Pretty fun game, I thought. Knight of Scape did well with the insanity placement, putting 3 dreadguls in a bad position to get their OMs stolen Round 1 (I was forced to place first, giving the Varja first turn of the game). Thankfully, the Varja only tried to steal OMs from one dreadgul and one B-11. It had the opportunity of going for three separate dreadguls, but had to give up height if it chose to do that. Instead, the two attempts at the dreadgul and B-11 failed.
Nothing fancy happened in round 1. Some B-11 died, a couple of dreadguls, and a couple of honor guard. Round 2, I won a huge initiative and Valguard charged to the low ground to deal the final 3 wounds on the Varja, stranding its single order marker. That allowed me to get Pel into a very important level 4 spot, having height against the incoming HGs all game.
Honor guard and dreadguls backed by lazy Pel traded pretty evenly, giving me an advantage going into the end game with my two heroes (a half life Pel and a full life Valguard on the other side of the map.) and the last B-11. Warden 816 earned some respect, killing 2 or 3 dreadguls, blocking several attacks, and putting Pel to 1 life, but in the end he fell like all high defense, low life heroes do.
GG, Knight of Scape! Good luck in your future games.
