@UD - many thanks for the game. Yon feora and that thrice accursed bomb-lobber certainly gave my chaps a hard time. I think at one point my entire army bar the slayer was on fire
it's pretty hard to counter, too, unless you have some good long range shooting ability. I reckon you should do fine at the tourney.
@dlord - and thank you for the game, too. That was my first time up against a colossal* and it was funner than I had expected. While it's certainly hard to kill**, it's by no means a game breaker, unlike my seeming inability to follow through on what would've been a perfectly set up caster kill. Twice
still, many thanks to both of you for a fun day of warmachine
*@all - this was by prior arrangement. He didn't just plank the thing down on the table with am evil cackle or owt.
**@all - by means of a slayer, who, thanks to a poorly judged charge by dlord was able to charge in himself and punch in the stormthingy's kneecaps. Sadly, the colossal seemed to take this personally, as in the next round of fighting he pulled both the slayer's arms off and threw the remains at Deryliss, unsurprisingly killing him. Still, after some hasty repairs by Mortenbra, the plucky young slayer was quickly back into the fray, closely followed this time by the Withershadow Combine. Between them they did a right number on the collosal, but it stayed standing. Dlord then sorted out the combine with an ogrun bodyguard and his master, and it fell to the deathjack to finally punch the collosal's ticket for the last time. So, aye - not easy, but doable
! But your guys were no pushovers, themselves - even while burning, you managed to get that Flea Warjack right up and into Close Combat with my caster - that could easily have been the end of the game. And your Deathjack took down most of my heavy hitters in one round, with a little help from his friends. If I hadn't made that lucky hit with my Repenter, he would have been up and fully functioning again the next round, I guess. That is one scary hunk of metal
