Egde of Abyss Campaign: League of Rhordia vs Ogres – Kill
SEPTEMBER 3, 2017 ~ ILLUMINI ~ EDIT
Trigger warning, this report might induce memories of embarrassing first time experiences.I was up against Eirik, who usually plays Ostland league of rhordia, but who had now brought his Ogre army. I have played against Ogres once before, and it felt like a good match-up then, as they have lower speed than me, and they seem to not have a ton of options for chaff.
Kislev Army:
Duke on Ancient Winged Aralez, diadem of dragonfire (Tzarina Katarin on ice dragon)
Wizard, bane-chant, inspiring crown (ice sorceress)
Baron on horse, sword of striking (boyar)
Household knights regiment, helmet of the ram (winged lancers)
Household knights regiment, potion of catterpillar (winged lancers)
Household knights troop (winged lancers)
Honour Guard horde, brew of haste (sons of ursun)
3x Halfling horse archer troops (ungol horse archers)
2x Halfling volley guns (urugan cannons)
Halfling scout troop (kossar scouts)
City militia regiment (kossars)
Ogre army (don´t remember items):
3x Warrior horde
Siege breaker horde
Boomer horde
Red goblin archer horde
2x red goblin blasters
2x Red goblin chief
Mammoth
3x standards
Short overview of the battle: Ogres move up, League forces are overconfident, assume they will be able to take out red goblin blasters, but they have horrible luck and can´t make a dent in either. The red goblin blasters take out 50% of the league army. A desperate charge that might even the odds if successful was launched, but the bad luck continued, and the charge failed. The ogres crushed the overextended knights, and the league quit the field in dishonor.
Love the kislevmodels
Kislev!!! And ouch, those blasters.
I made the mistake of trying to hold Ogres once with my League. Only way to stop them in flanking and swarming them.
Better luck next time Illumini and congrats to Eirik on the win.
