Well, this was my first battle of warhammer one on one about 3 years ago



My army:
HE lord on horse with items
HE archmage with items

22 Spearmen full command

10 Archers full command

1 Tiranoc chariot

His army:
Bret lord with items
Paladin BSB with valorous standart


12 men@arms full command

16 men@arms full command

16 archers + musician

7 archers + champion

1 QK

7 Kotr

This was annon-official game between us. We just grabbed what we had and started playing so even tough I slaughtered him, keep in mind that we weren't playing with the real point rules.
For example I used two lord choices on my HE army while he used double my numbers.

And the strange thing he said when i looked mouth open was:
"numbers do not win battles"
That was the smartest thing he had ever said :D 

We only remembered to take pics when the game was almost finished.


This is the battlefield, in the left corner u see a army book but there was a cliff there where i deployed my mage. In my left part of my deployment i had some woods
his peloyment had a small house on the left corner, a small keep in the back of his deployment and a keep with a small ruin in his right

In the beginning of the game i deployed my archers in front of the woods and the spearmen between the woods and the cliff.

My tiranoc was between the spearmen and the cliff and my lord was between my spearmen and the woods.

His BSB QK and lord were deployed on his left corner facing my archers his men@arms were deployed side-by-side one unit facing the woods the other facing my lord.
After the large unit of men@arms there was the unit of 16 archers (4x4) facing my speamens and tiranoc
and after that there was the 7 kotr in 4 on first line and 3 on the second.
after them in the hill there was the small unit of 7 archers taking cover in the ruins.
He took the blessing but i wanted him to go first.
He charged with his QK and BSB in direction of my archers in the woods his lord remained.
His bigger unit men@arms also charged. the second moved 4 inches
The rest remained in place i was 5 inches out of range of his archers
in my turn my archers shooted and killed his QK and wounded his BSB. I moved everyone but my archers and archamge 2 inches forward
his turn he moved his BSB 2 inches out of charge range
both his men@arms continued. rest remained
my turn
I moved my archmage to the corner of the cliff
My archers killed and BSB and 2 men@arms
my arhcamge castd flames of the phoenix on his bigger unit of men@arms and killed 4!!! rotherwood launched the dice to see if they standed (he hoped they fled so that i spared them) and got out with and amazing 1 in each dice!!!!
all remained normal.
His turn he moved his smaller unit of men@arms to show their unguarded back to my spearmen. he moved his 7 archers out of the ruins and shot at my archmage, they failed to wound.
my turn i remain in place but cast flames of phoenix on his archers killing two.
My tiranoc also shoots them killing 2 and they break. (they jump of the table in the end)
my archers shot his other men@arms killing 2
his turn

He marches with his kotr. and lord. His menarms and his 16 archers move to support the kotr, men at arms in his flank and archers a little at their back, the bigger unit is reduced to his banner and champion.
my turn i charge his kotr with my spearmen. My tiranoc moves and charges kotr
flank my archers move forward in the direction of his lord.
My lord marches and challenges his lord

My lord fails to cause wounds with 7 attacks!!!! but my horse wounds him!!!!!
Good horsie! :)
My archmage kills none kotr with flames of phoenix, my tiranoc kills 1 and the spearmen with 18 attacks!! fail everithing.
In his turn his men@arms charge my spearmen in the flank and kill 1.



His archers shoot my archers and kill 2
His lord fails all
His men@arms charge my archers but out of charge range

My turn flames oh phonix kill2 kotr all attacks against them fail. My archamge moves and charges his men@arms in my spearmen flank and kills 1
the spearmen kill 2 men@arms.
my achers kill 2 archers and my lord kills nothing.

his turn he charges with his 2 men@arms my archers but faill everithing.
his kotr kill 1 speamner
his lord fails all
his other men@arms faill all attacks
my turn i kill his 2 men@arms.
his kotr are killed and
my lord fails all

his turn. his archers fail all his men@arms fail all and his lord fails all.
my turn i kill his men2arms, my tiranoc charges his archers breaks them and runs over them (like the Ben-Hur movie) my lord decides to go the easy way and kills his horse. no more 2+ armour save.
