The idea for this battle came to me as a result of testing out new dice that I had recently purchased from Midlam Manor and from eBay. I had been lucky enough to get another Leopard Rider and a Cannibal in my two kickers that I bought, and I also was rather fortunate with my eBay acquisition, obtaining a trebuchet in the colour that I needed to go with my well-used Coral Elves.
After my marathon battle between the Coral Elves and Firewalkers, I thought that it might be a fun idea to combine them, using the Selumari for missile units and the Empyrea for the magic units. As both of these are light on saves, I added a sprinkling of Eldarim to help in this aspect. The addition of the Trebuchet and Heartseeker was to bring in a little spice, and to try out something new.
The Goblin army came about as a result of a chat with Joshua Cavalchini, who runs the Dragon Dice Wiki, and who is a regular Trog player.
The name ‘Moody Blues’ has been used for the army containing the Coral Elves, Firewalkers, Eldarim and Items. The ‘Trogs’, obviously, are the Goblin army.
Once again, I will be playing this slowly and will be trying to explain my tactics as we go along. I will also be making some moves which are designed simply to try out new game mechanics introduced by the new dice.
