Round 4
Mark Stilton (VC) 10-10 Meeting Engagement. Mark was a very polite and confident player. For the whole game I threw chaff under his Giant Nightmare Collossus and ended up purple sunning his BSB and black knights, churning through his Ghouls with my 'letters.

Round 6
Jeff Kent (Lizardmen) 16-4 Battle for the Pass. Oh Shit, lizard on a long table edge. It turned out to a massive bonus for me. My Bloodcrusher brought home the bacon andcapitlisaed on Jeff confusing himself on flee reactions and me actually making some of the chargers. His 2nd Slann dimensional cascaded himself on first turn and his other Slaan tried to purple sun me a couple of times. I got tied up a bit with one unit With all of his shooting and fleeing and movement so we only got 4 turns in and I probably would have gone close to tabling if we got to the end of 6th.

Hey mate, nice pictures and I totally agree you would've probably tabled me with another 30-45 minutes of play. Was a good learning experience for myself with a scenario I'll have to get to grips with.
ReplyDeleteI totally get the insomnia thing at tournaments and if you find a fix please do share.
Congrats on the 3rd as well.
Thanks Jeff, it was a very enjoyable game against a totally different army than I'm used to playing.
ReplyDeleteI'd forgotten about tournament insomnia and so wasn't prepared for it. I am still recovering from the brutalising ravages of the mind from the weekend. I tend to focus on my game and it drains. A lot.
You guys are in Kapiti right? I might be keen to come down one weekend to get some more games in.
DeleteThe insomnia thing is nuts, I couldn't sleep last night because I couldn't stop thinking about the last two turns of my final game and if there was anyway to prevent a panic test on my Slann.
I may have wargaming PTSD?
Yeah, we're in Kapiti, I can have two tables up and running at my place with full scenery on a weekend with a couple of others you met from the tournament. Usually Nick, Hamish and Fern.
DeleteAs to the club Hamish, Nick, Fern and I meet from about 6:30 on thursday nights at Kapiti wargaming club and even Sam W is coming down on every other week.
Definately PTSD (Post Tournament Stress Disorder). I like the term not the effects.
