Clash this year was a whopper. 80 players attending and, naturally, some absolutely stunning armies in attendance. I had a fantastic time yet again and really enjoyed the entire weekend. Coming into the event I had some big shoes to fill. Last year I managed to fluke myself to the number 1 spot and people … Continue reading 2018 Clash of Kings – A fall from grace

My bets for Clash of Kings Champ 2018
Predicting who exactly will win a tournament is near impossible, especially one as large as Clash of Kings. I’m still going to give it a go, but discuss a few different people. Now, you could just go through the top rankings players but that’s a bit obvious and a bit boring. I want to discuss … Continue reading My bets for Clash of Kings Champ 2018
Experiencing your first CoK
As I write this, we’re now less than 3 weeks away from the UK Clash of Kings 2018.

During 1st edition the community was tiny. … Continue reading Casual gamer? Go to a tournament!

Tournament Report: Clash at Kingston
Saturday 11th March saw me attend my first tournament with my Abyssal Dwarfs army. It was a rush! Even as of Tuesday that week I barely had half of the army painted. In the end I managed to cobble together a painted force in true tournament fashion, finishing painting it with the 3 colour minimum … Continue reading Tournament Report: Clash at Kingston

Yesterday I attended a tournament held in Wakefield, the Beers of War tournament. This was the first tournament organised by brothers Luke and Lee Fellows and was set in a rather lovely venue of the Henry Boons pub - a pub whose presence I graced on many occasion when I lived near Shakey Wakey. This … Continue reading Beers of War tournament writeup
