Battle Report #420: Haley2 vs Wurmwood

:: Prologue ::

Really short on time so I just want to finish the last 2 reports before I finish packing for SmogCon! First up: Haley2 vs Wurmwood.

:: Lists ::

Cygnar:

Haley2 Storm Division Thornwall

Opponent:

Wurmwood with 1x Woldwyrd, Reeves and heavies

:: Pre-Battle Thoughts & Deployment ::

The Pit and I go first. Secure strong flank, feat last, push Lances far up. Keep Stormwall + Thorn central.

:: Game ::

Stuff spreads out.

Circle try to be cautious...

...but Reeves are within 20" of Firefly as well as Lance run + Laddermore shoot range. Bye-bye shooters! I kill both Sentries on the right flank. Good start!

Curse was landed on 'wall bottom of 1. Now Stranglehold ensues. Wurmwood feats.

Move Haley to flag, consolidate left flank, back Stormwall away from Woldwyrd, feat, contest with pod, TK Pureblood around.

No contest possible, scenario lead for Haley.

Up on scenario and attrition, Stormwall not even close to being in danger. Opponent concedes.

Victory to the Swans!

:: Evaluation ::

Storm Division Haley2 is a big step up for fighting Wurmwood. Stranglehold is a pain, but it also means Wurmwood's fury usage is predictable. The list deals well with infantry and has a number of big threat ranges that are lethal to basically anything in Circle.

Good practice game, I needed it!
