10 Scouts- Standard 182

9 Scouts- Standard
Noble- Hunters Talon, Pageant of Shrikes 309

Game 1, Dwarves- I won in a massacre. He had 4 gyrocopters, but 2 were reserves so I only had to really deal with 2 of 'em. Alter made his way down the side and flanked damn near everything. I basically pushed hard on left flank and forced his hammerer and clansmen unit to spin around in circles the whole game until I was ready to pounce on 'em. Dryads knocked out a unit of slayers and longbeards that came on in reserves. Total was 27- 2 in VP's.

Game 2, Skaven- Drayads with a blood soaked choppa are without a doubt the most dangerous unit on the board this game. They took care rather easily the plague monk/ furnace unit and then went back to my deployment zone and killed off a night runner (the tunneler/ infiltrators) unit. GG made short work of one Abom. Treeman kept the other one busy the whole game. This was probably the most bloody game I have ever played with a wood e'f army. There were turns where I actually had 6 units in combat at once, which is not normal for my WE playstyle. I pulled a major victory out here, would have been a massacre if my TMA hadn't died at the end of the 5th turn. Total was 20- 5.

Game 3, WoC- His whole army was 3 infantry units and 2 warshrines. If the game had actually gone past the 4th turn I think I would have pulled out a rather nice victory. I was basically leading him around the battlefield by the nose. But I was just starting to get units into attacking positions when turn 4 ended and we rolled the 3+ to end the game. We ended in a draw with total VP's 11- 11.

I ended up in 2nd due to a first round bye that one of the other WoC armies picked up and my early game ending in a draw. He got 20 VP's for his first round bye and the other two games he managed to get 17+ vp's. He had a fairly solid WoC list, but if he had played his first game in place of the guy that ended up dropping after first round due to getting his VC army pounded into very small pieces. He most likely wouldn't have grabbed 20 VP's. I'm happy with 2nd though, it gets me into next round. The other two that advanced were of course the incredibly undercosted WoC armies. If no one comes into town here to play next round we'll end up in a round-robin to decide 1st through 3rd and I'll just have to build one army to deal with 2 WoC armies that are virtually identical. Changes I would have made in hindsight are; I would have made the alter a BoL/ bodkin machine gunner. spirit sword was nice, but there was just a ton of armor out there. Hunter's Talon/ PoS noble wasn't worth it. I had expected to see some more Teclis armies, so he was my Teclis sniper. Hunter's Talon is fairly ineffective against anyone else really. My original version of this list had 2 TMA and 2 TM. It was nasty if you got all them on the same unit, but it was to vulnerable to a nasty crackscall or some such madness so I grabbed the alter instead.
