The Slaughter Is Now
|
|
|
|
This is it, guys - the
Sheffield Slaughter is upon us and in two short days sixty-odd Warhammerers will see that battle is well and truly joined! If previous Slaughters are anything to go by this one promises to be a mighty good event too, especially because of the scenario cards, but also because we have all the usual shenanigans. We'll see you all there bright and early on Saturday morning, but if you're making your way to Sheffield on Friday night pop in to the Davy Sports Club - whilst we can't set up the boards, we can certainly sink a few beers!
Just another short missive to digest: I've managed to get the new
Winter Warhammer 2005 campaign page up, as you're probably aware by now, but please note that this brand new look is still very much under construction - not all the links to various pages work, so you're taking your life (well, your browser) in your own hands. Most of the Slayers pages are around, though...
Anyway: see you at the Slaughter folks!

A New Winter
|
|
|
|
I know, I know. I promised you the
Winter Warhammer 2005 campaign page and results over the weekend, but events have transpired to knock that on the head for a little while. Not the campaign itself I hasten to add, just me getting on with the website. Basically, the site has been undergoing a revamp behind the scenes over the past few months and rather than stick with the old format I've decided to get the campaign page into the new format, which will a) make it easier for me to update and b) be a lot easier on the eye!
To that end, I'm hopeful of getting the new campaign page sorted for this weekend, and whilst the rest of the site will continue in the old format for the time being you'll be able to see how it will all look... eventually!

Slaughter Rules Update
|
|
|
|
Here we are chaps - an update to the Rules Pack for this year's
Sheffield Slaughter, which is of course only two weeks away - let's hope you've all got your accommodation sorted! It's not an extensive one, it's more of a tweak really, but it needed to be done nevertheless. Major changes are in the Royal Tournament, so please make sure you read that again thoroughly, with a few minor tweaks to the scenario cards and the Treasure of the Dragon Slayers. Thanks must go to all those who have commented, queried and generally pulled apart everything in the previous set of rules!
Other Dragon Slayer news: there's been a couple of drop-outs from the
Sheffield Slaughter so I'll be updating the list of entrants very soon. Those on the reserves list should expect to be contacted pretty soon! As well as that, the first night of this year's
Winter Warhammer 2005 was held on Tuesday and over the weekend I'll be getting the campaign page sorted and hopefully all the results up. No slacking here!
See you in a few!

2004 has gone!

Happy New Beer!

Scary, innit? 2005 is here but spare a thought for 2004: twelve months chock-full of wargaming nonsense that only really strange and/or terminally bizarre people could actually understand has gone the way of the dodo and it seems only fitting to remember it (the year, not the dodo). Have a peep at the Scrapbook section in which you will find, among other things, a little Best of 2004 review as well as a page for December. All that and I've not even had any beers today... yet!
Remembering 2004 won't stop us enjoying another twelve months chock-full of wargaming nonsense though, for 2005 will be a cracker methinks: in three short weeks the
Sheffield Slaughter will be held and, whilst there's still a little tweaking of the Rules Pack to look forward to - hopefully coming this week - it promises to be (adopt American voice) awesome. Truly awesome! So awesome, in fact, that the
GW UKGT Finals, just two weeks later, may well just prove to be a postscript.
Not only that, but also... the
Winter Warhammer 2005 campaign will begin this very Tuesday (after the Annual General Meeting, of course) so make sure you sharpen your spears for that one: it will be very interesting indeed. Practice, practice, practice folks...
Right. Duty done, I'm off for a few beers. Happy New Beer from the Dragon Slayers!
