Game 8 - Win - eIrusk vs Makeda

Result:Win
  5-3-0

eIrusk vs Archdomina Makeda (Skorne)


eIrusk - Kodiak, MoW Shocktroopers (5), Widowmakers, MoW Demolition Corp (3), WG Mortar
Makeda - Molik Karn, Titan Gladiator, Praetorian Karax

Game: Skorne went first, the Karax shield walled and advanced with an enormous speed boost from a spell. Turn two and Makeda popped her feat, which would return any dead Karax unless the unit was wiped out. Entire Khador army unloaded on the Karax, the Man-Wars all charged, literally only just killing them. Molik charged, killing the Demo Corp and most of the Shock Troopers, whilst the Kodiak and the Titan Gladiator crippled each other. The Shocktroopers wailed on Molik for a turn, until there was one left, who moved out of the combat dying to a free strike, allowing Irusk to shoot the last points of Molik. The Kodiak finally died to the Titan, who was then pummeled by the Mortar and finished by the Widowmakers.

Final phase of the game was Makeda vs EIrusk, the Mortar and the Widowmakers. Charging through the Artifice of Deviation, she killed a pair of the Widowmakers who promptly passed their Tough rolls. Irusk, for the first turn of the whole game, didn't upkeep Fire-for-Effect and charged, burning focus for extra attacks and boosting attack and damage rolls, killing Makeda.

Overview: Did well enough, prioritised appropriately.

Unit Overview:
  • eIrusk: Actually got kills for the first time ever, doing in a character Warbeast and the enemy caster, should utilize him more in the future (Warbeast was a boosted shot, Maketa was stabbed repeatedly).
  • Mortar: Gold, Fire-For-Effect allowed it to ping the Karax and messed up the Titan a bit.
  • Widowmakers:Should not be fired into combat. Didn't achieve much, but didn't fail either.
  • Man-O-Wars:Demo Corp with Battle Lust evil on the charge. Shocktroopers sacrificed themselves for the greater good as they should.
  • Kodiak:Misused, could have achieved a little more, but ultimately not a huge problem.
Performance: 7/10. Need to look up some basic rules I was unsure on, should have made sure opponent understood that the Kodiak had a boosted defence of 12.
