Welcome to my first battle report!
Mrs Filthy and I have been waiting to try some of the new D1 figures in a match, and last night we were finally able to make the time. What follows is a description of that encounter.
First off, the teams:
Filthy:
Sir Dupuis
Phantom Knights X3
Raelin V1
Sonya Esenwein
Air Elemental
Total: 515 points, 14 spaces
Anticipated strategy: Move the PKs up fast, followed by Raelin and the Air E for support. Then, use Dupuis as a strategic missile to smash the opponents, bolstered by Knight's Courage.
Drafting notes: Looks like the Air Elemental is not going to do me much good this game.
Mrs. Filthy:
Torin
Hydra X2
Kelda
Zettian Guards
Total: 510 points, 9 spaces
Anticipated Strategy: Get the Zettians in a good position, then attack with everything else...Crush the enemy, see him driven before her, and hear the lamentation of the women (well, forget the last part).
Drafting notes: Mrs. Filthy loves the Zettians and almost always drafts them. Unfortunately for her, Torin's counterstike is not going to help them much, as I don't have any ranged units. All melee, baby!
The map:
The match:
Round 1:
Spoiler Alert!
Turn 1: Filthy wins initiative; moves up 3 PKs.
Mrs. Filthy moves up Hydra.
Turn 2: Filthy moves up Raelin to height.
Mrs. Filthy moves Torin up.
Turn 3: Filthy moves up Air Elemental.
Zettian Guards move up, shoot at a PK and miss.
Notes: Fairly uneventful round; moving into position and setting up some conflict.
Round 2:
Spoiler Alert!
Turn 1: Mrs F wins initiative; Torin moves up and engages a PK, sending him to death's doorstep for a second time.
Filthy moves Sir Dupuis up, setting up a charge with +3 from surrounding knights.
Turn 2: Mrs F senses something is up, moves up Hydra to engage Sir D, inflicting 3 wounds.
Filthy's PKs attack the hydra, inflicting 2 wounds; the hydra is down 2 heads.
Turn 3: Hydra attacks and kills Sir Dupuis, inflicting 3 wounds with 1 head. The remaining attack misses a PK.
Filthy laments the loss of Sir Dupuis...And the order marker that was on him. So much for using 7 attack die.
Notes: I had high hopes for Sir Dupuis, but I made a huge mistake by moving him up too fast, too soon...A mistake that Mrs. F quickly exploited. Live and learn.
Round 3:
Spoiler Alert!
Turn 1: Filthy wins initiative, the surrounding PKs finish off the hydra and inflict a wound on Torin.
Mrs Moves up her second hydra.
Turn 2: PKs put 3 wounds on Torin, attack second hydra but fail to inflict any damage.
Mrs: Zettian Guards fire at PKs but fail to kill any.
Turn 3:More PK attacks on hydra and Torin, but all fail. The dice gods laugh at me.
Mrs: Torin swats and kills a PK.
Notes: One hydra down...
Round 4:
Round 5:
Spoiler Alert!
Turn 1: Mrs wins initiative; moves up Kelda in a bold attack(???); claims height and kills a PK.
Filthy responds by surrounding Kelda with undead knights and inflicting 2 wounds on the blue gal.
Turn 2: Kelda attacks PK but fails to kill him.
Filthy envisions a Battle of the Cheerleaders; moves Raelin up, attacks Kelda with Raelin, but fails to wound her.
Turn 3: Hydra attacks a PK, who survives the onslaught of 4 heads with the help of height and nearby Raelin.
Filthy uses PKs to inflict 2 wounds on the stunned hydra.
Notes: Kelda had a tailer-made spot next to the Hydra, but Mrs. F decided on a 'no guts, no glory' strike. This is going to cost her in the ensuing rounds. My PK that survived 4 attacks of 4 is a lucky ghost, indeed.
Round 6:
Spoiler Alert!
Turn 1: Filthy wins initiative; PK's attack Hydra and Kelda, but fail to wound.
Mrs. inflicts one wound on Raelin with Kelda. The cat fight ensues.
Turn 2: PKs kill Kelda and inflict one more wound on the hydra...Which is down to 1 head, coiled with rage and shame.
Mrs. loses OM, as it was on Kelda
Turn 3: Pks attack hydra, but fail to kill it.
Mrs' hydra attacks a PK, but fails to kill it as well. It has the 1-head blues now...
Notes: The odds are quickly stacking up against Mrs F. If she can keep her 1-headed hydra alive, and get some good dice rolls with the Zettians, she still has a shot.
Round 7:
Round 8:
Round 9:
Spoiler Alert!
Mrs wins initiative.
Summary: Filthy moves up Raelin, but fails to kill the last guard in all 3 turns.
Similarily, the lone guard fails to kill anything.
Notes:...
Round 10:
Filthy wins initiative, finally kills the last guard with an enraged PK. The battle is over!
