Better than a White Dwarf batrep
Greetings,
I thought I`d include a link to a batrep from the legendary Ryogo ("R-Man") and his site. He recently played a big 3500 point battle against our mutual friend, Yamada; Imperial Fists vs. Tau. As they are both two of the top painters in Japan, I thought it might be enjoyable for everyone to check it out.

Re: Better than a White Dwarf batrep
Awesome. I love their commentary - they have a lot of fun playing and it really shows through.
(I also love Yamada's ita-sha Devilfish. Cracks me up every time.)

Re: Better than a White Dwarf batrep
Of such things dreams are made. Loving that barracuda. All the FW tau stuff is kickass, but the barracuda and the tetras are my favourite. More of that when the new Tau dex comes out please, GW!
An excellent batrep, and lovely, lovely paint jobs all round. Bravo to both of em

They do them from time to time. The full page of reports is here - game reports are the bottom 2 tables, WFB and 40K respectively.jus wrote:Haha, classic.

(Dang, they go all the way back. Here's the event report of my first appearance at the Fukuoka group, back in '01.)

Re: Better than a White Dwarf batrep
Wow, they do go back a ways! There`s some old names from the past (Horten-san, etc.). I just realized that I`ve been wargaming with those guys for 10 years!

Re: Better than a White Dwarf batrep
I guess Horten-san probably couldn't make it all the way up to Hiroshima from Kagoshima. Shame! He had some inspired conversions.Danguinius wrote:Wow, they do go back a ways!

Re: Better than a White Dwarf batrep
Yes, he did! His crazy Chaos army for WFB where EVERYTHING was converted (literally nothing was a GW model) and many of the models were actually created by him! I wonder if he is still wargaming down with the Fukuoka group...or maybe he was absorbed into the larger Kita-Kyushu group.
