At a tournament its the points that count after all.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07412304888734273336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668255476316917252.post-28873831728827659992017-02-02T11:27:57.310+00:002017-02-02T11:27:57.310+00:00Thanks Nick!

I think one of the key issues was getting rid of so much of his mobility on turn 1. Had the Rhinos and Bikes been a bit more spread out, they may have stayed alive longer for grabbing objectives. <br /><br />Yeah, I tend to always focus on playing the mission. It annoys me when someone says "you didn't really win, as you had only 2 models left and he has most of an army". If I am focusing on the mission, I will gladly sacrifice units if it scores me big. My aim is to win, not have the most men left at the end (that reminds me, I should play my Guard again soon!). Had we been playing a Kill Points game, my tactics would have been very different.

I did wonder around turn ...Lucky escape there Mike! I did wonder around turn 3 if your opponent was deliberately playing for the tabling - did he say whether that was his intention? It seems he was a bit unlucky with some of the shooting from his havoc squads early on.<br /><br />Well done for holding on for the win though - you really could teach a masterclass about playing for the mission objectives!Triple Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18002702481127525157noreply@blogger.com
