Hello All,
Had the pleasure to play another game with Mr. Nick this evening who is practicing for a big event.
Decided to try out my dragon, gotta get the bug green guy in a game!
We played a mission from the tournament pack, kind of standard battle with table quarters, 2 strategic locations and secret objectives. I took 1 where you had to kill the enemy general.
Here's the set up, I put wildriders on 1 flank, dragon on the other to spread out the threats, infantry in the middle, skirmishers in the woods hoping to mess with artillery.
Empire went first but didn't do much except try to shoot some scouts who used evasive.
I moved up with most no shooting stuff, killed some skirmishing archers. Really want to somehow slip the wild riders past the tank. Which will be impossible if it's aggressive, but ok if it's not since I can use the wood to block my sight.
Empire position sone halberds and the griffon to fight the dragon and shoot sone shots killing a guy or 2 here and there.
Seems like i got excited and skipped some pictures! On the left the wild riders ride past the tank and stood in the open in front of the outsiders. This risk worked out and I only lost half. Then got the empire cav.
On the left big green charged the halberds, who feed the dragon a priest and I bounced back 2. The griffon then charged in, but ot turns out griffion v dragon is bad for griffons. Now he's feasting on halberds.
I had moved my rangers 1" from the empire big block of spears who now charged. I thought i could win this fight, but only if they did this. Turned out to be a draw due to the griffon standard. Oh also the empire mage blasted my poor dancers off the table.
But then they get flanked by a dragon and treemen. At this point the empire called it. They would have killed my riders probably, so like 500 points for them, I win by some amount.
Anyways fun game.
Thanks;
Mike
