So I got a game in against Stephen (Ring_of_Gyges) and his Warrior of Chaos army. I was pretty frightened of all his hard hitting Knights and Chariots, but, as has become habit with my Eshin, I negated some of his abilities by getting off a first turn charge with my Skitterleaping Master Assassin. Queetik took an Exalted Champion on Disc of Tzeentch in the side and put 14 wounds on him. I then pursued, and would have pursued into a unit of Maurauders with his general (Lord level mage), but they fled in an attempt to protect the general. Queetik would have then charged into the side of one of his chariots, but instead of taking the charge and getting destroyed (S7+ attack auto-destroy chariots), he fled with his chariot, thinking that the damage it did to the rest of his units would be negligible. Well, as he fled down his battle line, he killed 7 Maurauders from one unit, 6 from another, put 2 wounds on his 2nd chariot, and completely destroyed a unit of hounds. To top it all off, he ended up in difficult terrain, and took 6 wounds. *POOF* Dead chariot.
So... a first turn charge by Queetik turns into a dead Exalted Champion on Disc of Tzeentch, 13 dead Maurauders, 5 dead Hounds, and a dead Chariot. Not bad.
I then proceeded to shoot up his Knights and 2nd Chariot with my Jezzails and Ratling Guns. Luck and fortune were on my side this game, and not really on Ring's. One turn, when shooting with my ratling guns, I got 10 and then 11 shots when only rolling two dice each. That's pretty mean.
After all was said and done, I got the massacre and that was that. It was an enjoyable game for me, but I don't think the same can be said for Stephen.
Amazingly, I'm at the top of the leaderboard in our league. CRAZY!
