Truncated Journeyman Week 2!
I missed the first week of Battlebox games, this week is 15 points, for the length of the league the Battlebox models have to be included.
This means that Journeyman leagues are likely the only time I'll ever use the Ironback Spitter, which I've despised since I started my flunking in Minions.
15 points games don't need to be photographed every turn, because I'm lazy about them and it's about having a bash with some laughs.
After Barnabus, Wrastler and the Ironback Jerktron I get four points. I've heard around the internet that pDenny is a nightmare, so in comes that model you desperately wish was an elf, the Thruuuuuulg (Said in high pitched whistle kind of voiced). The only one point option is the Swamp Gobbers, so in they go and done.
All games tonight were Close Quarters, because I'm lazy and didn't change table all day.
First up is Moops magic, who took the option of making his own battlebox that the Pressgagners's allowed. So Barny, Wrastler, Spitter, Thrullg and Swamp Gobbers faced:
Mortenebra! + personal Skarlocky chump
* Crabjack (Harrower I think)
* Stalker
* Stalker #2
* Warwitch
Moops gets first, we both run up, the Spitter manages to kill the Warwitch with a short scatter shot.
The Crabjack shoots the Thrullg dead, Morty moves to the friendly flag while one Stalker moves up to my flag.
The Spitter moves up, boosted shot hits Morty, corrodes her and does a bunch of damage.
Crabjack goes in, kills the Spitter. Wrastler tries to scratch the Crabjack, balls it up and gets killed while Barny kills a Stalker.
Barny charges a Swamp Gobber, fires a Flesheater at Morty that hits and puts her on one health. Cryx get to three CP. Morty is corroded.
Corroded goes out. For Cryx to win, Morty just has to move to her flag, the fully loaded Crabjack has to kill a Swamp Gobber and one Stalker has to sit on my flag. Morty casts Temporal Accelaration, moves to her glad and turns around to moon Barny as she gets the winning points.
Barny countercharges her, puts her in the ground. Glorious.

Game 2 is against pMadrak with an Axer, two Impalers, Moses and a Fellcaller hero.
The Fellcaller gets knocked down early on, then the Impalers try to go in on my heavies, where they bounce off. Barny countercharges one and knocks out his Spirit. Barny sits on the friendly flag, kills the Impaler, Blood Boons to kill the Fellcaller. Wrastler and Spitter kill the Axer.
Madrak charges a Swamp Gobber, feats and overtakes to Barney, where he fails to do enough to kill. He is then easily mauled.
Game 3 is against pMakeda with a Gladiator, Cannoneer and Aptimus Marketh.
Paul denigrated his Cannoneer all game, which he was right to.
I feated early on to ping the Gladiator, which the Wrastler then charged and buried. AN early shot on Marketh failed, but Thrullg ran in and engaged. Makeda tried and failed to kill the Thrullg, Marketh got it done. The Cannoneer had to move to protect Makeda. Barny sat on the friendly flag with Iron Flesh, the Spitter tried to throw the Wrastler at Makeda to knock her down, as Defenders Ward made killing her unpalatable. The Wrastler refused to be moved, instead charging and failing to do much. The Cannoneer rolled like rubbish, while a Swamp Gobber engaged and was annoying (The Gobbers partner was on the flag, had the engaging Gobber died I would win on Scenario.
Paul conceded, as he couldn't stop Barney camping around on my flag.
Last game, Souther with Zaal, two Shamans, a Brute, an Ancestral Guardian and min Beast Handlers.
I got owned here, the Brutes and Shamans were able to trade effectively against my Spitter, the Thrullg failed to strip off hte armour buffs on the Brute and the Wrastler was derptastic. Barney had no choice but to go in, even though it allowed an easy kill.
