had a great time at the prerelease . i went 6 - 0 to take first place my warband was.
lady vol 98 arcadian avenger 31 shadowbane inquisitor 36 giant eagle 18 kuo - toa hunter 9 darkmantle 6 i played on kings road to boast ac's and becase 4 out of 6 of my peices had fly, lady vol and shadowbane had ac 27
none of my matches went to time, lady vol is a beast in sealed there where no large golds, jarls drawn not even from prizes
here goes, it is a little foggy so if i make anymistakes on warbands or such let me know and i will change it.
round 1 i beleive SkYlyn3 not good with names (sorry) but he tore me up at the qualifier with quad asures
he had 2 gnoll clan fighter, wolfgar, ice mephit ,i think hobo marshall ,cerebrilith
what i remember wolfgar got off his line, he took out my dark mantle kuo-toa and giant eagle. lady vol used force wave to move both gnolls off of victory area. then next round hit wolf gar. won intitive next roung hit wolf gar and he failed morale running off of the board, never landing a shot. sorry thats all i remember from round one told you it was fuzzy
round2
shadow dragon otyugh marshal delver dont remember the rest
we played on my map
we engaged the bulk of warbands about the third round with little kills along the way. he constricted my avenger for 2 rounds. routed his dragon by the 4th round and killed the otyugh by the end of the 5th. still had my 3 hitters and vol was only hurt by 5. end game
round 3 mr. ray he won map played on the rooftop map
he ran mindflayer lich dread wraith chapion of dol dorn hobo marshall
with most of my guys having flight i was good with this map. darkmantle landed on shared victory then moved to my victory. he moved his wraif to intercept to the right and the rest of his bnd came down the left. perfect. because my plan was to ignore the wraith until last . why fight the incorpral on a fig that can only do 10 damage. used my eagle to dive commander witch had beed my tactac all day. he failes save then faild morale. hobo gone. he then took out eagle withmelfs acid and i failed morale. i based lich with vol and hit for 20, he then droped champ off roof to flank vol, taking 10 damage. i then flanked champ with avenger. won intiative. 40 damage on champ morale save based by vol minus 3 he failed then hit for 20 more by vol. then 2 hits to mind flayer for 40 more. he moves wraith to joined victory after disbathcing my dark mantle. he swings twice at vol hitting once for 10. i base wraith with shadowbane. win next intitive, i have 30 victory points. i take out mindflayer with vol and move avenger in to place. wraith takes out koa toe. next round i base wraif with vol and in form him that if he hits evertime for the next 4 rounds he can not kill vol who is now gwtting victory points and i will win, and if you can not beat vol you can not win. wer play 2 more rounds with all of my peices surrounding him . end game
round 4 dont know his name
he ran orc rider greater barghest hobo marshal carnage deamon delver sargeant dont remember the rest
he wins his map the one with slippery surfaces. ice map
we meet at the middle of the board i use acid to liven things up and blast the barghust, carnage deamon, orcrider. then move eagle between vol and orc rider. orc rider takes out eagle then base vol. now the bargust and orc are side by side on victory area avenger flys over to set up flanking for shadowbane and hits bargiust for 15. i win next initive, i hit orc for 40 and he has to make morale, he failes taking aoo from both the avenger and the shadonbane. then i land 50 on the bargust to kill it. he moves commander over to get line of sifgt to orc, orc makes morale. next round he moves orc i base with vol and kill it. the rest falls easy.
that puts me 4-0 the only undeafeated.
the finales i play mr ray again. it is a mirror match to the first ecept on my map. i used the same tactics and in the end the only peice standing was the wraith this time he wants to play it out. i hit twice with vol making both incorpail chaecks, he hits for 10. next round i hit wice but miss one incorpial but it was enogh to take out the wraith.
last match and tha toughest of all six.
played i believe lord raven (hope that is right) i had dreaded playing the aspect all day and here it was he played
aspect of ( she does how much damage ) shadow dragon hobo sarge gnoll darkmantel koa-toe cant remember the other peice won my map
he moved the shadow using hobo move action . i moved up the side for the most part. tried to dive one of his peices, but he killed it his next set of activations with a charge and nat 20 from the dam koa-toe. talk about a trooper. by the end of the 1st round he had taking out 2 of my peices, the eagle and the mantle. 2nd round i move to the center of the map and had grouped 2 of my hitters. he used the dragon to breath them, i failed the check on the vol and took 25 damage, past with the avenger. he based my koa-toe with his gnoll.. round three he killed koa-toe, shadowbane finnally made it to the midle forest to join the rest of the group. he killed my avenger and i beleived it was his koa-toe i killed. now we enter round four. we roll iniative and i roll a three. with his aspect basing me i needed to win init. he rolled a 1. just pure luck on his part. with his aspect wounded i put 40 points of damage on it to force the morale at a -3. she fails. then i route his commander with the shadow bane. he attacks and hits once i beleive with the dragon and misses with the gnoll. next round i route the dragon off the board. he atemps to rally the commander. and fails and with no commander the aspect runs. leaving him with very little. to hit my now 27 ac and 75 fearless hitpoints on vol and 40 fearless hit points on dragonbane. this match could have easily went his way.
to the best of my memory this is how it all played out if there is differences please let me know and i will correct. thanks to all the people i played. had a great time and look forward to next time. |
