Hey everyone, recently a player has been coming up to our shop, accompanied by trash talk and rumors of how good she is.

The sigmar crowd at my local GW is pretty small, only like 5 players total, and rarely more than one game a day. Everyone there treats her as if she is the god of sigmar, and even the really good players have a hard time against her.

I played my blades of khorne against her elves, she was using the orgy of blood battalion and Allarielle on foot and some other things, I baited out the OoB drop with some blood warriors in a corner and deployed to minimize my loses to it by staying far away from it.

The witch elves were surprisingly resilient with the 5+ FNP, and she was really able to extend units into my lines, and the mortal wounds they put out are disgusting but she did just kinda leave the cauldron of blood thing in her deployment.

So here is my question- Are elves especially strong? Is the orgy of blood strong? Why was everyone hyping her up as a player? It was only my second game with BoK and one of my first games of sigmar period.

I apologize if my question is vague, I am just confused as to how exactly I won, my dice weren't particularly hot either.

Aelves are not especially strong, and in fact are a little sub-par at the moment. However in the hands of a skilled player they can definitely be quite powerful outside the cheesefest of tournament AoS. Additionally without much AoS at your store you all are likely used to each other's tactics but may have been unaccustomed to hers. I assume that like the majority of AoS players you and your friends are male, which means she was just hyped up because she's a chick.

I chose an avatar I feel best represents the quality of my post history.

I try to view Warhammer as more of a toolbox with examples than fully complete games.
