High Elves Tournament Report - Warhammer the Old World
What a day at tournament: Battlefield Heroes IV: Orc’s Drift! I brought along my Phoenix Guard themed High Elves for a full day of Warhammer the Old World fun, and it did not disappoint.
Across three games I faced two mighty Ogre Kingdoms armies and one brutal force of Warriors of Chaos. I went 2–1 overall, picking up a win in round two and taking some tough but fun losses in the first and final rounds. More importantly, I had three fantastic co-players on the day, because for me, this hobby is never about crushing opponents, it’s about enjoying the game together.
To top things off, I was shocked (and delighted) to bring home the Best Painted Army Award for my Phoenix Guard! That was the real victory of the day.
