Warriors of Chaos Vs Dark Elves

Game three:..........

Round three saw us drawn against Team Dragon. As the name suggests these guys each had an elf army with a dragon and the 4th had demons with a greater demon of tzeentch (kind of dragony). I got paired up with;

Callum Drury

Dark Elves 2400 Points

Dreadlord; (General); Black Dragon; Whip of Agony, Dragonhelm, The Other Tricksters Shard, Talisman of Preservation, Heavy Armour, Sea Dragon Cloak, Shield, 570

5 Shades; Extra Hand Weapons, 85

"Callum's battle line"



The shades went into a building left of centre and I ignored them through the game. They did very little where they were. On the right flank Callum’s knights, a master and dragon did a number on my knights. On the left my marauder horse took out his dark riders. In the centre one of my blocks took a charge from a master and killed him (more on this later).

Magic got the hydra and my war shrine held his remaining knights and master. Callum could have ran his dragon and hid for the win but stayed to fight. One of my blocks hit the dragon, beat it in combat and ran it down.

When we tallied up the points it was a draw (114pts in my favour). It was a great game and Callum is a fun guy to game against. He never gloated when the dice were going his way and never got grumpy when they didn’t. This was the main reason that I did not ask for the score to be changed to take account that one of my unit champions had killed his master BSB in a challenge and should have got +50pts for an underdog kill giving me an 11-9 win. Callum could have easily won by running his dragon lord away but didn’t so as to have a better game. He and his team got our vote for best sports.

Warriors of Chaos Vs Demons

Round 2 saw us drawn against Squigs: manglers! I got drawn against;

Ben 'Panzer' Harris, Daemons of Chaos (Ben got a choice of who to play against). This is what he had;

Great Unclean One (Balesword, Noxious Vapours) - 550 points

Herald of Khorne (Battle Standard, Armour of Khorne, Firestorm Blade) - 165 points
Herald of Nurgle (Stream of Bile) - 140 points
Herald of Tzeentch (Spellbreaker) - 140 points

28 Bloodletters of Khorne (Full Command, Icon of Endless War) - 391 points
24 Plaguebearers of Nurgle (Full Command, Icon of Seeping Decay) - 343 points
10 Horrors of Tzeentch (Musician) - 126 points
5 Furies - 60 points
5 Furies - 60 points

5 Flamers of Tzeentch - 175 points
Fiend of Slaanesh - 55 points
Fiend of Slaanesh - 55 points
Bloodcrusher of Khorne - 70 points
Bloodcrusher of Khorne - 70 points


"The Demons Right flank"


Ben’s 7 small drops got him the choice to place his combat units opposite my units that would be most beneficial to him. This is where Ben’s experience put him above me in the skill level. It worked out that his blood letters would face off against my khorne unit and his plagues would be against my tzeentch unit. I would have preferred it to be the other way around.


"Looking down Ben's battle line"


As the game played out my knights got tuck into his fat guy unclean one and got him down to 1 or 2 wounds before they got hit in the flank by his letters when they had held and then beasted up my khorne unit.
My tzeentch unit did a number on the plague bearers but this took a long time and was not enough to help me in the end. Ben’s chaff out chaffed mine.

I think in this game I played too aggressively and should have deployed further back and used a turn or 2 to get better positions before the combat started. 20 – 0 to Ben.
