[Baardah]

I've bin out travelling today and i'm so tired i can't Think. Will post my moves tomorrow. However my dryads will charge your wolfriders so. Chargereaction?

[Beithir Seun]

Stand and Shoot - this is where you find out that the Dryads are too far away to charge

Result of the throw of dice "5d6" :

2 + 2 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 19

No hits anyway, so it doesn't make any difference.

[Baardah]

Told you I wher to tired to think. Well well

[Baardah]

My moves then


Magic:
Fury of the forest on bosses unit:
I'll use all 3 PD

Result of the throw of dice "3d6" :

3 + 6 + 4 = 13

Guess that makes it hard to dispel?

[Baardah]

So D6 S5 hits from the spell because of being within 6" of a forest:

Result of the throw of dice "1d6" :

6 = 6

Damn that singer is on fire this game!

wound. Normal AS

[Baardah]

I was wondering, have I bin extremely lucky with the dice this game or is this what I can expect from my troops. Shooting has been great, but is this normal or OTT. I guess my singer has overperformed and ofcourse has no opposition from enemymagic but still...

[Beithir Seun]

I'll attempt a hopeless dispel:

Result of the throw of dice "2d6" :

1 + 3 = 4

Nope


The three Fanatics are dead then


1 6+ AS for the Gobbos:

Result of the throw of dice "1d6" :

6 = 6

Saved!

5 dead Gobbos then, not enough for a Panic test



I don't think you've been that lucky with dice - Wood Elves are good at shooting, and Goblins are very soft targets Your Spellsinger has done well getting such high rolls for FotF, but as you said she's been virtually unopposed and so you've had free reign in the magic phase.

In fairness, an all Goblin army is never going to be a match for an equal size Wood Elf army. I think you could probably be confident of taking on twice this number of Goblins with your army! What this game hopefully has taught you is a bit about how to use a Wood Elf army - that's the first thing you need to master. Once you know what to do with your own army, you can start worrying about your opponent's


Anyway, if that's your turn over I suppose I had better start mine

[Baardah]

I'm done. its your turn

[Baardah]

Don't wanna nag, but I just thought i'd remind you. You know its your turn now?

[Beithir Seun]

Yes, I know. I'll get round to it as soon as I can

[Baardah]

made an attempt at the end turn map. Think this should be right

[Beithir Seun]

Sorry for the delay Baardah

First up for my turn then - Animosity, from left to right:

Result of the throw of dice "3d6" :

5 + 2 + 3 = 10

They all behave...

Here are my moves then:



And the Wolf Riders may as well take a potshot at the Dryads again:

Result of the throw of dice "5d6" :

2 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 5 = 19

No hits...


Your turn again

[Baardah]

Dryads will charge the wolfriders again:
only two are in range so they'll have a frontage of 2
Alter, GR and wardancers will charge the bosses goblinunit

reactions?

other moves will be some minor positionchanges for the gladeguard.
attempting fury of the forest with 3d6 at the nonboss goblinunit

Result of the throw of dice "3d6" :

6 + 5 + 2 = 13

[Beithir Seun]

Luckily no Fear tests being as I outnumber you more than two-to-one, so the Goblins will Hold.

The Wolf Riders will also attempt to hold...

Result of the throw of dice "2d6" :

3 + 5 = 8

They fail - hitting on 6s then.

[Baardah]

if no dispel on Fury of the forest:
# of hits:

Result of the throw of dice "1d6" :

4 = 4

S5 being within 6" of a forest, wounding on 2's

Result of the throw of dice "4d6" :

3 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15

4 wound -2 AS

then Treesing with last dice:

Result of the throw of dice "1d6" :

5 = 5

cast
if no dispel:

Result of the throw of dice "1d3 +2" :

3 + 2 = 5

5" towards left table edge

[Baardah]

Shooting:
IF that treesing goes through: GG on hill will shoot at the goblins not engaged in CC:
hitting on 3's

Result of the throw of dice "6d6" :

3 + 5 + 4 + 5 + 1 + 1 = 19

4 hits
wounding on 3's

Result of the throw of dice "4d6" :

4 + 6 + 4 + 1 = 15

3 wounds on -1 AS

Oh. And i just wondered: do you outnumber 2:1? there is 4 GR; US2 to the rear=8, US 7 of wardancers in front an US1 of Alter to flank: total 16 so you need 32 models. You have 28. I won't argue. just wondering if i understand this right or wrong?

[Beithir Seun]

Fear tests are taken on a charge-by-charge basis; each charge is seperate, so the Fear tests (and thus outnumbering) are judged seperately. Your models are not one unit - they are three seperate units.

Anyway, I will dispel FotF:

Result of the throw of dice "2d6" :

4 + 4 = 8

So 4 Goblins die from that and 3 Goblins die from the Archers

[Baardah]

Nice Get that outnumber issue cleared I really had it misunderstood.
Onto CC
first dryads at the wolfriders:
10 attacks hitting on 3's:

Result of the throw of dice "10d6" :

3 + 5 + 2 + 4 + 2 + 6 + 5 + 3 + 1 + 3 = 34

7 hits wounding on 3's

Result of the throw of dice "7d6" :

5 + 1 + 4 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 3 = 25

5 wounds on -1 AS
rest of combat up soon

[Baardah]

Wardancers use their +1 attack dance which makes 21 attacks. I'll direct 6 attacks at the boss. So that's 15 at the unit.
First at the boss, hitting on 3's

Result of the throw of dice "6d6" :

3 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 4 + 1 = 17

4 hits wounding on 4's

Result of the throw of dice "4d6" :

6 + 5 + 4 + 1 = 16

3 wounds on -1 AS
then at the unit hitting on 3's

Result of the throw of dice "15d6" :

2 + 1 + 2 + 4 + 6 + 3 + 5 + 4 + 5 + 1 + 6 + 1 + 1 + 4 + 4 = 49

9 hits
wounding on 3's

Result of the throw of dice "9d6" :

6 + 1 + 6 + 4 + 2 + 1 + 3 + 5 + 2 = 30

5 wounds on -1 AS

[Baardah]

Gladeriders:
both riders and horses hit at 3's; respectively

Rolling "4d6" 2 times

1: 4 + 5 + 3 + 6 = 18
2: 6 + 6 + 3 + 6 = 21

sum: 39, average: 19.50

riders wounding on 3's

Result of the throw of dice "4d6" :

6 + 5 + 1 + 5 = 17

3 wounds on -1 AS

[Beithir Seun]

Sorry I'm taking so long to respond Baardah I'll get round to carrying on our game as soon as I can

[Baardah]

Its no problem. I understand people have more important things to do than warhammer. Whenever you have the time

[Beithir Seun]

6+ AS for the Wolf Riders:

Result of the throw of dice "5d6" :

3 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 = 13

None, so they're wiped out

5+ Ward for the Big Boss:

Result of the throw of dice "3d6" :

2 + 6 + 3 = 11

1 save, but he still suffers 2 wounds

6+ AS for the Gobbos against the Wardancers:

Result of the throw of dice "5d6" :

6 + 2 + 2 + 5 + 3 = 18

1 saved, 4 dead

6+ AS from the horses:

Result of the throw of dice "3d6" :

2 + 4 + 6 = 12

Another 2 dead

No saves against the Glade Riders, so that's another 3 dead, and no saves from the Alter so yet another 3 dead.


That's 12 dead Goblins in total, plus the Big Boss and the Wolf Riders - all in all, I get no attacks back

Break Test on Insane Courage:

Result of the throw of dice "2d6" :

3 + 5 = 8

Nope

Result of the throw of dice "2d6" :

2 + 5 = 7

They run 7", and I'm fairly confident you'll catch them.


Panic test for the other Gobbo unit:

Result of the throw of dice "2d6" :

2 + 3 = 5

Somehow, they pass




All in all, I don't have anything left to do really. You have most definitely massacred me

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Anyway, thanks for the game Baardah. I hope it's helped you learn a bit more about Wood Elves. You have my most sincere apologies for the massive delays in posting

[Baardah]

No problem with the delays. I have lots of other things to do and waiting for a WFO really doesn't bother me at all. Thanks for the game. And thanks for teaching me.
