Introduction On Sunday the 23rd of February, I set off for the Victory Clash in Havant, a small town near Portsmouth in the South of England. This was to be a small local Rivals tournament that my friend Harry (aka Slippy) had told me about. Preparation Up until now, in second edition, I have been playing the Emberwatch combined with Blazing Assault and Reckless Fury , but I have been wanting to try something new. For this tournament, I decided to use Cyreni's Razors with Countdown to Cataclysm  (C2C), both a deck and warband I had not really considered before. In the first edition, I played primarily with Lady Harrow's Mournflight, a quick, hard hitting but fragile warband. I like this style of play and have been looking for a warband that works in a similar way. My Razors In the week before the tournament, I went to my local club, in Redhill, to try-out/practise with the Razors. I played two games.  The first was against the Gorechosen of Dromm with Reckless Fury. I ultima...

  Of all the Powers of Chaos, the daemons of Nurgle have always been my favourite. There's something captivating about their grotesque, despair-inducing appearance contrasted with their gregarious, almost jovial personalities. I've been collecting a Nurgle daemon army for many years, amassing a large force of Plaguebearers along the way. The classic green and brown palette has been a staple of my collection, reflecting the decay and corruption at the heart of the Plague god's followers. Despite their foul nature, I've always found a strange charm in these embodiments of entropy.

Introduction Borgit's Beastgrabbaz are the fifth Gloomspite Gitz warband to enter the Underworlds. This group of gitz is searching the Underworlds for Trugg, the Troggoth King. The warband is made up of Borgit Wolf-Killa (1), who leads the Beastgrabbaz. He is accompanied by Snagz (2), Hobblin' Dregg (3), Uglug (4) (a small Troggoth), and Rigg and Sham (5), who dress as a squig and lead Uglug around. Fighter Characteristics Borgit is the leader of the Beastgrabbaz. He has a solid set of characteristics with a Move of 3, a Save of 2 Block, 3 Health, and a Bounty of 2. His attack is Range 1, 2 Hammers, and 2 Damage with Crit Grievous. Upon inspiration, Borgit goes to Move 4 and 3 Hammers on his attack. This is an interesting profile, as, apart from the Health, his characteristics are similar to Ardorn from the Emberwatch. Ardorn is a highly effective fighter, suggesting Borgit will also be—albeit less resilient but with potentially a little more punch! Next up, we have the minions...
