The game:
Well, i played the dogs of war and before the game started i recommended Galrauch's army maybe drop something for a bsb (since there are a lot of troll checks, galrauch has a check, and the hellcannon) but he politely declined. Obviously a shrewd move as no checks failed the entire game!!!!
My shooting did a couple of wounds here and there but nothing incredible.
Highlights....
Galrauch...used magic missiles to murder a unit of stradiots . My opponent kept him out of harms way for the most part. He did munch on the duellists and the other unit of stradiots.
Throgg...was with the unit of 8 trolls and ended up killing the archers and then attacking the depleted unit of paymaster bodyguards. They were stubborn and he slowly grinded them away to a man until the wizard was left, and then he died as well.
Unit of 9 trolls...the paymaster's bodyguard killed them but took some heavy casualties, which did them in against Throgg
Unit of 5 warhounds....murdered, brutally and early by the Rhinox Riders
9 chaos Ogres....fought the general with 50 pikemen. Man those pikemen....lots of attacks, lots of nothing with their S3. The Ogres eventually died to a man (to an Ogre?) But they just kept killing the pikemen....then the ogre's buddies joined the party
Chimera....flew over the Ogre/Pikemen battle, and then rear charged the pikemen and helped speed up their demise
Giant....charged the Dwarves early, took a few wounds but won combat. Dwarves steadfast on a 9 and....fail. giant chases them off the board, then reforms and charges in the flank of the pikemen to pile on the slaughter there
Chaos spawn #1....the rhinox riders overran into the spawn and brutally killed it
Chaos Spawn #2....took some wounds to shooting, charged into the duellists and suprisingly was killed by them only doing 2 wounds
Hellcannon....shot the crossbowmen to death, killed a rhinox rider, but eventually the riders made it to the hellcannon and killed it.
Dogs of War
Mercenary Genral.....what a hero (figuratively speaking, literally a lord) after the pikemen were eliminated, he held on to survive 3 rounds vs a chimera and the giant. The game ended with them still in the grips of battle
Wizard....as discussed killed by Throgg and the boyz. His spells kept the pikemen going longer than they should of
Paymaster.....dead by Throgg
Dwarf....as mentioned killed by giant
Pikemen....human punching bags.
Bowmen....crushed by throgg
Crossbows....hellcannoned to death
Stradiots and duellists...Galrauch ate for lunch
Paymasters Bodyguards....beasts(figuratively), should of given them Full plate armour, but they did admirable
Dwarves....as mentioned, giant ran them over
Ribault....misfire machine
Rhinox Riders.....beasts (literally) they took care of the hellcannon, but maybe i should of had them go after Throgg
All in all fun game, but I got massacred. My general still being alive is a minor miracle considering all the attacks and thunderstomps being directed against him. Fun times
