SPORE Con : Battle One – Everblight vs Pirates
My first battle at SPORE Con was against the pirates and I was quietly confident, I’ve played Shae enough times to know all the tricks and was even prepared for the rifle men to shoot into my deployment zone on turn 1. I was prepared for the Pirate charge, the mini feat, which my archers were spread out to take the brunt of, but what I wasn’t ready for, was how fast Everblight beasts die when hit hard.
.
And I was really dissapointed that after getting my Totem hunter all the way across the board, and engaging the commodore that he was then vaporized due to the Shae 3″ feat that left him facing a POW 20 spray attack, ouch! Not much left after that.
.
The central battle was a general collapse especially after I popped my feat and then forgot to move Rhyas so none of my beasts could advance far enough and as usual the odd pirate or two just constantly got in the way, that said I cleared up a lot of the solos and felt all the better for it.
.
Late game Hawk charged Rhyas, missed and got killed by the Riposte, yea I had to chuckle over that, then I found I had Rhyas and the Gobber Smoke team left on the table, Ryhas charged into combat and killed off a bunch of pirates. Next turn she was surrounded but my opponent was willing to risk missing and being killed by a riposte. Shae had moved up cast a spell and missed leaving him within killing range… but before that could happen my Gobbers got nailed handing me a loss by “Army Destruction”
.
And you’d think I’d always remember to move my warlock when she popped her feat after that
