No Clocks

Destruction

Karchev - Black Ivan, Malakov + Spriggan/Juggernaught, Tinker, pAlexia, 2x Press Gangers, Hawk, Gorman

eNemo - Hammersmith, Lancer, Charger, Hunter, Centurion, Squire, Journeyman + Squire, Aiyanna + Holt, 2x Storm Callers, Black 13th

Khador end up with first turn.

Cygnar Deploy. Nemo proxied by Gorman. Junior and his Hunter is on the right flank.

Khador 1: Everything moves up. Alexia creates a Thrall then shelters behind the Jacks, which Gorman clouds.

Ideal Alexia placement is tricky. On these situations when going first against a list with capable, guns, probably worth feeding each Jack a focus so they can run after the Tow and make a Jack Bunker a bit further up the board. Creating a Thrall probably didn't have much value.

Cygnar 1: Stuff moves up, a few Pirates get shot. They are all out of collection range.

  

Khador 2:  Spells upkept. Blue Pirates charge in to the Hunter/Lancer. They mostly miss. Red Pressgangers jam around. Spriggan walks as far as it can, puts a flare on Holt. Ivan moves up a bit, shoots Holt (Out of Quick Work range), killing him and putting Aiyanna on one box. Eirys walks up a bit, shoots the Journeymans Hunter, disrupting him. Juggernaught walks over a bit. Gorman clouds, Alexia moves into a bunker of Risen.

 

Should have jammed the Hunter more with the Blue squad, as well as thrown the Press Gangers further up in general, whiel leaving a Spriggan lane. Spriggan could have charged the Lancer and beat the hell out of it (7's to hit, Powerful charge cancels Set Defence, Dice + 3 for the Spear attacks). Karchev. Eiryss disrupting the Junior's Jack opens up the Spriggan/Ivan to take out the Stormcallers instead and get rid of that damned Disruption.

 

Cygnar 2: Aiyanna kisses the Spriggan. Nemo Energizes, puts Forcefield on himself, Positive Charge on the Charger, then feats and pulls some focus back on himself, puts Failsafe on the Centurion. He tries to clear a charge for the Centurion on the Spriggan but doesn't succeed. Centurion charges Ivan, triggers Dodge but Ivan can't et away. He takes a big hit but all systems remain. Hammersmith wrecks a few Press Gangers, beatbacking his way into the zone. Stormcallers kill the Thrall and some Press Gangers, Black 13th do a bunch of shots including killing the Tinker.

 

 

 

Khador 3: I drop Tow, Redline upkept. Jugger and Ivan get three focus each. Jugger charges the Hunter, boosts the attack, Crits Stationary and easily kills it. Blue Press Gangers bounce off the Lancer and kill a Stormcaller. Red Pressgangers attack the Lancer and engage Aiyanna, bagman in the back does nothing, Lass on the front rolls box cars and removes the shield. Gorman blind the Hammersmith. Karchev walks up, sprays down a Risen and knocks down the Centurion, then casts Unearthly Rage. The Spriggan charges Junior and pastes him. Eiryss walks up and shoots the Centurion, disrupting and taking off Failsafe. Ivan moves up, bulldozes the Centurion back, then goes in and rolls low damage, his final attack gets rid of the Shield. Alexia moves up, Malakov hides behind the Risen, Hawk runs and engages the Charger.

 

Cygnar 3: Nemo loads the Charger, kills Hawk, Forcefields himself then steps back. Aiyanna runs away from the Press Ganger. Hammersmith moves up and engages Ivan, Centurion stands up and does a swing. Lancer flails around. Stormcaller disrupts the Jugger. Charger moves up and misses Eiryss. Black 13th take out Ivans Cortex and Gorman.

Khador 4: No allocations from Khador for the rest of the game. Jugger engages one the Black 13th. Spriggan walks over to the Squire and misses both attacks. Eiryss run to the left retreat style, Malakov runs to the right behind the forest. Karchev kills the Hammersmith. Alexia kills the Centurion and has Risen jam around the Charger. Ivan walks onto the wreck marker, shoots at the Black 13th and does nothing. Press Ganger squads kill Aiyanna and remove the Lancers arms.

Cygnar 4: Nemo moves up, kills Alexia. Stormcaller disrupts Ivan. Charger kills the Risen on it. Lancer does nothing, Black 13th shoots at things engaging them.

Khador 5: Spriggan walks over to Nemo, hits him and puts him down to two health. Ivna moves out of the way, shoots the Objective for a point. Risen get out of the way. Karchev gets Movement from Arkantrik,  charges Nemo and splats him.

Player Grading

Time Management: 7, played appropriately, had a plan each turn.
Scenario Awareness: 5, had a scenario plan but didn't push it hard enough, insufficient jamming.
Spacing and Placement: 7, things were mostly where they needed to be, particular happiness with Ivan being out of Quick Work range.
Target Priority: 6, should have prioritised the Stormcallers a bit more.
Effectiveness: 8, good dice math for the most part, multiple backup plans around.
Cool: 8, the Doyle returns with fun :-)
Grade: B (41)
