Summary
 
Another fun game and it makes 147 games for the year, although by the time you read this it will well past 2016…That Mathew for fun game..

Anyways on to the others points..

Dropped the rubric rule: In this game it meant I could get to a objective marker quick, but in the game were we have had the rule, it has made little difference having it. So few more games to test..

AHRIMAN'S CHOSEN: Ok this guy was wiped from the board and it took a bit to do so..You cant stick him out front and not expect him to be shoot to pieces..

SCARAB OCCULT: This guys did ok, and manage to wiped a formation off the board..This is the other formation I would tweak and try and get a Daemon prince into the formation.

Till next time…

 
Regards
Greg
