Game 4: Kolgrima vs. Sorscha3
https://pokeminiatures.blogspot.com/2019/01/game-4-kolgrima-stonetruth-vs.html

In which I try to see how long I can safely ignore a unit of Shocktroopers moving up the table at ARM23.

**Turnip Jedi**

Interesting reads, always good to see different factions in action as due to limited local playerbase I only get to fight Mercs, Khador or Cygnar

**malfred**

Turnip Jedi: Yeah, I get limited playtime against a great host of things. It's why I like to go out
to big events. At least there I will get to see something new.

Game 5: Kolgrima vs. Kreoss2

When you're up against a Judicator, you sometimes have to ask yourself just how lucky do
you feel, because that thing is going to hit you with guns, then it's going to autohit you with
Kreoss2's feat. I get lucky in this matchup and then I do not stay lucky...

My second game against Kreoss2 at that same Champions
event. This time I get to deal with a Shrine of the Lawgiver to
go along with the Judicator.

In which I get to deal with not one but TWO Supreme Guardians and the brand new Makeda
rework which is absolutely quite fabulous, all mixed in with the modified Exalted theme, which
is also a solid release.

The pain.

Sometimes you really don't want something to go out in one shot. I mean, other than
the enemy's caster...

Game 11 (I know, I keep forgetting to post here), Kolgrima vs. Zaadesh. Cloud War!

Tested out the new Infernal Master Agathon vs. Cyrenia. Of course this involved quite a few proxies.

They were all painted though.

Thanks for the reports Malf, all caught up now I think. How do you like Infernals? It's been kind of hard for me to follow what's happening with them, since the rules are so in flux, but am curious what your / the meta's take is.

I screwed up the rules in my game. Cultists are 4-6 models not 6-10.

The current summoning rules are probably the most balanced they've been. They
required you to sacrifice a Marked soul to summon to, and now Cultists are no longer
Marked Souls. So now you have to actually think real hard as to whether you need
to summon something to your utility character solos or even to your Wretches.

I rather like them.

**LunarSol**

I think the current summon rules are pretty well balanced, but its not really what I hoped from the mechanic. I was really hoping for a system that let you summon horrors pretty easily but put a heavy burden on the tithe tax. Unfortunately, the cultist unit seems to pretty much destroy the essence economy and necessitates a more restrained summon system.

Link says game 12, but trust me, it's game 13.

A series of mistakes shows me why I should both stick to the list and work out
the mistakes in my practice, but also how unforgiving it is to make those
same mistakes.

Storm of the North vs. Call of the Wild

My first run with the Dhunian Archon. Not sure if I used her, or even the list, effectively.

Kolgrima SotN vs. Thagrosh2 CotD

I try to make the Dhunian Archon *work* with my current Kolgrima build and fail to get much use out of her.

I'm attributing this to pilot error.

**Boss Salvage**

I think something's wrong with the settings on the last report's photos? I can't see them, and once I signed into Google (because a photo asked me to when I tried to view it), they all come up as (-)

Ah, thanks. I'm very annoyed with google for that.
