For day 2 of the Southport Steamroller we have split into 4 man pods based on the results of day 1. This leaves me in a pod with a Circle, Cygnar and Cryx player to fight out for final positions. The first game sees me against Chris and his Hateful8 Scaverous list. Chris won the roll but chose to give me the first turn and we got moving.

Inviolable Resolve on the Sentinels, Admonition on the Phoenix and everything runs up the table, being careful of the threat ranges of Deathjack and Kharybdis.

Chris puts up Death Ward on DJ, and Escort on Aiakos before everything runs up in a rough V formation.

Chris was really careful with my threat ranges until his final activation with Deathjack, which he placed in melee threat range of the left Trident. With both heavies in range of Cryx heavies and my Feat allowing me to see through clouds, I can get in and deal a lot of damage. By the end of the turn I have taken out Deathjack, Erebus and Kharybdis, and Malice is knocked down and Disrupted. Chris concedes.

VICTORY

Chris didn't appreciate the threat ranges of the army and knew he had lost the game to a pretty devastating alpha. There isn't really too much to say about this game other than the fact that Smite is the rule on the Trident that seems too much, it had Ram at one point in CID and honestly that would be the more balanced rule. Onto the final.
