Haha - cheers Phil for letting me ghost in round three. The above photo is Noel's Ninja Goblin hewing through Archers (followed shortly after by a bolt thrower).
Silly sod TWICE failed to charge the Archers through a forest (crazy low charge rolls!) but with his dirty broken toughness of 4 (!), 3 wounds, armour, ward save AND the modifier for shooting through the forest the Archers only snuck through one wound. Was desperately hoping he'd fail his Fear check but was not to be.
Awesome and hilarious game Noel. Other highlights included:
- Trolls charging Swordmasters, getting smashed, fleeing and getting hit by a Fanatic and wiped out
- Doomdiver smashing all the Dragon Princes in one shot
- Elf BSB almost soloing the Big Uns
- Elf General and Spears losing by one against little Gobbo Terror Mask hero and the thrice-damned NETS OF DOOM. Elves failed test. Failed reroll from BSB. Fled 4"
- Shooting Panics the other Gobbo block but they rally! Gobbo Mage destroys Lion Chariot with D6 str2 magic missile. Gobbos Panicked again from shooting, almost make it to the edge of the board. Last turn, last shots, last two members of the unit killed off. Blasted Gobbo Mage survives unscathed!
- miscasting with L4: miscast takes him down to a L1, then I realise I have the Staff of Solidity, then he Steed of Shadows across the board and Pendulums the Doomdiver to death
- a Bolt Thrower, Lion Chariot and Orc Rocklobber going into reserve (Meeting Engagement) and everyone forgetting they can turn up on the first turn
- Feedback Scroll killing the L2 Elf Mage
- Sea Guard with Okkaam's Mindrazor butchering Goblins and obliterating a Pump Wagon
- L4 Mage killing a Goblin Hero ("Tricksy Trinket this! Thwack!")
Looked like everyone was having a great time when I turned up. Battle for the pass anyone?
