Battle of Hippolyta

 

On Friday the 5/12/2013, we manage to do a 8000 points aside battle. Start time was late, since we had to wait for someone and deployment was slow…… Three turns were done, with a win to the Scions of Iron…

Since it was a large battle and there was four players, we allowed each player two activations. So if the first player failed his first activation it went to his sub-commander. So the if he failed it pass to the other side. So this would allow the Scions of Iron a max of four activations and the Eldar six if they wanted too.
