Long Weekend Highlander Goodness - Chunky part 2

On the Sunday we played a Highlander event at Ace Comics and Games. The list I took was:

Reznik
Fire of Salvation
Errants + UA
Hierophant

First game was a Menoth civil War against Owen, who had brought Kreoss along to the party.Owen actually brought less points than he could have, so he was at a disadvantage, but Kreoss' feat would be a big problem. This turned out to be the case, but Kreoss failed his assassination attempt via spells. This gave Reznik an avenue to charge him the following turn if he could get past a free striking Exemplar. He squeezed by on one wound and put Kreoss on a wrack!

Lesson learnt: KReoss feat is nasty, but needs some ranged weapons to back it up.

Next I played Juffo-Wup with Cygnar, who had Stryker along with a Defender, Strom Blads (Knights - they all looks the same to me). Snipe + Earthquake + Disruption was always going to make this one tough. I tried to get up there as quickly as possible, but an ill-advised attempt to use Perdition left Reznik exposed to be sniped.

Lesson learnt: don't get too caught up in opportunistic Perditioning.

Last game I played Skell. Made a similar silly Perdition mistake in this game, and ended up getting picked off by a Pistol Wraith.

Lesson learnt: learn the previous lesson again!

That was it for the event, and then I played the organiser, DancingPidgeon in a 25 pt game. He played an entirely Jack list and Darius. This was going interesting, but I managed to get an angle on Darius with the Fire of Salvation via Perdition to get a win.

So, 8 games over the weekend, and I learnt quite a few things.

In a charge, people who can't get there can still run. Very handy.

Started to really use the Errants well, and found them excellent.

Still don't like Fire of Salvation with Reznik - too much Skornergy between Iron Aggression and the Imprint.

Hierophant was fantastic with Reznik - that extra point of focus really helps.

Must remember to activate Hierophant to use the cheap spell ability.
