Hi,

After the first round, the score is Slann 31, Eldar 15. The Slann have broken 11VPs from the Eldar and have
4 OP's, while the Eldar has 3 OP's. The last one is under dispute.

As it stands now, Nils has placed most of his close combat units on top of a VP in a wood. This has the great
advantage that i will never be able to take them out, but alot of his forces is also tied up there (for the moment,
i expect they will swarm out in the next round :). My flank manouver with the Great Magus in a mech, and a detachment
of medium mechs has taken its toll. 2 mechs down, but the Magus managed to take out a Scorpion SH Tank which
was lurking behind some trees. Most of the Eldar force is either in woods, or in the edge of a wood, so they are
hard to hit, and im also struggeling with range in alot of cases. He used his bikes very aggresively, but charging
the Vanguards was perhaps not the smartest move. I just failed the regen on all 3 Nemesis tanks, so thats 3 more
VP's for Eldar, and a large dent in my titan killing weaponry :(
All in all, ive wiped out 1 detachment Dire Avengers, one Scorpion SH and 14 bikes (the exact BP :).
It looks like we're going head to head in the next round....

Rune is obviously expecting me to come chargeing out of my defensive positions, we shall see <evil grin>. I took a chance by chargeing his Vanguards in order to stop them from shooting out the Dire Avengers and ghostwarriors, this was as Rune said probably not too wise, on the other hand it allowed me to charge his mechs behind the vanguards. Rune is reluctant to engage my scorpions, exarchs and guardians holding up position in the woods on the right. I'm guessing he's planning to attack my exposed left flank, and ther isn't much I could do to stop him...... or is it???? I was lucky to take out all his Nemesis Tanks as they where a serious threat to my Warlock Titan. Slann has got som serious firepower and I must be carefull not to get lured into a firefight with him! Well here we go!

A lot of excitement around the initiative roll this turn aswell, Rune has announced that he is using his mage's ability giving him a +1 to the roll.

Both Rolled a 5, the Slann moves first those bastards!

Nils

Second round, LET THE GAME CONTINUE!
