    Halos: You might want to shift some stuff around in the list. Ask Extreaminatus about DE, he has some experience playing it.

    NotoriusBEN: Up for a game this week?

    This Sunday would be the best time to get a game done, Sage. If we could start between 11am and 2pm Pacific, that would be perfect. Otherwise, It'd be late night Friday when I'd get another decent block of time.

    To that, I'll say, we'll see. I've got a 1 pm western game w/ Susan. Just wanted to go through everyone, and play against them, for better (hopefully), or for worse.

    Skarsol's Eldar Defeated By Their Spikey Cousins!

    Seize ground objective, 5 objectives, spearhead deployment.

    Things went well for me and my Razorwings for the first 2 turns, but when they were out of missiles, Skarsol's Eldar hit back, eventually destroying a Razorwing, my Venom, my Trueborn squad, a Raider loaded with Wracks and all but one Acothyst from a second squad. In the end, which came down to turn 5, he couldn't contest the two objectives I held.

    It was a great game against a great opponent. I look forward to a re-match come January!

    You forgot to mention the heroic efforts of the lone Acothyst. He saved 14 wounds in turn 4 to continue claiming the objective. :(

    That reminds me!

    MVPs:

    Skarsol:The Autarch that survived an assault, a full round of shooting from 2 S4 flamer templates, 6 disintegrator cannon shots, 6 splinter cannon shots and a dark lance.
    Extreaminatus:The lone Acothyst that made 14 saves to continue claiming an objective.

    Also, Eldercat! I'm-a callin' you out, ya varmit!

    The Greater Good once again show their strength in battle! My shooting was decent enough that I could take down most of Susan's Destroyers (3 Destroyers & 2 HDs in turn 2). After blowing apart his scarab swarm, and the Deceiver's lackluster performance against my first Kroot wall (saved for two turns of CC, one of which was insane heroism!), Susan conceded. That said, Susan forgot about his Lith for two turns, and probably could have used that to take 2 objectives.

    MVPs
    Sage: Black Kroot for tying the Deceiver up for 3 half turns.
    Susan: If the Lith had shown up to support warriors, it'd probably have it. The Deceiver might have been able to clean off most of my offensive units and kept things together long enough to blow up anything that could stop it.

    Dude, you do know that my Monolith can't hold objectives, right :) ? My entire left flank was disintegrated and didn't even scratch the paint on any of your suits, and that Kroot ball bogged me down ridiculously (passed a LD7 check, then an LD5 check, then an LD4 check...). You were also lined up to decimate my Warrior squads on the next turn; there was simply no way I could avoid the phase out.

    Also, while I always appreciate constructive criticism on my play tactics, multiple e-mails after a match deconstructing my performance... really isn't necessary :P .

    Who's up for a match sometime this week? C'mon people, I'm Necrons, I'm a pushover, someone challenge me!!!

    Hmm, ok since you're in a later time zone that may complicate things. Tomorrow I'll lock down my schedule to find days I'm working from home so I'll probably update. I think tomorrow evening around that time may work, but that's just tentative right now.

    Susan's Necrons vs Skarsol's Eldar = Necrons Win!

    Annihilation, Spearhead. The Necrons had a good first couple rounds and managed to wipe out a unit of Swooping Hawks and decimate a unit of Warp Spiders; after that, it was a conservative match of maneuvering where both sides tried to keep their squishier models safe from harm while slowly racking up the kill points. In the end, the Deceiver managed to chase the Spiders into a corner to get sniped to death by Destroyers.

    Good game, lotsa smart tactical movement to take advantage of cover and natural terrain, with a couple more cover saves Skar might have had a much better time.

    Eldar MVPs: Striking Scorpions for handily taking down my buffer unit of Scabs while suffering not a single wound, and my Monolith for scattering over the Deceiver and frying it a bit.

    Necron MVPs: Destroyers for flaying the Hawks in a single turn, Monolith for splatting 5 Spiders in a round, Deceiver for keeping a counter assault at bay.
