Not much movement, Magic was bad 3+2, so 7 dice for me.

I took a chance and had manfred try a spirit leech on his general with the 2 dice only he can use. It failed.

The Fire vamp then cast Piercing bolts with IF on 3 dice, killing 11 night goblins and 2 GG, ending the phase.

His turn.

Varg charged and killed the doom diver.

Okay, magic phase sucked again. 12 PD to 6 DD.

Fireball goes off killing two goblins (just wanted the kindleflame effect), 10 PD left.

Curse of years from Manfred gets dispelled on 2 dice, so 8 to 4 left.

Fulminating flame cage on the goblins gets dispelled with 3 dice, so 5 to 1 left.
Manfred tries 2 dice on spirit leech, 2d6+4, needing a 10, and fails.
Vamp lord casts Curse of years with 3d6+1 and gets dispelled by 1d6+4.

Very bad.

Stayed in place, Varg moves to get behind him.

Magic was kinder with 3+3, he got one channel, manfred gives me 2, so I ended up with an 8 to 4 advantage.

Cast curse of years on goblins, he dispelled, again getting exactly what he needed. 6 to 2 left.

I cast spirit leech on his BSB and he let it go through. I beat him by 6, but he saved 5/6 on a 4++.
Ridiculously lucky.
I cast Caress of Laniph on his Orc Great Shaman, and again he let it go through. I rolled 11, 7 after his strength, and 6 of those 7 wounded.
He did make 2 of his 6++ wards, but failed 4 and died. I leeched 2 PD from that.
I used the last 4 dice to cast Purple Sun, which burned his scroll.

not bad at all, this time.

several charges. black orcs charged 2 CG2, N. goblins charged grave guard, and orc big uns charged CG1.

magic goblin shaman cast gork'll fix it with irresistable force and got the worst result for miscast...but survied. took several orcs and ghouls though. orc shaman cast hand of gork but it was dispelled.

in combat the black orcs killed 16 ghouls and caused a wound on the vampire in return for 8 dead. the night goblins lost 27 dead ond my bsb and in return killed 7 grave guard...not good. in the ghoul combat the orcs nearly repeated their succcces in the 1st game killing 13 ghouls in return for 5 dead and the ghuols had 6 left at the end of the turn do to unstable....

Magic phase killed me again.
Good winds gave me 12 to his 7.
Manfred casts curse 2d6+4 needing 8 and gets 2+1 so fails.
Another caster casts fire cloak 2d6+1, needing 5, and gets 2+1 so fails.
I only got 2 spells off, and one of those was a raise dead to redirect teh spider.

I cannot believe my bad luck with the magic phase.

Had a decent combat phase, broke the goblins - good rolls involved, but it was to be expected that they would break, which panicked the spider. Small blessings.

charged the goblins into the vamp lord and the orcs into the corpse cart. the black orcs tried to charge the zombies but failed. the arachanrok rallied (although i realized it shouldnt have panicked in the 1st place cause its immune to physcology...) night goblins kept fleeing(surpirse, surpirse...)

no magic phase because all my shamans were either dead or fleeing.

combat the orcs killed the corpse cart and reformed and the goblins kill the vamp lord and overan into the grave guard. my nasty skullkers scored 6 hits against manfred but failed to get a single killing blow hit! lost 27 goblins for 4 grave guard(nasty..) but they were steadfast and held.

Varg rear charged the goblins to help break them.

Magic winds were 1+1, but Manfred modified that to 6 to 1. I cast undead horde, regening 10 GG, and cast vanhels, giving me ASF, and cast one other spell, which I forget.

Well, I crushed the goblins, stripping steadfast and KBed his general.
They held on snake eyes, however.

Okay, moved the Varg to side charge the orcs and keep them from hitting the GG.

Magic. 1+1 AGAIN!!!! Twice in a row when magic could have saved me. Manfred again modified it to 6 PD.
First spell was Vanhels to move the Varg into the OBUs. 2d6+4 at a 7+ spell. 1+1+4 =6<7

Somehow I was not surprised. I am coming to expect this.

GG still won combat, despite bad combat rolls for me, killing 7 and losing 4, but the BO pass their steadfast test.

Sigh. His turn 6.

orc big uns charged GG. arachnarok moved forward. night goblins and goblins continued to flee.

orc big uns inflicted a wound on the Wk and killed all the remaining grave guard. the black orcs inflicted a wound on mafred. manfred and Wk died from unstable.

so in the end i had 10 black orcs, 33 orc big uns and my arachanrok, and ryric had the varg. so i won! but it was much closer than the 1st game....
