Yet another TTS game against Norto, this time with him playing Craftworld Lugganath and me playing E-UK Skitarii. CW Lugganath v1.2b is very similar to v1.1, the only differences being 5+ Holofield on the Wraithknights as per Fir-Iolarion v4.2.6 and a hard limit of 3 formations in reserve for each Webway Portal in the army, like other Craftworld Eldar.

Had put both the eldar objectives inside terrain, so the compulsory Lugganath Wraithgate went on the Blitz. 1 formation of Guardians and 2 formations of Harlequin began the game offboard. Put two formations of Robots in garrison, while the Lugganathians can't garrison with anything.
