Arkadius (Tier 4) - 3x Warhogs, Roadhog, 4x Razor Boars, Targ, Brigands (Max), Bone Grinders (Min), Slaughterhousers
3Makeda + Exalted Court - Tiberion (Character Heavy), Archidon (Flying Heavy), Cyclops Shaman, Cataphract Incidiarii, Tyrant Commander and Standard, Aptimus Marketh, Bog Trog Ambushers (Max), Paingivers, Willbreaker
Summary:
Deployment below. I won the dice roll and went second. Bog Trogs go into Ambush and will pop out on my left.
The Road Hog dies early on to said Ambushers. One of the Exalted Court runs in to ruin the Warhog set up, he gets Primal Shocked, but the Warhogs are out of position for the feat and do self charging in order to get distance up the field. They then charge Tiberion and Archidon, Tiberion dies and Makeda gets engaged (Archidon gets missed to many times). The Brigands got shot up by the Incidarii, end up briefly engaging the Trogs. The RaBo's and Targ get lost on the right flank (Moved Targ to far turn one, was outside Arkadius' Control). They end up killing a Paingiver and getting massacred at the end of the game.
Warhogs get killed by Archidon/Makeda. Brigands get ginished by Bogs, Slaughterhousers took some Inderarii casualties, then ended up tying them up in the closing portions of the game.
Out of option, Arkadius charges the Archidon with a Mind Control Serum, you then goes and damages Makeda a bit.
Makeda charges Arkadius, sad times below.
Performance: 2/10. Bleugh. Multitude of mistakes here.
Deployment issues:
* Forgot Ambushers, should have deployed Road Hog on the right side of the back left Ruin
* Shunted Arkadius and Grinders behind the Warhogs, they do need to advance at full pelt
In Game:
* Should have kept Targ and the RaBo's closer Arkadius, the overall idea of getting stuck into the Paingivers could have been more feasible with better positioning.
* Warhog feat timing right, positioning wrong, should have sacrificed Brigands perhaps?
What I did right:
* Primal Shocked the blocker out of the way
* Crippling Grasp on the Cetrati before moving away
* That about it....
Arkadius - Primal Shock still handy, need to get rid of the Khador hang up of deploying the cast close up.
War Hog - Nice cheap strikers, positioning for feat is easily hampered by enemy activity alas.
Road Boars/Targ combo - Could have done so much more...
Road Hog - I need to stop trying to use it as a flanker, it needs screening infantry to survive
Brigands/Grinders/Slaughterhousers - Effectively independent of the Doc, should be run more freestyle than the beasts.
