K’daai Destroyer
He had
2 big blocks of bestigors with GW
1 block of gors
1 razor gor
4 chariots
no magic or shooting
Hitty lord and Hitty BSB
1 sets of 5 harpies
I got down first which was good, but then wiffed the roll and had to go 2nd.
His first turn was spent getting closer to me.
My first turn I screwed up a rocket attack with the wrong ammo type saving his chariot. Wiff magic with 2. Used the Magma Cannon to kill about 10 guys.
2nd turn his harpies were into 1 rocket and my magma cannon. and the razorgor into my mortar. I should have blocked that better.
His gors charged by hobgoblins and i Got 30 stand and shoots dealt like 7 wounds. then he hit them with 2 chariot.
I got a few good magic phases of the 6 spell 3 times probably killed 30 models all total atleast. Hatred is also a must have.
With hatred my 5 wide 10 deep hobgoblins actually did alright.
Also my dwarfs with great weapons cleaned up well.
He ultimately won because i failed to get my dwarf into combat soon enough, I was silly and kept them back thinking id support my war machines and that didn’t happen.
Can blunderbusses shoot into combat with these new rules?
Anyways the goblin hero did well, I didn’t really get to use much of the lord gear but it was fun I lucked out no IF’s.
He ended the game with about 2 units of 7 bestigors left and 2 chariots, I was destroyed.
One slightly better magic phase or perhaps a me going first would have won the game. I need a better formation for set up to protect the warmachines.
The destroyer was really impressive vs his bestigors, he needs a tad more support though against a really big unit. I also killed myself due to the fluff rule.
