• 4x Firespitters w/Akkadhalet (Devastation of the Doll)
• 6x Demonic Satyrs w/Yh-Sabahal (Skin Mask & Elusion Doll)
• 15x Warriors of the Abyss (Standard and Collector) w/Nilarakh (Elusion Doll)
• 2x Cthonian Larvae
• 1x Cyclops

We played the “Take the Position” scenario. We ended the game after 3 rounds, I think, with me having 18 Elixir and him having 10 or so. His dragon focused on killing Yh-Sabahal, but thanks to the Hydra Gift, he ended up with only one wound, but having lost his whole unit of Satyrs. Once Yh-Sabahal got into contact with Soim and then Galayan(sp?), I see why he is 555 points. I look forward to our upcoming league where we get to play 3000 points where I’ll feel much more comfortable fitting the beast in there. Looks like he’ll be hitting my painting table again very soon.

• Warriors of the Abyss x9 (Min, +2 Specials – Collector, Standard-bearer, +1 Extra) w/Nilarakh (Elusion Doll)
• Fire Spitters x4
• Hydra Warriors x4 (Min, +1 Special – Psychopomp) w/Kelzaral (Fang of the Hydra, Resurrection of the Cyclops)
• Cyclops x1
• Cthonian Larvae x2

2000 points exactly

Joel’s army went something like this:

• Huntsmen of Vile-Tis x3 w/Velrys (some healing spell)
• Headhunters x3
• Warriors of Blood x9
• Flesh Eaters (pain) x3

We played the “Invasion” scenario. My Fire Spitters sat up on a hill in the center of my deployment zone the whole game and fired when they could. The Cyclops and Warriors deployed on the far right side to go up against the Warriors of Blood. Larvae were toward the left and the Hydra warriors went to the far left to go up against Velrys and Huntsmen. First round the Cyclops was on the Warriors of Blood Killing two of them. The Warriors of the Abyss took out maybe one of them. Larvae jumped on the Flesh Eaters. Hydra Warriors ran toward the Hunstmen. Next round, the Hydra Warriors were wiped out, four Warriors of the Abyss were killed and subsequently resurrected, the Larvae were wounded but saved them all via the gift and Regeneration, and more Warriors of Blood died to the Cyclops. Next round more death to the Warriors of Blood, more wounds saved on the Larvae, Kelzaral ran for his life, Fire Spitters were now in HTH. In the end, we were tied for Elixir, the Larvae were down to one vs. two Flesh Eaters, and the last Larvae finally died thus making it so in this sixth round I would lose, but not by too much. It was a really good game.

I really like the Mid-Nor in this version of Confrontation. They have a lot of staying power and do have some units capable of laying some beats. It’s a shame that they won’t get any new models in coming years, but that’s okay with me since I have a lot of just about everything for that army.

Here it is:

• Fire Spitter x4 & Akkadhalet w/Devastation of the Doll
• Scourge Bearer x6 (MoP & Standard) & Akaranseth w/Skin Mask
• Sentinel x4
• Prowler of the Abyss x3
• Cthonian Larva x2
• Warrior of the Abyss x8 (Collector) & Neran w/Resurrection of the Possessed

6 units, 31 figures, 2,480 points

No real big strategies or anything, I haven’t played enough for that. Seems like it’s pretty tough to fit in everything I want into a 2500 point list. I’d like to use Hydra Warriors w/Yh-Ibenseth, but they are just so pricey. Oh well, we’ll see how it goes.
