Starting again.

Mordheim, Frostgrave and generally not having enough time for everything.

So. It has been a very long time since I wrote anything on this blog. The original intention was to try and record the event that transpired during our forays into the City of the Damned and how our warbands developed over the course of the campaign.

Unfortunately life has a way of getting in the way of things like this and a couple of job changes requiring longer journeys or longer hours has meant that there has been little drive left to record anything for posterity. However, with a new (academic) year and getting to a point where I feel comfortable enough with my time management means I will be reviving this blog.

In general we found that the campaign structure of Mordheim led to its ultimate demise; the map whilst adding plenty of flavour meant that actual encounters between warbands were very difficult to organise. This interest dwindled until a short time ago when we discovered the Felstad, the Frozen City (thankfully no angsty teens with frost powers singing about their lives in sight!).

Thanks to Christian's enthusiasm we had a new campaign and several participants. Sadly my own warband has fallen so far behind that I had lost interest due to absences and being unable to organise games. However I still aim to stand triumphant over their charred corpses and transcend the physical realms to become a being of pure power mwahahahahaha!

Ahem. Anyway, this means that I will be creating a new warband and participating in a few npc skirmishes to gain enough experience to challenge their designs on the hidden power within Felstad. This means sitting down and assembling a new warband and working out which disciplines will work best for me and my playstyle. Hopefully future posts will show the development and painting of these characters.
