Vs Jordan Bollin Scenario:  Standoff I set up a game against Mark Howard.  We were going to perform an experiment to see if his Iron Mother list could shoot down Skarre3.  When I arrived, I was told that a change in opponents had been arranged and I would be playing against Jordan instead.  As I had already discussed it with Mark, I only had my Skarre3 list and Jordan had brought his version of a Zaadesh2 list.  Here are the lists. [Skarre 3] Skarre, Admiral of the Black Fleet [+27] - Slaughter Fleet Raiders  - Kraken [36]  - Satyxis Blood Priestess [0(4)] Axiara Wraithblade [0(6)] General Gerlak Slaughterborn [0(6)] Ragman [4] Black Ogrun Iron Mongers [6] Blighted Trollkin Marauders (max) [15] Bloodgorgers (max) [15]  - Jussika Bloodtongue [5] Bloodgorgers (max) [15] Scharde Dirge Seers [6] [Zaadesh 2] Lord Tyrant Zaadesh [+28] - Imperial Warhost  - Agonizer [0(6)]  - Agonizer [0(6)]  - Archidon [10]  - A...

Overall I feel good about my performance in this Scrum.  I am still learning about better play with Skarre3, especially how to keep her alive.  My overall record was 3-2, and my strength of schedule put me in 7th place overall.  For those who may be interested, here is a link to our final results page:  Final Results - May 2018 Scrum .  We use conflict chamber to register our lists, and clicking on any player's name on the results page should take you to their lists in conflict chamber (there's a couple that don't work for some reason). I believe I am improving overall as a player, but still have difficulty keeping everything in mind when I am playing out my turn.  Usually there is at least one detail each turn that I just flat out miss.  It might be keeping my caster safe, cycling a key buff, allocating focus, keeping a key model safe or general order of activation.  For what it's worth, I did have a couple opponents who allowed me to allocate ...

Round 5:  vs Alex Kim Scenario:  Outlast This is the second round in a row that I am playing someone I played against in the previous scrum.  Last time around, Alex was playing Retribution, so I was slightly surprised when I saw trollbloods for his lists.  I know that last time we played I only avoided assassination because he forgot to cast assail on the turn he was coming in on my caster.  I would have to play more carefully this time.  Here are my lists as well as the lists Alex brought. My Lists [Deneghra 2] Wraith Witch Deneghra [+28] - Dark Host  - Deathripper [6]  - Deathripper [6]  - Stalker [8]  - Stalker [8]  - Skarlock Thrall [0(4)] Bane Lord Tartarus [0(6)] Darragh Wrathe [9] Orin Midwinter, Rogue Inquisitor [5] Soul Trapper [1] Bane Knights (max) [15] Bane Riders (max) [20] Bane Warriors (min) [10]  - Bane Warrior Officer & Standard [0(5)] Wraith Engine [15] [Skarre 3] Skarre, Admiral of ...
