Final round of the day, the chance to even up our record.
Round 4 is the other half of the nearer pond crosser, NZ South.
Scenario is that old devil Incursion.
I went into the eVayl tier of total balance, triple Angels, double Ravagores, Hex Hunters and the Pot.
Pretty sure I won the roll and went second (Anastasia has been money all day). I picked the side with the less intrusive forest, centre line of the board is scarily empty.

Legion Deploy: Two Angels took the left foresty side, one went centre and the Gores went to the right. Totally not on suicide watch Spell Martyr smacked down in the front.

Merc Deploy: Not as lopsided as the last game, though still a bit weaker on the right with the forest.

Legion 1: It all moves forward, Beasts and hexies as the front row.
Spell Martyr pelts forward, because an Obliteration of doom that explodes four Press Gangers. Did not space out that well.

Merc 1: Press Gangers run forward in what now looks like a weird lopsided infinity symbol. Other junk behind.

Legion 2: Slow advance, Admo Angel on the far left sits near the left flag, Occultated one is closest to my face up front. Hexies awkwardly space around the front line.
Pot gets filled out, pops out a Shredder who mauls a Press Ganger.
A bunch of shots went, Earthbreaker got dinged up a bit and the total amount of Press Gangers went down to half health.

Merc 2: Plan is to score twice, jam around and commence the delete one heavy a turn game.
Press Gangers and Gun Mages kill the Shredder and the front Hex hunters, Thorbreaker deletes the forward Ravagore.
I had an awkward moment here of do I feat or not. Feat was only going to get an Angel and some infantry. My problem was twofold, the first being that the Angel was in charge range of the Earthbreaker, which is how I lose, the second being that I'd activated everything so I'd have to use Gorman as my charge target.
I got past my reticence, accepted Gorman's death (Which did happen) and feat back the Angel and a few of the infantry.
Mercs go to 2 CP.
Oh, a Thrall went to annoy people on the left flag.

Legion 3: Vayl feat turn.
The Pot lumbers forward to contest the middle flag, spawns a Stinger that kills a couple Press Gangers. Madelyn weathers an oblit, Solid Ground only being Purified after. Two Angels, one with Refuge, end up on the left flag. The Occultated Angel and the now Admonitioned Ravagore go on the right flag.
Legion go to 2 CP.

Merc 3: Things are coming up slinky, the battlegroup is so divided that the Earthbreaker can safely go in on the right.
Press Gangers pop the pot, which poops a harrier that Hawk fails to hit.
On the left, the Gun Mages push one Angel way away from the flag, Alexia charges and burns most of the Risen to kill it, Anastasia goes to score off the flag.
On the right,, the Earthbreeaker gets full focus, boosted attack rolls and lumbers forward. The Ravagore Admo's out of melee, which was fine because I was killing a Heavy regardless as I shoot down the Angel.
Gorten runs and hides behind the Earthbreaker.
Mercs go to 3 CP.
Legion 4: No pic alas, due to time constraints.
Adamsky could see the writing on the wall, so went for some points nabbing. The remaining Angel exploded Alexia, Vayl moves up and Obliterated away the remaining Press Gangers, the other pieces kill a couple solos and stuff.

Merc 4: Earthbreaker moves across, explodes Vayl.

Me on the left.
Pretty much went the way it is intended to, Incursion forcing the Legion battlegroup to split up was nice as well. The minimal feat wasn't super efficient, but I'm satisfied it was the right call.
We got some Kiwi-venge here, coming out 3-2 team wise.
