Matt
*Calaban walks up and pops his feat (Calaban gets a fury for enemies killed in his control area, and can immediately afterward cast a spell.

I really enjoyed using my Gator's for the first time, they are very different to my usual play style. I'm not overly fond of Jarl, he makes the already insane Fennblades disgusting!
Exppect a revenge report soon! (I might even take photo's this time)

Hannah

* Hoarluk advances and puts rush on both the Axer and Mauler before discarding one fury.
* The Axer charges the mauler and hits him three times, doing 10, 6 and 3.
* The Mauler walks into the croak hunter and rips him up! He is then goaded 2 inches out of the treeline to threaten my caster before riling for 2.

Turn three
Matt
Upkeep Ironflesh
* Barnabas uses two fury to heal the Wrastler and one to heal the snapper, he then charges the Axer and pops his feat. (Non-amphibious enemy models currently in Barnabas' control area are knocked down.) Hannah's whole army is knocked down
. He hits the axer five times causing only 16 points of damage.
* The Posse call cold blooded and charge the fennblades, killing three.
* The remaining gobber runs at Hoarluk to engage.
* The Wrastler hits the Axer and kills it, healing a bit in the process, he then eats a fennblade to heal a little bit more and riles for 3.
* The Bull snapper charges at the mauler hoping to tie him up for a bit, and manages to cause 12 points of damage in the process.
Hannah
Upkeep fortune for free
Mauler and Hoarluk shake knockdown.
* Hoarluk heals the mauler and walks out of combat, the free strike misses. Hoarluk then casts rage on the Mauler and pops his feat. (Hoarluk's Feat is a truly dangerous one. When enemy warlock/warcaster models decide to cast spells within his control area, they take massive damage. The damage is rolled for after the amount is spent so you could make some models literally blow up with the amount of damage they could suffer. For example, if the Dark Prince Vladimir decides to cast Blood Of Kings within Hoarluk's Control Area he'd immediately take four dice worth of damage. This could immediately kill him! To a lesser extent, the feat also affects Warbeasts and Warjacks. The damage might be negligible at first but it adds up quickly.
Dhunia's Wrath is best used against Hordes or against warcasters with smaller control areas. Warcasters and warlocks who like to stay at the back of their armies often avoid the feat simply through being too far away. Against army lists with multiple warbeasts or warjacks however, the feat can do incredible amounts of damage and is best used when you expect to be on the receiving end of multiples heavies. The feat can be used offensively during your assassination run, as transferring damage involves spending Fury. Also take note of what other abilities involve spending Focus or Fury - such as pHaley's Vortex Spear or an enemy Krielstone Bearer activating Protective Aura - as these will also be effected by the feat.)
* The mauler tears the snapper to bits and gets goaded to move two inches into combat with Barnabas, fortunatly Hannah fluffs most of the rolls and only causes 5 damage. (should have died here)
* The fennblades stand up and do two points of damage to one of the posse.

Upkeep Ironflesh and take 5 points because of the feat. Ouch!
* Gobber walks after Hoarluck but fails to hit him.
* Wrastler walks into the mauler, hits with the first two attacks causing 6 and 1, misses with the third, gets forced twice taking 6 damage but finally kills the mauler.
* Barnabas charges Hoarluk, only his reach weapon is in range! first hit does 7 points, I buy an attack and take 4 damage, knowing that its either do or die I try to boost damage, Hannah rolls for the feat damage and gets........a 6.
Game over and another win for Hannah!
That feat is nasty!

The widow of a proud Menite soldier, Nicia hopes only that by the time she meets her own inevitable, bloody death she will have killed enough unbelievers to join her husband at Menoth’s side. This peerless Daughter of the Flame strides through battle with lethal grace and speed, each movement gauged to bring her within striking distance. Even as she cuts through one foe, she fells another with cannon fire, wheeling her blade around for another kill. Few enemies have witnessed Nicia's murderous devotions and lived.
Mercenary warjacks are often drawn from discontinued chassis once produced by kingdom armies. The Mule, a former Cygnaran warjack, wields a massive battle mace and an innovative steam-powered cannon packing enough explosive punch to scatter enemies like leaves. The Nomad, once a Cygnaran mainstay, has been battering enemy ’jacks with its battle blade for 150 years. The Rover was built specifically for mercenary use, and its battleaxe and shield-mounted cannon have turned the tide of many a battle. Mercenaries maintain these battle-tested machines and find them fully capable of standing toe-to-toe against any fresh from the assembly line.

Grissel Bloodsong stands as a bastion amid the storm devastating the lives of her people. Assuming leadership was never her goal, but she has proven worthy of shouldering the burden of Marshal of the Kriels in Ironhide’s absence. She gladly fights alongside her warriors and asks nothing of them she would not risk herself. They trust her to save them whether by shrewd words or the booming of her explosive voice and hammer on the battlefield.
As consul Vayl has achieved a position of regal authority, answering only to Thagrosh and Everblight himself and empowered to explore her mystical arts. She picks and chooses which conflicts require her personal intervention by peering into the mists of the future with her divinatory powers. Vayl has begun to unravel the mysteries of the athanc, and it was by this study that she modified her oraculus to resemble that perfection and then split it into three. (She looks awesome, I cant wait to take her against eGrissel!!!)
OMG! I want it now!!!!!!!
The boneswarm is an undulating mass of osseous debris given horrid life and animation by lingering necromantic energies in places where many have died. Gatorman bokors have learned to control these horrors, directing them to envelop foes in a mass of biting, toothy skulls. The bones of its slain victims are incorporated into the boneswarm itself, allowing it to heal damage and grow stronger and more resilient.
That's all for now guys, expect a full report of our all night Wrath launch event soon!
