Tues equals game day

With the day off Dustin and I decided to throw down this morning. Having only 15 points he was kind enough to play small games with me. My list is pKreoss, Crusader, Revenger, a Repenter, Min unit of Choir, and the Vassal of Menoth. Dustin had Haley, 3 Stormsmith Stormcallers, Hunter, Lancer, and Charger. Once again I'm a new and not sure if that's his list for sure. I was more worried about playing and learning my force at this point.
His deployment

My deployment

My thinking was use the Ravenger with his shield and hymn to be the front line with a 21 defense. Repenter and Crusader would follow up to mop up the rest. I was also hoping that since I have made a real effort to paint the dice gods would be happy with me. I took a picture of just how happy I made them.

Pretty happy right. Three sixes. Well that was a boosted damage roll made by Dustin. That leaves a mark no matter what kind of Hymn you use. The game went bad when I knocked out the Hunters gun arm I and Dustin retreated I thought I was get a free strike. Um not so much in this game I guess. Oh that's a Star Wars Miniatures rule. DOH! It was really his guy had parry but I wanted to cry a little. My dice rolls where average but his where unreal. I need to repent to Menoth so he looks down on me with blessings.

Well this is a picture of the final turn. Crusader charged and killed a Stormcaller which I was told was a little over kill. but since it was the only model I killed I'm glad I did it.

I learned that placement of my caster is real important. I was also in charge range. My reasoning was because I was using Lamentation to slow down being disrupted. Kreoss got shot to death. He would have been charged as well anyways. So the lesson today was model placement. I think I was better at using my focus but it could improve as well. This game made want a shooter bad. Kell Bailoch is looking ever so tasty right now. We tried to squeeze in another game before we had to start picking up kids from school but on'y got a few turns in. Dustin decided he hates the Choir and Vassal. I also thought a Mechanik would be nice to have along since I'm so jack heavy. I may try one of them and Wracks for the two points of the vassal.

Great game even though I lost. I really needed to have my butt handed to me I was thinking I was getting good at this game. It will be nice when I have enough models that it makes people wonder what I'll be fielding. Thanks again for the great support from readers keep the input coming!
