Aemir vs. Lowb

[Lowb]

Mindrazor on silver helms goes through thanks to the book:

4d6 +4 >= 18
1 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 4 = 11 ... failure

And then The Withering on Warriors but doesn't happens:

Withering normal on Warriors

2d6 +4 >= 13
1 + 3 + 4 = 8 ... failure

[Lowb]

Shooting puts two wounds on the sorcerer lord from the sea guard, the RBT shoots the chosen and impacts and wounds on the 1st row, and if you fail the save it also wounds on the 2nd row, 3rd row doesnt wound.

[Lowb]

For the combat, 6 silver helms makes 6 attacks at WS 4 and STR 8 rerolling for hits thanks to SoA.

The Silver helms put 4 wounds with -5 to AS, my horses attack after your knights but before your horses

[Aemir]

2 Chosen dead, Lord saved all by armor save.

Silverhelms can't reroll their attacks because Knights have same Initiative 5.

[Lowb]

Infact, the rerolls only don't happen when the enemy has MORE initiative.

BRB, page 76:

Also, if the miniature's initiative is equal or higher than his enemy, it could repeat the failed rolls to impact in close combat

[Aemir]

Gosh, they more I learn of them, the more High Elves look like Cheese Elves to me

BRB for High Elves p.666 Bring the cheapest unit, charge with it, cast Mindrazor 1+1 and win any unit in the game.

Continue your turn.

[Lowb]

Waiting for the armor saves and attacks from the knights

[Aemir]

AS for knights
1d6 >= 5
1: 6 ... success
2: 4 ... failure
3: 2 ... failure
4: 6 ... success

Wow!

With WS5>WS4 S5>T3 * 2 attacks each Knights make awful rolling of 1 S5 wound.

[Lowb]

I don't save the wound.

So I have 5 attacks from the horses on WS 3 and STR 5 (thanks to mindrazor)

4 impacts, 1 wound with -2AS:

Wounding

1d6 >= 3
1: 2 ... failure
2: 1 ... failure
3: 2 ... failure
4: 6 ... success

[Aemir]

Armor saved, my horse inflict one more S4 wound for armor save. Did you add shields to Silverhelms during roster redoing?

[Lowb]

Erm, yes they do have shields, and I save the wound.

So onto CR, two wounds on my side standard bearer and charge makes 4, on your side one wound and standard bearer.

You lose by two.

[Aemir]

Break test

2d6 +2 <= 8
1 + 2 + 2 = 5 ... success

If you go for the low numbers, don't change the trend during break test )

[Lowb]

Indeed, although it usually happens that you go for low numbers when not needed and vice versa!

Anyway, here's the EoT, your turn

[Aemir]

Warrios of Chaos turn 2!

Charge sub-phase.

Marauders 2 charge Great Eagle. Reaction?
Marauders 1 failed Frenzy test and will charge.

P.S. I found the mistake during our last cc: silverhelms couldn't make 6 attacks, because there were only 5 models in contact, but looking back at dicelog it didn't change the result of cc.

[Lowb]

That's impossible, we have same base sizes and you had 4 minis which makes 4 in straight contact and then the two of the sides are in contact by the corners.

Maybe they were wrongly placed but when the charge is complete there has to be maximum models in contact as per the rules, move them sidewards if you want to

And the Eagle stands or do you want me to clear your path to the FG flank1?!?!?!

[Aemir]

Marauders 1 declare charge against Great Eagle too.

[Lowb]

Stands still

[Aemir]

Chosen charge Spearmen 2 (12'). Reaction?

[Lowb]

They stand too!!!

[Zero]

Sorry to butt in, but on the Knights having a 0+ Armour Save, it's not allowed.

Note that a model can never have a save (of any kind) better than 1+ for any reason, and that, even then, a roll of a 1 is always a failure.

You can always just roll the gift up again this turn though, so it's not like you're stuck with a pointless gift :P

[Aemir]

Looks like Silverhelms get into LoS of Exalted (I didn't move neither Helms nor Exalted).

Zero, it's written in WoC armybook, that with this gift unit can be upgraded to 0+as, but nevertheless it works only 2+

[Lowb]

Allright go for it!!

[Aemir]

Mara 2 make it, Mara 1 already there.
Chosen failed (rolled 2+3) and stumble 3 inches towards spearmen
Exalted magically make to contact Silverhelms (I had to wheel him by cursor, holding the left upper corner at place, to find match wheel angle). And he's within 10' range.

[Lowb]

Ok, that's fine however you gotta "close the door" will you be able and still be in contact?

[Aemir]

Here is the pre-magic map

Magic Winds

2d6
4 + 3 = 7, channeling faield. I got +1 PD from familiar. 8 PD vs 4 DD+channeling

One more thing I recalled, the fear test for silver helms during previous cc.

Situation is critical, I'll wait for your channeling roll )
