DS's activation luck wore out sometime in late turn 2. It ended up being a a reactionary game for the IG after that, just trying to prevent the Marine win and doing as much damage as possible. It ended up 4-0, with the Marines taking everything except Blitz.

Nice game!

Despite the final score, it was a close game. Unfortunately my failed activations piled up, as Dave mentioned. I usually don't take Baneblades, but with a point reduction I would probable take them more often. The overall points reductions essentially gave me an extra activation.
