The Chosen
|
As a new player of Warhammer I obviously chose the coolest looking army I could see, that would be the angry vikings from hell that we all know as The Warriors of Chaos. Now as of this day I have only played around 4 matches (school is a bitch) and I have to blow off some steam about my one and only loss... To set the scene, I was playing Blood and Glory Vs. High Elves in a very close match, I had 3 Fortitude left (Generic Nurgle DP, and a block of Nurgle Warriors with a standard), He had 5 (Archmage, Pheonix Guard standard, Archers Standard, And what I like to call Silver Buckets had their standard still) It was top of the 6th turn, my turn. The Daemon Prince was busy in combat with Pheonix Guard (too late to save my Skullcrushers, RIP), but my Nurgle warriors were in base contact with his Archers which had the Archmage inside of it near the edge of his side of the board, I had 8 dice for the magic phase, I decided to bubble Soulblight with 4 dice and got it off, Victory was in sight, but after that I had 4 magic dice left. Instead of not using another spell I decided it was an apt time to 4 dice a purple sun and hope it went far enough to hit some archers, and then it happened, 2 sixes... my Daemon Prince then decided it waas such a nice day that it wanted to have a nice Vacation to the Realm of Chaos. It got banished and I lost, all the cards were in my favor but victory slipped from my grasp, just in the way it would happen to a true Warhost of chaos. If any learning is to come from this disaster, it is that you shouldn't cast magic when you don't need to, and don't use Tzeentch dice on your Nurgle DP (especially so when your Tzeentch Hero and the unit he was in broke and got run down). All in all it was a fun day, atleast I didn't get hit as hard as the Lizardman player did,(they rolled Blood and Glory again) he started with 4 fortitude and his Slann exploded turn 2 trying to kill 50 clan rats,the Slann was also in a block of temple guard, he ended up with 5 remaining temple guard out of the block of 20 and only 2 fortitude. Anyways here is the question; COTEC have the fickle powers of Chaos ever wrest assured victory before? If so I would love to hear the stories. |

Oh man! Been there.... FAR to often! I used to run my DP with the Demonblade. VERY nice item, but one to many times it bit me in the ass last minute and lost me the game. Of course, there were times when it was on point and won me the game single handedly. lol! Watch my BR's and you'll see plenty of examples of last minute losses, and victories. :P My last WoC v WoC BR shows how the demonblade my OPPONENT's DP had bit him in the ass, Turn 6, and won me the game. Most BS victory EVER! lol! Enjoyed your story bud! :) |
