Looks like we took it to turn 7 by mistake. Very unventful battle as most of his army was on the left side of the board and he was perfectly willing to take shots at my lions in the forest, which kept getting killed even with cover and a 3+ save.

HE magic was useless, and diadem is overpowered in small games(you dont have many spells, so you can get an extra 2 dispel dice all the time). Shield of saphery was too short ranged to be of much use, and there werent much magic items in play at this point level for vauls. Extremely bad magic phases for me all round.

Archers were, as expected, overpriced and did mostly nothing, especially when shooting at long range, skirmish and with a forest.

Probably shouldnt have charged the skinks with the white lions.

Once agan, low LD with no re-rolls most of the time was NOT as crippling as i expected...it seems surprisingly easy to pass LD 6 tests without re-rolls on a 3d6 drop highest.

Terradon riders managing to instant kill the eagle was unexpected.

Skink priest being able to pivot and march 12 inches around my eagle was also unexpected.

Very nice!

Keep them coming!

You said the Skink Priest had Iceshard Blizzard and Harmonic Convergence; where did Urannon's Thunderbolt come from?

I think the Lizardmen list is illegal, at 1000pts you need 250 points worth of core, the only core I could see was 2 x 10 Skink Skirmishers, this only totals 140 points.

On the report itself, the LM player is also shown as having a block of what looks to be 15 saurus, which at it's least costly still brings core to 305pts.

Typed it wrongly. Im pretty sure he took harmonic and thunderbolt instead, but it didnt matter because he only casted thunderbolt a few times before miscasting and dropping to level 0.

Lol - did the two dino's actually kill anything other then Skinks?

I think the razordon might have killed one or two white lions.

They where on lunch break.
