ASOBH Spartans invade Egypt
«
on:
November 09, 2019, 07:39:12 PM »
So, after a few years in the making and planing, painting and building, my friend Matthias and I started our small mythical ASOBH campaign.
We played 2 games to get back into the rules.
I have a small Spartan warband of 300pts. So far without the mythical bits.
Matthias had an Egyptian warband with a giant scorpion.
We used his terrain, which is really lovely by the way, as I am still building mine.
1st game. Contact amongst the columns.
The warbands set up....

The brave Spartans move forward to engage the Scorpion...
Some appalling activation dice on both sides, unfortunately, my mounted chief still gets knocked form his horse.
It all hangs in the balance

Unfortunately the gods are not smiling on me. My Hoplites take a beating from the scorpion and from some strange man-vulture like creature wielding an enormous two handed sword. At last my chief succumbs....and my 2 remaining men run for it, leaving the field to the Egyptians.

In answer to some questions regarding the terrain.
All the terrain belongs to and was made by Matthias but we did talk about it so I am able to give a few answers.
The Egyptian buildings and columns were made using the Hirst Arts moulds.
The small broken statue bits are all from Green Stuff world.
I don't know where he got the palm trees, but I do know he had to do a fair bit of work to spruce them up.
The gaming mat is also home-made.

The 2nd game. Trouble at the Temple.
My forces:
Mounted Chief Q3 C4
5 x Hoplites Q3 C3
2 x Light Bowmen Q3 C2
Matthias's Force:
1 x Priest/Summoner
1 x giant Scorpion
1 x Bowman
1 x Axeman
1 x Spearman
2 x Swordsmen
I think all his troops were Q3 C3 except the Priest who was C1. His Priest spent almost the whole game summoning the strange bird-men warriors. Nasty pieces of work.

Yeah, it was a real pleasure to play on such great terrain. ASOBH is really one of my favourite games.

My Spartans went first and after an unlucky activation roll by the Egyptians I was able to activate again. The Hoplites advanced, trying not so successfully to form a solid front, while my chief and the bowmen lagged behind.

Great stuff, thanks for sharing. I'm looking to eventually do some Roman horror/fantasy with ASOBH, essentially the Broken Legions (Osprey ruleset) setting but with rules I'm comfortable with.
