Game 3- vs Skaven
He had four warlock engineeers, with about 3 dispel scolls, 4 tokens, storm daemon and one other item which generates more power dice , four clan rat units with 4 ratling guns, 2 units of tunnellers, 5 bases of rat swarms, 2 warp lightning cannons, 2 units of six jezzils.
The army already scares me to death and the player had just had a game where he played against a dark elf player whom he trashed but also cheated his way through in some cases, taking a long time to play his game.
I hid most of my army behind a hill, moved one unit of dryads in the forest in middle of the table to march block him and yet stay out of sight. I took first turn and a master of stone killed off one unit of jezzails. He moved everything forward and one spell later I had lost one unit of glade guard. I replied by taking off two bases of rat swarm which had ventured into the woods (Calaingor's Stave strikes again) and one ratling gun. One cannon explodes on its own as he tries to take out a dryad.
And so the game goes I try to play for a draw knowing this would give me enough points to stay in contention for first and second place. That is when miscasts strike. In last two turns I get two miscasts all magic phase ends. It is his last turn and he moves all his warlock engineers on top of the hill where he magics my wild riders and half a treeman.
Game ends up in a minor victory for him. I should have given him first turn as he would not havemade his last move as this would have placed all his warlocks in charge range of the Treemen.
Loss 7-13
Game 4- Empire against Ian, one of my best mates. We both did not like but what can you do.
He had Elector Count on Griffin, Unit of 7 knights with a Captain, Hellblaster, Unit of halberdiers, unit if Gretaswords, unit of swordmasters, two level one mages with four dispel scrolls in all and a Steam Tank.
Once again I ignored the Steam Tank and let him eat or grind the Glade Guard. Treesinging got my two forests well around the place and into his deployment zone where Terror from Treeman caused the swordsmen with one of the level one mages to leave table, followed soon by Hellblaster. Strangle Roots took three wounds off the Griffin while combination of magic and strangle root brought the greatswords to below half strength. Terror also had his knights flee from the table.
I ended up having two quarters and he none.
17-3 Victory for the Wood Elves.
I ended up in third place and second best General.
First place was the Skaven guy I lost to and second was a Tzeentch army that looked something like this- Lord on Dragon, 2 Beast Shamans, 2 herds, 2 Chariots or 3 and Hellcannon not sure if there was anything else.
That is all for now.
