So I rolled control of watchtower but had no unit to fill it with.... maybe I should go back to two units of 20 hobos. I rolled 4(D3mulitwound) on me prophets weapon again(think 9/10 now). My prophet has done 0 wounds so far in CC, so I hate number 4. After my first turn: After turn 1: After turn 2: So the game was pretty much over as I had no unit left to grab the tower with here. After turn 3: After turn 4: After turn 5: After turn 6: Short recap: I started out with doing nothing in magic phase 1 and 2 and the same with shooting, misfires and scatters. Dispelscroll on first turn and no dice second turn failing first spell a 5+ fireball. one of those days... He rolled miscast on dreaded 13th turn 1 and two on my 25+BSB unit leaving me with without any group to grab the watchtower. He went 15 movements two times on HPA to tie up my archers 29” away. We kept on playing for the sheer fun of it and also to try out how all units would behave. His list was and all comments list without stormbanner. First time for me facing infatery with iron daemon. Kdaii Fireborn succeeded all their T teat till turn 6 where it failed and lost 3 wound leaving only 1 that crumbled to CR. The dwarfs on the iron daemon killed the grey seer! And the last fireball killed the HPA but all too late... Wonder if iron daemon/death shrieker can destroy the watchtower to make sure no one can hold it?

So other than having a bit of bad luck, it sounds like you didn't do all that bad! In the future, I might try to position your Fireborn a little more toward the center, so that even if they are chaffed up, they can still be in the thick of the fighting where they can do the most damage. So what was your opinion of the Iron Deamon?
