We used 1st/2nd Edition Warhammer (thats the 1982 & 84 versions!) that I have blended together.

We had three parties of 'adventurers' trying to rescue the head Preist from the monestry before an evil Chaos Sorceror took control... Of course, it turned out the Preist was the evil Sorceror, but they only found that out after they rescued him...  :D

Fantastic looking table, models and scenery!
 :o :o :o

Looks like a great game, and I like the twist that you have introduced in the scenario?

Where is that lovely building from?

Any more photos?
Please.............

Absolutely beautiful terrain! I love the Manorhouse buildings. I have to say, this table setup looks as good as the dioramas they have on their website. Just absolutely top notch and very inspiring stuff!

I'd love to see more details: rules, scenarios, close-ups of terrain, anything!

I am The Jealous of that table.  Manorhouse is the manufacturer?

LOVELY gaming table; very pastoral & serene...perfect setting for Evil Doers. When I saw the "La Maisontaal" I thought you were doing a refight of G.W's classic three player battle.

When the Skaven are done... We will do Maisontaal properly.

Rules were my blend of Warhammer 1st & 2nd editions, they allow a far more RPG style game. We had three randomly created 'warbands' against the GM controlled baddies. It was really an RPG Skirmish I guess!


A few more pics, didnt take many as I was busy running the bad guys and GM'ing!

I hope that doesn't mean you plan to burn half of it down!

Great stuff

More loveliness!

You have some great figures there.
Who makes the guy in the green cloak surrounded by the devils, and the Dwarf with the double-headed axe?
They are the pick of the bunch to me.
