Battle Report - Warhammer Fantasy Lizards vs Orcs

 Hello Folks,

Another day down at the club. This week I was,able to arrange a 1250 pt game of warhammer fantasy. Decided to take the Lizardmen and would be fighting orcs.


Here's the set up, mage sarus warriors, steggadon and skins on the left, terradons, skinks, sarus cav and a jaguar general on the right.


Advancing up, flew in the terradons to trigger fanatics. Few guys killed from magic on either side but nothing crazy.


Goblins on the far right reposition a bit to tale the sarus cav charge, and the arrest boys on the hill kill a terradon.


Next lizardmen turn. I'm very nervous about having to fight 3 blocks of orcs on the left, so I hold on that flank hoping to break through on the right. General charges the far archers who hold, but the cav crunches through the goblins and over run into the archers who also die. Not great for the orcs line.


Orcs adjust to take the charge, and 2 units advance. Not much magic luck, but the archers gmhold against my general!


Next turn everything goes my way. 2 units pf orcs roll bad for leadership and fail terror test. The other gets charged by sarus cav and terradons and breaks.


Orcs are able to rally, but just with 1 unit,  and  brace for the charge.

Charge goes ok, but the orcs roll a 3 on leadership and hold! I was right to fear fighting 3 blocks it seems. Thats the end of the luck thou sadly, a turn or 2 of grinding and despite few dead lizards the orcs eventually break and that's that.

All in all a fun game, few badly timed animosities and leadership fails sent things my way.


As usuak a few shots of other club games. Mostly ancients but a pike and shot game as well.








Thanks;

Mike
