THE PLAN

Lost And The Damned: Since I had the activation count, I through I would push hard and try and trap the Siam-Hann Craftworld into a small space were their speed would be cancelled out and my weight of numbers would come into play more..

Siam-Hann Craftworld: Hmmmm well I guess I will need to make sure I don't get cornered and clipping assaults are the order of the day.

The KHORNE ASSAULT ENGINES get BM for support failed assault(Photo2).The WILD RIDER CLAN WARHOST(Large), consolidates back beside the woods(Photo3).The broken NURGLE PLAGUE TOWERs and 2 STIGMATUS COVEN, flees back behind the hill too, on the other side(Photo4)(we realised that we had turned over the plague tower in Photo2 and so have shown it here)….I was very, very lucky to get Two Critical on the PLAGUE TOWER, which help my cause..other wise I would have been stuffed…

Summary
 
Ok that's the second game in a week that has ended by turn 2..I must say i was very, very lucky to win the hill engagement. The Lost And The Damned player stated later he was put the formation there as bait and wanted me to assault it, since he would have the numbers, but also, if he gotten second turn and it was still there, then it would have allowed him to push forward and engage on his terms..Yeah there may have been some truth in that. I was also lucky with the LatD not making rally rolls..Over all I find the WILD RIDER CLAN WARHOST do their jobs, but if you don't make your saves then you will find they break pretty quickly…Any ways hoping to do another game using the LatD soon…
