I kind of pride myself on taking unorthodox lists so I am especially happy with my win today. It was only a field of 10, but there were several real strong opponents there. My list was: Slann – Lore of Light Focus of Mystery Foused Rumination Higher State Cupped Hands Plaque of Protection BSB Standard of Discipline Skink Priest Dispel Scroll Saurus Warriors with Spears x25 Champion Musician Standard Bearer Skinks x10 Musician Standard Bearer Brave Skinks x10 Musician Standard Bearer Brave Skink Skirmishers x10 Brave Kroxigors x6 Kroxigors x6 Kroxigors x6 Salamander Extra Handler I know, where are the chamos and temple guard and why only one salamander and what is the deal with all those kroxigor. Is he really running ranked skinks with full command??? Yeah, I did all that First round I matched up against a Demon list with two flamer units a unit of nurgling scouts a bloodthirster and a horder of like 40something bloodletters with skulltaker on jugg and a herald bsb on jugg. Oh yeah, he also had loremaster life Pretty nasty list overall I would say. I was lucky this was battle for the pass though and I was able to whittle away on his guys some with my shooting as they came across and just give him some throwaway units. Also, the way they did terrain made it hard for games to finish as they wanted us to reset it every game, so luckily for me this game we timed out before his horde could hit me. I would have needed good magic to take on that beast. I did get his flamers between shooting and combat as well as his nurglings and my one unit of krox was able to drop his bloodthirster thanks to W10 I10, ASF and +1 attack! I ended up getting the major victory for 16pts. Second round I played my buddy Nicol that I came with. He is the second highests HE general in the US and will probably be number one after Adepticon results are up. He was playing a heavy shooting army that I played on Thursday night and deleted all but his BSB, so I was hoping for a repeat, but I was pretty sure I wouldn't get that lucky again. I ended up getting a major victory in this one, and might of pulled off a massacre if I would have made a couple more charges on the last turn, but I knew I was up on pts and didn't gamble on getting good winds of magic to dominate his swordmasters. Last round I played Bretts and it was a solid gory blood fest. The roll that really got me the win was holding with my one unit of krox on a rerollable 3. I failed the first one and got the second one. The standard of discipline saved the day again. I checked and coldblooded rerollable 3 is a 35.8 percent chance, so I wasn't even super lucky I also got the combat reform off on the 3 and then got some more charges and started tearing things up with speed of battle. He also helped me out a lot in this game by sucking his mage into the warp first turn, but the irrisistable combat ended up killing 3 krox and 11 saurs when it finally hit. This was another major victory, so the three major victory pts and solid paint scores got me the best overall! Nicol tied for best painting too. I got 50 dollars worth of GW stuff so I picked up two state troop boxes. It was a great time and I am thinking about ardboys next weekend.
You killed a Bloodthirster with Krox? Damn, haha, that's quite the achievement! Even with the magic, congrats on the win!
