Our LGS started a week-by-week tourney; play current round opponent during the week instead of an all-day thing. For a smaller LGS, a 10-man turn-out is not bad. We have Pigs / Skorne / Circle / Menoth / Khador x 2 / Legion / Cryx x 2 / Ret (me).
My Pairing:
Ossyan (Defenders of Ios)
- Sylys
- Hypnos
- Banshee
AFG
Arcanists x 3
Ghost Snipers x 2
HG Thane
Halbs + CA
SFA
SFA
Garryth
- Sylys
- Sphinx
- Banshee
Arcanists x 2
Narn
MHA
MHSF + E3
Sents + CA + Soulless
HSBM
First Game (Outlast) against Cryx (Gaspy3 / Sturgis). Both my lists worked into either, so Ossy ended up into Gaspy3.
Gaspy 3
- Vociferon
- Kraken
- Cankerworm
- Defiler?
Necrotechs x 2
Darragh Wrathe
Souhunters
Satyxis Blood Witches + Hag
I won roll-off and chose the edge that didn't completely screw me. Halbs moved up in shieldwall, a forest between them and the Soulhunters.
Turn 1
Cryx: His whole army runs.
Ret: Slightly tilting to see his whole army at mid-line. Mistakes were made: a proxied Hypnos moves into walk range of Kraken and Admo was elsewhere, Halbs run to engage remaining Soulhunters and fill space (they had range to charge). 4 Blood Wicthes and 2 Soulhunters killed by shooting.
Turn 2
Cryx: Kraken rolls box cars (twice!) on damage rolls to Hypnos; flicks an attack to kill Hypnos and another to kill a Ghost Sniper. Gaspy3 Feats and with Soulhunters kills 6 Halbs. Gaspy on 0 Focus.
Ret: 'A' for assassination attempt! Sylys does Arcane Secrets, Ossy moves up and Arcantrik Bolts arc node, Feats and shoots arc node for -2 DEF. Future Sight and Feat make interesting interaction against Gaspy3's Feat. Banshee aims and hits arc nod for a slam into Gaspy3; arc nod destroyed, 10 points to Gaspy.With AFG and a unit of SFA already in aim range, we call the game.
Afterthoughts: He expected me to go for the Kraken, which would have left Ossy open to incorporeal Soulhunters next turn. I should have used the Halbs to clear the remaining Soulhunters from one zone for a CP to add to a middling 62 army points destroyed. Also, the AFG is pretty darned good as is, so I am loving any improvement it gets!
Discovered my next opponent is Khador, so rocket spam or jack spam....
