I was very happy with the way I played this game, somehow I managed to come up with a good plan and execute it. It was one of those games where things were not easy to achieve but they worked and I am glad you enjoyed the read. It is always important to me to show how these support troops can be vital to the success. Especially nowadays, where armies tend to have more and more characters there is less and less space for units like reavers. People prefer big cavalry buses and leave fast cavalry at home. <br /><br />On top of that we also played dreaded Watchtower scenario. Even modified the bonus points were huge but that worked well for me in the end as it balanced out the sacrifices I made to hold it. With pure battle points the margin of victory would have been way smaller.<br /><br />But taking objectives is part of the game so I was happy to keep it! <br /><br />Cheers!Swordmasterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09735639525894232458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3921669614910911724.post-87712328396436360642015-04-17T15:37:10.831+10:002015-04-17T15:37:10.831+10:00Hey Mr. Swordmaster!
I think you played this game...Hey Mr. Swordmaster!<br /><br />I think you played this game about as well as you could have. A main weakness of an MSU army is that it is easy to take VPs from them since smaller units are easier to remove. In this scenario however, these VPs could be offset by claiming the tower (1000VPs is a ridiculous amount) which allowed you the freedom to sacrifice and redirect knowing that the tower could more than make up for the loss of a few extra units. <br /><br />Some important points of the battle were the dragon princes avoiding the hell-cannon and the daemon prince being left out in the open. The daemon prince was in an open field in front of seaguard, sisters, and a bolt thrower which is a risky move. Perhaps he would have done better to take an extra turn to get the prince to the other flank where there were less threats. He still played a great game. <br /><br />You did great work with eagle and reaver redirects which is something I really look for in your battle reports because it is such an important skill to learn and you do it marvelously. This report is a great lesson in proper MSU play. <br /><br />Thanks for the report!<br />DanAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04880233343826942633noreply@blogger.com
