A photo of a three-player game of Warhammer Underworlds. It's played on three rectangular boards sitting together in a T-shape, there are tiles marked out with hexes, and the artwork looks like you're inside a cave. Closest to the camera are Lady Harrow's Mournflight, four swooping spirits in sickly green. To the right at The Dread Pagent, three humans in purple clothing and light armour and then a very large goat man holding a huge sword above his head. Lastly at the left are the six beastmen of Grashrak's Despoilers, all wearing raggy armour and clothing.

We went over to @oysta@oysta.au's for an excellent game of Warhammer Underworlds this afternoon. I decided to simplify things a bit and we just used the Beastgrave/Direchasm era warbands with their stock decks, me with Lady Harrow's Mournflight, @yayKM with Grashrak's Despoilers, and @oysta@oysta.au with the Slaanesh warband The Dread Pagent.

It was VERY tight at the end of the second round, with me and @oysta@oysta.au tied on 11 glory each, and @yayKM not far behind on 8, but I was able to score several objectives and make a couple of kills thanks to some crazy-good rolling, and the final score was me on 17, @oysta@oysta.au on 12, and @yayKM sadly still on 8.

Next time we're going to do an all-Chaos game with @oysta@oysta.au staying with the Dread Pagent, @yayKM using Khorne's Gorechosen of Dromm, and I'll probably use the Nurgle warband The Wurmspat (though now I think about it, maybe this might be a good reason for me to finally finish painting the Tzeentch warband Ephilim's Pandaemonium...).

In addition to Warhammer Underworlds, we met the most adorable staffie puppy named Hendrix, who is only 12 weeks old! 😍 He was SO excited to smell us, and he had his entire snout and part of his head fully inside my shoe after we arrived, haha.

A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board. It has hex tiles on it, and the artwork looks like the inside of a cave. Closest to the camera are Morgwaeth's Blade-coven, a five-fighter warband consisting of lithe female elves who aren't wearing a whole lot of armour. At the other end of the board are the six goatmen of Grashrak's Despoilers: two are larger and more intimidating looking, one is holding a giant axe in the air and is gripping the head of someone he just decapitated, and the other four are smaller and shabbier, wielding bows and spears.

More Warhammer Underworlds tonight, my murder-ladies versus @yayKM's filthy goatmen. We ended up calling it after the first activation of the third round because she had exactly one 2-wound character left and I was ahead 8-5. Unfortunately I think it might be time to retire the goatmen, or at least until I can get around to stealing someone's Championship format deck, they're just too weak. 😞

A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board. It has hex tiles on it, and the artwork looks like the bottom of a forest with gnarled roots everywhere. Closest to the camera are the three miniatures of The Wurmspat, they're all humanoid but corpulent with pustulant skin and extra tentacles coming from various places. At the other end of the board are the six goatmen of Grashrak's Despoilers: two are larger and more intimidating looking, one is holding a giant axe in the air and is gripping the head of someone he just decapitated, and the other four are smaller and shabbier, wielding bows and spears.

We played another game of Warhammer Underworlds tonight, @yayKM's filthy goatmen versus my even filthier and significantly more pustulant devotees of Nurgle. It was the lowest scoring game we've had in ages, I managed to get to 9 glory but only right at the end, and @yayKM only got 2. However, she can take solace in the fact that on no fewer than three occasions she needed to roll a critical success in order to not die (essentially rolling a 6 on a regular six-sided die), and managed to pull it off!

Once we'd finished I came back around the lounge to get the bag and put all the pieces away and Beanie had made himself extremely comfortable next to one of the foam trays.

A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board. It has hex tiles on it, and the artwork looks like the inside of a cave. Closest to the camera are Skittershank's Clawpack, which consists five ratmen in various dynamic poses (one of them is in the middle of leaping over a smoke bomb he's just set off). At the other end of the board are the six goatmen of Grashrak's Despoilers: two are larger and more intimidating looking, one is holding a giant axe in the air and is gripping the head of someone he just decapitated, and the other four are smaller and shabbier, wielding bows and spears.

We played some more Warhammer Underworlds tonight, my sneaky tricksy Skaven versus @yayKM's filthy goatmen. I ended up winning 11-8 but MAN was it tight right up until my very last activation of the whole game. The attacks I made in my second last and last activations were absolutely critical, because had I flubbed them — or had @yayKM successfully defended — she would have won 8-5 instead. Fully SIX glory came from killing her leader (two for killing him because he was a Large fighter, and another four from three different objectives)!

A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board. The artwork looks like a bunch of huge tree roots and on one side they look like they're going down into a river of blood. On the side closest to the camera are six zombies and a zombie master in a flowing purple cloak, and on the other side are six beastly goatmen.

First game of Warhammer Underworlds in a while, and my first outing with the Exiled Dead! @yayKM won 9-7 with Grashrak's Despoilers, and I realised I was playing a couple of things wrong and also misread one of my objectives.

It was a lot of fun though, and the shenanigans with Exiled Dead are fantastic.

A photo of the game board of a Warhammer Underworlds game. The artwork on it looks like a bunch of gnarled roots and it's covered in hexagons that indicate distances. Closest to the camera are Grashrak's Despoilers, six beastmen wielding very crude-looking weapons and wearing not a huge amount of armour. Facing them are Khagra's Ravagers, four very heavily-armed- and -armoured human warriors.

And tonight's Wednesday night gaming was Warhammer Underworlds! Khagra's Ravagers versus Grashrak's Despoilers. The Despoilers were mine, made with the new Nemesis format, and while I won 12-8, I don't think the Tooth and Claw deck is the right one for them, they're a bit too fragile to be wading into combat.

A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board. The board itself is covered in hexes with the artwork underneath looking like deep within a cave, and at the front closest to the camera are six savage beastmen all yelling and wielding weapons like they're about to charge, and facing them across the board are four lithe and elegant aelves.

We were going to go play some X-wing at a friend's place with my new play board, but he wasn't feeling up for it so Kristina and I played some Warhammer Underworlds instead! Aelves versus filthy goatmen, and despite a strong start, it all fell apart at the end for me thanks to some terrible rolling on my part (and some really lucky rolling on Kristina's), and she won 11-9.

A photo of a Warhammer Underworlds game board, it has hexagonal tiles on it and the artwork on the board looks like the inside of a cave. Skaeth's WIld Hunt are on one side, and they're all elegant and flowing wood elf-like creatures, with the leader being a centaur, and on the other side Grashrak's Despoilers are ugly and brutish-looking goat-men.

We went back to OG Beastgrave for our game of Warhammer Underworlds tonight, Grashrak's Despoilers vs. Skaeth's Wild Hunt. I've been watching videos from Tabletop Sydney where they play Underworlds and so have been getting a really firm grasp of tactics, and Kristina was a bit concerned that she'd just never end up winning again. So for this game I played an advisory role and Kristina ended up winning 14-8!

A photo of the board of a Warhammer Underworlds game. The board has hexagonal tiles printed on it, and there's six goat-looking beastmen on the right side (Grashrak's Despoilers) and three heavily-armoured warriors in gold and dark blue armour on the left (Ironsoul's Condemnors).

We had another visit from Ben today, dropped Beanie down to one single one of his pills, and honestly I think we could have entirely done without them! Beanie didn't even bark to start with, and after that it was just excited barking rather than panicked.

We played Warhammer Underworlds again but with me in an advisory role and it went really well, was a close game right up until the end.

A photo of a four-player game of Warhammer Underworlds. The board has hexes marked out on it, at the bottom right are Hrothgorn's Mantrappers (a big ogre and 4 goblins), bottom left at Morgok's Krushas (3 heavily-armoured orks), top-left are Grashrak's Despoilers (6 goat people), and top-right is Lady Harrow's Mournflight (4 ghosts).

Had another four-player game of Warhammer Underworlds today! I played Hrothgorn's Mantrappers for the first time and won with them. Though next time we're going to do two 1v1 games, because a four-player game with three people who aren't experts takes a while, haha.
