Tournament game 3

 My last game of the tournament was against orks again, although this list was quite different from my son's. This list included a Stompa! 

Now, I had no way of dealing with the stompa, so my only real option was to just ignore it and play the cards. 


This was a really fun game, the stompa was very much a point and delete weapon, although it needed to throw everything at one target, split firing was not really an option given it's accuracy!

The game itself was quite close, with both of us scoring highly through out the game. Unfortunately I didn't take many pictures, I was having to much fun and I was pretty knackered by this point as well. 

High points was the blade guard smacking around various ork boyz squads and the sanguinary guard dropping in and wiping a squad of boys before getting splatted by the stompa.

I'm sure some mistakes were made during the game but I don't think there was anything that would have fundamentally changed the game. One thing that could have changed the game was painting. At 81 to 78 it was a narrow victory for me but it should have been a 88 to 81 loss for me. Even if I had lost this game, I would have been quite happy as it was probably the best game of the tournament.



As you can see by the score sheet, it was a very close game, with primary being tied right up until the last turn and secondaries being close all game. A couple of poor cards on my side made a bit of a difference but not significantly.
