Diary


6/7 Versus Cygnar led by Stryker. Won (9/9) +210 Gold Coins.

Won the game but took hefty amount of damage. I scored 9 VP including Stryker while my opponent also score 9VP without killing my warcaster. On top of that I was not able to buy warjacks in the city, leaving me with an almost all troop army to face Khador warjacks and MoWs led by the Butcher.

Pre-game. Army size: 500

+1 Goreshade 80
+1 Skarlock 16
+2 Slayers 220

13/7 Versus Khador led by The Butcher. Won (6/0) +120 Gold Coins.

Went straight for the Butcher with Goreshade fearing I could do little damage to the rest of the heavily armour Khador although I did manage to shoot down the Man Hunter with Pistol Wraith. The Machine Wraith never saw action. Reached The Butcher and killed him with help from the Bane Thralls. End of game.

Pre-game. Army size: 402

20/7 Versus Khador led by Vlad. Won (8-1) +230 Gold Coins (Whoopaaa!)

This was never going to be a fair game after Vlad took a heavy beating from Stryker in the previous game. I think Vlad had 250-300 points vs my 497 points.

However this did turn into an intersting game since Vlad wasn’t about to give up without a fight and even after I killed his Man hunter, killed his Widow Makers and took over his Destroyer with my Machine Wraith, Vlad still stood his ground against the Cryx horde and almost turned the Slayer I Soul Gated into to him to scrap metal. However facing 30+ Cryx he never had much chance.

Next game will be against the current campaign champ, Nemo, who also have a grudge against Goreshade from a previous multi player game…

Pre-game. Army size: 497
