DieCon Random Caster Tourney

So, the Highborn Covenant is probably going to make an appearance in the other events, so I actually need to purchase some Warcasters. Or, I could borrow them from my buddy David “Webber” Webster.

Or, I could always go with the Talion… hmm…. HMMMM…

Since Webster is probably rocking the Retribution, I’ll have access to all his ...

More Hardcore List Practice

SO… I got in 3 practice games with my list yesterday. Only one of them was in HC timed format, but the idea was to learn my models and get used to them.

So, the list is still evolving, but here’s what I used yesterday:

Highborn: 50 points Bad Bart - 2 x Mariners: 11 Arcane Tempest Gun Mages + ...

List Planning

So, while I put in a post with a list, I am notoriously fickle about settling on a list. In fact, last DieCon, my only confirmed list was my Termy list, and that was only decided about a month prior to the event. I’ll be playing a lot more Mk2 until June, and the Cryx ...

It’s Con Season Again!

All right, I’ve been gone for a while, but it’s time to get back into things. Models to paint, games to play, people to beat- I mean meet, and other such things.

So, after playing around with some ideas, I think I’m going to take the Iron Agenda’s taunting and advice and run with the Bart ...

DieCon 09: Saturday Part 2.9 – 4 x 1 Tourney Round 4!

Next round was against Chris Pratt [Xanathan]!

His list was pretty straightforward and loaded to bear with Armor:

Stryker Ol Rowdy 4 Stormlances Journeyman Warcaster

Ouch, 2 Arcane Shields, followed with Invincibility. Ugh. Ok, this game needs to be quick. My opponent is tired as well, so we get cracking. I prey on the cav, thinking that I should be able to ...

DieCon 09: Saturday Part 2.8 – 4×1 Tourney Round 3

Next round was against Rob Elstro [Corinth], fielding a Legion force.

His list: Lylyth Typhon Warmonger Chieftan 5 Raptors

So, he had a quick speedy list with tons of attacks that would really benefit from her feat. I got the first turn, and I preyed on Typhon. The army ran up, and I expected doom for Deneghra, so I Death Raged ...

DieCon 09: Saturday Part 2.7 – 4 x 1 Tourney Round 2

After the fast win that I picked up vs Joe, I hung around and talked to people while awaiting the next round.

I met up with Amy, whom I had given my Cryx coin to.

 

My next game was vs Ray Bailer [Neomorte].

He was using Legion, and his army was:

Rhyas Typhon Warmonger Chieftan Warmonger Unit

Wow, very similar armies on both ...

DieCon 09: Saturday – Part 2.6 4×1 Tourney Round 1

So, the 1-1-1-1 event was underway! Each person brought 1 caster/lock, jack/beast, solo, and unit. The scenario was always assassination! My list:

Deneghra Nightmare General Gerlak Slaughterborn 9 Bloodgorgers

Now I understand that Bloodgorgers are not necessarily the best choice in this format, since there won’t be that many living models to generate blood tokens from, but even 2 gets me ...
