It’s Friendly Week…
A bunch of matches went on over the past week, mainly none ladder friendly matches.
.
The Legion hooked in an incredibly lucky win at 350 over Skorne, with 2 beasts dead by turn 3 and left in the open Lylyth was all set to be run down by a large hulking Skorne beast, who managed to miss his slam attack, and his follow up attack, leaving his own warcaster exposed and crunched by the remaining Legion beast. One more dot on the slam roll and it would have been the end of Lylyth.
.
Epic Lylyth went up against Epic Madrak in a three hour 6 turn throw down. The legion got the early upper hand hitting into the Troll deployment zone on the first turn and then using the Stridders and Gudrun to slow down the Troll advance enough so that on Turn 2 when Lylyth popped her feat that it was gunnery smack down time all around. Lots of pain! Then Madrak responded and cleared up a mass of Legion forces, getting with 4 wounds of killing Lylyth too. It was still looking good for the Legion until their Gator minnions got tied down and beaten up by the Troll cavalry and the archers got mashed by an Axer on a killing spree, then with nothing left that could really damage Madrak, it became a battle of survival as Lylylth jumped around between surviving models to stay alive and keep knocking off Trolls. The battle was very even and probably could have been won by the Legion if I’d positioned the Crocs more centrally. Out on the wing (again) then did nothing (again)…
.
But the Legion got a bit of pride back beating Borka at 500 with Vayl, though again it was very lucky as Borka ballsed up his charge lane and ran into a model, leaving him horribly exposed, but looking safe with 4 Fury on him… the the Unforgiven said hi and did 33 points of damage, 16 after armour, transferred to a Frost Troll that died soon after as a Carnaeveron with Chiller on it went head to head with Borka within range of incite. no boosted attack or damage needed, 7 attacks saw all the Troll warbeasts dead and Borka failing a toughness check on the second time of asking.
.
And over in Warmachine Cygnar and Menoth fought out a viscious 500 which saw almost nothing left for either side by the end of the battle, I believe Cygnar won, but I was too busy getting killed at 750 at the time to notice who killed who in the end.
.
I feel some 1500 battles coming on soon! New models should arrive soon from the painters too, boosting Skorne, Khador, Legion and the Circle.
