- Here is the table in all it's glory.
- Andrew
- Andrew's High Elves deployed. His forces included: 1 General with Orb of Majesty, 2 Wizards on Dragons (one with a Scroll of Dispelling), 2 Archers, 6 Spearmen, 2 Reavers, 4 Silver Helms, 2 Giant Eagles and 2 Bolt Throwers.
- My smiling face.
- My Chaos Forces deployed. My forces included: 1 General with Orb of Majesty, 2 Sorcerers (one mounted on a Dragon, the other with the Scroll of Dispelling), 2 Chaos Warriors, 4 Marauders, 2 Trolls, 2 Hounds, 2 Knights, 2 Chariots and 2 Harpies.
- Chaos turn 1: a brigade of Trolls and Marauders make it to the safety of the woods. A Sorcerer leads them.
- High Elf turn 2: a brigade of Giant Eagles flanks my a unit of my Chariots. The High Elves win the combat.
- The victorious Eagles advance into the second unit of Chariots. Ouch! When all is said and done, both of my chariot units are destroyed. I never even took out one Eagle stand!
- High Elf turn 2: Meanwhile, Silver Helms come crashing into my infantry ranks. Melee erupts with my Chaos Warriors. A High Elf Wizard on a Dragon lends his support to the knights.
- The Silver Helms push back the Chaos Warriors, and eventually advance into the Marauders. (Believe it or not, out of 23 attack dice against the Marauders, Andrew only rolled 3 hits. The combat was a draw, and the Helms were now sitting ducks!)
- Chaos turn 3: Gro-ghall (the Chaos General) takes advantage of the Helms' exposed position. 2 units of Chaos Knights charge in! (I admit, with the help of the Orb). Seeing the battle erupting , Festus the Doombringer swoops down into the fray.
- Victorious, the Chaos Knights advance into two more units of Silver Helms. At the end of the battle, all four units of Helms have been destroyed.
- A shot near the river after the Eagle/Silver Helm/Chaos Warrior/Chaos Knight fiasco.
- With the Silver Helms destroyed, the High Elf General sends a large brigade of Spearmen into the Chaos Knights. The Spearmen remove a stand and the Knights retreat.
- The Knights escape while Chaos Forces to the left finish off a unit of Eagles.
- The other unit of Eagles destroyed both units of my Harpies. In all, Eagles destroyed 5 of my units! I hate Eagles :)
- Near the Elf side of the table, Marauders get charged and subsequently destroyed by Elf Spearmen
- High Elves reform for one last stand before the end.
