Roadtrip : Gameforge Penang 25-26 February 2012

I've only ever gone on a hobby road trip once in my life. And it was a total blast!! Good friends, great event, overall awesome experience. That was way back in 2010 and the event was organised by those hensem people at Gameforge Penang.
Check out my report on the trip here :)
Gameforge 40K combat patrol

So when i heard that those cool guys up north will be organizing another event this year, you can bet your retirement fund savings that i'll be going!! This time it'll be a 500 points Warhammer Fantasy border patrol.

I'm also roping in my partners in pillage from the last roadtrip, Jeff Deathkorps the merciless and Iqbal treeplanter the relentlessness to join in the fun again :)

We've managed to convince renegade inquisitor Kravin to lend us his brand new bloodraven(is this what those corky inquisitions call their version of the stormraven...) so this time we'll be traveling in style. He also allowed us use of his personal driver-bot so the journey should be fun.
Those cannibals and forest druids we saw during the last trip are so gonna be meltad and blown to bits if i see any of them again!!!

2012 will be a defining year for Legio Malaysia. We've planned some very interesting projects...and the approach and concept will be different from what we've done in previous years.

One of which is to attend regional (outside klang valley) hobby events which involves miniatures. Give us ample notification, promise us a good time, ensure enough painted craters are available (coz my opponents always gets 6s when rolling for my vehicle damage), the stars are aligned nicely (meaning it doesn't clash with our events) and you can bet your bottom dollar that you'll see us there!!!

So join in the fun if you can. Just shoot us an email. For those who need Royal Immigration/Home Mininster approval, certified documents can be given upon request ;)

Ave Legio!!!

A bridge too far

Legio's Flames of War, Operation Market Garden campaign will be continuing with its penultimate week this Friday.

The combatants who have bravely fought for the past 3 weeks include :  

Allies
1. Lieutenant General Jeff Deathkorp. Armored rifle company, 2nd Armored Division (Allied overall commander)
2. Capt Tan. 101st Airborne Division 501st PIR
3. Capt Khairul. 101st Airborne Division 506th PIR
4. Lt. Yip. 3rd Armored Division (cameo apperance hehe)  

Axis
1. Generalfeldmarschall Alvin Khaw. Schwere SS Panzerkompanie (Axis overall commander)
2. Hauptmann Pura. 6. Fallshirmjagerregiment
3. Hauptmann Shukor. 901 Panzergrenadierkompanie
4. Leutnant Iqbal. 130 Panzerregiment

After 3 weeks of hard fighting the Allies are slowly advancing northwards to capture the main objectives; Nijmegen and Arhnem bridges. These 2 bridges costs 50 and 60 points respectively and will ultimately decide who comes out victorious in this campaign.

The victory points tally so far stands at:
Allies : 64 VP
Axis : 262 VP

At this point, the bridges do look too far.... but the Allies still have 2 weeks to snatch a heroic victory from certain defeat. Bold and aggressive attacks must be made this week!! And you can bet the Axis will not make it easy for them to get to those 2 bridges. Expect to see a konistiger making an appearance soon!!

The fight continues this Friday Hobby Night!!!

RSVP if you dare...

RSVP Time! Market Garden Turn 3

Turn 3 will be fought tomorrow night, moving the campaign past the halfway point. The Allies came out with victories in every game last week- what will happen this time around...?
