Happy New Year and all that Jazz....Oh look Elephants


Well I am back after a few months off, I will blame work and personal events.
 
 
But the reality is I am just very lazy :)
 
 
I have been slowly painting up my Carthaginian Army for this years Southcon event.
 
400 points with 2 generals, I will post the list later as I am still in theorymachine mode about what to take.
 
The below pictures are from the game I had last weekend, Tom was nice enough to  run his EIR army against me, it was the first time he had used two generals... I hope he had fun...well he won so that always helps :)
 
 
 
 
My Army ready for battle

 
Oh look an Elephant

 
The evil EIR ready to kill my peace loving elephants

The first turn advance towards the Romans

 
Those elephants are getting nice and close

 
Waiting for the moment to charge


The cavalry wing in action
 

 
The parts of my army I am still waiting on to arrive

Just another pic
 


YAY the cavalry wing has won its duel
 


High point of the battle for me
 


Well crap..... no elephants

Roman victory.... boo hiss
 
 
As always a great game of Impetus, Tom was so much fun to play against, even with his Chain Attack Casino dice, those things are great :)
 
 
Hope to have another post sooner rather than later, but lets be honest this blog is a tad hit and miss.
