It was a great game, I got pretty lucky with quite a bit, but my Witches being able to stand in combat like that in addition to dishing out that punishment was everything. Dark Elves really bring it on all fronts it seems: shooting is solid, Dark Magic is pretty good (even though I mostly just used Soulblight from Death), and those Witch Elves are ridiculous. Seriously. Disgusting.
Fire might be the way to go. Or just spamming that huge spell from High magic. That thing was gross.

Might want to give shadow a try maybe, for miasma. just to slow down all that fast cavalry to give you a chance to blast it. Fiery convocation is great, tempest you could use in a pinch. The range of high magic is short, unfortunately.
Or take metal. Witches wear power armor, right?

haha My first thought was metal, if for no other reason than to spam glittering robe and give everybody on my side a 1+ save, or light so I could augment my speed and make myself ASF along with him.
The biggest problem was that I forgot to use 2 of my slanns disciplines, and I deployed so far forward that by turn 3 we were in combat and I could no longer cast direct damage/magic missiles on anything. Lesson learned! Had I stayed back with my main blocks, I would have been able to harrass his units with skinks and magic for at least one or two more turns, turning the combats well into my favor.
Overall a great game, can't wait to get another one in against that list Jeff!

CJ, I'm supposed to have flag football at 7:30 - but with the temperature as low as it is, our team (read: the girls on our team) are thinking about forfeiting. If that happens, I'll gladly work through my frustration via a game of fantasy with you, but I'll keep you posted!

I'm getting ready to roll out of work. Post if you're in or out by 5:30 or I'm just going to go out with some coworkers.

Anyone else wish the notifications from ProBoards come through in real time? Sorry CJ - didn't realize the thread had been updated until right now; we did end up playing our flag football game, hope it didn't ruin your plans with coworkers!

I hear you. I generally just check every couple of hours. And it didn't, I had a good time with them. Want to shoot for a game tonight?

Tonight I have kick ball playoffs, so won't be able to make it - first game is at 6:45; if we win, we play again at 7:45. If we lose, I can make it to the store by 7:30, but that might be calling it close for a game.
