I was able to get 3 games in last night at my FLGS. Very happy with the way my lists for Legion played. My first game was a 350pt with a good friend who I always have trouble beating. I played Legion, he played Trolls.

Set up
Legion of Everblight: 344/350 pts

Saeryn, Sigil of Everblight
Angelius
Seraph
Shredder
Shredder
Shredder

Trollbloods: 348/350 pts

Hoarluk Doomshaper
Dire Troll Mauler
Dire Troll Mauler
Troll Axer

So I had turn 1. Both the Angelius and Seraph would run. Saeryn would discard 2. All three Shredders would move up. For his turn the same thing would happen. Doomshaper casted Forturn on a Mauler. Doomy would move up. The Axer and both Maulers would run up.

For turn 2 Saeryn would cast Mirror Magic on the Angelius. She then moved to the middle of the table where a giant terrain feature was to hide. The Angelius would charge the Mauler that did not have fortune. He was able to do 17 damage on his trust attack, then I forced him for 3 more times to attack twice, and boost the second attack killing the Mauler. Doomy didn't take the fury from him. My Seraph would move up to try and shoot the Mauler. I was in 10" range, scored a hit, boosted for damage, but only scratched the big beast for 2. His turn, he keept Forturn for free, casted the Axer's animus on the Fortuned Mauler, casted the Mauler's animus on the Axer, then charged my Seraph with the Mauler. Free re-rolls and dice +1 on all 3 attacks would be enough to kill the poor Seraph. I didn't take the fury from the Seraph. The Axer charged my Angelius, boosted to hit. Scored over 14 damage on the charge attack. He forced to swing again got a great roll to hit, then forced to boost, scored a 12 to kill the poor Angelius.

For turn 3 Saeryn moved up on top of the terrain feature and would throw her deathspur at Doomshaper. She boosted to score a hit. She hit Doomy and caused him to loose Tough, and he couldn't transfer damage now. She boosted the damage roll and got a 4. Saeryn poped her feat, made all her Shredders and herself bonded. I forced Shredder 1 to go rapid, and he then charged 11" over the middle terrain feature at Doomshaper. The little Shredder got a decent hit of 9. I never knew Doomy was so weak with only DEF13 and ARM14. I then forced Shredder 2 to do the same thing. Shredder 2 hit home and scored a either a 6 or a 7. It was just enough to kill Doomy.

Saeryn having the deathspur attacks causing the loose of transfering damage is the reason I won. This was my first time using her, and I noticed at the end of the game that Blight Bringer causes a auto POW 12 roll, and I could have used that sooner to win. All and All I think I did a good job. Any comments?

God, I hate Saeryn so much.

Her feat basically screws over every my preferred army type (melee).

Most of the high Fury/Focus caster warlock/warcasters are pretty wussy. I mean, apart
from Vlad/eVlad... Though I'm sure there are others...

I dont think she's a wussy.. the fact that see becomes so lethal with a RAT7 attack for a caster/lock kill is amazing. With a ROF of 3, and 7 fury, she can more then clean house when you know you can do enough damage to kill that caster/lock.

She's just like all other nimble locks/casters though. High DEF at 16, and a low ARM at 14. Trick is to hit her just like the rest of the casters/locks.

I just think her spells Blight Bringer, Equilibrium, and Respawn are nasty. She can clear out infantry with a simple Shredder, solo, or some warrior-model, bring back a just destroyed warbeast, and Equilibrium can trade off fury to another beast if you cant throw a deathspur at it or the caster/lock.

All and all I'm very pleased with the way she plays. At first looked, I didn't think I would like her. I'm starting to really love her though.

I like her playstyle, but the model bothers me.
