Summary
 
Well another fun game..when three formations of Termis turn up on front door, it was going to be tougher to win…We manage to make sure that the SM force paid for every cm they took..I was thinking it was going to be big lost, but it only ended begin 2 to 1..So not to bad..

Again, everyone though the list was interesting and again they thought this list would still struggled against some list, but do ok against others…
