[Archive] 2.4 k against ogres (old ETC)

TheHoodedMan:

Next game is against ogres according to ETC 2014 rules. Put up the following list. Threw out the Bullcentaurs for the hellcannon. My hope is to grind them down a little so that they dont have the starting number of attacks in matchup with the Kdaii.
Hell cannon, taurus, K`daii and IG should not fight alone against an ogre block.

There are a few points left, what shall I do with them?
Earthing rod/ scepter of stability? Magic banner for the IG?

TheHoodedMan:

Changed something with the list:
Earthing rod in, ironcurse and tricksters shard out.

New core: 24 blunderbusses and 10 fireglaives

Ogres came in with 2 cannons, 5 mournfangs, 5 and 8 ironguts. 2 Heroes and a lvl 2 butcher.

Lots of shooting in the beginning. the cannons wounded the kdaii with 4 (!). Zharr Naggrunds finest engineer works dealt 14 wounds to the ironguts and the mournfangs.<br>Pistol-Ogres were near the hellcannon and opened shooting.<br>2nd turn: Remaining mournfangs fled from Kdaii charge. But flames of azgorh hit them hard and killed all (!). No scroll…
Pistol-Ogres charged hellcannon.
3rd turn: No good. S-P on taurus in superb position, but hell heart came through. Despite of earthing rod the s-p went to another dimension. Pistol-Ogres finished hellcannon and overran into magma cannon. Kdaii could charge one ogre cannon and finished it.<br>4th turn: Pistol Ogres eliminated first magma and overran into blunderbusses. Sole Taurus eliminated 2nd ogre cannon. Lead belchers dealt 5th wound to Kdaii.
Revenge of the dark dwarves: Blunderbusses beat Pistol-Ogres in close combat, pursue only 1 Inch.
But 5th turn: Blunderbusses deal 69 shots to pistol ogres. 4 Ogres more than gone. Small Ironguts(5) charge Blunderbusses, stand and shoot: 2 remaining ironguts turn on their heels and flee.
6th turn: K´daii burns itself (sniff). Daemonsmith kills Ogre BSB with a fireball.
1560:1439 for the chaos dwarfs (draw 10:10).
Two good rolls more and its a 15:5 but it could have been worse, too.

edit: Blunderbusses and Great Taurus had a great performance this time.
