Game 2 vs. eldar dark eldar and won as help one primary objective more.
Game 3 Nidzilla and I recieved an education. 1-19 so down i tumbled.
Game 4 Orks and scarabs continue to give up first blood. I have a chance to take via a long shot. Placed to win rather than draw and lost big. haha that will teach me.
Game 5 Chaos. Typus was in a large blob of cultists I ignored. Nurge spawn and obliterators deep striking. I had a 2+ cover on all my aV13 wall due to flat out first turn and solar pulse but still managed to loss 2 vp to a long shot (first blood and heavy scoring/giving up vp's). Barges finally stopped spitting out 6's. They had been great all the other games.
My best units. Barges so cheap for what they do.
worst unit. Scarabs. Great at tying up units and scaring vehicles but too much torrent S6 kills em too quite. They gave up first blood 4 times. Flyrants with brain worms, dakka jets and the hell drakes flames all kills them with out an issue.
Lessons
Think about going first. I always went second previously. Even in purge the alien.
A chance of winning is all you need to win a game. (deep striking deathmarks for contesting does work)
Practice makes perfect. (I make so many mistakes!!!!)
I finished around 6th from the bottom out of 84. Similar to last time with two wins and 3 losses.
Sounds like you had some tough games mate! Bring on battlefield brum I say! Are you playing the campaign this week or u fancy a game?
