pHaley - Stormwall, Squire, Gastonne + Galleon, Black 13th, Aiyanna + Holt, Dougal, Savio
Objective: Fuel
Moopsicles with the one list he brought.
eKromac (Tier of balls) - 4 Argi of some kind, 3 Griffons of some kind, Gorax, Stones + UA, Stalker, Witch chicks, Witch Chick solo played by Dahlia, the light Cav I've never seen before.
Playing the modded version of Incoming, now with objectives in the centre of the zones which are further apart.
As a leet player my D caster will be fine. Surely.

Cygnar Deploy: Win the roll, pick first because reasons. Centurion took the side with the friendly zone to be the contesting guy.

Circle Deploy: Big lump of light beasts in the middle, stones out front, cav tools on the left Preyed Junior. Weavers of Nightly stuff on the right.

Cygnar 1: Stuff runs up, I Crane Ace forward, who then advances and boosted shot misses the Stonekeeper. Well, that was depressing. Arcane Shield on Rowdy, Fortify on the Stormwall.

Circle 1: Junk runs forward, Hyper Aggressive goes up. The cav run to the far left.

Cygnar 2: Ace shoots the now Stone Formed Stone Keeper. Hits, boosted damage does one damage point.
That's a good pair of 7 point activations.
I shoot an Argus for a bit, fail to take out any Aspects, Rowdy hangs back, Centurion goes into my zone and Polarity Fields.
Intent was to keep my Upkeep stuff relatively away from the Dispel chicks, hampered by the list barely cracking the double digit number. Is this the only unit in the game with dispel all across it? I hope so because it's a pain in the arse.

Circle 2: Murder time.
Witch Chicks go, one charge Rowdy and promptly botches the Dispel (Looks like I buggered up my Centurion placement, there's only so much you can do with Speed 4 in my feeble defence).
Kromac feats and goes for murder death on the Stormwall, takes out most of it.
Combo hitting Argi finish it off, Moops takes a moment to drink my tears.
Stalker ports onto the Centurion and sucks.
Cav run into the left side of my deployment.

Cygnar 3: Stormsmith futzes around, Gorman targets him with a blind Grenade to plonk it on the Stalker.
Centurion gets out of the way, Rowdy then goes in and kills the Stalker with Jackhammers.
Darius falls back, putzes around.
Junior runs to the bottom ride board corner.

Circle 3/Cygnar 4/Circle 4: I push models around, fundamentally I just can't make meaningfull kills, Centurion falls down, Rowdy ends up surrounded outside of the zone, the light cav Assault and pop Junior as he makes a run towards the top right board corner.
I had a chance to contest and at least make the hippies work for it, plan was for Rowdy to grab a Primalled Argi and one handed throw it toward the stonekeeper, if he lives then hopefully the frenzy will do it and make me happy.
Rowdy lost the Strength roll.

Circle handidly cruised to 5 CP.
Damn you Circle!
Forgot to snap a pic of clocks, both had about 15 minutes or so.
I'll get over Darius one day, mystifyingly though I'm not there yet.
Donations came in, so good work Badge Vest guy.
I'm liking the look of the 2016 SR at this point, especially Linebreaker replacing Incursion. Down with three flags! Now they just have to find the magic solution to Strength of Schedule and we're good (Cut to top 4 would be good enough I think, or a percentage based on attendance).
