Our very own SeanMike was lucky enough to hit the Baltimore Games Day event that Games Workshop put on. I'm jealous!

But he's brought us all along on his adventure with his Games Day writeup so we can enjoy it almost like hearing crazy Paul Barnet in person!

The combat ran out fast and furious. More than once I was surrounded by orcs. There IS collision detection in WAR, so when surrounded – well, you're screwed. I got pounded into the ground.
