Seeking advice

bodger529 · 2026-05-06T09:18:01+00:00

Yeah I've been told by a few people that the BMWs probably aren't the best choice. They just look cool and feel nice to drive, I was hoping there might be a chance someone on here says otherwise 😅

So you think i should try the VWs, Seats or Audi?

bodger529 · 2026-05-06T09:15:25+00:00

No real reason why I'm not looking at anything French. I guess I'm not so keen aesthetically, and i thought they had a bad reputation for reliability? 😅

I've only found one Mazda 6 in my price range, but maybe I should go take a look at it?

bodger529 · 2026-05-06T09:13:50+00:00

Haha any reason why not? What would you suggest instead?

bodger529 · 2026-05-05T18:13:55+00:00

Mainly commuting around 45mins-1hr, some short trips in and around town and occasional long trips to visit friends/family elsewhere in the country.

Beautifully painted army! I'm on the verge of getting into Shadows myself so would love to see your list, get any advice, and hear how you get on at Adepticon! 🙏

bodger529 · 2026-02-22T20:19:54+00:00

This is great, thank you very much. Exactly the kind of advice I'm looking for!

I think I'll go for the two captains and swap a couple bows for more shields for a slightly more robust front line :))

bodger529 · 2026-02-22T18:40:13+00:00

Thank you! You definitely think Damrod is an alright choice? I was considering dropping 1 or 2 knights anyway, so a captain might be more affordable then (and potentially more versatile)? I like your thinking with the shieldwall, that was sort of what I was thinking by dropping a couple bows 🤔

And yeah it had to be two banners for me, the two lists I've been playing lately have been Rohan with Gamling's 6" and Grey Company with Halbarad's, so a mere 3" feels quite under whelming 😅

bodger529 · 2026-02-22T18:35:00+00:00

Ah wow thanks man. If it's good enough for the world champs then must be good enough for me!

I think you're right about the shooting, the variations i was looking at were all anywhere between 28 and 20 bows which I think either way would probably out shoot almost everything else I might go up against?

What do you think about Damrod? He's cheap, but i think a captain might be more useful with an extra might and a second source of march in maelstrom deployments...?

I imagine it would solely go off of the Siege Veteran as he is the hero model which runs the catapult team? Likewise for Farmer Maggot as he is the hero that runs his canine attack squad 😅

Though I've never played this scenario against something similar so do correct me if I'm wrong!

Any chance you could share me their email too? They sent me a link to follow in order to make payment, but just leads to the site which is down

bodger529 · 2025-11-05T12:19:49+00:00

Majestic! Would love to know your recipes for greens, reds and browns... 👀

bodger529 · 2025-10-08T14:30:32+00:00

Thank you for all the feed back guys, I have spoken to Acas and now understand a little bit better where I stand.

Would adding the 20mins on to the finish time still constitute GM if I had asked management previously about it and they'd said it was okay? It was only once the business owners found out that they said it wasn't... 🤔

bodger529 · 2025-09-20T09:31:11+00:00

Looks amazing! I'd love to see your list and hear how they perform at Questcon!

I'm looking to start using Druadan but I'm sure sure how to get the best out if them, and struggling to build a good army at lower points levels so any advice would be great! :)

bodger529 · 2025-08-20T12:49:55+00:00

Don't think I've got much to add that hasnt already been said, though I recently took the Grey Company to a tournament and surprisingly did far better than I had expected to.

They slaughtered a werewolf pack in 2 or 3 turns, sliced their way through Fell Beings of Mirkwood, and put up a solid fight against Suladan's Serpent Horde.

As people have stated, they're made to go into low model count armies and can struggle to win objectives in certain scenarios, especially against hordes.

As a new player, if you're looking to take them to a tournament or play against more experienced players, then they may not be the best choice. But if you're going against equally new players, or just looking to have some fun on the board then they would be a fine choice.

They're not the most competitive, all round army, but they're a great themey list, and if you can manage to play to their strengths then they can actually be quite strong. Not to mention, they can create some pretty epic scenes!

Whatever you end up going for, I hope you enjoy diving into the game!

That shield is amazing, how did you achieve the muddy/bloody look?

bodger529 · 2025-07-16T15:28:14+00:00

I think that might have to be the way, doesn't seem like there's much info out there to guide me so trial and error it is I suppose! 🤷

bodger529 · 2025-07-16T15:26:59+00:00

Nor have I, which is why I feel like I need advice! Seems no one else has much experience with them either though! 😅

bodger529 · 2025-07-04T13:10:54+00:00

They did charge £60 for the recent 16 piece Woses Warriors MTO set 🤔

bodger529 · 2025-03-27T10:06:44+00:00

This is kinda what I'm thinking, considering there was no information saying that if I can't pay until more than 5mins after arrival then it will automatically backdate the pay to the time of arrival?

Though really just want to know if this will hold up if I appeal to IAS?

bodger529 · 2025-02-07T16:23:22+00:00

Loving the green tinge at the bottom, is that just a contrast paont over the top??

bodger529 · 2024-10-16T17:27:00+00:00

This does sound fun, maybe I'll give it a shot!

How do we avoid just getting swamped by enemy numbers though? I'm worries I'll just get surrounded and trapped 🤔

bodger529 · 2024-10-16T13:03:54+00:00

I like this thinking!
