A photo of a game of Warhammer Underworlds. There are two rectangular boards with hex tiles on them, the art on the boards looks like the inside of a cave, and there's two pieces of scenery in the two blocked hexes, one is a giant set of yellow crystals and the other is a massive horned skull. Closest to the camera are the four vampires of the Crimson Court, they have pale blue skin and red cloaks, with blood dripping from their weapons and the corners of their mouths. On the other side of the board are the Gorechosen of Dromm, a three-fighter warband consisting of very large meaty-looking warriors in large red armour.

Another game of Warhammer Underworlds, @yayKM took the Gorechosen of Dromm again and after last game I realised that horde warbands really don't work against the Gorechosen so I went for the undead majesty of the vampires of the Crimson Court. It wasn't looking great for the vampires at the end of Turn 2, but a couple of lucky rolls on my part meant the game ended up with none of my vampires dead, all three of the Gorechosen wiped off the board, and I ended up winning 14-8.

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 Exiled Dead, a warband of seven miniatures consisting of six zombies and the zombiemaster Deintalos. Four of the have very Frankenstein-esque metal poles coming out of them like they're being animated by electricity, the fifth is more upright and has armour and a halberd, and the sixth is crouched down low to the ground. Deintalos is wearing a flowing purple robe and carrying a staff. On the other side of the board are the Gorechosen of Dromm, a three-fighter warband consisting of very large meaty-looking warriors in large red armour.

A close-up of the Gorehulk, a very large miniature that looks like he's been partially transformed into a demon with massive muscular arms and shoulders and a huge set of horns sprouting from both his head and behind his shoulders. His right arm pulled back like he's about to punch the absolutely living shit out of something. Surrounding him are four of my zombies.

@yayKM and I played our first 1v1 game of Warhammer Underworlds in quite a while this afternoon, @yayKM with the Gorechosen of Dromm versus my Exiled Dead! It started out well for the Exiled Dead in the first turn, I killed The Gorehulk and was up 3-0 glory, but it absolutely fell apart after that even despite some very lucky rolling on my part. I scored _zero_ more glory until I killed Herax in the second-last activation of the whole game, and scored one objective worth one single glory at the very end of the game. There were other objectives I might have been able to score, but @yayKM managed to kill the exact person in the exact spot that I needed them to be in in order to score them. >_< The final score was 11-5, oof.

A photo of a three-player game of Warhammer Underworlds. There's three rectangular boards with hex tiles on them in an inverted-T shape, the art on the boards looks like the inside of a cave. At the left are the five Skaven ratmen of Skittershank's Clawpack, at the right are the three heavily armoured human(ish) warriors of the Gorechosen, and at the top are three heavily armoured green orks.

A closeup photo of one of my little Skaven surrounded by the three orks of the Krushas that are absolutely looming over him.

We went over to @[email protected]'s this afternoon to introduce him to Warhammer Underworlds! He played Morgok's Krushas, @yayKM had the Gorechosen of Dromm, and I played Skittershank's Clawpack, which in retrospect was a terrible choice because the Clawpack inspire by killing enemy leaders, and both the enemy leaders had 5 wounds. I was also extremely let down by multiple poor rolls, and @[email protected] ended up winning at 17-15-5. Definitely keen for another game soon, but I'll definitely NOT be taking the Clawpack again against those two warbands. 😛 One of my little Skaven minions got HORRIBLY ganged up on by all three of the Krushas, he weathered two of their attacks but sadly couldn't make the final one and ended up getting extremely squished.

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 start of a game of Warhammer Underworlds. It's set on a hex-based board, the art on the board looks like it's bunch of gnarled tree roots. Closest to the camera are the Gorechosen of Dromm, a three-fighter warband of large warriors, and on the other side are Khagra's Ravagers, a four-fighter warband of smaller but more heavily-armoured warriors.

Mid-week gaming this week was Chaos vs. Chaos in Warhammer Underworlds: the Gorechosen of Dromm against Khagra's Ravagers! It ended up being a draw at 10-10, but I was extremely happy with that because JESUS CHRIST @[email protected]'s rolling was on FIRE. I think he saved against every single attack I made for the like the first turn and a half with the exception of one initial wallop from the Gorehulk, but the most ridiculous was me rolling two dice on attack and rolling two crits, and to avoid Khagra dying he needed to roll two crits on defence ...which he pulled off. I guess it makes up for the absolute wholloping I gave him last time (https://virtualwolf.org/media/posts/2302). 😅

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 Ironsoul's Condemnors, three heavily-armoured warriors in deep blue and gold armour wielding maces and shields. Facing them are the Shadeborn, four lithe elves in very dynamic poses with very pale skin and wearing deep purple clothing.

First game of Warhammer Underworlds with the new Gnarlwood rules, Ironsoul's Condemnors vs. the Shadeborn! I used Battle Mallet's suggested Nemesis deck (https://www.battle-mallet.com/nemesis-decks/) for the Condemnors because it turned out the one I had put together a while back sucked, and it was very fun, but ended up very one-sided, oops. It was partially due to some lucky rolling on my part, but we called it half-way through the second turn out of three total because I'd wiped out @yayKM's warband entirely and the score was already 9-5. Fighter of the match goes to Brodus Blightblade who single-handedly killed two of the four enemy warriors outright (the first one in the first activation of turn one) and did two out of three damage to a third one that allowed me to ping that third one for an extra one damage to kill him. I really like the new rule changes for activations specifically, and the Nemesis format is great.

A photo of a two-player game of Warhammer Underworlds. It's a combination miniatures/deck building game played on a board with hexes on it, the artwork on the board looks like it's in a sea cave or something. Closest to the camera are four vampires with red cloaks on, and facing them are four lithe elves painted mostly in deep purples.

First game of Warhammer Underworlds in a little while, the vampires of the Crimson Court vs. sneaky aelves of the Shadeborn. It was a very low-scoring game, I won with the Court 9-7 but on THREE separate occasions @yayKM needed to roll a critical success (essentially rolling a 6 on one single D6) or one of her characters would die, and she managed it all three times.

A photo of a game of Warhammer Underworlds. It's a miniatures game played on a board with hex tiles on it, on my side are three very large armoured warriors, and facing them are four lithe and much more lightly armoured elves.

I took Khorne's finest for a spin tonight, and while they ended up winning 14-5 (and are quite fun to play, to boot!), at the start of the last round it really could have gone either way. My leader had one single wound left and I had several things that relied on him being alive. 😬

A photo of a game of Warhammer Underworlds. It's a miniature-and-card-based game played on boards with hex tiles on them. On the board were my warband of six armoured skeletons, four spooky ghost-looking things, four lithe elves, and three lightly armoured humans alongside a big S&M-looking goat-man.

Mid-week gaming this week was a FOUR-player game of Warhammer Underworlds! Unsurprisingly we only got through one round, but one of the players hadn't even played before. I managed to eke out a win on 8 glory, and Kristina came back from nowhere to finish on 7.
