Game 62 and 63 - Wins - pVlad/pMagnus vs Ashlynn twice


Result: Wins 
43-20-0



Game 62

50 Points - 3 flags, assassination
pVlad - Conquest, Gun Carriage, Wardog, 2x Kayazy Eliminators, IFP (Max), Doomreavers, Aiyana and Holt, Mechanics (Min)
Ashlynn - Galleon, 2x Mule, Press Ganger, Sea Dogs, Hawk, pEiyrss, Aiyanna and Holt, Lanyssa, Madelyn


Summary - Doomreavers/Kayazy up the left killed off Hawk and got stuck on the Sea Dogs. Press Gangers on the Right toughed out against the Gun Carriage, where Kayazy and A + H were stymied after the Kayazy killed Eiyrss. Opposing A + H and all Jacks clashed in the middle, with IFP screen getting horribly butchered.
With feat and focus Conquest wrecked the Galleon inspite of Ashlynns feat. Mules loaded up and took out a third of its health. Conquest then grabbed a Mule and threw it at Ashlynn,killing her exactly (14 damage). Vlad spent the game hiding popping SnP.


Performance - 8/10, matched up poorly on the right, Madelyn and Press Gangers were a bigger threat than anticipated. IFP sacrificed appropriately, would have had a lot of trouble if the Mules had been blocking the Galleon.

Game 63

25 Points - Assassination
pMagnus - Mangler, Nomad, 2x Renegades, Kayazy Eliminators, Gorman
Ashlynn - Mule, Press Ganger, Sea Dogs, Hawk, pEiyrss, Aiyanna and Holt, Lanyssa, Madelyn


Summary - Jacks spread out, got buffed and advanced. Kayazy went far right to take out Eiyrss and Madelyn. Eiyrss ran into the middle rather than be killed, Madelyn was left as a distraction. Pirate horde advenced up th emiddle spread out, Ashylnn and Mule far back.


Last buff (Iron Aggresion) placed, Magnus moves to the right as do all the Jacks. Magnus feats, the two Heavies run up and engage various PIrates, the Mangler up in the middle, the Nomad in the front. One Mangler went far up field, one stayed in front of Magnus. Kayazy killed Madelyn.


Ashlynn, A + H and some Pirates combine to kill off the Mangler, the Nomad gets surrounded but is barely hurt (Temper Metal).


Obliteration Assassination attempted, first targeted a Pirate next to Ashlynn to Knock her down. Second shot put her on three health. Nomad flailed without effect, Kayazy spaced out and run up, one positioned for the assassinate. Gorman clouds up Magnus.


Kayazy survives several attacks by Pirates, Ashlynn charges and feats to kill her. Eiyrss misses Magnus. Mule charges the far outflanking Mangler, does a bit of damage. Hawk charges other mangler and does a bit of damage. The Pirates around the Nomad move away, feat stops free strikes from doing anything, they move up with one getting to the back of Magnus.

Kayazy charges Ashlynn, misses twice and is killed by a counter blow. Mangler engaged by Hawk takes a free strike to kill the pirate in Magnus' rear arc. Magnus charges Ashlynn, takes no damage from a  free strike. Boosting to hits under Ashlynn's Feat sucked hard, counter attacks took 2/3rd of Magnus' health before he connected and killed her.



Performance -  5/10. Number of lucky events to win. Possibly should have kept Mangler behind Nomad, who was better placed and could absorb more damage from the Magnus feat movement.
