Fantasy Adventure

I've decided, after 15+ years, to get back into playing warhammer fantasy battle.

I've always like the brettonians and wood elf armies but after doing some research have found out that these two armies aren't very good in the latest edition of WFB. Now I definitely go for fun over winning but if I loose ALL my games then I'll just get depressed with the game and pack it up for another 15 years.

So I did a bit more research, and looked at the miniature ranges and have decided to go for warriors of chaos. The WoC and meant to be a simple army to use, run forward and hit stuff, but still has the potential for a lot of character, the marks of chaos. Also the miniatures from warhammer forge are too nice to say no to!

To start off I've purchased the WOC battalion to get the army kick started. All I had to purchase now was a sorcerer to lead the army, I like the idea of a corrupt wizard leading a war band :-) I suddenly remembered that having been to the last few games days I had the miniatures from them. These are a chaos sorcerer and a chaos champion. I had to include these as they're nice models as well as powerful characters. To round out the army I'm going to get a unit of 5 marauder horsemen.

So far I'm building a 1250 list which looks like this-

    General
    Mark of Tzeentch
    Level 2 Upgrade
    Infernal Puppet

Exalted Hero
    Mark of Khorne
    Extra Hand Weapon
    Favour of the Gods

    Mark of Tzeentch
    Musician
    Standard Bearer - Blasted Standard

    Standard Bearer
    Great Weapons
    Marauder Chieftan

Marauder Horsemen - 5
    Mark of Slaanesh
    Musician
    Standard Bearer
    Spears
    Marauder Chieftan

Chaos Hounds - 10
    Scaly Skin

Chaos Knights - 5
    Mark of Nurgle

    Standard Bearer - Banner of Wrath

I've got my first game this Monday so I'll see how it all works, if at all!
