Game 186
Close Quarters
Calandra - Dozer, Impaler, Horgle + 2 Pyrotrolls, 2x Warders, Nyss, Kriel Stone + UA
Proxies for Dozer and Impaler.
Opening moves, Mercs won the die roll and went second to avoid the forest. Standard upkeeps up. Eiryss runs up the extreme flank.
Bottom of 2. Eiryss snipes a Kriel member. Earthbreaker knocks down most of the Warders and several beasts. Kayazy charge into wall of Warders, Risen and Thrall gum up some Nyss. Gorten charges a Kayazy, feats. Gets huge chunk of the trolls, but falls literally 1mm short of Calandra, which would have killboxed her. Sadface.
Bottom of 3. Trolls trundle back, Kayazy jam in, Gorten runs to the friendly flag.
Turn 4: Warders get up into the mix, Earthbreaker knocking down a few on the way and killing all but one member of the Kriel unit. Gorten sits on Flag, gets up to 3 CP's.
Bottom of 5. Warders charge Gorten, ding him down to six health including an earlier hit from Dozer. Earthbreaker moves around annoying Warder, shoots Calandra who has two transfers to death after the opening Quake shot hits.
End Clocks, three minute clock is mine.
