Have you tried the new Warhammer 40k Game: Cavalry Engagement?

[Lathe Biosas]

The new White Dwarf (#517) has rules for a new game mode: Cavalry Engagement.

 

You have 500 points to spend and every unit must have the MOUNTED Keyword.

 

You can only use the Stratagems and Enhancements from the article, and if your Codex doesn't include a MOUNTED Character, you are not required to take one. You will select a model to be your WARLORD. 

 

When it comes to Enhancements you can select any units in your army, they don't need to be characters.

There are 3 missions listed, but I haven't read them yet.

 

This actually looks like fun and might encourage me to expand my armies.

 

What do you think?

Thanks for highlighting this.  I had flipped through this, the "Scenery Showcase" issue just this past weekend, and didn't notice that.

 

Oh man.  A lot of people bought the Krieg set and people like the Mechanicus horsies and one of the nice guys plays GSC, this should be A Thing.

This is cool looking. My Necron Lokhust models add up to 480, so presumably I could add an enhancement or two.

 

I'll have a look at my lgs to see if issue 517 is in stock, though I haven't had luck with that in the past. Otherwise I'm at the mercy of people posting pictures of the relevant pages or GW putting the rules out in their app. Even with that I'm hard pressed to get anyone around me to play anything but matched play 2k games but a guy can hope.

 

I hear hope works well in the grimdark future

Can I take pictures of the pages and post them for others to see, or is that verboten here?

I'm not entirely sure really. There have been many images shared across the board that are similar in nature, but the line is somewhat blurry to me.

 

I'd gladly accept some pics in a message if you're willing to share. I briefly saw a video of someone flipping through the pages but no content was truly viewable.
