Rolled for Spells.

Got Raise dead and Wind of Undeath for the Vamp Lord (yuck). Got Raise undead horde for the vamp loremaster. Also got Gaze of Nagash for Ghoulkin Vamp.

Unless I did this wrong, I have access to 34 spells with this army... now i just need the power dice.

Interesting.

Looking forward to unleashing several of my 34 spells, I rolled snakes eyes for winds of magic. :cry:

I got 2 PD from Manfred, and because of the location of the ruins, had 17 channelling attempts which gave me two more. His channels failed. So, 6 PD vs 1.

Manfred use his 2 dice to do a big spirit leech on the squig, winning the rolloff by 10! and gaining 4 dice from it. 8 dice for me, 1 for him.

Manfred got greedy and tried carress of Laniph on a night goblin, but failed to generate more dice despite killing it.

He then cast invocation on the skeleton warriors, which Alaric dispelled.

Five dice left. He casts Summon Undead horde and fails by one.

Three dice left. Ghoul vamp casts invocation and raises five new ghouls for his unit.

Two left, Vamp LM tries a piercing bolts of burning on the night goblins but fails.

His turn. My magic phase netted me five new ghouls, one dead night goblin, and a dead mangler suig. Could have been better.

Magic phase went well, 10 PD for me, only 5 DD for him after channels and items.

Again, 17 channels only got me one PD.

Successfully cast Miasma from teh CC giving the GG/CC/V2/SW ASF.

Successfully cast Fulminating flame cage on the night goblins - he didn't fail his dispell roll.

Cast Spirit Leech on the Spider, but he dispelled it on a lucky roll.

Cast Summon undead horde for my last spell, recovering one wound for the vamp and adding five new skellies for a total of 44.

Successful magic phase for me.

charged my orc bis uns into skeletons, charged my night goblins into grave guard.

magic phase cast hand of gork, but manfrd dispelld it. cast gork'll fix it on grave guard with irresistable force,miscast caused a wound on the shaman, killed 8 goblins and 8 grave guard.

shooting doom diver missed the varghulf.

combat, my orcs killed 22 skeletons in 1 round!! the orc boss inflicted 2 wounds on the vampire lord, took 1 in return, and i won the combat by exactly enough points for the skeltons and vampire lord to all die from unstable!!! reformed orcs.
balck orc warlord challenged manfred, accepted by grave gaurd champion. warboss killed champion with 2 overkill. goblins killed 5 grace guard in return for 18 dead, but they were still steadfast and they held.

CC charged night goblins, the ghouls charged the goblins.

Magic saw me have 12 PD (five from manfred, one from a channel) vs his 6.

He dispelled teh staff of damnation and scrolled spirit leech. Also dispelled curse of years.

I got Vanhels off on the Varg, charging his Great Shaman, who fled, then hitting gobbos. I failed to cast cascading fire cloak on the ghouls.

Combat saw 10 ghouls die along with 15 gobs, but the GG lost 7 more and killed 18 night goblins and the goblin shaman.

His turn.

Magic was uneventful, with him dispelling curse of years and an invocation on the GG. I did raise 8 total gg and 5 ghouls, but it wasn't enough to make a difference.

Ghouls again won combat versus goblins, but they held on steadfast.

At this point I conceded.
