Wow....so I didn't get a single Iron Arm! Not good. And only 1 Enfeeble! Not really what I was looking for. At least I have Endurance on almost everyone. However, Iron Arm is paramount to surviving all his Tesla Destructors.

You cheatin bru ?

Those are garbage powers. I really feel bad for jy2. I'd reroll them just for the sake of making the game more entertaining. The daemon prince made out like boss.

If he rolls average for shooting with his barges both Flyrants could end up dead. Very risky plus what is the advantage?

@ jy2 - you got very lucky with your saves for the two Flyrants. I would not have put my faith in the dice. Looks like at this point the game is very close. Two very aggressive players.

That's very interesting for me to know. Like I said I don't like to take big gambles but I certainly respect your decision making processes. Well it worked out for you so we have a very entertaining game. : )

Here is a better breakdown for jy2:

1) The night scythe comes in from reserve and lines up to finish off the flyrant.

2) The 2 left barges will move up just enough to get in range of the relic tervigon.

3) The two night scythe will move up the minimum 18" and fire on the tervigon unless for some miraculous reason the barges kill it first. Hope the arcs can do some damage to all those surrounding units.

4) The dlord + wraiths will move back to charge doom, they will not use jump packs in the movement phase to make sure I get enough charge distance to get lord into base contact with doom. They will stay just out of 6" from doom. If they get the charge on doom I want MSS to go off before anything.

5) The cultist are gonna move back to the board edge in a line.

6) The lone barge on the right is going to move back and turbo boost an inch back to end up in the corner. Far away from any threat and with a 4+ cover to anything but impaler cannons.

7) The warriors in the middle are going to move back and to the right again avoiding 6" bubble of doom. They will shoot at doom rapid fire.

8) The 5 warriors disembarking from the night scythe will rapid fire into the flyrant after the night scythe skyfires at it, if it is still alive then the 5 warriors in the middle will switch from shooting doom to shooting the flyrant, if it the flyrant is dead they will both shoot doom.

9) The cultist if in range will fire at doom.

Getting really exciting now !! Just like reading a batrep for two top players on a top table at a GT.

I guess we all know who won. Don't take it too hard.

Well played indeed.
