Summary
Hmm..Talk about lose focus. I was doing OK and I still believe killing portals are the way to go. As Trent said once I got my beach head and you open your deployment area up, I was in. Other wise the bloody scout screens going to be a real pain in the ass to any force that uses teleport a lot.
I must also say that the engagements went the Necron way 5 to 2..
Changes made to the Alaitoc Ranger Warhost: They did want I expect from Rangers. The main concern is whether they have upgrade and the points cost added
Added War Walker Warhost: Like all LV they do come with their disadvantage, and advantages. Again it weather they need to have upgrades and the points cost added
Formation change on Nightwings and points cost: They seem to work fine, in the last two games. The points cost is the main factor 225, more testing is needed.
Formation change on Phoenix Bombers and points cost: They seem to work fine, in the last two games. The points cost is the main factor 275, more testing is needed.
Phoenix Bombers had stat change on BP weapon: This seams to be working, although stress testing is needed.
Pathfinders: They didn’t do much tonight..
Regards
Greg
