    Not too much to report here as I was teaching someone how to play but I like to track my games

    I tried to take an underpowered list but the Saurus absolutely rolled anything and everything. Partly per the 1.5 rules but also I think his list didn't have anything to combat it like an abomination.

    His shooting was fantastic and he has totally wiped out the Kroxigor by turn 2.

    The Troglodon would have taken down a unit of clan rats but the general with the fellblade got into him and make very short work.

    Aeontezin took on the rat ogres winning and breaking them. They rallied.

    The Saurus rolled the clan rats in the middle, then the grey seer, then the warlock and jezails then turn around to rear charge the rat ogres.

    How did he kill kroxigor? Only jezzails? Or magic missiles too?
    Did you tried saurus with spears or hand weapon?

    First turn 6 jezails did 5 wounds (despite hitting on a 5+). Fireball did a couple too. Second turn his shooting wasn't as good but his magic missiles (fireball and the Skaven signature) mopped them up.

    Yes I did take hand weapons and not spears. I think now the only reason to take spears is WYSIWYG.
