i had -
4 squads of zombies
Raelin
Q9

He had -
Grimnak
3 heavy gruts
marrow wariors
AB 1337

Long story short AE drop 2nd round a gun down Realin, Q9 whipes out 3 of them in 2 turns, Grimnak and Co. proceed to mow thru zombies with few losses. Game ends up being Q9 vs 2 1/2 squads of heavy gruts, Grimnak with 3 wounds, 1 AB 1337 and marrow warriors.

Q9 wins :)

Who's AB 1337?

:2cents:

I believe he means the Airborne Elite, though it should've been AB 31337.

Unfortunately for me, I was on the receiving end of this. It looked great early on, with Chompy and co. taking out 12 zombies and only losing 2 orcs. The elite took Rae Rae down since I knew I didn't have a shot at destroying him with 9 dice unless I could surround him with Orcs adjacent to Chompy with height. Unfortunately his Q9 took out 3 Elite before I got to start shooting at Q9 with them, and Q9 was free to start mowing down Orcs. Without Chompy, the orcs weren't nearly as impressive. In hindsight, I should've worked Tornak into the army to come up with the second squad of Heavies. My army was 10 points shy, so next time I'll replace a squad of Heavies and the Marro with Tornak and Eldgrim/Guilty. A great game though.

If you have access to Ornak, the Utgar flagbearer, I would recommend him over Tornak, the raptor-rider. I find that despite the lower defense his greater life makes him last a little longer, and his Orc Aura actually provides more skulls (on the average) than Tornak's adjacency bonus.
