Hi folks,
It's exciting times at the moment within PTG as we're looking to not only bring you this blog but also we've started up a YouTube channel which we'll be posting videos onto as well!
Link to Proxy Table Gaming You Tube Channel
There will be lots of different content going up in the future and what better way to begin than a few videos where we review the 9th Age 2.0 (Beta) rulebook. Check them out, leave us some comments and let us know what you think. If you're feeling really nice you may even like to subscribe to us as well! Lucky-Sixes will send a chocolate bar to our first subscriber that officially subscribes and says something relevant about a video so get on it! (he doesn't know this yet but it will happen! - totally his fault if it doesn't happen - just saying...) (disclaimer about something relevant added... internet robots don't tend to enjoy chocolate... probably!)
We'll be looking to improve as we go so whilst these initial videos may be quite rough around the edges our journey needed to begin somewhere!
Look out for more videos soon, including our first ever video battle report as Lucky-Sixes pits his first draft Tournament Highborn Elves against my first draft Tournament (spare) Orcs & Goblins!
Kind regards,
Hyper-G

Road to Bristol: The Art of War! #2
Hi folks,
The Bristol Tournament is fast approaching so it's time to catch up with what's been happening regarding our preparations!
As Lucky-Sixes has said; whilst we may not have expectations of winning the tournament and returning home in ultimate glory we do want to do as well as possible thus set ourselves up with some practice 2.0 (Beta) battles to prepare ourselves.
At this stage it looks as though officially only Lucky-Sixes' Highborn Elves will be entering the tournament itself whilst I look to provide photo support, cheer-leading and add lots of banter to the equation but nonetheless I've been listed as a tournament back-up player therefore at any moment I could be drafted in to compete for real. As a result I've been looking to prepare my own army; in case I get a last minute place!
This leads nicely into our first battle practice as I rallied together a relatively non-proxy Orcs & Goblins army to take on the Highborns.
My list contained:
Iron Orc Warlord (General w. War Cry) - Paired Weapons (Blessed Inscriptions), Plate Armour (Tuktek's Guard), Pan Of Protection Pinchin', Potion Of Swiftness, War Boar
Iron Orc Chief (BSB) - Shield, Green Tide Banner, Talisman Of Shielding
Orc Shaman (Wizard Apprenctice - Pyromancy) - Magical Heirloom
35x Orc 'Eadbashers - Full Command, Spears, Green Tide Banner
30x Cave Goblins - 2x Mad Gits
33x Iron Orcs - Full Command, Mikinok's Totem
Orc Boar Chariot
5x Goblin Raider Wolf Riders
Skewerer
Greenhide Catapult (Git Launcher) w. Orc Overseer
Gargantula
Giant w. Giant Club
The list was built around a couple of gribblies in the Gargantula & Giant whilst my Iron Orc General on his War Boar would be roaming around solo hopefully causing some trouble. My two big infantry blocks (I'm not counting the Cave Goblins) would be my main objective grabbers and fighters whilst the Gobbos, Boar Chariot & War Machines provided some support.
With only a Wizard Apprentice (albeit with the Heirloom to get the additional spell) I was intrigued to see how I'd compete in that phase, especially against a Wizard master.
Battle would commence in an age-old Elves vs. Greenskins!
Kind regards,
Hyper-G
