You garrisoned your forlorn hope 15cm from an objective in your opponents half

Bad Chris! Bad!  :grin:

You put a blurry red blob (Feral Titan I think) inside a wood and didn't roll a dangerous terrain test for it before the game started?

Er... that's not a rule. There are no "pre-turn" dangerous terrain tests.

Telerporters need to test when they appear, but there are no rolls for normal deployment.

Rather interesting looking armies there...  :laugh:

And the prize goes to the finely painted Eldar in the corner!

Luckily all it would have needed to correct it was a strung out scout stand and it made no difference to the result (indeed they were sitting ducks).

Well you live and learn.  :)

Thanks for the game Chris! (and putting up with my unfamiliarity with Vassal and the Guard) I was convincingly beaten but learnt a lot.  

It did used to be 2D6 Commissars per guard army, no matter how big the army was, but that sensibly got changed to 3 per 500pts. Hopefully Epic-Uk will follow suit but for the moment it's still 2D6 there.

Titan Commissars are contentious and really not appropriate backgroundwise. Chris talked me into it last night and I do appreciate the tactical benefits of using them but... though it is legal there in the rules there, it's not in the spirit of the things or how I want to play really and I'm going to avoid it in future I think (or only place in Warhounds last if I roll that many and even then only use the Inspiring and Leader to represent a veteran princeps, passing up on the CC MW).

I think you mean 1 per 500pts.  :suspect:
