| This Thursday, we had a record 10 players for our 200 point constructed tournament (and even then, 2 regulars didn't play!). Thanks to the very successful sealed event on the weekend, our gamers for good food donation bin is almost full again! It's only been a couple weeks since we last dropped off a load of food but it looks like we'll have to make another trip soon. There were lots of Bloodwar pieces flying around tonight, but I suprised to be the only one to field Storm or a Gnome Trickster. I was lucky enough to not have to face either of the Marilith bands (since she has blindsight).

In the first round, I faced Grubbis' Solar on Mushroom Cavern. Thanks to my band's invisibility he couldn't make good use of the Solar's Slaying arrow early on. His thundertusk moved in, hit a dragonkith and retreated to a safe distance. I played it safe until he advanced the Solar to the front line. Then I managed to base it with both dragonkith and the HOB. At the beginning of the second round, I managed to catch the Solar, both Aasimar Fighters, the thundertusk AND the dragonmark with Storm's silverfire without catching any of my own minis. I also managed to move my timberwolf into a position so that the thundertusk couldn't join in the melee without first taking him out. Fortunately, he missed the attack due to conceal and the Solar went down to a barage of attacks - even with the dragonmark adjacent. The game was conceded at this point since most of my minis were untouched.
In the second round I faced Orcdoubleax's Large Silver Dragon - again on Mushroom cavern. First round, we both just cast buff spells and advanced. My flying HOB extended far enough to block his fodder from getting in front of the Dragon to use as a target for his breath weapon. After winning the second round inititive, I allowed him to play first and forgot that he could also use the dragonmark as his lightning rod. He cast protection from cold on himself and moved in front of the dragon and breathed on both dragonkith and the HOB. I failed the save with both dragonkith, but passed with the HOB (thankfully!) Since they were still invisible, I moved up to flank the bodyguard and took him out with a pair of attacks, cleaving into the dragon. I also killed the commoner with the HOB and moved to base the CoO and Eberk. I end up failing the paralysis save with both dragonkith and my gnome trickster when the dragon breathed next. Fortunately, both unparalyzed before he could get his attacks off. My HOB managed to take out both Eberk and the CoO without much trouble (since this was caves of pain and he was dealing 25 damage). The next round, I only had the Dragon to deal with. Storm joined in the melee and with a bunch of lucky rolls, managed to drop him only losing one of the dragonkith.
In the third round, I was counting on the victory points from bounty to help getting to 200 without having to take out the fire giant. We again played on Mushroom Cavern and when the giant, shuluth and dragonmark all moved to the centre, I focused my attacks on Shuluth and the dragonmark. Thanks to cleave, I managed to take both out before they could do much harm. I used the HOB to hunt down the Greenspawn and later the other goblins. While the dragonkith were tying up the giant, everyone else went after the goblins and took them out in short order. In the last round (with only 1 dragonkith down) I routed the giant and the game was conceded since he had no chance to rally.
Due to having 10 players, at the end of 3 rounds, we actually had two players tied for first place (both 3-0 and identical tiebreakers) so we just rolled off for the prizes. I won the roll and took the Lillend while Zak X got the Epic Gith Dragon Knight card.
