An abject tactical disaster, riddled with alternating states of ungodly good and hideously bad luck for both sides. I rather doubt either myself or my opponent are liable to think back on this one too fondly. Due to animosity and subsequent poor luck and bad planning, I lost an entire regiment of Wolf Riders to my own Fanatics, and it took six turns to get my Big 'Uns into combat. Ugly match or no, it did serve to point out a few deficiencies in my army design. First, I am too reliant on magic. Had both my Shamans not had the Hand of Gork, I doubt I'd have fared so well as a did. By the end of about the third turn, both Shamans had fled from the table, effectively crippling my army. The best solution I can think of to this problem is to ease back on the magic a bit and increase my capacity for inflicting mundane damage at range. With this in mind, I'm going to try reducing my Night Goblin Shaman to a Level 1 wizard, dropping two Wolf Riders (10 has proved somewhat unmanageable), and using the saved points for a pair of Spear Chukkas. In combination with my Doom Diver, I think this ought to prove quite an effective ranged assault. The combination of Ditto's Double-Doin Doo-Dahs and Nibbla's Itty Ring is definitely one I intend to use again in the future. It turns a single Level 2 Shaman into a magical steamroller, particularly if he acquires the 'Eadbutt spell for himself. I made short work of the Necromancer leading my opponent's army once I got the Shaman in range. |
