Well we deployed and all, and set up terrain and arcane fulcrums. I went first.

Turn 1 - chaos
My two charges failed, so I went straight to magic. Not much happened, killed his abomination, made a wizard stupid. On to the shooting phase. Hellcannon number one targets his doomwheel and misfires. It rolls a 3 and....

All his wizards except an engineer and the plague priest that was on the furnace (and can't leave it) DIED. Yup. A 3 means all wizards suffer a miscast. Thanks to the infernal puppet, all of his wizards either got killed or lost enough wizard levels to no longer be wizards. As I said the plague priest can't leave the furnace to take a fulcrum, and he had one engineer with one wound.

Second hellcannon fires, targeting his doomwheel. The shot hits,wounding but not destroying the doomwheel. However, it did make the doomwheel go out of control and smash itself on the arcane fulcrum an inch away. Its destruction forces a panic test in the slaves behind it, and they roll an 11, failing despite their general being nearby. Since his big unit of 50 slaves was only inches from the board edge, they fled right off, taking his wounded engineer with them.


So that was it. With one wounded wizard locked on his plague furnace, the game was over instantly. He could have fought for a tie, but with no magic to counter me and losing two key units...it was over.


I heard storm of magic games take a while....I guess not!!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3716376.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3716376.page GMT World's shortest storm of magic ever, 5000 points lol, that is hilarious....

Caused enough casualties to break an opponents squad turn one, which cause panic checks in other nearby squads. Pretty much everything ran off the board on turn one.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3718160.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3718160.page GMT World's shortest storm of magic ever, 5000 points http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3718165.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3718165.page GMT World's shortest storm of magic ever, 5000 points lol.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3727814.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3727814.page GMT World's shortest storm of magic ever, 5000 points
I suggest you paint that hellcannon up real nice.

Haha I was expecting a silly slaan thing where it ended up being a horde of saurus vs a silly unit of something but this this is much better.

Congrats.

My 3k game took over 5 hours because I had to kill a unit of sword master 3 times I think was super annoying but was a blast over all.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3729643.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3729643.page GMT World's shortest storm of magic ever, 5000 points SM's?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3746906.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3746906.page GMT World's shortest storm of magic ever, 5000 points http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3747406.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/419025/3747406.page GMT World's shortest storm of magic ever, 5000 points
