Gringo wins, I Palm-->Face

Had ym game against gringo last night and it was really entertaining. I have never played a more tense game and it really came down to the wire. It was a fantastic game and it was really fun, though the pressure did get to me, I was knacked afterwards. Here are the forces:

Forces

My force was as follows:

Old Witch
-Scrapjack
-Destroyer
-Spriggan
-Wardog

Doomreavers
-Escort
10 Kayazy Assassins
-Underboss
Great Bears
Greylords
Koldun Lord
Widowmakers

Gringo's Force consisted of some really nasty stuff, but lots of infantry

pIrusk
-Kodiak

10 Kayazy Assassins
-Underboss
10 IFP
-UA
Great Bears
Widowmakers
10 Cylena Raefyll & Nyss Hunters
Manhunter
Manhunter
Yuri
Widowmaker Marksman
Here are my highlights:

After us both doing some fantastic manovuering I proceeded to forget to feat...TWICE! The first time I ended up been really happy. If I had used my feat then I would have killed a few models but not much. The second time I forgot again and this time I lost all three of my jacks!!

At the end of the game I made a last ditch attempt to go for the kill with OW on her own. She had 12 focus so I tried to go through the whole of his kayazy and nyss. I managed to kill 10 but with only 2 focus left I was not able to kill irusk, and she got CRAed to death by the remaining nyss the next turn.

Lessons learnt:

  • dont forget to feat
  • OW + Cull Souls + Unseen Path is VERY useful. a total of 15 souls reaped in the turn, and I could have probably done more than this.
  • nyss hunters are pretty darn good, but make tasty souls
  • scrappy is pretty fast (though that is me just playing Khador)

  1. Yeah, that final turn was fucking mental. Check out my pictures and shit on the blog. You see the lack of dark red? That's all her fault. :D
