Chaos in the Old World First Play

Managed to get a game of Chaos in the old world in after badminton this Sunday.
Rule explanations took a little longer than expected mainly due to the other 3 chaos gods being engrossed in a discussion regarding wedding dresses.
I had been delt Khorne so combat and slaughter were on my agenda. Chloe was Tzeench, Jude Nurge and appropriately Sarah got the pervy god Slaneesh.

The game started with the old world deck turning up witch hunters, poping up a rash of heros in the middle regions. The first couple of turns everyone was quite aimless not entirely clear on a strategy. Nurgle set up in the south west, Slaneesh South East, while Chloe set about corrupting the empire and surrounding regions, I spread myself thin looking for a fight.

A couple of turns in, it started to click for Chloe and Sarah and they were adroitly moving their threat wheels on, whilst scoring some good points dominating reigons. I had started to click my threat wheel around at a good rate killing all over the board, but the witch hunters were very bussy persecuting my demons, diminishing my fighting force each turn. Jude had moved North piling a huge corrupting horde into Tilea.

End Game, this had become a 3 horse race, Sarah and I needed 1 more turn to finish our wheels but Chloe beat us all to the punch by scooping some major points by ruining Empire and then Britonia. She then piled all available cultists into Kislev. The fall of Kislev was enough to boost her past the 50 point mark for the win.

All said they enjoyed the game and I look forward to getting is on the table again soon.
