Deployment: Jamar won the starting roll and chose to go first, deploying from top to bottom: Nihilators (the ones with bloody swords), Swamp Gobbers, Beast Handlers, Savage, Morghoul, Brute, Gladiator and the other Nihilators. From top to bottom Sameer deployed: AD’d Striders, Spell Martyr, Spell Martyr, Black Frost Shard, Shredder, Shredder, Carnivean, Saeryn and the Scythean.

The scenario for this report was Guidons, in which there are two 8″ diameter zones, two objectives and while a player’s warcaster/warlock is with 4″ of an objective they can place it anywhere base-to-base with them. A player scores one control point if he has his objective in a zone he controls and his opponent doesn’t OR two points for controlling both zones or his opponent’s objective. The first to 3 points wins. Jamar recently made some colorful scenario pieces in the form of the large based rocks and 8″ circles.

Nice report!
Keep in mind that enemies don't get the backstrike bonus against Morghoul due to his Perfect balance rule.

Good point, though fortunately it worked out not to matter. Thanks for reading.

Enjoyable read.
I did think Saeryn made a mistake by not feating earlier, but it all worked out in the end.
Nice use of Blight through Spell Martyrs onto Shredders.
