    Summary
     

    If I had manage to stop those Knights getting into my side of the table, then I would have won.. next time..

    1) The expert riding rule- Ok it was nice to have this today, manage a few saves. 

    2) Wind riders- my concern have not change from last game, about having a all viper formation as scouts.

    3) Fire prism changes, free upgrade and stat changes- Today they had a better day and manage to gets some kills in before dying, although, that's was more my fault for not moving them further back after shooting.

     

    4) SR went from 3 to 4- Well that didn't help me much today, but i think its the right move. 

    Will be taking the same list out gain on Thursday, I ‘m hoping..

     
    Regards
    Greg
