Journeyman Warcaster
Black 13 Gun Mage Strike Force

Turn 1:

The Merc's gained the upder hand and went first. The Jacks ran forward, as did most of the other Merc units. with only a limited number of guns the mercs did not fire a shot.


The Cygnar force played it safe and slowly advanced up the battle field looking for the elusive enemy warcaster. The Cyclone Warjack and Ryan from the Black 13th lay down their templates which would hopefully give the Merc's somethijg to think about.


Turn 2:

I thought I had taken more pics but this is the only other pic I had so There are none for turn three.
Well in this pic Scott's Mangler got covered by Ryans template shot but it failed to hit him, the Steelhead Halberdier got clipped. The Charger light Warjack targets the enemy warcaster can he hit him YES!!! and he wounds him, with an additional shot the Charger was able to take the enemy warcaster down to 2 life points. On the other flank the Stormclade faces off against the heavy cav, The Journeyman warcaster takes out a Steelhead Cav with a boosted shot. Eventually the Mangler that Ryan had targeted earlier but failed to do anything gets a chance to charge Kraye in the 3rd turn after Watt's from the Black 13th is killed, but after hitting Kraye 3 times he misses 3 times. The two surviving members of the Black 13th Lynch and Ryan both shoot at the Steelhead Halberdier that has Ryan in close combat. Lynch missed but Ryan kills him, she still has one shot left and sees she can target the enemy warcaster. she shoots, she hits, she kills him. Game over turn 3 Cygnar turn.


Conclusion:
A brutal game with alot of missed dice rolls [Some were epic fails Snake eyes,] Scott was great very understanding of a noobie player, and my questions.
Looking forward to my next game.

Cheers
