Final game of the SR sees me up
against an interesting Minions pair with Sturm (Drang did not feature). I won
the first turn.
Polarity
Shield on the big unit and everything runs
Vision goes onto
the Road Hog and the beasts get up the table, with the Road and War Hogs at the
front of the line.
I take out both of the front line
beasts with the Halberdiers and some AFG shots. Skeryth flanks hard on the
left.
Snapjaw goes into the Halberdiers
on the right, killing a few. Skarath’s spray clears the way for Brine to get in
to the Phoenix, but narrowly fails to take it out. 1-1
I take out both Efaarit, Snapjaw
and Brine, leaving Skarath on a handful of boxes. The attrition is going very
well indeed. 3-1
Skarath tries to do what he can but
can just take off a few Halberdiers. 4-2
I have a simple enough task to
clear the zones to win 8-2
VICTORY
- Armies with no anti-shooting tech and no upkeep removal will always
struggle against this list, and Decel from
Sturm is just not enough to stop the AFGs running rampant.
- I always felt in control in this game, even had the Phoenix died to Brine
I would have felt in a pretty strong position.
- Finished the event in 2nd behind Mark, and starting to feel
very comfortable with this Rahn build.
