He must not have been from West Virginia.

Did you break any rules in winning this game? Or just have a winning strategy, abet not a run forward and smash face with fist one?
If you broke no rules and outplayed your opponent then they have nothing to moan about, no one forces you to charge headlong into a gunline, or to advance towards the guy with a gun sniping at you.

If you had punched the other guy in the face, that would be a frowned upon tactic.

^ I like these guys.

You did nothing wrong. You played the game. Its about tactics and playing your army to win, you didn't feed the models to the troll bloods you maneuvered tactically and won.

Good game.
