noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Wed, 24 Sep 2014 09:00:00 +0000

Current edition army books only filter, 5,000 searchable battles archive, double batrep notes and more exclusive member accolades.

Hi folks, I've been tweaking the database and current pages in the run up to WFBattles.com version 2 which I'm working on now.

by Myles David of LilLegend Studio

Recent enhancements have been...

a filter to the ArmiesVs page which shows the stats for only the current army book editions.

now you can add up to 3,000 characters to your battle notes (increased from 1,500).

you can now search all of the existing battles (up to 5,000), view them and rate them to keep a track of which batreps you've read and watched - and to earn prestige points.

a new button to show the best rated battles that you haven't already rated yourself.

the Member Accolades page has been tweaked to make the achievements tougher to attain (see the in-page "key").

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Fri, 13 Jun 2014 19:32:00 +0000

Looking for good Fantasy Battle Reports ?

LillLegend Studio

Look no further. See the best rated battles on WFBattles.com (save it to your favourites). There are over 1,000 links to written and YouTube batreps (click "R" to view a written Batrep or "V" to watch a YouTube video).

If you join WFBattles you can rate the reports which enables you to keep a track of which ones you've already read or watched.

By joining you'll be helping us to create a community database of player opinions, battles and army stats.

What you can do on WFBattles.com...

You can keep a track of your own battles and download the details whenever you want, create a league for your gaming friends, see yourself ranked against your other players, get your batreps rated, rate other gamer's batreps to earn prestige or even join our 5 forces campaign.

It's FREE, I developed it for fun - not money.

For existing members....

I've added a new button to the Battles page:-

"see best battles you haven't rated yet" (see pic below).

This sorts the Battles table by highest rated battle to lowest rated and shows only those battles you have not seen before (ie. you haven't awarded it a star rating). You can see all battles again by clicking the same button or reloading the page or clicking the "Reset Filters" button".

Here's what it looks like (before the button is clicked).... notice the Green Ticks (which show you've already rated a batrep).

After it's clicked...notice that the green ticks are gone (ie. those batreps you've already rated) and that the battles are sorted in best to worst batrep order ("Avg" column)

After you've clicked the button you'll see the next best batreps that you have not rated yet.

please click this "+" icon to rate a battle from 1 to 10 stars, like so...

I've also added a "Best Rated" link to every page beneath the banner to encourage members to check out the best batreps and rate them.

If you enjoy reading or watching a battle please be kind enough to rate it on the Battles page and also leave a comment on the forum or YouTube channel where you saw the report.

Warhammer Fantasy Stats from 2,400 Battles and hundreds of gamers

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Fri, 11 Apr 2014 16:26:00 +0000

WHFB statistics based on over 2,400 Warhammer Fantasy battles, with nearly 600 evidenced by battle reports (over 500 of which have links to reports with photos and maps or YouTube videos).

Slayer by Myles David of LilLegend Studio

WFBattles.com snapshot:-

I've just resumed development work on WFBattles.com and will soon be uploading some new features.

In the meantime, I thought I'd delve into the database a bit to see what kind of interesting snippets I could come up with (based on battles submitted and the member polls). At the time of writing we have...

964 members
2448 Fantasy Battles
almost 200 Batrep writers / YouTubers

In terms of the overall picture:-

Daemons of Chaos are now top of the Warhammer Fantasy league in win % in all games and those evidenced by battle reports. Warriors of Chaos come a close second with Ogre kingdoms and Dark Elves snapping at their heels. Warriors, Ogres and Dark Elves have all previously enjoyed time at the top.

Poor old Tomb Kings are well and truly stuck to the bottom of the all battles table and the other armies are all within 5% points of each other in the middle of the pack.

An Army by Army round up (especially useful, I think, for Warhammer Beginners) and a decent discussion starter for forums, blogs and Warhammer social media sites...

Beastmen

The least used or battled against of all the armies. Beastmen have most success with monstrous infantry (except for Ogre Kingdoms of course!) so presumably, Minotaurs are the name of the game. Beastmen have a good record against High Elves and Dwarfs (and Tomb Kings - which army doesn't!) but they most enjoy fighting The Empire. The Beasts are more reliant on any other army on movement (yes, they even just about top Bretonnians), it's been the most influential of all the phases in Beastmen battles. When it comes to luck, Beastmen don't have a lot of it but it has helped them out most in scraps with Orcs & Goblins. This army has the worst magic defence according to our voters.

Bretonnia

Voted the army with the best movement / maneuverability in the game and the 3rd best armoured. Bretonnians have a good track record against Tomb Kings, Lizardmen and Beastmen, they also have a surprisingly high draw rate against Orcs and Goblins (for reasons unknown!). Wood Elves and Vampire Counts are the Brets most challenging enemies, maybe because of all the forests and the tar pits hampering movement and preventing the Brets from defeating their opponent on the charge turn. Bretonnian players rely most on their core units and Trebuchets have been marginally more decisive in battle than Pegasus Knights.

Daemons of Chaos

The most successful army (except in tournaments where Dark Elves take the crown). Daemons also have the least proportion of drawn battles (I guess that Daemons don't "do" draws, they win or vanish back into the Realms of Chaos !) and have the most fun, at least, when they play against Wood Elves. Daemons are the least wanted by other army players, possibly because of their models which are voted 3rd worst across the whole army range. This army is the 2nd most used in large 3,000+ pts battles (Dwarfs come top). A third of all Daemon battle reporters select the custom lord, presumably a Daemon prince as their best unit - more than any other army using lord level characters.

Dark Elves

Most used in 2,000 pt battles with best overall record but high loss record against High Elves although it doesn't look so bad when you take the high % of draws into account. High Elves are the most common opponent in tournaments. Despite dominance in shooting, magic is over twice as influential on the battlefield than ranged weapons. Dark Elves are really keen on infantry as a troop type, only Dwarfs use more infantry but then the Dwarf army is a lot more restricted in it's troop types than just about any other army.

Dwarfs

The most blood thirsty army in the war against Chaos and the non-aligned races. Dwarfs spill more of Warriors of Chaos blood than anybody else. Dwarfs are the most loved army and yet the miniatures are the least popular across the Warhammer world, which brings into question GW's official stance that... "it's all about the models". It seems that for Dwarfs that it's more likely to be "all about the battles!" The Dwarf army has been voted as having the best magic defence and best ranged offence. Special Units are far more important in battle for Dwarfs than all the other armies and with Ironbreakers, Irondrakes, Hammerers, Slayers and some war machines is it any wonder ?! , Only high Elves come close (presumably thanks to White Lions, Swordmasters and Phoenix Guard).

High Elves

The most painted army and by far the most common foe of the other armies, only Beastmen, Dwarfs and Warriors of Chaos fight other armies more often - which I guess means that people get to see more painted High Elf armies on the tabletop than any other. Elves have the least luck and, indeed, require the least luck to win. High Elves are the most featured in battles with full battle report links. Along with the Empire, High Elves have the most evenly distributed success across the movement, magic, shooting and combat phases

Lizardmen

The least painted army (must be the size of those dinos!) but it doesn't seem to affect their performance because they are one of the most balanced armies in terms of wins, draws and losses (45%, 10%, 45%) and rank 6th. Lizardmen are more likely than any other army to choose Custom Hero as their best unit and come second only to Warriors of Chaos in naming Monsters as their best troop type (it's a case of Troglodon, Carnosaur and Stegadon vs Mutalith, Chimera and Slaughterbrute - which would you choose ?). Lizardmen are voted the most balanced in magic offence and defence.

Ogre Kingdoms

Ranked first in the "Professional Mercenaries category, that is, Most fun to play (combined with) requiring the least luck to win. Ogres are the most wanted army by other army owners. Monstrous cavalry, which must be Mournfang are more influential than any other army's monstrous cavalry, only The Empire's Demigryphs come close. Ogres are surprisingly unimpressed by the impact that their relatively high movement has on games, only Skaven rate movement lower. Ogre players don't seem to rate monsters very highly in the outcome of a battle despite having access to the Thundertusk, Stonehorn and a giant.

Orcs and Goblins

O&G is the most collected of all the armies and they are the "luckiest winners", I think we all know that you need a little luck with the greenskins, what with their unpredictability. This army rates magic, movement and shooting almost as important as one another in battle but by far the most important phase remains combat (only Warriors of Chaos, Daemons, Ogre Kingdoms and Beastmen rank combat more highly). The moral of this story, don't site around chatting with your doom diver crew over some stolen Bugman's XXXX, you need to get stuck in! Orcs and Goblins are one of only 3 armies (along with Beastmen and Tomb Kings) that does not feature in the top 5 best performing in movement, magic, shooting or combat.

Skaven

For some reason Skaven are by far the most Loathed army overall (in fact the single most loathed army by owners of 9 other races!) Skaven is the only race other than Wood Elves to count shooting as it's best turn phase and the only army to count Rare Units as it's most important unit type (rated twice as important as most other armies). So, if you're facing Skaven expect to face a lot of Doomwheels, Hellpit Abominations and Warp Lightning Cannons or catapults. Skaven were voted as having the highest magic offence (The Dreaded 13th possibly ?)

The Empire

The master of stalemates, The Empire has the most drawn battles (vs Dwarfs) and the most drawn battles overall (joint 1st alongside Orcs and Goblins). The most balanced in troop type composition of all the armies but they don't rate their custom lords highly. Only Dark Elves are equally unimpressed by their Lord's performance in comparison with other units. Empire armies are similarly unimpressed by their custom heroes, it seems they put their faith mostly in core and special units. They also favour war machines above all other armies except for Dwarfs and Skaven. The Empire is the most owned army by those who have more than two armies in their collection (Beastmen, Daemons, Vampire and Wood Elf players are most likely to also own Empire)

Tomb Kings

Ranked last in the "Professional Mercenaries category that is... Least fun to play and requiring the most luck to win or draw. The only army to count chariots as it's most important Troop Type. Tomb Kings are more reliant than any other army (except for Vampires) on their special Lord level characters to win them battles and they also rely on magic and monstrous beasts (ie Tomb Scorpions) more than any other army (except for Daemons). Tomb Kings are by far the least feared of all the armies by their foes. Amazingly, they have more success with chariots than either infantry or monsters! Last but not least, Tomb Kings are firmly rooted to the bottom of the all battles league table. The stats are telling me... they need an infantry upgrade (only Brets and Ogres have less success with their infantry and that's because we're talking about archers / men-at-arms and gnoblars! [note: Ogres count as Monstrous Infantry])

Vampire Counts

Voted best army book and worst ranged offence (no surprise there). Vampires are great against Wood Elves, Beastmen and Bretonnia (but here's the surprise... they win against Warriors of Chaos 52% of the time and win or draw 61% !!!) Vampire Counts like using Special Characters more than any other army and they much prefer hero characters over all the other armies (Konrad perhaps ?) Vampires are the second most reliant on their magic phase (after Tomb Kings) and the impact on a battle of their movement and shooting (Banshees and Terrorgheists) is rated 2nd worst of all the armies. Only Warriors of Chaos rate their combined movement and shooting as less influential and that's because they're too busy lopping of heads in close combat to bother with either.

Warriors of Chaos

By far the most feared army. One of only 4 armies (including Daemons of Chaos) to count Customised Lord as it's most important unit (Daemon Prince presumably!) Voted best miniatures, strongest army and best combat offence and defence and one of the best army books - what's not to like !?. Warriors of Chaos players are extremely happy with the contribution of close combat to battle performance, only Daemons and Ogre Kingdoms come close (and Beastmen but, that's because their magic and shooting rating are so low!). Warriors of Chaos are the most likely to rate Monsters as the best unit in their army. Presumably this is the combined effect of having a Chimera and Daemon Prince.

Wood Elves

Count shooting as their best turn phase. Worst book according to the polls and weakest army, I'm assuming that the age of the army book has a lot to do with this! Poor old woodies have also been voted the worst in combat offence and defence. I'm afraid to say that when it comes to the polls there are not too many positive points to make except that they rate 2nd in movement (after Bretonnia). The poor down trodden Wood Elf player is also the most likely to own another army. On the bright side, Wood Elf players do seem to punch above their weight, performing better than both Tomb kings and Orcs and Goblins in the all battles table and even better in the battles evidenced with full battle reports. So, it seems that those who have stuck with Wood Elves and mastered them are getting their just rewards. It's also notable that they perform significantly better in larger points value games (which I personally find surprising).

In my next post I'll detail the new features I'm working on, which are mainly the items listed in the WIP pane of the WFBattles.com home page plus an army by army comparison table for Best units, Troop Types and Phases that I have used to help me collate the above.

The army comparison page will use the same data as the Army Selection page but will show all the armies side by side rather than on separate pie charts and will also have the same filters and sorts that are available on the Army vs Army / Battle Count page.

Please join the site and help me to create the most informative Warhammer Fantasy database this side of the Chaos Wastes. I'm just developing WFBattles.com for fun so it will never cost you anything other than the minute or two it takes to post a battle or vote on a poll.

Army Success by Battle Points Value

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Tue, 25 Mar 2014 18:58:00 +0000

Warhammer Fantasy Battles - Army Performance by Battle Size (pts value)

My Warhammer Fantasy database now caters for army pts value in the Army vs Army analysis. It's something I added a couple of weeks ago but forgot to blog about.

You can now filter on the Armies Vs, All Armies Matrix and the Army Battle Count pages to see who fights each other most and which armies are most successful against which others by battle points value.

The images should explain the rest (when visiting the page just click "+ Expand Key" for an explanation of each table/matrix)...

Warhammer Fantasy Army - Enemies

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Thu, 27 Feb 2014 19:38:00 +0000

I've added a new section to Sigmar's Warhammer Fantasy Battles ArmiesVs page - Battle Count

The new section shows which armies most regularly face each other on the Fantasy battlefield*.

* The data all comes from the battles added by WFBattles.com members and can be filtered by all battles / tournament / friendly and by those supported by a full battle report link or extensive batrep notes (over 1,000 characters).

The numbers provide a few insights into the data being used across the rest of the site and highlights the intensity of the army match ups. Those battles which occur on average 2 times more than you would expect (based on total battles recorded) are rated as "Total War", 1.4 times are rated "Carnage" and 1.2 times are rated "Onslaught".

Currently, Dwarfs vs Warriors of Chaos and High Elves vs Warriors of Chaos are the most common tabletop scraps. Beastmen and Tomb Kings are used the least vs most enemies.

The new matrix also shows the distribution of battle reporters, some armies are a lot better supported by battle reports. Note that if the battle reporter is a particularly good (or under-performing) this could skew the overall numbers, especially with tournaments which are reported a lot less than friendlies (594 battles and 1365 battles respectively).

Hopefully, as we get more members and batreps into the database the numbers will get more and more accurate.

I've said this many times but here I go again... Please feel free to join and contribute to our community database, it's FREE and there are no catches and it's great for keeping a track of your battles !

Warhammer Fantasy Battles Update - Professional Mercenaries & Fun Foes

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Fri, 21 Feb 2014 14:40:00 +0000

The Battlefields page now includes a section named Professional Mercenaries & Fun Foes

The new section found in the last accordion pane shows which member armies had the most fun and demonstrated the most skill* in defeating or drawing with their enemies.

The list is ordered in descending order so the 1st Army (currently Ogres) had the most fun and was the most skillful of all the armies. The enemy is the army which the members showed most skill and had most fun against (eg. Ogres had the most fun and showed the most skill against High Elves).

I added the section for a bit of fun and to get my coding brain working again. You might find it useful in choosing which armies collect and which to battle against if you have the option of different opponents.

Please feel free to post any comments or suggestions in the WFBattles.com forum thread.

Warhammer Tournament Rankings now on WFBattles.com

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Thu, 20 Feb 2014 17:00:00 +0000

Sigmar's Warhammer Fantasy Battles - member's roster rankings now includes a tournament / friendly / all games filter

I'm pleased to report that I think I will now be able to find some time to get back to development work on www.WFBattles.com.

It's been a few weeks so I thought I'd start with a couple of easy enhancements. First up is a filter for members to view their win % rank for all games (the default) or by friendly or tournament (see the green ellipse in the image below).

You can continue to see all battles or filter out those without batrep links or extensive notes and don't forget to use the "Show member's profile..." and "Show army stats..." to check out individual members and their performance by army.

As before, members without a win or with a 100% win record are not ranked.

PS. I'll be sprucing the site up with some cool new miniature pics over the next few days.

New 8th Ed Dwarfs Warhammer Fantasy

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Sun, 09 Feb 2014 11:58:00 +0000

Just in case you missed the news, because Dwarfs are easily overlooked ;-), the stunties are back with an 8th edition WFB army book update !

It's been a long wait but then Dwarfs are fairly patient folk - which is just as well because I think it's been 9 years! Games Workshop were probably worried about all the grudges that were building up and in the interests of avoiding an axe through their corporate helmet they have decided to release a new Dwarf army book and a few new miniatures.

Going with their big is better theme of recent years, the Dwarfs are now getting Gyrobombers which deploy bouncing bombs no less and a new Gyrocopter model. There's a new character Grimm Burloksson and a new Runelord too.

Presumably, if GW follow recent practice, there will also be a second wave of models coming to ensure you can spread your purchases over more than one pay day - gulp! (edit: these are the second wave of models, I missed the first lot because I wasn't paying attention - they can all now be found on the GW website) The miniatures and book are on pre-order now so, presumably, will be on the shelves in 2 or 3 weeks.

WHFB Tournament Army Performance

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Sat, 21 Dec 2013 17:36:00 +0000

You can now select All Battles, Friendlies or Tournaments on the Warhammer Fantasy Battles - Army League tables.

by IronHalo.net more Bretonnia...

I've added a drop down to the "ArmiesVs" page (see below) because we have quite a lot of battles now (over 1,000 friendlies and 370+ tourney games).

I thought some people might be interested in which are the strongest performing tournament armies and, some other people, might like to filter out veteran tournament player battles.

I will have some other much larger updates to report soon;

a new menu system which is looking very cool but no quite finished
and a very detailed members page for any visitor to check out member stats, ranks, prestige etc.

WFB Battle Statistics (from ArmiesVs and Reckoning Pages)

Dark Elves have supplanted Warriors of Chaos as the most successful army
Beastmen replace Orcs & Goblins at the foot of the table
Core and Special units are the most influential on the battlefield
Infantry followed by cavalry are by far the most important troop types
Magic and shooting are equally important but neither are nearly as important as combat
Tomb Kings players are the luckiest, Warriors of Chaos have the most fun while High Elves roll the worst dice and poor old Woodies are the gloomiest ! - I wonder why ? ;-)
High Elves are the most common foe, surprisingly, they are the most successful against Dark Elves but unsurprisingly they are beaten most by Warriors of Chaos
Dwarfs, Skaven and Wood Elves count shooting as their most important phase

click image to see the page

WFB Member Opinions (from Reckoning Pages and WFB Member Polls)

Bretonnia is the best in tournaments (lots of expert devotees I guess), Beastmen remain the worst
Order of Law is still winning the current fantasy campaign, now followed by the Chaos Pact
Skaven, Warriors of Chaos have the most entries in the book of Grudges (most loathed armies)
Few players loathe Lizardmen or Tomb Kings - I guess one is neutral and the other crumbles :-)
Lizardmen have been replaced by Dark Elves as the most wanted army
Skaven, Wood Elves and Daemons of Chaos are the least wanted armies
Warriors of Chaos is the most worshipped army and also the most feared
Hardly anybody fears Tomb Kings!
Vampire Counts remains the best army book, Orcs and Goblins are the most collected
Warriors of Chaos and Skaven are still believed to be the strongest armies, and poor old Wood Elves and Beastmen the still believed to be by far the weakest :-(
High Elves is still the most painted, Skaven still the least so (lots of slaves!)

click image to see the page

Battlefields (aggregated from Add Battle page)

The war is swinging once more in favour of the Forces of Destruction in the eternal war (in the last update the Forces of Order had the upper hand, by some margin)
Dwarfs and Orcs and Goblins continue to be the most bitter rivals and have spilled the most of each other's blood on the battlefield. High Elves and Warriors of Chaos are the next bitterest of foes
The most enjoyable battles have been fought between Beastmen and Skaven, Dwarfs and Wood Elves and an internecine kindred Orcs and Goblins war - no surprise there :-)
The luckiest winners have been Orcs and Goblins vs Daemons, Tomb Kings vs Orcs and Goblins and Daemons vs Lizardmen (Orcs and Goblins seem to rely quite a bit on luck which cuts both ways)

click image to see the page

Army Strengths & Weaknesses (from Member's Army Powers polls page)

Daemons of Chaos, Dwarfs, Dark Elves, High Elves, Lizardmen and Warriors of Chaos all feature prominently in the top 5 armies across all categories.
Warriors not only have the best combat offence but also the best defence - gulp!

Popular Warhammer Fantasy Armies

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Fri, 22 Nov 2013 12:10:00 +0000

I've added a section to WFBattles.com showing commonly collected WFB army combos.

The new table also shows which other armies each collector most wants, loves, loathes and fears and which other armies they are likely to have painted (use the dropdown box to select the info you want to see).

by LoserStudio.blogspot.co.uk

To read the table...

...take the army on the left, look across and the number you see in each column represents the % of members who collect the left hand army who also collect the army in that column.

As an example, in the table below 37% of Beastmen collectors also own a Br (Bretonnian) army.

For further examples click the "show explanation +" icon on the page. (high numbers are highlighted in red low number are lowlighted in silver)

A couple of interesting things I found on the "Owned" armies; Wood Elf generals seem to be the most frequent collectors of other armies, followed by Beastmen commanders. I reckon that's further evidence that both armies are underwhelming on the battlefield as players opt to collect other armies more often than other army collectors. Having said that, with regards to Beastmen it could be that it used to be packaged up somewhat with other Chaos armies and some units are interchangeable with the newer Chaos forces (such as the WoC warhounds, spawn, giants and the chariots which bear some resemblance).

It also looks like a lot of players can call upon their Orcs & Goblins and The Empire to fight their battles as they are the most commonly owned armies. It seems that I'm not the only one who started Warhammer with a bunch of frightened gobbos spearheading my charge into stolid and (in those days) completely implacable and stoic Dwarf wall of steel :-(

Best Fantasy Battles & Luckiest Winners

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Fri, 15 Nov 2013 12:09:00 +0000

"Merry Slaughter" (most enjoyable Warhammer battles) and "Chosen of the Dice Gods" (luckiest winners) added to the Battlefields page

The new sections take the fun and luck ratings from the add Battle page.

Merry Slaughter

...shows the most enjoyable enemy army "match up" for each race*
* All armies are then ranked in order of "fun". So if, for example, "Warriors of Chaos vs Dark Elves" is at the top of the list it means that the match up is the most fun enemy to play against for Warriors of Chaos and the overall most fun of all the battles added.

Chosen of the Dice Gods

...works in exactly the same way as Merry Slaughter except it uses the luck rating from the add Battle page and only winning battles are taken into account.

As it happens, Warriors of Chaos vs Dark Elves is currently top of the most enjoyable battles which, presumably, is due to all the blood that is spilled by that notoriously blood thirsty lot! It's also a result of those two armies being the most successful armies which is likely to result in the players finding the battles more fun. Interestingly though, Orcs and Goblins and Tomb Kings are also in the top 3 and they are way down the list when it comes to win % (see ArmiesVs page) so maybe O&G and TK players are simply a happy warmongering bunch :-)

Unsurprisingly, Vamps, Wood Elves and Tomb Kings are in the top 5 luckiest winners, I suspect they rely more than most on the blessing of the Dice Gods ;-)

Join Warhammer Fantasy Battles, it's FREE!

Note: the armies are likely to move around quite a lot in both the Merry Slaughter and Chosen of the Gods tables. This is because there are 225 combinations of battles so on average armies have only faced one another just over 4 times at the present. Some armies face one another more than others, High Elves and Warriors of Chaos for instance fight more frequently than Tomb Kings and Beastmen. Therefore a Beastmen or Tomb King game given a high Luck or Fun rating will have a disproportionate effect on the table averages until more battles have been posted.

WHFB Army Strengths & Weaknesses Opinion Poll

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Fri, 08 Nov 2013 16:14:00 +0000

A Poll has been added to Warhammer Fantasy Battles (WFBattles.com) to find the strongest and weakest characteristics of each Warhammer Fantasy Army.

Cauldron of Blood by
www.LoserStudio.blogspot.com

It's a question that is frequently asked by new players and debated by experienced gamers across all the Warhammer forums so I thought I'd add a poll to WFBattles in an attempt to ascertain a definitive answer.

The poll enables members to rate all the armies from 1 to 10 for the following capabilities:-

Maneuverability
Magic Offence
Magic Defence
Ranged Offence
Combat Offence and
Combat Defence

Members will find the poll in the "Profile" section (see link in the top right when you log in).

It's FREE to join WFBattles and always will be!
(I developed it for fun not money)

You can change your opinion whenever you like and even leave an army unrated (if for example, you've never played against it or seen the army book).

Data is collated twice per day and displayed in the public Polls section (under "Army Power Ratings").

I've written some general guidance notes that members can take into account when rating armies if they like. The same notes can also be read by non-members in the "Notes" section.

Here are some screenshots...

The default page showing the top 3 armies (under the "Polls" > "Army Power Ratings" tab)...

Notes page - showing what the members might have taken into account when rating the armies...

Movement & Magic ratings for all armies...

Ranged Offence & Combat ratings for all armies...

WFB Battle Statistics (from ArmiesVs and Reckoning Pages)

Warriors of Chaos are the most successful army, followed by Dark Elves and Ogres
Orcs and Goblins and Beastmen prop up the foot of the table
Special units are the most influential on the battlefield, followed by Core and then Custom Lords
Infantry are by far the most important troop type (cavalry are way behind in 2nd place)
Magic just trumps shooting as the most influential phase but neither are as important as combat
Vampire Counts players are the luckiest, Bretonnians have the most fun while Skaven roll the worst dice and are also the gloomiest ! - possibly due to those dice rolls :-)
High Elves are the most common foe, they most are most successful against Orcs and Goblins and are beaten most by Warriors of Chaos
The Dwarfs are the only race that count shooting as their most important phase
The Forces of Order have usurped Foces of Destruction in the eternal war (if the Forces of Destruction and Non-aligned armies joined a coalition then the war swing in their favour)
Dwarfs and Orcs and Goblins are the most bitter rivals
Ogre Kingdoms are the best in tournaments, Woodies have been replaced by Beastmen as the worst
Order of Law is winning the current fantasy campaign, followed by Rebel Realms & Mercenaries

WFB Member Opinions (from Reckoning Pages and WFB Member Polls)

Skaven, Warriors of Chaos and Dark Elves still have the most entries in the book of Grudges
Lizardmen and Bretonnia are still by far the least resented by other players
Lizardmen are the most wanted army closely followed by Ogre Kingdoms
Skaven and Daemons of Chaos are the least wanted armies
Dwarfs have been replaced by Warriors of Chaos as the most worshipped army
Warriors of Chaos is by far the most feared army, while hardly anybody fears Tomb Kings
Vampire Counts is the best army book, Orcs and Goblins are the most collected
Warriors of Chaos and Skaven are believed to be the strongest armies, and poor old Wood Elves and Beastmen the still believed to be the weakest :-(
High Elves is the most painted army, Skaven the least so (not surprising given all those slaves!)

WFBattles - Battle Notes page now shows carriage returns (new lines)

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Mon, 21 Oct 2013 16:04:00 +0000

The Battles, Campaign Battles, Leagues and your personal Battle editing page now correctly format line feeds in your Batreps.

by www.MiniMonsters.eu
(used with permission)

Sorry for the wait, I had to put this issue to one side a couple of times before I pulled all of my hair out! I don't know why it was so painful - I just couldn't quite get my head wrapped around the problem.

Anyway, the most recent member to post a battle hasn't actually used carriage returns so here's an example of a couple of battles by Lilloser10 who has (or see the below screenshot)

Note: f you've visited the battles page before you might need to refresh it or CTRL + F5 to reload the background wrapping stylesheet - if you haven't cleared your cache recently.

Note: You can edit your battle notes in your Profile > Battles page if you now want to add in extra carriage returns that you didn't bother with before because they weren't being recognised.

[tested on latest version of Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox and Opera; also iPad and Android browsers: Opera, Chrome, Dolphin. Note for default Android browser users: I had to clear the cache before it worked ok]

Best Army, Codex and Miniatures Polls (WFBattles - update)

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Wed, 16 Oct 2013 14:43:00 +0000

Sigmar's Warhammer Fantasy Battles - Member Polls page updated.

The Member Profile > Polls page has been changed to allow members to "opt out" of rating an army book / miniatures they haven't seen and armies they haven't faced in battle. (use the white down-left arrow - see below image).

All members who rated everything 5/10 (the default) have had their ratings changed to 0 (zero) on the assumption that they did not complete the page at all.

This has improved the accuracy of the ratings and Warriors of Chaos are clearly now on top with Skaven, Dark Elves and Daemons in the next chasing pack.

See the Polls Page for the full list. See the Army Summary for a snapshot of the Polls & Hobby pages.

Please Note: Members are now awarded Prestige points for completing their Profile pages.

(the below image is an example of the voting page available to members, it is not the final poll)

WFBattles Member Prestige & Ranking

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Sat, 12 Oct 2013 15:20:00 +0000

Rank and Reward system added to Sigmar's Warhammer Fantasy Battles.

by LoserStudio.blogspot.com

I have added an awards and ranking system to WFBattles.com named:-

"Member's Prestige" (under the Members section).

In a nutshell it rewards members for their participation on the site.

The most important aspect of the ranking system is that it rewards most those who post the best battle notes and/or links to external batreps and YouTube videos.

You get rewarded not only for the detail of your notes and for adding links, you also receive points for every Star that another member rates your battle. To encourage members to rate other people's battles, I've increased the reward for each battle rated to 2pts (irrespective of stars awarded). Members can rate battles 1 to 10 stars by clicking the "+" in the notes "N" column on the battles page.

Members are also awarded more points for posting Losses and Draws - because it's a lot easier to share your glories than your defeats!

The prestige points are used to calculate your rank, there are 15 ranks in total from the lowly Citizen all the way up to "God" status - I doubt anybody will ever achieve such high acclaim but you never know :-)

Simply filling in your profile polls and joining a campaign alliance will move you from Citizen to Militia.

To see how all the points are allocated click the below image and open the "+ Prestige Pts key".

Feedback in the WFBR forum or the WFBattles Facebook page (PLEASE LIKE ME!). Thank you.

Warhammer Fantasy Batrep Ratings - www.WFBattles.com (coming soon)

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Sat, 14 Sep 2013 20:48:00 +0000

WFB Report ratings (on www.WFBattles.com) will soon include the option to rate battles and gain battle reporting reputation (I'm naming it Battle Scribe Rep).

I've been working on Star Ratings for Battle Report notes & related batrep links on other WFB forums. The update will be applied retrospectively so all battles can be rated (so don't let it stop you posting them now).

It will allow any member to rate a battle report, the rating will be aggregated to provide average ranks per WHFB report (and show the number of times it's been rated).

I'll be adding a new page for the best Fantasy Battle Scribes (ie. the people who write the best reports or make the best YouTube battle reports - ranked by Scribe Reputation).

The Battles Archive page will also be updated so you can filter/sort by battle report rating (1 to 10 stars) The pic shows what I have so far on my development server...

Warhammer Fantasy Domination

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Sun, 08 Sep 2013 15:50:00 +0000

Battlefields page added to the WFB Stats Reckoning section.

I've just added a new page which analyses member battles by Warhammer Faction, ie. Forces of Order, Forces of Destruction and non-aligned Armies.

The Scales of War

You will find:-

a pie chart named "The Scales of War" which shows the dominance of the 3 factions in the Eternal War plus
a "Bitter Rivals" analysis showing which armies share the greatest rivalry on the field of battle.

A World Embattled - The Scales of War

This works by aggregating the member battles which involve armies from different "factions" (eg. Destruction vs Order vs Non-Aligned).
Internal strife between armies from the same faction are ignored.
Battles are weighted according to their points value size, so larger battles count more towards the faction's dominance than smaller ones.
Only member wins are included in the analysis, draws do not affect dominance and losses are ignored.

Bitter Warhammer Rivals

Shows those rival armies, from different factions that have spilled the most blood.
Rivalries are ordered by ferocity of fighting (number of member battles weighted by pts value).
Each member army is represented against their most bitter enemy.
All battles count irrespective of outcome (a draw doesn't mean that heads were not lopped off!)

the Bitterest of Warhammer Fantasy Rivalries

Many thanks to all the awesome painters who have granted me permission to use their miniature images. Their contact details are on the Warhammer Fantasy Battle Links & Credits page.

WFB - Most Feared & Revered Armies

WHFB Leagues, Best Armies & Players (online now!)

noreply@blogger.com (Sigmar) — Fri, 30 Aug 2013 19:16:00 +0000

www.wfbattles.com is online (and FREE, forever* !) and inviting players to post their battles, get ranked, create leagues and join campaigns.

* if you're wondering how come it's free, where are the catches..? There are none, I created the site to learn about SQL server, ASP.NET and C#. It costs me £80 a year which I see as a small price to pay for some real users (ie. you :-)) to test my creations out on and, hopefully, greatly improve upon.

If you've visited before you'll hopefully know what it's all about if not...

You add your battle details (10 battles per month), get ranked vs other players, can create your own league for friends/clubs, join an alliance and fight in a campaign for points and accolades and get to see loads of stats (which hopefully will improve over time).

The stats will be further developed but at the moment they focus on:- which are the best armies, which armies perform best vs which enemies, the best unit types (eg. Core, Special) the best Troop Types (eg. Cavalry, Warmachines) and which game phases you should be concentrating on (eg. Combat or Magic)

If you're still none the wiser, then either visit and read the Home page or see...

A WFBattles Feature summary

That's it. Enjoy and get posting those battles.

All miniature images on the site have been used with the very kind permission of their awesome painters.
