Holy Devlan Mud, this's going to be one of the most epic showdowns in the history of SBG!

Holy cow. I use to have massive all-out battles a long time ago, but we only maxed out at about 200 models per side. This, on the other hand, is ridiculous. In a good way!

^ Scib's avy perfectly depicts my expression when I saw this battlefield. haha :-D

I'm assuming with the system in the back-ground Commander Shepard is available in reserve. If so that may unbalance the fight

This is insane. Can't wait for more.

Quick update at the start of my turn 2. We started playing at 11am.

My eagles are due to arrive this turn :twisted:

I am currently leading the kill count 36-31

Are those pink cave trolls near the bottom right? Could we get a close up of one, they look interesting

I'm pretty sure those are Tom Bill and Bert

Starting at 11? Bet you finished the first turn at 2 :lol:

They are cave trolls.

In other news, a mumak just trampled an entire warband of vault wardens...not impressed. And samwise got smacked to high hell by sauron...

It won't get finished lol. But we are playing until mid afternoon tomorrow probably. Should get another couple of turns in. As for points, probably between 10-15k per side roughly.

Here is a link to all the photos on facebook.

This is where mumaks come into their own. It's so crowded that your opponents can't just spread out and move away. Of course there's so many warriors that it's fairly easy to swarm them and kill them, but still....Doing a reanactment of pellenor fields would be awesome, I'm talking ~10 mumaks and a lot of mounted rohan.

More photos in the facebook album.

Wow, just insane. In a good kind of way :p.

Sauron being escorted by a dragon, a drake, and a Balrog.....it's beautiful.....

Fantastic! I suspect that it took about 3 days to complete?

Good call Leonardis, I used to play the Siege of Gondor/Battle of the Pelennor fields over Christmas every year with about 2 thirds of the miniatures that these guys have managed to field. I do feel inspired towards another big game!
