    Summary

  • Another interesting game..We used the same List and change the terrain around. If it had gone to turn 4, then the out come may have been different..onto other things..

    • 3+, well a interesting idea…. and one that make’s taking assaults a nature choice, with the two leaders and the extra MW attack. these guys should really earn their keep, if the right targets are chosen…
    • Again having the all information in one PDF would be great too..
    • I have enjoyed facing the Iron Hands and look forward to more testing…

    Regards

    Greg
