Yesterday I was back at my normal store, though this time, we had several new players. One was an old hand with a circle army, and another was a Khador newbie. The guy who taught us to play wanted to try out a tournament list of his, so he played against the Circle player, while another regular joined forces with the Khador newbie to battle against myself and the Cygnar player whose normally my opponent! Sadly we weren't only about halfway in when the store closed, so once again, I'll post highlights:
-We were playing Saeryn and Haley vs. pVlad and Zerkova. We won the first turn, and promptly slid to the right, trying to bring both our armies to bear against Zerkova while avoiding Vlad. Since I started on the right side, this mean Haley and Zerkova found themselves in the middle, dishing out and taking the worst of it!
-After so many games against Cygnar, it was crazy to play on a team with them! The Charger was just a devastating as I remember, and with a Journeyman Warcaster marshalling it, it had the full 3 focus every turn. It almost managed to take out Zerkova in one activation, and would have on average rolls
-Zerkova is a casting beast, able to target any units within her control and boosting the range of spells. Haley tried to move up so Temporal Barrier would get Zerkova and the 2 Kodiaks next to her, but this put her in range of Zerkova, who nearly took her out with a barrage of spells.
-The Seraph takes MVP, since after the Charger failed to take Zerkova down, it moved up and blew her to firey little bits. I'm still trying to get used to how powerful it is - its shooting has always been top notch, and the animus is incredible, but it can also mix it up well in melee.
We called the game a draw since Haley was about to get stomped and Zerkova had just been wrecked, while my army and the new Khador player's army untouched. Still I'm confident we would've gotten another turn out of Haley, which would have probably sealed the game in our favor!
