The Haul Report 433

 Time for some more swag, and we had the first Underworlds tournament, and Golden Ticket qualifier, on the 8th of march.
 
And first of all, I won that Golden Ticket, so off to Barcelona it'll be - the hotel is already booked as I write this and my entry confirmed by Games Workshop!
 

But we also got some nice warscroll sized sleeves, that is handy stuff!
 


Apart from that, I bought a Wrack from Johan, and he brought along my Manifestations that I bought with coupon from the Halle event past december.
 

And then there was the loot for winning the actual tournament as well! 
 

One thing that wasn't Warhammer though, is that the costume I'll be wearing on an Angels and Demons party in two weeks arrived, and which will form the basis of the character I am going to build: a priest that is going to convert all those bare-chested women with holy water (aka, tequilla). 
 
So that is a pretty awesome stack of aelven and Underworlds stuff for moi, and a nice set for the pile to boot.  Until the next one, which will be post Benelux Clash 4!
 
Though I don't expect to grab yet another Embergard trophy there at all...

Blood Bowl match report: Only Fangs versus Black Lions

 Time for the next League match, and it is against the Dark Elves this time.
 

Now, as I gave up on trying to keep my team rating down, I bulked out both my team and my number of re-rolls, so he had a hefty amount of petty cash.  At least I didn't have any treasury that could be stolen for the fourth game in a row...
 


Albert, my opponent, spend the gold as such, no less then 360k, on the following: 2 Nuffle rolls (-1 on my Rush'es, and both Kleio Valentien and Sabien DeMonia showing Bad Habits)... as well as bringing along Morg 'N Thorg *gulp*
 

And then we where off for a game between the numbers 5 and 8 in the League, if I could take a win, I could form a gap of at least 11 points on the first non qualifier for the play-offs, and maybe grab one or two bonus points along the way.  Which should give some peace of mind during the coming 6-7 weeks I wouldn't be able to play. At least both my Claws and Tackle skills would be handy today...
 

 

We opted to receive first, and my team started out by trying to keep the star Ogre as much to the ground as possible, not managing any injuries in those first turns despite going through his armour regularly.
 
 

But then Sabrina Sabok smashed through his Witch Elf, Roberta Vonner's, armour, badly hurting her upon which his apothecary pumped her full of stimms to continue the match.
 


The ball kept going to and fro during the first half, but not much actually happened.  While my claws frequently cut open his armour, it only resulted in a single KO and stunned results for the rest.
 


Even two fouls in a row by Katty West, with huge modifiers, couldn't take Morg 'n Thorg out of the game, though being constantly on the floor the big boy wasn't doing that much, which is a good thing as well.
 

 

But right before the end of the first time, the hole finally appeared and Cat Coxx ran the 1-0 over the line after getting up, picking up the ball and going over the touchdown line.
  
 

The ladies adopted their FemDom kick off formation to keep the elves on their toes in their final turn, and the half ended as such on a 1-0 lead for Only Fangs.
  
 
 

Again adopting this for the second half, the elves started with a quick completion for a sneaky star player point, but also started to form a drive upwards with the ball.
 
 

And then the Sabrina Sabok time began, how calm the first half was, how bloody the second would become with the Minotaur in a leading role.  She began by badly hurting his blitzer Hohavih Fallsorrow, a punishment for throwing a pass.
  
 

But then the absolute moment came.  She bowled over Morg 'N Thorg, her claws ripping through his armour.  The crowd held their breath as medical personal stretchered off the big guy... and then the sheet was drawn over his face.  Morg 'N Thorg was DEAD.
 
 
 
The girls didn't take any effort to try and stop a broken through blitzer though, as we now ould have the big advantage in muscle, and allowing them to score the 1-1 quickly would still give me 5 turns to vie for victory.
  

And as such, Shaha Stormseeker put the equalizer on the board.
 
 

Both teams deployed again, and Only Fangs, and especially Sabrina Sabok, had smelled blood.  She immediatly badly hurt another of his linemen.
 
 
Roberta Vonner, his witch elf, then pushed Raven Black into the crowd, but luckily it was on the side of the Slaaneshi degenerates and she was led back to the reserves box safely.
  

However, the witch elf was then pushed into the crowd herself, and now the bunch of perverts saw their chance.  Tolerating only their own girls at that side, they formed a gang train on the screaming elf, and when they where done she was so badly ridden out she had barely the strength to ever stand again.  The witch suffered -1 strength, and would be replaced by a new recruit after the game, send off into retirement.
  
 

His team now in shambles, Cat Coxx had the free lane and scored the 2-1 as a result with only a few turns remaining.
  

And that meant that the hunt for that pesky assassin was on now, who had been annoyingly hit and run stabbing my girls all match long.
 

First, Kleio Valentien threw a savage block on another one of his lineman, and the elf was carried off badly hurt.
 

But then a "wall" was formed, ensuring the foaming Sabrina Sabok a solid three dice on the assassin in her sights.  The Minotaur stormed forward, screaming in rage, and trampled right over the pesky knife wielder.  The sneaky bastard was carried off, a niggling injury will remind him of the days he tried to knife down the favorite ladies of Slaanesh!
  

The game ended, with a 2-1 victory for the girls, and a hefty 6 casualties inflicted.  Well, that went good for the league ranking, another 4 points added to the projected goal and now occupying 3rd place for the moment, excellent for the 5 weeks I won't be able to play now.
 
Apart from a nice haul of star player points and a big haul of gold (and an immense team value of 1600...), the team saw Sabrina Sabok obtain Block, while Abella Danger gained Claws because...

For the second game in a row, and the third time in her career, Abella Danger was elected MVP by the Slaaneshi followers.  This for putting in a solid control game during the match, keeping the block skilled elves under control in order to prevent them from disrupting my lines.
 
So, that went well and we are really true and good on the road to the top 8 now, and more fans gather behind the team as the fan factor raises to 4.  We have a lead of 12 points versus the first "not qualifying" team, so it should be bridgeable to have the spring break and still be in the top 8 when we can get back to the pitch.  From then on it will be working towards securing the ranking, while hopefully some teams will have caught up a bit in team rating then.
 
But now, the girls are off to Hedonist 69, a nice resort of sun, sea and a lot of booze, to clear their heads and relax... 
 
 
 
 


Warhammer Underworlds battle report: Myari's Purifiers versus The Grymwatch

 Time to try out my chill build using Nexus of Power and Hunting Grounds again in an effort to have a calm and stressless day at the Benelux Clash tournament.  
 

Which due to the machinations of time will already have passed when you are viewing this on YouTube, so check back on that video to see how it went... unless you are reading this blog, then you still have a week to go before the tournament happens.  Doctor Who would be proud of this timey wimey stuff!
 
Facing me was Tom and those irritiating Grymwatch, but actually playing holding aelves feel more comfortable against them as I don't need to kill his leader at all costs compared to playing aggro, and can just try and play around the ghouls and open the score.  He played Nexus of Power with Emberstone Sentinels as a deck.
 

Both bands deployed, and tokens where flipped.  I only took the chance to flip one, blocking off the hold objective 1 and 2 card should he have it before he needed to start delving. 
 

The chance did open up to hit Krakmarrow, and Ailenn took it, but failed to hit him unfortunatly.
 

 But no issues, as Senaela shot Valreek of an objective, allowing me to score some surges and get an early glory lead.
 

The board stabilised, though Ailenn had been gravely wounded and was vunerable, but the Lumineth where in the lead 9-2 as Pinned also could be scored thanks to my archers shot.  And I nicely controlled my aggro urges, as not a single casualty had fallen in the whole first round!
 

 Starting the second round, Myari took down Valreek this time, though of course she would be back later on.
 

Sneaking back on the board in my back, some Hidden Snares at least prevented her from coming in like a madwoman as Ailenn had sought the security of her fellow Purifiers.
 

Myari tried to hit a guarded Gristlewel, but the only thing he needed to do was attack after all, so it didn't matter if he missed while Bahannar infiltrated the enemy's territory to deny some possible objectives he might have.
 

 Scoring Lead by Example, the Purifiers extended their lead now to 13-5 after the second round.
 

 At the beginning of the third round, Ailenn finally went down against the flesheater court followers, a fate to long prolonged in my opinion but heck, I'm not complaining.
 

 The Grymwatch started to move all over the place, aiming to take as many treasure tokens as possible.  The Royal Butcher was taken out, only to appear again near Bahannar...
 

... and be smashed off again by the big hammer wielder, talk about a short cameo! 
 
 And so the game ended, the Purifiers keeping their lead and preventing Supremacy and Take Objective 1 or 2 in those final moments.  Senaela had fallen, but she had snuck in an attack while being covetous still, grabbing Close The Vice to round out the game and put a 17-9 victory on the board.
 
 So yeah, that went well, not only in a scoring level (and I struggled to get inspired this game contrary to their previous outings) but more importantly on the "stay calm and don't charge wildly" level.  The warband will see a few more test games before the event, but I feel I created a solid midfield band and deck combo, which is my aim for the tournament.
 
Being already qualified for Worlds means I don't need to have "an edge" an will be playing some other people normally in the belly of the rankings, and I look forward to that in all honesty.
