Game 2, into Southinthetank. Still streaming, lower your expectation further than normal, etc.
Still have Gorten and Thexus, the Elvidors are rocking Ossyan and Garryth.
Concerned that Gorten gets lasered off the board by Ossyan, I dropped Thexus thinking his anti shoot tech would be better.
It's Garryth. Whoops.
Thexus seven Monstrosities list. The army that has Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent.
Garryth1 - Sphinx, Manticore, Chimera, Destors, a bunch of Arcanists, Invictors, speedmoving magicky solo guy
Objective: Fuel Cache
Scenario is Entrenched, I got put on the same table so same Terrain jumbled around somewhat.

Ret 1: Ret win the die, nab first.
The Destors get mirage, go into the left zone behind the cloud.
Everything else hangs relatively back, the magic whippy solo man in front of the Cricket.

Merc 1: I deployed Thexus a bit to far from the right, so after everything moves up he casts Decel and can't get quite behind the forest as I'd planned.
Otherwise Monstrosites spread out, usual mess of support figures behind.
Ret 2: Skipped the pic, essentially I'd not taken Mirage into account so a Destor pops into the cloud and I get to live in fear.
Whippy solo gets out of the way of the Cricket, Arc Node walks up.
Garryth advances forward, feats, arcs a Gallows through the Chimera, hits Thexus and drags into contact with a Monstrosity.
Sphinx I think moves up, does a shot on Thexus that I palm off to the Wrecker who Hyper Aggresives forward a bit.
At this point the assassination run fizzles out due to misapplied order of activation.
It comes down to a single Destor charging Thexus. Lands the hit, I can't focus reduce the damage.
Puts Thexus on 5 boxes. Eep.

Merc 2: Kill kill kill! I DON'T WANT TO DIE!
Thexus feats to free up the assassination run. Can't spend focus but Garryth isn't camping anything, so should be fine.
Thexus backpedals up, TK's a bunch of my things.
Left Warden runs up to be 2.5 inch from Garryth, left most Wrecker then Slams him. I land the hit and get the Slam distance thankfully, after that the centre Wrecker charges for free to Aggresive Reaction and one shots Garryth.

Me on the left.
If we immediately played a rematch I'd lose nearly every time. This should have been Gorten, who I'm unsure of into Ossyan. Some sweet sweet chickenage.
In any event, I luck out and am at 2-0.
