This time I took some pictures. Cheesy pictures and one time I forgot it, but pictures. I will improve in my next reports.

Battle Report 05.04.2017

Flank, Head Hunter
Claim Jump, Accusation, Eliminate the Leadership, Hunting Party, Leave your Mark

Today I played against a Ben. We know each other for a long time and play against each other very regular. He is a very good and an even nicer player and games against him are always fun. At the moment he is working on his Yan Lo Crew and so he played Ironsides this time.

Arcanists: (Leave your Mark, Hunting Party)

• Ironsides (Imbued Protection, Frontline Leadership, Warding Runes) 7 SS
• Miss Step (Imbued Energies)
• Angelica (Practiced Production)
• Oxfordian Mage (Temporary Shielding, Doom Ward)
• Oxfordian Mage (Temporary Shielding, Blood Wad)
• Oxfordian Mage (Temporary Shielding, Well-Rehearsed)
• Arcane Effigy
• Malifaux Raptor

Outcast: (Hunting Party, Claim Jump)

• Leveticus (Desolate Soul, Pariah of Iron, Oathkeeper) 6 SS

• Rusty Alice (Oathkeeper, I Pay Better)

• Joss (Oathkeeper, The Bigger They Are)

• Hans (Advanced Sight)

• Winged Plague

• Necropunk

• 2x Hollow Waif

Deployment:

I had to deploy first.

 

Turn 1

I won the flip for Initiative and let Ben go first. Angelica took her free walk action.

• 1^st activation AC: The Raptor buried itself.

• 1^st activation OC: The Necropunk double walk and leaped towards the left corner.

• 2^nd activation AC: Effigy walked once, placed a scheme marker and put his condition to Ironsides.

• 2^nd activation OC: The scheme marker remembered me on Practiced Production so Hans took his chance and shot Angelica twice with focus (I pay better + his (0) action, hitting her both times for moderate damage which killed her. (Not the best idea because of the strat…

• 3^rd activation AC: The red mage used his cast to push Miss Step and Ironsides both 4” towards me, dealing weak damage to both in the process.

• 3^rd activation OC: First Waif double walked.

• 4^th activation AC: Blue mage walked twice.

• 4^th activation OC: Second Waif walked a bit.

• 5^th activation AC: The green mage prepared to pick up Angelicas head next turn.

• 5^th activation OC: Levi dropped Oath Keeper, walked twice and took a focus plus a normal shot against the effigy since I used my only severe to hit Angelica with Hans. But hitting both times was still enough to kill the little guy. (I definitely was too greedy at this point, because I handed Ben too many Head Hunter VP’s….) Then he turned into a Waif.

• 6^th activation AC: Because of Hans and Rusty, Miss Step was not able to charge anything and so she just went into position behind some trees.

• 6^th activation OC: Winged Plague was a bit afraid of her and double walked towards the other flank.

• 7^th activation AC: Ironsides had the same problem as Missy and just walked into a good position for the next turn.

• 7^th activation OC: Rusty just took a focused shot at Toni.

• 8^th activation OC: Joss dropped Oathkeeper and charged Toni for some damage and ended the charge move within 1” of her.

• 9^th activation OC: Slow Waif walked once.

Turn 2

After using a SS I still lost initiative and Ben went first.

• 1^st activation AC: Miss Step dropped Fast Upgrade, nimbled around the trees, laid down a scheme marker and then charged Joss und hit him 2 times for 7 damage (severe once) after armor.

• 1^st activation OC: Joss, feeling the life leaving his body swung his fist on Ironsides, dealing 2 damage after a severe prevention flip, but paralyzes her in the progress.

• 2^nd activation AC: At this point Ben was a bit despaired and I helped him a bit. (Told him that if he moves the Ward Mage within 10” of Toni, she would lose her paralyze, because of the immunity). And so he did.

• 2^nd activation OC: Now it was time to help myself. So Alice dropped the Oathkeeper, walked once and charged the Raptor to death, turning it into an Abomination.

• 3^rd activation AC: Ironsides used her freshly gain freedom to attack Joss. But with armor 2 and using 3 SS he only took 1 damage and gained reactivate.

• 3^rd activation OC: Joss took his chance to deal 6 damage on Missy.

• 4^th activation AC: Second Mage took a head.

• 4^th activation OC: Necropunk walked, leaped and but a scheme marker in the left corner.

• 5^th activation AC: Last Mage used furious casting to deal 3 to Hans.

• 5^th activation OC: Levi walked once, ported to the Raptor-Abo, took a focus hit against Missy for 8 damage and then walked once.

• 6^th activation OC: Plague was half an inch too far away from the center to put down the needed scheme marker so it only double walks.

• 7^th activation OC: Hans was able to pick up a Head.

• 8^th and 9^th activation OC: Waifs walked around a bit.

Ben scored Leave your Mark and Head Hunter, I scored Hunting Party and Head Hunter 2-2.

We sadly forgot to take pictures at this stage…. sorry

Turn 3

Ben won initiative and went first.

• 1^st activation AC: Ironsides took her chance, ported to Hans, killed him, took one of the other Heads and then “lured” the Winged Plague twice by hitting the trigger. But the Plague was still too far away to punch her.

• 1^st activation OC: Levi used the chance of being unengaged from Toni, to kill the blue Mage, walk and then turn into a Waif engaging the red Mage.

• 2^nd activation AC: The red mage took his (0) against the Waif, dealing 1 damage and then successfully disengaged from her.

• 2^nd activation OC: One Waif walked around somewhere.

• 3^rd activation AC: Green Mage shot the Plague once, hitting the RJ (Hunting Party -_-) on damage and then walked towards the Necropunk.

• 3^rd activation OC: Necropunk places a second Scheme marker in a save spot.

• 4^th activation OC: Rusty charged Ironsides, hitting her once.

• 5^th and 6^th activation OC: Other Waifs walked around a bit.

Ben scored Head Hunter plus Hunting Party and I scored Hunting party and Claim Jump 4-4.

Turn 4

Ben won initiative again…. and went first.

• 1^st activation AC: Ironsides took her chance again and killed Levi before he was able to activate and then hit Alice once.

• 1^st activation OC: Waif at the left corner double walked.

• 2^nd activation AC: The red mage took his (0) against the Waif, missing, disengaged and took another head.

• 2^nd activation OC: Waif in the north walked towards Alice.

• 3^rd activation AC: Green Mage took a focused shot on the Necropunk dealing 2 damage.

• 3^rd activation OC: Necropunk places a Scheme marker but was not able to place a second because I am stupid and misplaced him last turn.

• 4^th activation OC: Rusty tried disengaging once (would have scored me Claim Jump) but failed and then just moved towards the Waif within the engagement range.

Ben scored Head Hunter and I scored Hunting Party 5-5.

Turn 5

Luckily I won initiative this time.

• 1^st activation OC: Levi who popped out in base contact with a Head at the end of the last turn, took it and then double walked to engage Ironsides.

• 1^st activation AC: Ironsides tried really hard, killed Alice and hurt Levi bad, but was not able to get a Head marker.

• 2^nd activation OC: Last Waif walked in safety.

• 2^nd activation OC: Red Mage could do nothing.

• 3^rd activation AC: Necropunk put down a second Scheme marker.

• 3^rd activation OC: Green Mage walked twice to deny Claim Jump.

I scored Head Hunter 6-5 for Outcasts.

Wow that was a close game. We both did some mistakes and I was trying Joss and Plague for the first time, but in the end I learned a lot from the game.
