*squealing tires* Sorry, Wargames Con Test Game...

EDIT: Okay, evidently I'm playtesting for something called the Wargames Con.  Why the change?  No reason they're gonna explain.

Here's my Bolt'n'Breath Daemons list vs Big Whit's Salamanders in a 2000pt test game for the upcoming BoLSCon Wargames Con tournament.  I asked Whit to bring Vulkan and a Librarian with Null Zone... well, 1 out of 2 ain't bad.  This isn't a terribly tactical game; Whit stuck to his plan and forced me to go after the points - and that's exactly the sort of game that concerns me in a tournament.


The major realization in this game was my absolute reliance on Breath of Chaos in my Heralds of Tzeentch.  There is a school of thought that the Heralds should keep their distance, shooting Bolt and Gaze from a distance of 24-inches away.  I tried that in this game and it simply doesn't work.  I use my Heralds as disruptors, and often that means making aggressive, suicidal moves to open up a game for the rest of my list.  You'll notice in this game that I ended up closing the distance regardless, using them to screen my Fiends among other things.

  1. Dear Brent,

    it isn't a proper battle report without crotches. Please include more in the next video.

    You pal,

  2. I did try to get my crotch in one of the shots, but was told it was to small to see:(

  3. I second the call for crotches. What's more, I think they should have a tag of their own on the right.
