My first game was against Richard and his Skorne, I was very lucky in this game as Rich was reluctant to come into Behemoths charge range which lead to me sitting back and dropping bombards on him until id won. (everyone loves broadside!)

Game two was against Jon and his Khador, I guess it was time to see who would win in a fight between Behemoth and Behemoth ;) My money is on Behemoth.... This game was a little different from the first - Jon moved at speed across the table preventing me dropping Bombard all game, I managed to get a charge off with my Big B into Jon's, Scrapping him in a single turn with Ivan taking down Vlad a few turns later.

Over the Lunch break we all had a chance to check out each others armies and select best painted (more on that later)

Onto the final round - Me vs My current gaming rival - Darren ;)

The first thing I noticed was pGoreshade which of course signaled the approach of a unit of Bane thralls, I decided to force him to fight on my terms, dropping into a corner and shelling him until he came in close enough for Behemoth to do his job - I very pleasant last game :)
