Game 3: street fight, against the possessed.
The possessed warband, which lost its magister last game.
The witch Hunters are back up to twelve models, and are feeling good.
The possessed are leading the way, straight towards the dog-bait. So the dogs withdraw.
The two possessed move right in front of the witch hunters, so the dogs charge one and all four flagellants charge the other. Surely the flagellants and their six strength six attacks can kill a possessed?
No, they can't. They cause one wound, as do the dogs. Two flagellants and two dogs are put out of action. The witch hunters decide to rout.
Then, Sigmar pisses in my crunchy nut cornflakes yet again: one dog and both flagellants die. I have just lost one hundred and twenty five gold in models. So, I sulk and declare that I am disbanding my warband.
Later, I decide to continue after all. So, I roll my exploration dice unsupervised, but get such a low total that no one would suspect me of cheating anyway. With the money, I buy the two things that my warband really needs: a crossbow pistol, and Van Halfling!
Van Halfling will surely turn things around.
Also, I change the model I am using for my captain, because the current one is clearly not cool enough. I go for the warhammer quest witch hunter instead.
Also also also, I realise that I never did choose a skill for that witch hunter, so I pick 'eagle eyes' and give him the leader's old pistol.
New list:
Egeus Schelling Witch hunter captain with two maces and crossbow pistol
Erasmus von Miltitz Warrior priest with hammer and staff (soulfire)
Martin Volker Witch hunter with two maces
Johann von Eck Witch hunter with two maces and pistol (eagle eyes)
Titus van Marnix Witch hunter with mace and axe
Helmut Flagellant with flail ( +1 initiative)
Albrecht Flagellant with flail ( +1 attacks)
Van Halfling! Halfling Scout
Karl and Philipp Two warhounds
They are rubbish, their rating is far too high, Sigmar hates them, and they are extremely angry about it!
