Below are a collection of short stories and battle reports revolving around some of the games we have played. As I collect them from the guys in the group, I will continue to post them here. I have broken this page down into the major game systems with various stories and battle reports for each group.

Eye of Terror Mega Game
Joe Underwood wrote a few short stories before the game to give some fluff and
character to the upcoming battles. If you would like to see a few pictures
of the game, click here.
Chapters One through Seven
This last chapter was a follow up down by
another member of our group, John Ross. It is a very funny interview with a Dark Eldar Dracon
Chapter Eight
Narrative 40k Campaign
This next group of stories/Battle
Reports came from a short narrative 40k campaign one of our members ran.
It consisted of a primary assault on a Spaceport held by Chaos forces as well as
several side missions. I am still trying to collect all the stories, but
this is what I have now.

The Battle of Reddington 5948 (BFG
and 40K)
To break in his new Town home,
Alec Peters hosted a 2 day multi-game Mega-Battle On December 27th and 28th
of 2003. The battle was a refight of the famous Warhammer 40k "The Battle
of Reddington 5948" (Alec's new address).
BFG: On the first day we played a huge BFG game between Chaos and Imperial forces. Both fleets had to escort several Heavy Troop Transports to the planet of Reddington 5948. To make things really interesting, both fleets had to keep 1/3 of their points off board in the form of 3 reserve fleets. These reserve fleets would be entering the table in a totally random location. Each transport ship that made it to the planet gave that player's side a predetermined amount of extra points for the 40k game on the following day. In addition to this, whichever side won the battle (via Victory Points), received an extra troop allotment for the 40k battle (on top of any transport ships).
After a full day of vicious fighting, the Chaos forces were able to land several troop transports on the planet to support their attack on the capital city. This was achieved at the cost of the virtual destruction of the Chaos fleet. So while the Imperial players were not able to land their transport ships, they did get extra points for winning the space battle. In the end, it turned out that both sides would be playing with equal point armies the next day.
40K: The second day
witnessed the fight for the capital city of Reddington 5948, Hive Peteropolis.
The objective for this game (which was played using Codex: Cityfight rules) was
to capture 3 of the 5 objective buildings on the table. This was a great
game with a narrow Imperial victory. It literally came down to the very last round
of combat where the Space Marines were finally able to route a unit stubborn
Chaos Brethren.

Rouge Trader Tournament Fluff
For RT Tournaments, players
are asked to submit some background information about the army they are playing.
I have only played in two 40K Rouge Trader Tournaments so far. The first
with my Dark Eldar and the next with my
Necron army. Below are the short background
stories for the armies.

Battle for the Mine- Another battle
report by Joe. They didn't have a camera so he just re-created the game using MS
Excel...way too much time on his hands!

World War II
The Battle of
the Belch- This was a 15mm WWII game Joe Underwood and I played a few years
ago. The
game was played using the Command Decision III rule set. All in all a good
game. As always, Joe's unique humor shines through.
