Hi everone
Just about to type a report, but here a short version right now.
All I will say is I have never laught so much in a tournament/game like I did today.
Round 1 - Iain Skinner, he slaughter me. How many 1's did my Long Fangs roll.
Also it good play Skinner as he use a lot of good trick/stuff that people rarely use if you know what I mean (with this being internet/fourms) & I learnt a lot from this game, also made a few mistake.
Also sorry Iain for Jaws of the World Wolf your warboss on turn 1, but I needed first blood. Good game, really enjoy it & learnt a lot from this which is one of the main things I like to take away from a game to learn & improve/for future ref. Like wise Skinner shown me a few bits of rules that people do miss out which is good & another reason for attend tournament to pick up these.
Round 2 - Joe with Marine's. As I said I never laught so much, this game was shocking for the both of us in term of dice, etc....
From a combat (Two my units vs Joe Marines) lasting from turn 2 to turn 5, then those that are alive make 98% of save's until it just the Rune Priest (was somthing like 35 Marines that shot, from Missile Launcher (made most my Going to ground saves) to bolter rapided fire)
Rune Priest get assauled by Scouts, not a single hit from eather of us, then follow turn the Rune Priest failed once more to hit only to get a power fist.
I belive all save by both me & Joe where made about 98% of save made. While our shooting & Combat was terrible.
Game 3 Nids
Image a Dreadnought vs a Trygon. Now this Trygon on four wounds (well took more but had reg/allow wounds back on 6). Image getting a Dreadnought close, fire that Plasma Cannon..... only for that Plasma Cannon to go back RIGHT ON TOP OF YOUR DREADNOUGHT.
That not even the tip of it. So have had luck on your side & not being destroyed.
Try charge, I got Wolf Tooth, we are both striken same time.
As said I have Wolf Tooth, I simple need a 3+ to hit...........
So fail that, Trygon blow me up on the 6 of tank damnge. Now that not even ended this, for my Dreadnought wounded the Trygon (needed a 6 to wound S3 vs T6). Yes out of all that, that what cause a wound on the Trygon
Me & my oppent really could not stop laught for a good 15 min's.
I not even talk about the rest of the game where my Rune Priest failed to hit with Livining Lighting despit need 2+.
I won the game in the end, but me & the oppent spent more time laught than play.
Overall three Brillaint games, despit two loss & one win. To be honsty like I said I never laught as much as I did today with the way the dice went. Joe will say him self about that combat & my Rune Priest.
But overall my main goal was the painting award & I can happily say I have won Counter Attack player chose twice/in a row.
I'll get my proper report up later on (dinner out now) & photos.
But want to say to all three oppents thanks & it the reason I enjoy tournaments & also to those who voted for me for painting wise. Work hard on my Space Wolves.
But yes I think I might need brand new dice after today, I really do.
