thecapopriest Posted January 31, 2017 Report Share Posted January 31, 2017 This is a 50 point game played in the MaliPhoenix group at Games U. Gremlins vs. Resurrectionists Deployment: Standard Strategy: Head Hunter Schemes: Claim Jump, A Quick Murder, Tail 'Em, Dig Their Graves, and Leave Your Mark. Gremlin List: Ulix with Husbandry, Old Cranky, Old Major, Sammy Lacroix with Ulix's upgrade Huntin' Bow, Slop Hauler, Hog Whisperer, The Sow, and Gremlin Taxidermist. Soulstone Cache of 4. This list I really wanted to play the Ulix summoning list but with as many support models as I could fit. Normally most of my points would have been spent on the large pigs, Old Major, The Sow, and Gracie, to summon Piglets off of. I dropped Gracie so I could more easily put in the Hog Whisperer and the Taxidermist. This would also be my first time playing with Sammy with Ulix. Hunting Bow seemed like a solid choice to give her a good action of Shot in the Rear. Resurrectionists List: Yan Lo with Fortify The Spirit and Wronged Spirits, Soul Porter, Bete Noir, 3 Flesh Constructs, 2 Onryo, and Toshiro The Daimyo with Command The Graves. Soulstone Cache of 4. Gremlins win Deployment Flip and choose to make Resurrectionists deploy first and choose sides. Just to note this is a four foot by four foot board, so six inches all around the board is out of play. The piece of terrain that looks like big emeralds we played as if your model was completely on the base you get a positive twist to Cast action duels. Resurrectionists Deployment left to right: 3 Flesh Constructs in front of Toshiro the Daimyo, 2 Onryo, Yan Lo, Soul Porter, and Bete Noire.

I gave it another try after this game and it worked out much better remembering all the different positive twists I hand out. For now though I will be shelving my Gremlins as I have decided to start playing Resurrectionists. I will start to do battle reports with them once I have a decent amount painted up and ready to play. Like always I hope you enjoyed the battle report and look forward to any thoughts, criticisms or advice you may have. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Math Mathonwy Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 Thank you for the battle reports! Very high quality and I enjoy them a lot. You have such unorthodox lists (meaning both you and your opponents) that it's quite refreshing. Sad to see you switch sides, though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikodemus Posted February 7, 2017 Report Share Posted February 7, 2017 Lots of pretty pictures. I like! As for feedback, I prefer to know what schemes were chosen at the same times as you write crew lists. Makes things easier to follow in the actual turn to turn report. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been going back and forth on showing what the schemes are from the beginning or waiting to reveal them in the way that they where revealed during the game. I think from here on out I will just list the schemes at the beginning for clarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
