Cursed Dice.

Well on Tuesday gone I had my first game in the slow grow league. Menoth Vs. Cygnar, Mangled metal

The armies were


Menoth
pKreoss
Crusader
Vanquisher
Repenter

Cygnar
pStryker
Charger
Lancer
Ironclad

The fight lasted 7 turns. It also featured some of the worst dice rolls I have ever had (The steaming image on this dice would have featured frequently in my rolls). In one instance I had popped my feat had the whole Cygnar side on the floor, charged in my Crusader with 3 focus and basically did no damage to the Ironclad. I got so fixated on getting a kill that I exposed Kreoss and after finally killing the Ironclad Stryker was able to finish Kreoss off with a shot and some arcane bolts.

I have bought new dice , psychological I know but that's the second game where I have had a heavy warjack loaded with focus failing to do any real damage to a knocked down jack.

Key lessons for me.

  • If the plan goes wrong don't push on regardless, change tact and regroup.
  • Don't be afraid to be more mobile with my faster jacks.

No league games this Tuesday, the next ones will be the 21st. In the meantime I am slowly painting my Crusader. Its not pretty but I will keep going until I am happy with the scheme and then I can use it as a template for everything else.
