Tabled first turn

2) But *why* would you glide?? I don't really see any benefit. It doesn't matter if you measure better or not.... its just better to be swooping.

3) But then you rolled smite and Haem. And like I side, I think it is a mistake to swap out Haem for smite. You only cast one power anyway, so if you get something good (enfeeble, endurance, etc) then the second power doesn't matter.

4) actually 10 gargs is a fine unit. But at that point they are more for cover saves and tieing up th enemy for short term; they aren't going to do much damage. At that point, I would leave them vanilla.


Still not sure how the zoans and terv took that much damage....

Well, good luck on the next game.

Smite is a good power though and when facing GK you sometimes need the ability to drop terminators fast. Sure Life Leech would be better for that but if you roll Haem, trading out for smite is not a bad move, just might mean you are stuck with only smite.

Now if he were facing Orks Tau, or another faction that doesn't have a lot of 2+ saves... yeah keep Haem in the hopes of getting something better.

There are plenty of other things he could have done better though and those have been thoroughly covered. At this point it's just a matter of learning and moving on.

I learned that day that as much as I enjoy making fun lists, sometimes the repercussions are more severe. Especially against hard Dex like GK. ALSO, trying to roll not complete $#!^ for saves is a good idea!

Tervigon took 3 wounds from storm bolter fire from 1 strike squad and a wound from the Dreadknights Incinerator, not Blast.

Your list wasn't that bad. You just made some tactical errors, and got very unlucky.

Wow..... *very* unlucky.
18 shots, 12 hit, 2 wound, .6666 failed saves...... and you had 3.......

Sometimes I'm amazed at how bad I can roll 3+ saves...once against DE I failed 6 of 9 3+ saves on my Swarmstar which had 5 wounds remaining. I then proceeded to fail 5 of 6 FNP rolls and Swarmy went poof. It evened out in the end though, my dakkafexes tanked a bunch of wounds and saved the day.
