Battle Record - Middle Earth Army of the Dead Vs Shadows of Angmar? #MESBG 09/07/26

Afternoon #Warhammer Community we've been playing MESBG again. This time Army of the Dead with Aragorn Vs maybe Shadows of Angmar. There was definitely Gulavhar, Werewolves, Spectres and a Shade


The mission had three objectives, with the centre one worth more, and even more if your general was controlling it. As usual the memories are sketchy but I'll probably recall things as I go along. I had considered taking Army of the Dead to the next Midweek MESBG in September, so this would be a fun way to see what they're about. Fast is one thing. My warband in the bottom left managed to get up to the corner ruin and then next turn just float over/through it!


Gulavhar then took their place to keep out of the way. 


Meanwhile Wargs and werewolves trapped a few ghosts, but could not kill them because they're so darn tough.


Gulavhar go in behind our defence of the centre objective. Will was very certain things would end successfully for him, his dad not so much.


I think we started to lose a few ghosts


And then we trapped Gulavhar.


But the dice were not with us! 🎲🎲🎲😱


I think we eventually got broken and so the game came to an end. Otty and Will had managed to get more round the objectives. We'd been tough but invariably neither side had been able to capitalise much when winning a duel. Just killing enough and ending the game in a better position had won the game for them.


A lot of fun. Jury is out on whether I'd prefer to take them in September, maybe some more games needed? Liam is away on holiday for the next two weeks now, so it'll be limited attendance for shed night.
