my thoughts: well, the SL list had very few activations because of the reaver. It also had no air units and very little ground AA (2 hydras). This time i concentrated on killing of smaller units and ignoring the reraver. The Knight BTS is almost always a very aggresive unit so they are always in danger. The Baron really leads from the front so to speak. I have started to count on giving uo the BTS objective to my opponent because of this. Castellans are a really good firepower boost. This list was a good mix of engagment prepping units (artillery and thunderbolts) and then lots of engage-monsters (paladins, errants and lancers). I was lucky to be able to win turn 2 initiative so i could assault the SL player and avoid being assaulted. That kinda sealed the game i think. |

What happened in the last turn with the Vultures? They rallied and then didn't seem to activate. |
