Short summary: Battleline scenario. I took first turn. I had a pretty good first turn. Took the flanks. Iron rust on main orc unit. Got rid of dispelling scroll on a high turn to gold roll. Hellcanon killed a lot with a direct hit on same main orc unit with bsb and shaman general. His first turn he animosity moved my right flank orcs into charge range charging and failing charge on wolves. charged the wolf on my left flank with his wolf riders killing them and charged forward into skull crushers. Also charged with his big black orc into skull crushers. Skullcrushers won massively. Killing 10 black orcs and all the wolves. A lot of high roles for the crushers! Magic irresistible high foot of gork stomping total of 4 knights in two stomps. The miscast table did take his last 3 dice. Rocklobbers had direct hit (both) on general on a disc. First missed on a one to wound the second hit and I missed on a two ward save roll. Multiple wounds rolled a 5. General gone and probably could have conceded here. But it took one more turn before I understood how bad it is playing without mage when the uncontested foot of Gork flying everywhere. Turn two: WoC Did some charges. Failed with knights in wolf chariot. Warriors charged wolfed in the way. BSB charged main orc unit. Hound charged Snotling wagon. Warriors killed wolves. Crushers made jam out of black orcs that fled and were overrun. Hounds did two wounds on Snotling. Bsb challenged champion and over killed him. Stood ground on LD test. Miscast on Hellcanon that ate all handlers and a monster reaction dice on two. No more shots and must charge. Orcs Charged wolves with, chariot and Snotling wagon I fled with knights charged by orcs leaving orc also charging wolves. Magic rolled high foot of gork killing 1 crusher on first and 13 warriors on second. Here I conceded as it started to get late and didn't want to witness more massacres by the war machines.

Sorry, brother! But you're getting closer and closer to beating this guy! All this going to take is for him to miss once with his Rock Lobbas! Then you'll be into his ranks where you'll decimate him! Just look at what 3 Skull crushers did to his most elite infantry unit!
Next time you might need to Target his war machines with your Hellcannon first?
I know it's frustrating, but stay the course! You're going to get there! We all believe in you and know you can do this! We've got your back, brother!
By the way, i think you could've probably still won this game if you had played it out. He can't beat you in combat. The ONLY thing he had left you give you a challenge was the Trolls, but I still think you could've beaten them. Your BSB could've taken out most of his units alone!

Yeah I know but it got close to 1115 PM and with small children... But it would depend on his shooting. If they hit hellcano (that got stupidly strong in cc with hatred frenzy). And the last 9 warriors. All i got left is bsb and 2 crushers . But the bsb would probely picked off his BSB in challange and probably declined challanged with general in my turn. And that opened up for stupid trolls

You're missing the point. The small children are asleep then. You can play! The annoying part for me is when the kids come in and start to pick up all the miniatures. No, don't touch daddy's toys. Honey, it's very important that they stay where they are...

Honey, it's very important that they stay where they are... Lol, I totally get you! I feel like a real jerk whenever I play a game. I have to close all the doors and just listen to my wife in the next room doing her best to keep the quads pacified when they know Daddy's is in the next room playing with toys. They're always trying to crack the door and take a peek. As soon as they know that they've been spotted, I get the cutest "Hi Daddy!" with the biggest smile. It's so hard having to usher them back out when all they want to do is be with me. BUT...there's a lot of things in my gaming room that can hurt them (Exacto Blades, Crafting Knives, paint, little toy swords, etc). It's in their best interest that don't come in when Daddy's playing with his toys........
