Deployment

There were 7 objectives. You can see 5 of them (green mantic's ones) and the other two are behind the house and behind the wall near the dwarves.

As we deploy I decided to go for the four on the right, trying to slow down his elemental units, as the house should disturb his advance.

For the Undead, from left to right, front to back: Zombis Reg., Revenant King on horse, Zombis trolls Horde, Liche King, Zombis Leg., Necromancer on horse, 2 Ghoul Troops, Barrow Wights, Lycanis, Zombis trolls Horde, Wraiths Reg., Lycanis, Liche King, Zombis Reg. and 2 Werewolves Hordes.

For the Dwarfs, from left to right, front to back: Ironclad Reg., Stone Priest, Ironclad Troop, Earth Elemental Horde, Army Standard Bearer, Flame Belcher (scratch gyrocopter), Craggoth, Earth Elemental Horde, Stone Priest, Shieldbreakers Horde, Ironwatch Rifles Horde, King, Bulwarkers Horde, Berserker Brock Riders Reg., Ironclad Troop, Army Standard Bearer, Berserkers Reg., 2 Flame Belchers behind and a Ironclad Reg.

Turn 1

Dwarfs take the first turn. They move a little foward, pushing on my left flank, taking the low wall with his Ironwatch Rifles Horde and being cautious of the Werewolves on my right.

Then I move a little more aggressively, preparing the slow down on my left flank, protecting the objective on the forest with my Zombis Legion, but running up on the centre, to take care of his Ironwatch Rifles and push for that middle objective. On my right flank, just move to put the Werewolves and Lycanis on a charge distance to force him to move, while the Zombis Reg. took the objective behind the low wall.

Turn 2

Dwarfs run on the left in order to secure de objective, stay on the position on the center and advance on the right. Then they shoot heavy on one of my Werewolves hordes using 2 Flame Belchers, luckily they hold. His Ironwatch horde shoots one of my Lykanis, but the dices weren't on his side.

On my left, I charge the zombis agains his Ironclad troop just to advance and simulate a little interest on that flank. I charge with both of my Ghouls troop on his Ironwatch Rifles to disorder them and trying to make him mess his center line. On my right, both Lycanis charge and destroy his Ironclad troop (I need space to massacre his Berserker with both my Werewolves hordes) and his Ironclad Reg. is destroyed by the Werewolves. A great throw of the near Liche King heals most of the Werewolves wounds.

Turn 3

On the left the dwarfs destroys my zombis by a multiple charge of his Ironclads. On the center the Ghouls are destroyed but his center line gets disrupted. And in the right, a Lycanis gets destroyed by the Berserkers. My Werewolves gets a lot of wound again from his Flame Belchers.

On my turn, I keep trying to slow down the left side. On the center, a multiple shanenigan using Surge let me make a multiple charge on his Bulwarkers with the Barrow Wights on one flank, the Wraiths on the other and the Zombis trolls on the front. One could say I overcharge them... but I barely get enough wounds to rout the horde. A multiple charge from the Werewolves on his Berserkers destroys them while the Lycanis takes over a Flame Belcher.

Turn 4

On the left, the Ironclad troop charges the Zombi trolls while keep advancing with the rest of his units. On the center, the Shieldbreakers destroys the Barrow Wights. On the right, the Berserker Brock Riders almost rout the Wraiths while the Flame Belcher keeps damaging the Werewolves horde, which keep receiving healings every turn.

And here I embarrass myself. Just note I fly my Wriaths over his Brock Riders while disordered :S. Anyways, I think it wouldn't change the result.

On my left I move back my Zombis trolls. On the center I charge the Shieldbreakers flank with my Zombis Legion and his front with the Zombis trolls: Shieldbreakers erased. On the left, the Lycanis take over the other Flame Belcher and the Werewolves and the Wraiths charge the Brock Riders and... snake eyes. :D

Turn 5

On the left, the dwarves keep trying to advance, but fail to do so quick enough. They left the objectives in order to get the blood. The Brock Riders charge and rout the Zombis trolls on the center, and prepare a last charge with the Earth elementals and Craggoth.

On my turn I charge my Revenant King on his Ironclads Reg. just for the fun of it. Keep going back into the forest with the Zombis trolls. And charge the Brock Riders on their back, the Ironwatch on the flank and the King, using the Wraiths and two hordes of Werewolves, respectively. The first two units get routed, the King holds.

Turn 6

On their last turn, the dwarfs multiple charges the Zombis legion, but fails to rout. Same with the Ironclad troop against the Zombi trolls. The Revenant king gets destroyed after his crazy charge.

It was late, and my last turn wouldn't change the results, so I just declared Hold with everything.

It was a victory for the Undead 5 to 0 objectives controlled.
