ideas they would like to share?? I for one cannot wait to see the teeming ranks of the Militarum on the battlefield, whether i lose against them or not. So come on! Bring out your Dead!

We asked Kevin to show off his Space Marine Salamanders. here's his army in all its glory:

Brad's Eldar and Stephen's Space Wolves had a furious game of dice throwing. Here's their take on it:

The Imperium's Car Mechanics had an argument with the Blood Angels over the last few days. Here's what happened: 

Cate's Eldar battled it out against Matt's Black Templar, in a winner-takes-all fight to the death. See the results here:

The latest version of the Imperial Armour: Doom of Mymeara is up for pre-order on Forge World and it looks damn brutal!

Stephen's Space Wolves took on Ryan's Dark Angels and Imperial Knight. Here's their battle report:

Kevin and Kyle had a round of Age of Sigmar, using all the models from the boxed set. here's what they had to say about it:

Andrea has developed a huge Daemon army since he started playing Warhammer. Here are some pictures of the vast hordes at his command.

The Eightscarred had a rumble with the new Tau. Here is what happens when rage meets precision

The DWGC league results have been updated. Click here !

Soooo.... Games workshop has made a wonderful ruleset that basically throws its own rules into the grinder. which really doesn't help anything. At all.

Brandon and Daniel had a game of 1500pts last thursday. Here are the details:

Bradley and Jashin had a game of 1850 points on Thursday night. Here's the details of it:

Saw the above up on SpikeyBits . Seems like a pretty good idea! Go to the link to get more info! I dont wanna copy paste!!

Norman!!! He's Real!! The above image is proof that the man actually exists. Nice shirt too. There were many cries of amazement at seeing him finally, although in some cases it was more of a shrug (see exhibit b, Kevin, lower left hand corner) So we has some fun last night, spending too much money as usual and throwing dice around! Battle reports will follow soon so keep your eyes peeled. Unfortunately I forgot to take some pictures of the battle between Andrea and i, but we'll make up for it later. Don't forget the Horus Heresy Event tomorrow! Sooooo keen on opening that box!!! BTW: the Unseen Shoppe has some of the white dwarves with the free pins available! they're running out!!

According to this here post on Bell of Lost Souls  the Australian segment of Games Workshop has been given the rights to maintain all the old Specialist Games that GW used to offer. this was the letter posted up on facebook: If this is true then i know for a fact that i will definitely be getting my Battlefleet Gothic on....

Got some awesome games lined up tonight! The following match ups are happening Cate (Eldar) vs Matty (Black Templars) Brad (Eldar) vs Jashin (Chaos Space Marines) Stephen (Space wolves) vs Ryan (Dark Angels and Knight) Darryn (Khorne Daemonkin) vs Andrea (Tau Empire) Brandin (Dark Eldar) vs Daniel (Crimson Fists) Looks like its gonna be a ball of fun! Expect to see some battle reports soon. (if i missed anyone's game let me know)
