We arise at the break of dawn for pre-Slam game (Bang on 11....in the morning....madness.....)
Cryx time, and I've done enough Caine for the moment. Definitely didn't feel like running Pigs into that gambit again, so instead we get both barrels of fun:
eHaley - Stormwall (Bonded), Thorn, Black 13th, Squire, Journeyman, Tinker, Gorman, Hawk, Anastasia, 2x Press Gangers
Objective: Effigy of Valor
Incoming, Damilosopher through down ye old hit single by Missy Higgins.
pSkarre - Slayer, Skarlock, Necrosurgeon + Stitches, Blight Trolls, Gerlak, Satyxis Raiders, Satyxis Captain, Bane Thralls + UA, Tartarus, Gorman, Saxon, Stalker
I'd forgotten how striking the Stalker is, must resist urge to buy a small Mortenebra army with them...
Cygnar Deploy: I Anastasia it up, go first. Stormwall goes on the Offensive zone side, Haley on the other.
Cryx Deploy: Trolls to the left, Banes to the right, stuck in the middle with you.
Cygnar 1: Arcane Shield the Storm Wall, things move up, the Storm Wall throws down some covering fire and a Pod that gets exploded by a Black 13th Mage Storm.
Cryx 1: It transpired that I screwed up my Covering Fire, as the Raidres get Desperate Paced then run in via conga line and jam up the pirates. Everything else moves up at the sedate not-Witch pace, Skarre hangs out behind the Slayer with a cloud. The Stalker goes waaaaay to the right onto the hill.
Cygnar 2: I want to feat and score on my opponents turn. Plan is infantry clear out the jammers, Thorn distracts the Stalker, arced Time Bomb stops Tartarus getting in. Hawk and Press Gangers maul the pants off the Raiders. Haley feats and ends up toeing the right zone, Time Bomb scatters way off Tartarus. 13th bravely cower behind the wall, throw out a Mage Storm that kills a Bane. The Stormwall walks back around the Objective in a redundant manner to throw out some shoddy Covering Fire. Thorn gets TK'd forward, charges the Stalker, takes out 2/3rds of it (Still has Movement and left arm).
That's a bad Covering fire that is, mucked up the Storm Walls positioning badly.
Cryx 2: Everything limps around. Skarre moves up, pops feat for 5, attempts to double Hellfire Haley boosting the to hit. Leaves her one one.
Cygnar 3: Kill Skarre time, Blue Press Gangers get out of the way, Haley hits with a Time Bomb for a few points, Gorman throws a Blind, Black 13th finish the job before anything else can activate.
Me on the right.
Still playing "How can I get Haley killed". Really need to stop that sillyness....
