Karchev vs pSorcha
Karchev - 2 Destroyers, Kodiak, Battle Mechaniks, Manhunter
pSorcha - Beast 09, Juggernaught, Iron Fangs, Iron Fang Officer + Standard, Great Bears
Overview: Face off between the bulk of both armies at deployment, with Great Bears on the outflank and the Manhunter hiding in a forest on the opposing flank. Opening turns he advanced and shield walled the Iron Fangs. I cast Tow and advanced, removing a few Iron Fangs. The Great Bears advanced on the side, whilst the Iron Fang officer used her special extra advance + shield wall order. The Manhunter charged in, killing some Iron fangs, who killed him in retalition. Attempted a Karchev powerslide, but messed up the movement, so ended up killing the Iron Fangs and two of the Great Bears, but Sorcha popped her feat and Beast 09 got to Karchev and killed him in short order.
Overall: Complete misplay. I had bombards and he had no range weapons, I should have used tow and the arcantrik turbine for movement to shoot with the Destroyers then fall back and shoot some more, swing around to take out the Great Bears after dealing with the Iron Fangs. The Manhunter should have fallen back and hidden behind the forest as a distraction.
Performance: 2/10. Showed the true depths of noobishness, but learnt a lot. Nothing like a brutal lesson to drive a point home.
