KIILING BLOW - Flames of the Phoenix

Tweet

Share on Tumblr

A new High Elf themed incarnation of the famous Battle Reporter forum game.

The game is now in play and closed to new entrants.

We're switching from the outright slaughter fest which was the Chaos version of killing blow to a slightly more balanced High Elves version with a bit more in the way of magical defense.

To enter : just post the name of one of your favourite Warhammer Fantasy units here.

Every unit gets 15 wounds to start with then members post actions (up to once per day) to increase their unit's chance of survival. The actions are :-

1. Attack or Defend or
2. Move an Elven Blessing onto your unit or
3. Cast the spell of the day**

** Mage's Fireball Monday, Teclis Tuesday, Shadow Warrior Wednesday, Uranon's Thunderbolt Thursday, Flamespyre Friday, Skycutter Saturday (ouch !) or Swordmaster Heroic Blow Sunday (instant death !)


The rules are a lot simpler than you might think, once you've seen a round or two you'll get the idea.

The Combatants (so far: updated 5th July 2013)
----------------------------------------------------------------

1. High Elf Maiden guard (MrSeb)
2. Isabella von Carstein (Sigmar)
3. Sisters of Sigmar (chunkymon)
4. Wood Elf Glade Riders (Coinsmith1)
5. Goblin Wolf Riders (Red Orc)
6. Lothern Skycutter (Grimthorn)
7. Slaanesh's Chosen (StierWascher)
8. Kroxigors (MarshDweller)
9. Eltharion the Grim (Cornishson73)

We're looking for 20 players before battle begins.

Battle Reporter Forum reporting...

It seems people have recently been registering on the Battle Reporter forum but not receiving their activation emails. I think this is probably my fault for sending out too many updates recently - too much exciting news to share (I'm trying to break the habit) !

Anyway, if you've registered, just check your Junk / Spam folders for the activation email.

That was the Bad.

The Good... We now have no adverts on our forum, I paid to get rid of the annoying blighters ! :-)

The Ugly...(see below)  Sweaty Betty, our Female Ogre Mascot for the Killing Blow game :-)
