Yang with Myrtenmeister - littlewingmod again. She’ll probably show up a lot here... what with us being SOs and all.
I haven't been posting as much lately. My work schedule changed, and I work in the secure PCI compliant room, so I can't have my phone in there anymore.
But the important update is that Kate and I put in an offer on a house. And it got accepted! So we may be moving soon.
We're really excited, and very nervous right now. But this means big things for us! Keep your fingers crossed!
So, October 18th marks my 4th Anniversary with littlewingmod, the love of my life and the best thing to ever happen to me. So, we're going camping this weekend to celebrate (because it's gonna be gorgeous and New England October weather gets a bit dodgy around the middle).
As such, I'll be unable to watch the new LoK episode or paint anything or play Warmachine. But I think we're bringing Magic the Gathering cards, which I haven't played in FOREVER. Should be fun.
I hope all of you guys have a wonderful weekend! Be safe.
So Kate popped the question! Shitty picture, but the ring is a parrot sitting on a branch. It's gorgeous and one of a kind. Oh man, I'm so happy. I love her so much. Now I need to plan the wedding... oh man.
The second of two games I played over the weekend, this one against Littlewingmod! Yes, Kate has been playing more lately, and recently picked up a few pieces. She also sat down with Jon to create a 35 and 50 point list. What they came up with was pretty good. This game was really fun.
Lists!

2 Battle engines on the table? Yes. A full unit of Stealth on Kate's side? Also yes.
Scenario was Into the Breach. 1 Flag, 1 Zone. 5 to win. yada yada. I scored a whole 1 point the whole game. This was an attrition game. Through and through.
So, Kate declared Prey on the Daughters of the flame. I though this was a sound choice, since they were the smaller unit, and more likely to be within 10 inches sooner.
I went first. Everything ran. Nicia went in an extreme Flanking maneuver up the right side of the board, which had a box of walls and a tower for her to hide behind and set up for a guerrilla run on the trackers. Errants came up the middle, Reckoner and the VoJ came up on the left flank towards the zone. Choir came up behind the Reckoner and sang no-shooty.
The Book and Kreoss came up behind the errants into some rough terrain and game out buffs and said no knock-down.
I forgot to activate the daughters this turn. No. Seriously. I forgot. herp. Honestly, this was for the better.
Bottom turn 1, Things activated and ran. Movhana scooched up and cast buffs. The Fulcrum came up across the Voj and the Zone, while the stalker was deployed across from the daughters and the flag. Tharns came up the middle a ways and started throwing at the forward Errants. Killed a whole one.
oooooooh... I activated Doors of Judgment, took 3 points of damage, and walked the errant within 5 inches of Nuala. BOOM HEADSHOT! Nuala is off the board and out of my hair for the rest of the game. Bwah ha ha. I felt accomplished. Kate was sad. Brand new piece, and she wasn't able to do anything cool.
The stalker... came around to the closer corner of the building to scare Nicia away. Fortunately I was well enough away that he wasn't going to swat her that turn.
Skinwalkers ran up and threatened errants. I was feeling really good about killing Nuala so early. I had not expected that.
Oh, and the Grove moved too. towards the zone.
Top of two.
Daughters moved this turn! Not far, only about 3 inches, I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to be hit too hard with an alpha strike. Nicia came back around the other side of the building, now on the side closest to me, chilling in cover at def 20.
Book I think gave fire to the errants? We both forgot fire the next turn so it didn't matter.
Errants moved up and took some shots at Skinwalkers and Bloodtrackers, while the left-hand ones tried to gum up some charge lanes as best they could to keep the trackers off the daughters.
Put some damage on the skinwalkers. Woops. They have 8 boxes, not five like had been in my brain the whole time. Now they're faster, and will heal next turn. Oh boy.
VoJ activates, Hits something with his gun... can't quite remember if it was the grove or a stalker. not important.
Reckoner took a shot at the grove I think, hit it, did low damage.
Pass turn and wait to accept the charge. My lines are pretty well set to minimize damage at this point.
Bottom of 2. Kate takes the alpha strike. Her tharns advance (note: not charge) into the daughters to make thrown javelin attacks, and kill 2. Also kill a errant or two, but nothing that I'm in range for DoJ for, and I wanted to make sure I got an optimum use of it. Fulcrum starts trying to pummel infantry, and ends up oly killing a whole 1 Errant. I DoJ this one to take a shot at Morvhana because yes. failed to connect though. Whatevs yo.
I'm feeling really good right now. Stalker comes closer to the trackers, still in the back though. I felt so bad for Kate right then, such a bad dice turn. But I felt great!
Top of 3: FEAT. Kreoss moved up and feated. I had every single piece in my army under the feat zone. Oh man, it was brutal.
Nicia placed herself perfectly to kill 3 tharns on her own. Failed to hit anything on her quick-work attack. That's ok. She then retreated back behind the wall to safety. I felt good about that.
Daughters killed the remainder of the unit. Oh, and as a bonus, because of P+S or anatomical precision, I didn't even have to roll dice. I've never seen the daughters perform that well for me. I was in heaven. Kate looked very displeased with me.
Put some decent damage into the skin walkers, but failed to kill any with errants. Retailiatory strikes only killed 1 Errant. Dice were just not on Kate's side.
Reckoner killed a stalker. And I'm pretty sure the grove died this turn. I was pretty damned pleased with this turn of events.
Still no points scored.
Bottom of 3: Morvhana was not a happy camper right now. She feats. Stalker charges a daughter of the flame and utterly fails to hit. Poor guy. Skinwalkers heal from the upkeep spell on them the entire time, negating much of what happened. They shred through some errants. one of them gets DoJ'd and gets more damage on a stalker, then dies forever. Fulcrum takes out half the choir and... they don't make their command check. I am NOT a happy duck at that moment. Then the skinwalkers shred errants. like... 4 of them and two more daughters. They ALSO fail their command check. Crap. There are not many errants left right now. 4 including the standard bearer? the Senny is fine fortunately. Between forests everywhere that do damage, I'm not looking good.
Top of 4
I have to put the hurt on Morvhanna. She had boatloads of fury to transfer though... but only 1 beats. My mind starts working. dangerous thing.
Reckoner shoots Morvhana, and gets 13 damage in that gets transferred to the stalker. Yes. Good.
He's not looking good. Kreoss has this fancy thing that does armor piercing. CHARGE. Kills the stalker. Yes. good. Nicia moves back towards the Kreoss afterwards to scare attackers away. Senny tries to charge between two skinwalkers at Morvhana now that she has no beast to transfer to. No dice. Get smacked by a skinwalker, sacs the standard bearer and is knocked down.
Reckoner swats the fulcrum, and the skinwalkers take damage from the VoJ's admonisher. I finally kill another one. 2+alpha left.
Bottom of 4
Morvhana's in a tough spot right now. But Kreoss is standing right nest to a daughter of the flame. So she casts influence a bunch of times to have the daughter attach him. She missed every attack. Skin walkers failed to do anything.
Top of 5.
2 daughters and Nicia bring it home. Done.
Putting the stalker on that edge, I can't decide if that was wise or not? Reckoner didn't do much, but it probably would have been beneficial to kill the VoJ? I dunno.
Oh man. VoJ and Nicia. I was super happy with both of them. So good. Especially the VoJ. It does everything. It slices, it dices, it delievers divine wrath to my enemies. I will play it all the time now. Oh man.
So yeah. There's that. I thought that was a fun game that really came down to me doing better on attrition, mostly because Kate got diced out of everything important.
Until next time, may Menoth favor you, and smite the non believers!
