Some WMH Games

Had WMH games this week.

Wed, I had two games, one vs Kim and one vs SJ.

Against Kim, I lost.

He had pIrusk, Behemoth, Kovnik Joe, Great Bears, full Iron Fangs and UA, Widowmakers and full Winterguard.

I used eThagrosh, Typhon, Scythean, Raek, 3 Shredders, 3 Spell Martyrs and 2 Forsaken.

Both Kim and I were cautiously positioning. I did see an opening so I got overeager in my strategy and tried to go for assassination. Not enough support and the second Shredder missed as well as the Raek. So I conceded the game since Thagrosh was in melee range with no Fury on him.

Against SJ it was a brutal attrition match. He used Grissel, Earthborn, the tale spinning solo, Fell Blades, Krielstone Bearers and 2 units of Trollkin Champs.

Star that game was Scythean taking out a unit of Fell Blades and a unit of Trollkin Champs almost all by himself. Though the supporting guys at the other end of the line, Typhon, 2 Shredders and a Forsaken didn't do so bad themselves. Shredder killed a Champ almost singlehandedly. A Forsaken killed off one also. In the end, with no more hard hitting units and Grissel without LoS to eThags, SJ conceded the match.

Yesterday I had a game with EJ. This time I went with Strakhov. Accompanying him was Behemoth, Fenris, Battlemechaniks, Doom Reaver+Escort and Kayazy+Underboss. I lost this one. Unfortunately, I have not had much games vs Retribution and so was unfamiliar with most of the EJ's army. Also I rolled bad on my attack rolls though the targets were higher than usual Def but if half had hit, it would have removed quite a few of his threats. Sadly, the MHA wasn't one of them. It survived 2 Doom Reavers and so got to Strakhov and killed him for the win for EJ.

Anyway, all nice games which I enjoyed playing.

That's a wrap.

My list was: Kommandant Irusk, Behemoth, Kovnik Grigorovich, Koldun Lord, War Dog, min IFP with UA, min WG with UA and 1x Rocketeer, and Widowmakers. I couldn't make full units because I won't have enough points. Frankly, full unit of WG deathstar at 35PC isn't as good if you take out the key model (Joe). Minimum IFP and minimu WG suit me better.
