I'd have thought you would be pleased - nobody with MW or TK shooting for Dino hunting (except spaceships)

Good luck tomorrow gents, gutted I can't be there too...

Well that was a great tournament.

Game 1 Ferals vs. MikeT and his Chaos Space Marines.
The game started for with my Orks rushing forwards and Mike trying to pick units off. I was concerned at the end of turn one and pushing for a 2-0 win at the end of turn 3. Mike pushed forward his BTS to prevent the win and with some nifty shooting from the Steam Gargants I was able to claim BTS, TnH, DtF & TSNP for a surprise 4-0 win.

Game 2 Ferals vs. Yme-Loc and his Eldar.
My win pushed me up to the top table to face Joe and his B-T Eldar. In hindsight I should have advanced differently, but Joe killed all three of my Orkeosaurus and most of the rest of my army. I was happy after the first two turns to only lose 2-0.

Game 3 Ferals vs. Dptexys and his Chaos Space Marines.
After my battle with Mike I was looking forward to taking on the CMS. However, Dave teleported his Terminators in at the start of turn 2 and whilst losing the strategy managed to maul two formations in the first engagement initiated by me. I managed to break both terminators but for more losses than I expected. This was followed up by my Madboys engaging a broken terminator formation, losing and failing to rally on three attempts. The game remained close and finished up on points which Dave won. (Shouldn’t have engaged with my Warlord’s formation which lost me 350pt in the last turn.)

So fourth over all and three great games. Thanks to everyone and see you at Challenge.

Had a really good time at Roll Call this weekend, with three tough and enjoyable games against great opponents.

My Biel-Tan army

Wraithgate & Avatar
3 Aspect Warhosts
2 Guardian Warhosts
2 Falcon Troupes
2 Void Spinner Troupes
2 Vampires
Rangers


Game 1 vs Dave B (Black Legion)

Dave’s Army

3 Upgraded Retinues
Terminators
2 Chosen
2 Ferals
Decimator
Devastation
Daemons

The game is a bit hazy now, but I do remember it started very well for me. However in the second turn Dave hit back using aggressive play with his remaining Retinues and warengines. I was still ahead in the game going into the third turn but an attempt to be overly tricksy at the beginning of the third turn backfired and resulted in my BTS being slaughtered by Terminators.

I still held just enough of an activation advantage into the fourth that some luck enabled me to scrape a 2-1 win (Defend the Flag, Take and Hold vs BTS). But it was a very tight game.


Game 2 vs Tim H (Feral Orks)

Tim’s Army

3 Wild Boy Warbands with Orkeosaurus
2 Junka Brigades
Mad Boyz (11)
8 Boarboyz
Steam Gargants

A monstrous horde of Orks, but thankfully not a bad matchup for Eldar. Tim basically had to weather two turns of heavy fire and hit and running just to get into a position to really hurt my army. Then the Aspects got to hit the Orkeosaurus.

This combined with Tim’s dice being appalling (basically his army had decided to turn up without any armour and this was compounded by him failing virtually every dangerous terrain test he made) meant that going into the fourth turn there were not a lot of Orks left on the board.

Still his BTS and Blitz were safe in the form of the formidable Steam Gargants and sneaky use of his Madboys (in true Orky fashion) prevented me from getting Take and Hold. So the game came down to if he could rally one of two remaining broken Boarboy formations in my half. His dice having long since abandoned him said no and I snuck another win 2-0 (Defend the Flag, Shall not pass).


Game 3 vs Steve G (Death Guard)

Steve’s Army

3 Upgraded DG Retinues
Land Raiders
Plague Zombies
Plaguereaper
Defilers
2 Plaguehounds
Hellblades
Daemons

A game of two halves this one as it started heavily in my favour but through very good play Steve fought back making sure he wore down my army at any opportunity. My activation advantage and armies greater mobility meant I had some slim chances at victory as the game came to an end. But it was a tough fight that ended in both armies at half strength and a complete draw.

Mostly though, all I can say really is F@#!ing Zombies

Overall a really good day of Epic gaming.
