Epic Gore

This week painted up a new caster. Epic Goreshade it was. And here he is in all his undead glory:

I took him out for his first game last night, a 35 point match against Christian "Kei" Valentin. He was using Epic Haley in that game and this was the list he used:

Faction: Cygnar
Casters: 1/1
Points: 34/35
Major Victoria Haley (*5pts)
* Defender (9pts)
* Squire (2pts)
Arcane Tempest Gun Mages (Leader and 5 Grunts) (6pts)
* Arcane Tempest Gun Mage Officer (2pts)
Black 13th Gun Mage Strike Team (4pts)
Stormblade Infantry (Leader and 5 Grunts) (5pts)
* Stormblade Infantry Officer & Standard (3pts)
Eiryss, Mage Hunter of Ios (3pts)
Journeyman Warcaster (3pts)
Rhupert Carvolo, Piper of Ord (2pts)


I used this list for Epic Goreshade:


Faction: epic Goreshade - Heresy of Shadows
Casters: 1/1
Points: 35/35
Tiers: 4
Goreshade the Cursed (*5pts)
* Deathripper (4pts)
* Deathripper (4pts)
* Defiler (5pts)
* Skarlock Thrall (2pts)
Bane Thralls (Leader and 5 Grunts) (5pts)
* Bane Thrall Officer & Standard (0pts)
Bane Thralls (Leader and 5 Grunts) (5pts)
The Withershadow Combine (5pts)
Bane Lord Tartarus (4pts)
Pistol Wraith (3pts)
3 Scrap Thrall (1pts)
3 Scrap Thrall (1pts)
3 Scrap Thrall (1pts)

It was a long and drawn out battle, reaching 6 rounds before I managed to finally get as assassination run in and that run was exciting as well with me missing my boosted charge attack and then proceeding to miss the next attack as well. I was sweating at the third bought and boosted attack. If I missed that, most likely I wouldn't have enough focus to kill her. Luckily the third attack hit and I proceeded to roll an 11 for damage sealing the victory. I will wait up for Kim to upload the video of the batrep and link it to this blog.

Until next time!
