This time I wanted to get the best out of Kaya's ability to teleport my Warbeasts back to her.
As Matthias' army was very shooty I camped in the forest in the center of the table and was able to contest the flag while also being in concealment. And my Stalkers were stealthed due to their Prowl ability.
This forest was a big tactical advantage and I was able to damage and wreck Warjack after Warjack until Matthias had to try to assasinate Kaya.
I was happy that I was able to play my army to its strength, but I think Matthias deserves a revenge with a table setup that is not so favourable for me.
Matthias (Cygnar)
This game sucked...
The worst part was the position of the wood - the Wolves with Prowl gained Stealth there and were at the same time contesting the center flag... great...
Then I paid not enough attention... on turn 2 I unintentionally fired into the melee between the Firefly and the Wolf Riders, as I did not consider the engagement range of the Firefly before shooting...
The Firefly really suffered from me not paying attention. When I moved the 'jack back one turn later, I thought the Wolf Riders with their spears had Reach... should not have thought but read army cards... The free strikes wrecked the light Warjack. In hindsight this was a good move (getting it killed) as Nemo was then able to obliterate that circle flank with one spell.
My bad luck continued, as the Stones shifted the Warp Wolf just into range of the Charger controlling the flag allowing the 'beast to wreck the 'jack - 1mm less placement range and the Charger would have been save - and I would probably have scored one more CP.
The game ended with bad luck: My desperate last ditch assassination run needed 3 boosted attack rolls vs 11 - only one hit... from a statistical point of view I would not have won the game, but with two hits and the resulting damage I would have felt much closer to winning...
The good thing about this game is me having killed the War Wolf again without him having contributed anything to the game - and that with blast damage - continued proof of uselessness :-)
