4th Annual Swap Day: 2015 a success

Sunday saw our 4th annual swop day.

 Recent developments in the gaming community (GW killing off the Warhammer World and Gamers flocking to KoW) has impacted quite severely on the sale and swopping of gaming bits, with attendance and numbers of traders down significantly from last year.

I don't think anyone sold a complete Warhammer army. This is in start contrast to previous years where whole armies sold at the drop of a hat, and punters almost got to fisticuffs over useful or choice bits. X-Wing saw some trade, as did FoW, and OK, I bought some GW stuff for conversion

Never the less brisk trade took place, and everyone went home happy. Either with cash in pocket or with items in hand!

So few traders came on the day that a third of the hall could be could be used for gaming a 40 K tournament.

I for one went home happy with a sale of GW cases paying for some great Olley's Army Scrunt Miniatures off Jayden. I have coveted these for some time.

Also found a Norman Army in 28mm, which prompted me to go home and buy the SAGA rulebooks off Gripping Beast with the unspent $$ burning a hole in pocket. And some Vikings off Magic Ape while I was at it. Anyone keen for a game of SAGA ?  (Coming to the KWC near you soon)

KWC goes to the New Zealand Team Championships 2013 ( Warhammer Fantasy)

KWC's Kapiti Krushers  goes to the New Zealand Team Championships 2013 

(Warhammer Fantasy Battles)

The Kapiti Wargames Club fielded a team called the Kapiti Krushers at Saturday and Sunday's New Zealand Warhammer Fantasy Battles Team Championships, held and Ngaio Town Hall, in Wellington

Unpacking the armies

The first round of action begins

The Kapiti Krushers team consisted of 

Hamish (Captain, Warriors of Chaos) - centre

Sam (Daemons of Chaos) - right

Nick (Orcs and Goblins) - back

Herman (Dark Elves) - right

The tournament took place over 2 days, with 40 players in 10 teams, each playing 6 rounds in total.

WoC vs Lizardmen

Nick taking on  Chaos Daemons

Sam's Bloodletters on the rampage

 Second Round: Team Omen

Nick facing the Empire

Sam taking on High Elves

Hamish dealing with a Vampiric incursion. Excellent support for the team provided by Fern throughout the two days, even painting some Skaven, to boot...

Some armies were absolute works of art...

Peter Dunn's Ogres on the march

Chaos Dwarfs dominating a group of Harpies. Even the Dark Elf shades from the adjoining table have something to say...

Nick taking on the Empire again, this time from the Capital Crusaders, an Aussie team

The spoils

The Victors: The Von Trapp Family (Also known as the Dunns)

A mountain of terrain to be put away after the games

This was my first tournament, which I approached with just a bit of trepidation, but I found all the opponents I came up against accepting of my lack of tournament experience and ignorance of some of the finer niceties of the 8th edition rules. Took out a win against Lizardmen, Two draws (Brettonia and Dark Elves) on my first outing

We came in 8th overall, which was a little disappointing for some, but I am generally quite satisfied with our performance (being the newbie)

Still some bragging rights in that: I suppose KWC's Kapiti Krushers are now Ranked no 8 team in NZ until next year.

Not bad for a start, I think... And…we beat the Aussies (yay!)
