I smell bacon!

OMW have you seen this!

He is one mean pig. Story goes he hacked and sliced his way up the food chain and is now one bad ass Farrow warcaster.

This guy looks like someone had his mother for breakfast and he is out to find them.

I have already decide to get Rorsh and Brine for my Cygnar. Gives me a bit of Hordes flavour in my Warmachine list. So when Lord Carver over here is release I will have some Farrow already and not feel too bad.

So i promised some feedback from Warcon.

Well my lists were:
pNemo
Stormclad
Thunderhead
Lancer
Squire
Stormblades (6)
Arlan Strangeways
Journeyman
Stormsmith

and

a pHaley list that I cant remember for the life of me.

Game 1: Ricky (eStryker) Mission: Convergence

This was a very fun 1st game I wiped his trenchers off the board with pulse while I walk within 6" of old rowdy, How i here you ask, I voltic snared the hunter next to him and so he was helpless. I maintained the snare for 3 rounds before the hunter got the arcnode off the Lancer.

I learnt that only the base armor is halved and I had Arcane shield on him so it was -7 to his damage rolls.

It was all going so well, i had Nemo at the back casting spells and filling up the jacks but then eStryker hit the turbo button on his suit and moved out of combat with the T-Head missed my Free strike and he charged off into Nemo with +8str for 4 damage...It only took 1 swing and the old man was down.

Good game had a blast. Got 1 CP.

Game 2: Hannes (pIrusk) Mission: Kill Box

This was one of those games that you just had to smile. Hannes games at our LGC so we know each other well and I knew his list was as hard as nails.

He deployed first so I knew he would be in the box waiting for me. To my surprise he didn't move Irusk on the 1st turn but he was still only 4" out side the box. I moved up trying to get some cover and block LOS.

His 2nd turn he moves Irusk to the side of the board and I just look at the TO and shake my head...it didn't matter what he did next because when he said i could go I just looked at him and shook his hand. He was not impressed with himself but I did tell him twice what the mission was so no excuses.

We carried on playing just for the heck of it and he proceeded to wipe me off the board. I felt really bad for him.

Game 3: Charles (Harbi) Mission: Capture the Flag

This was the first time I had face a proper Menoth player and Harbi at that and all I can say is MAN WHAT A PAIN IN THE AR$E!!!

I took Hayley for this game and it went well besides me shooting my entire 12man long gunner squad into her force 2 shots a turn a 3 feat turn he still got into combat and started beating on my stormblades. It was a close game as "dice down" was called just as I had my hunter run to capture his flag.

Game ended with a win to me with 1 CP.

Game 4: Nuno (Bart) Mission: Outflank, Outfight, Outlast

I must just say that Nuno had been to our LGC for three practice games before taking part in Warcon.

This game really disappointed me. I pulled a Hannes on myself. I moved my units into position so that I could capture the points in the next turn but did not see the Buccaneer charge with dirty meg that locked up my units while his Freebooter sat on the control point. Tick at the end of his turn and I did my best to get my units/jacks across to the point but alas...tick, he won. He did not even notice I just looked at him at the end of his turn and said well done.

So this was my 2nd loss but I did manage 1 CP.

So at the end of day 1 I had 2\0\2 and 3 CP. Not too bad as there was only one player who had won all his games so far and he was my 1st game on the Sunday.

To be continued.........

I did a write up on the 2nd day but it was wiped with my hard drive, I doubt i will get back to it as I now cant remember what happened exactly.
