WMM

Based off of the popular Warmaster Fantasy rules, this version adds most armies from the Classical, Dark Ages, and Medieval periods. Each unit consists of three stands with a simple, but every effective command and control system that creates a unique level of chaos. Each army is led by a general and several leaders, plus a set number of units that must be in the army, leaving the remaining points up to the players to choose their forces. We use 10mm figures by Old Glory, Magistar Militum, Minifigs, Pendraken, and Kallistra. We find that WMA and WMM are fast playing, a lot of fun, and is certainly suitable for large groups where we occasionally use up to 2500 points per side. We currently have around a dozen armies and are looking to paint more as well as working on doing a campaign at some point.

WMM: Crusaders Win Big!

 

Saracen Center Collapses

It's been quite some time since we broke out the Crusaders and the Saracens and after this game we know why! This was a fairly large Warmaster Medieval game with about 3,000 points a side. The Saracens in particular had about 20 infantry units and a ton of cavalry, while the Crusaders had fewer units. However, the Crusader knights are something to be feared and it showed during this game. Both sides cautiously approached each other, but soon a series of charges started across the board as the Crusaders decided to forego any more maneuvering. The first charges were devastating and when the Saracens counterattacked, the die rolls were bad and it just compounded the issue. The Saracens kept pressing forward to put pressure on the Crusaders, but a second series of charges left the Saracens in dire circumstances. The Saracens did manage to inflict some serious damage to the Crusader left flank, but it was too little, too late. In the end, the Crusaders were triumphant and by a large margin. The Saracens definitely need a new army composition and some new tactics as the last few times they have not fared well!
