His list included 11 crossbow dwarves 10 thunderers with great weapons ~25 dwarfs with great weapons 1 runesmith as general - hating my general 1 cannon 1 organ gun Dont remeber the runes and exaclty what type of core dwarves he ran but stats ws 4 s 3 t 4, I 2. Deployment We did battleline to speed up the process.  After turn 1  Daemon prince ate a cannonball and exploded after failing charmed shield 😊 After turn 2 Missing photo.... Hounds took out cannon. Crushers failed it’s charge. Warrioirs ate some led from gunners. |

After turn 3  Crushers and hounds ate the crossbow dwarfs. Warrioirs massacred by organgun. Warrioirs failed thier charge and just ate one extra round of led. After turn 4  Crushers ate more dwarves.... those crushers were hungrey... dont think crushers are very balanced... After turn 5  After pursuing the crusher came back on the table, moving out of shotting arcand setting up for charge. |

Aftermath
Turn 6 I charged the organgun and killed it.
Wich left us at a draw 960 points to me 956 points to dwarves.
Fun and very swingey game. Thought all hope was lost when failing warriors charge with snake eyes and then loosing the rest of the warriors and BSB to one more turn of organgun shooting.
MVP for me was of course the skull crushers. As they were the only one reaching combat except dogs.

The game included alot of special rolls. Like a double 1 on 2 dwarves turn 2. My failing charmed shield. My failing charge one double ones. Only 4 shots on crucial last turn from organ gun with two missfires on second and third roll.  |

Your Daemon Prince got what it deserved Skullcrushers are indeed brutal and not very balanced. Dwarf bolt throwers match up pretty well with them though. I once skewered 3 Skullcrushers with one amazing (rolling) bolt thrower flank shot. If you can somehow get passed the armor save they go down well enough. They aren't completely broken like the skull Cannon though......but damn they bring the pain and grind/mulch through infantry. |

mottdon I come from a very competitive background. So working on just watching my models explode without getting upset and enjoying crazy dice rolls. I am making progress though, this game It did go as far as the last failing charge before I got a little bit upset. Luckily the organ gun jammed last turn to even it up.
