WTC - 100 games to go!

Much like my good pal Tzarkahn, I've been selected to take part in the WTC as a member of Team Ireland.

As part of our practice initiative, we aim to finish off 100 games (at least!) before the WTC. That means between 1st April 2015 and 18th September (170 days) I need to average around 4 games a week.

I'll be updating here and via the official PP forums on my Legion thread, here. Oh, and in case you didn't guess, I play dragons!

Game 1/100
Absylonia2 Vs Makeda2
Opponent: Keith Boardman
Scenario: Incoming

List:
Absylonia, Daughter of Everblight (*5pts)
* Raek (4pts)
* Raek (4pts)
* Shredder (2pts)
* Carnivean (11pts)
* Ravagore (10pts)
* Scythean (9pts)
* Seraph (8pts)
Blighted Nyss Shepherd (1pts)
Succubus (2pts)
The Forsaken (2pts)
The Forsaken (2pts)

Game:

Long threat vs long threat. Keith came a little too far forward and allowed me to trigger Conferred Rage off some Nihilators. Feat turn happened and the Bronzeback and Molik dropped. Some poor fury management saw his Gladiator frenzy and he doesn't kill any toys. 2 Raek headbutts later and Makeda's in the dirt as my Carnivean bites her head off.

Assassination WIN!

Game 2/100
Absylonia2 Vs Vyros2
Opponent: Mark Hayes
Scenario: Close Quarters

List:
Absylonia, Daughter of Everblight (*5pts)
* Raek (4pts)
* Raek (4pts)
* Shredder (2pts)
* Carnivean (11pts)
* Ravagore (10pts)
* Scythean (9pts)
* Seraph (8pts)
Blighted Nyss Shepherd (1pts)
Succubus (2pts)
The Forsaken (2pts)
The Forsaken (2pts)

Game:

This was a very cagey game which would all be decided on a few swings. Could I get Imperatus in exchange for only a single Heavy? Could Mark deliver Imperatus before I took him?

We jostled for a bit, I waited out his feat killing 0 models (setting 2 Sentinels on Fire). He committed first killing a Raek that was threatening his flag. I'd left my Carnivean in position to threaten whatever killed the Raek. He put Vyros just out of the killbox in line with his flag.

A push, a SlipStream and a SPD 8 Carnivean is 16" of threat. Vyros was 15.5" away. Dirt nap for the horse lord. Very tense game that ended with 4 total models dead: A Raek, 2 Sentinels and Vyros himself.

Assassination WIN!

Game 3/100
Absylonia2 Vs Doomshaper2
Opponent: Patrick Long
Scenario: Destruction

List:
Absylonia, Daughter of Everblight (*5pts)
* Raek (4pts)
* Raek (4pts)
* Shredder (2pts)
* Carnivean (11pts)
* Ravagore (10pts)
* Scythean (9pts)
* Seraph (8pts)
Blighted Nyss Shepherd (1pts)
Succubus (2pts)
The Forsaken (2pts)
The Forsaken (2pts)

Game:

Another game of threat ranges - I had the longer threat on paper, but Mulg was a big problem as always. Started off well with Alten Ashley breaking to Pat's own Maximus. Then his Fennblades broke to Absylonia. I slaughtered Maximus, Alten, his Objective and half his Fenns without feating and left everything 13"+ away from Mulg... except my objective.

Mulg gets Raged, Feated on and Wild Aggression. Gets my objective in reach, fluffs the first damage roll and eats it with a bought attack. Goads into reach on Absylonia who's on 2 transfers! Ruh'roh! He's got 4 attaeks left and I'm pretty sure he's going to do it. First two connect and force transfers (2d6+6 for damage!) - third one connects, and an average damage roll sees Absylonia take 13 damage. The last attack comes up... 8. Aby lives!

From here it's pretty elementary as his whole turn has set up around this assassination and Aby doesn't mess about. 2 Forsaken bombs knock Mulg down to half, before Aby feats, Siphons all his Fury and finishes him off. My Carnivean goes into an Earthborn blocking the path to Doomshaper and kills him. A Raek hops over the Carnivean to headbutt Doomy and a flying Scythean puts him in the dirt.

Assassination WIN!
