I take the table my team mates reject. I'm like a reverse of however that ad for Salmon goes.
Salmon is a stupid word. Just drop the "L".
I've got another series of forest blobs to advance on the Axiom, so that's nice. Can't afford to let the colossal drag in my heavies and kill them.

Round 1: I get first and run my shit forward into positions, Forced Evo on the right Road Hog.
War Hog moves behind a central wall.
CoC mostly shuffles around, runs forward an arc node dude who channels Magnetic Hold onto the War Hog. That's just annoying.

Minion 2: Primal goes ones a Gorax and the right Road Hog.
Arkadius moves way up the board, maltreats, feats and repositions to be behind the wall.
On the left, Rabo's get up the board to kill some Servitors. The Road Hog does a spray that kills the arc node dude. The Primalled Rabo goes into an Assimilator and mucks it up a fair bit.
The War Hog just limps across in the open, feebling requesting we put less metal in the drinking water of pigs.
Rightwise, Rabo attacks and frenzies clear out Shield Guards, allowing Hutchuck to rust the Axiom.
The fully buffed Road Hog goes into said colossal, it all falls apart in flashback to the opening masters game the day before, doing about 2/3rds of what it needs.

CoC 2/Minion 3: Various Rabo's, the Primalled Gorax and Road plus Hutchuck all get killed as Syntherion feats to get work done. At some point the War Hog Hyper Aggresives forward.
Unfortunately CoC stay so far back that I manage to score the centre and right zone, then in my turn I just have to kill the enemy objective and win on scenario.
Alas, our own CoC also got brutalised whilst Ossrum survived Esponiaged Nomads coming for them. We go down 1-2. One more round to attempt to submarine to a placing!
