So here's my first try at posting a battle report. Last week my Witch Hunters faced Thanquol's Skaven in a simple scenario: first warband that routs loses.

Place where it all happened: HQ Gaming Club Sint-Niklaas (Belgium)

The table:

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(1)

Another view on the table:

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(3)

And another one:

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(4)

The Witch Hunters set out to lay an ambush:

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(2)

The main strike force, being covered by a Halfling sniper:

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(5)

They look impressive and feel powerfull, backed up by the Ogre:

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(7)

But they are hopelessly outmanouvred by the much faster Skaven:

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(6)

The critical point in the game: the Skaven Assassin takes cover to hide from the rain of crossbow bolts being pointed at him. This leaves the Rat Ogre without his leadership and the big bad thing refuses to move forward:

edit: picture refuses to appear, no idea why

The Witch Hunter's crossbows make short work of the Rat Ogre:

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(10)

Victory !!

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(11)

Here you go. Hope you enjoyed it Cool

Since you asked so nicely...

Rat Ogre in all it's glory:

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(12)

Skaven storming the Witch Hunter's defense line, Witch Hunters around the corner making sure they'll have the initiative:

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(13)

Warning! Non painted material. No wonder they lost Razz

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(14)

The dice with the '1' shows where the Assassin was standing before my Warhound bit away his last wound:

Witch Hunters vs Skaven Mordheim%20(15)

Tempted as I am to say "yes", it seems the opposite is true. It's been my experience that the new minis & units of minis tend to have bloody introductions to the games table. Characters with cool names also seem to have early, tragic, & generally messy deaths. Suspect

I can second Nala's sentiments there: I have lost many a brave young up-and-comer to untimely deaths, despite my hopes of them achieving uber-power status!
