| Apologies in advance, there are gonna be a lotta holes in the warbands, I really shoulda grabbed the warband registration sheets.
Anyway, we had our weekly thursday tournament with a nice turnout of 14 people, probably helped out a bit by the news that the July retailer kits were finally here. We got in 3 rounds of swiss, since we've got a fair number of younger players that need to get to bed on time. Heck, I need to get to bed on time for that matter. [:P]

| I decided that my orc champions hadn't gotten to have any fun for quite awhile so for our 200 pt tournament this past thursday I played:
Tiefling Captain
Orc Druid
Eye of Gruumsh
Orc Champion
Orc Champion
Orc Wardrummer
Timberwolf
Timberwolf
I went with the dragon shrine map due in part to the resistances it offered, but also due to the fact that it had magic circles and I would gain more from +2 to hit than my opponents would I figured.
Round 1 vs Gabe:
Gabe had: Dwarf Sargeant, Tordek, Warforged Hero, Meepo, Anvil of Thunder, Gold Dwarf Soldier.
He won map init and selected his Mithril Mines, and he won setup init and chose side B (the one with the long unbroken start area instead of the two smaller ones). I won init on round 1 and had him go first. He moved his warforged hero up towards my victory area with difficult terrain in it and the rest of his band moved up along the other side of the board in the hallway between the magic circle room and my other victory area. I moved a timberwolf onto the victory area near his warforged hero, and moved the rest of my forces up.
Round 2 I won init and charged his warforged hero with my orc champion, critting for 55 damage and forcing a morale save which he failed. This was convenient since he had to move the dwarf sargeant back to get LoS to rally the Warforged Hero which meant tordek and friends weren't going to get an ac boost anytime soon. He did manage to rally the warforged hero, and moved a gold dwarf soldier up towards his victory area. I went after it with my other orc champion but missed. I hit with a snake swiftness on the GDS but he made morale. He moved up his anvil and wasn't really able to do much.
Round 3 he won init and smacked the orc champion with the GDS for 15 damage, and tordek put 20 on the other champ. Here I made a bit of a mistake. I used a timberwolf to flank tordek with the OC and the OC managed to hit 1/2 for 30 damage. But then meepo smacked the wolf for 10, forcing morale, which he failed, and tordek was able to hit and cleave into the champion, which forced morale for the champion and he failed too. Fortunately he wasn't anywhere near close enough to rout off the board. The Warforged Hero died to the eye of gruumsh, while the anvil of thunder put another 10 damage onto the non routing OC. The OC retaliated by killing the GDS and cleaving into the Anvil, but I missed the 2nd attack. Another snake swiftness forced morale on the anvil but he made it.
Round 4 I finished off the anvil and rallied the OC. He put some damage into the eye, and the eye responded hitting 1/2 attacks on tordek forcing morale but tordek saved. The eye made his morale save as well, and I won init on round 5 to finish off tordek leaving him with just a dwarf sargeant and meepo to deal with an almost dead eye and two half hp champions so he conceeded.
1-0
Round 2 vs Dan P
Dan plays exclusively LG (there are 2 or 3 locals who do for whatever reason) and he had a half orc paladin, Loyal earth elemental, gith monk, justice archon, meepo, dwarf artificer.
He won map init and chose my dragon shrine, so that I likely wouldn't have a chance to rally if I failed morale. He also won set up init and chose the cold side.
Round 1 he moved his guys onto the shared victory area, and I sent a timberwolf to my victory area by the statue of tiamat. The other timberwolf moved onto the non victory area magic circle to be closest target for a charge, the wardrummer started the resistance drumbeat and the eye and champs and druid advanced.
Round 2 he won init and had me go first. I shuffled some pieces around sending the timberwolf to the acid (I think) victory area and moving the drummer up. He shuffled some things around and cast Legions shielf of faith, but it was apparent he was going to camp on the shared victory area and I was gonna have to go root him out. Fine with me.
