I’ve never seen Midas before, so this promises to be an interesting game. Tom wins the roll to go first.

Tom runs up with everyting. Death March on the Boomhowlers.

Kae is in range of a couple of Nyss, so shoots some off. Refuge on herself and Banishing Ward on Helios to protect against Calamity. Destors take more shots into Nyss but all miss. Everything else stays out of threat.

Road Hog sprays off a few Sentinels on the left but I don’t lose much else. Rest of the Minion forces move into position.

Helios moves into the right zone and pushes the Road Hog into the left Sentinels. Kaelyssa feats and I shoot off some more Nyss. 2-0 to me.

War Hog on the left gets into my Sentinels and kills a decent number, a few Nyss walk up and kill a couple on the right, but Tom is losing momentum pretty quickly. 3-1 to me

I don’t have to kill too many models to win on scenario so I clear his flag with the Destors and score it with the Thane. I win 6-1 on scenario

VICTORY

-      Tricky matchup for Tom, especially on this scenario. It is so easy to have things get away from you.

-      Midas doesn’t seem to do much.

-      Destors with Tactician are a lot of fun to use
