Note: Spoke to my opponent about allowing WRAITHLORD TROUPE and GUARDIAN to garrison, after explaining I had made a mistake in the last game..He was fine with it and want to see if it would make a real difference and so did I…

Summary
Well that went well, not..Turn 1 start well enough, but I need to get turn two and yep, I didn't get it.. Not winning key engagements, meant I was on the back foot and on top of that having critical done on all three titans, spelt their doom.. Yes I was aggressive and though it better to place BM’s on the Knight formation to make it harder to activate. I should have also deployed closer together, but I didn't want to get cornered and have no room to move as such..
Over all I feel the Phantom needs to have the power fist by default, to give it a boost..…
Tremor Cannon did it job OK, but more testing is needed..
The single Revenant Titan restriction could be more like the Guardians restriction set at 1 for every 1500 points.
List building is fairly straight forward with the 1 to 3 restriction.
The garrisoning of the WRAITHLORD TROUPE and GUARDIAN, was interesting.My opponent thought it made no difference and with the Fir list gave some other options on garrisoning..
Regards
Greg
