Well Im late for my month three blog. My excuse is pure lazyness, and a desire to do other stuff.
On the gaming front ive missed a decent amount of weeks for people to Forget i turn up My new Name is Huang And I enjoy Playing Skorne.
Anyhoo For month three I purchased Zaal and Kovass (£11), Hakaar the Destroyer (£11) and an Ancestral guardian (£8) Which nicely gives me Zaal Tier 2 in my 25pt list of; Zaal, Kovass, Titan Gladiator, two cyclops savages, cyclops shaman, Hakaar the destroye, Ancestral guardian. This month I hvae played a staggering six games with Zaal winning all but one. The entire list is a Titan Delivery system who just slams everything. So far it appears to be working but the opposition is learning (Except chris who decided to charge the gladiator with his caster....)
On the painting front all models where finished the week of purchase and I managed to grab some Dragonforge bases for my skorne, which are also all painted and looking oh so pretty (pictures coming soon).
Next month I get Infantry so I should be able to use Zaal effectivly!

Skorne Month 2 - Saving on slaving- Being lifes Slave
As we are almost at the end of month two & the task masters whip was cracking I decided to write my blog. Unfortunatly I havent been able to get a game in this month as I have had life issues, Finish up work for College courses and Personal life really are a bane on painting and gaming, Along with the issue of almost losing our gaming venue.
This Month I purchased; Skorne Beast handlers MAX £18 and a Cyclops Shaman £12.
This Gives me some more Flexibility with my beasts and allows me to buff them up good and proper for more annoying of Circle, The beast handlers allow me to run my beasts hot without having to worry, Enrage will also allow me to beatdown enemy heavies quicker, (Khador springs to mind) And medicate will keep them in the fight longer, meaning ranged attacks will be less daunting.
The Shaman Gives me a nice bit of range support, The craft talisman ability Will really boost Morghouls offensive ability and allow him to hang back if needed and spell things to death (it may not be his strong suit but it will kill infantry) With the shaman comes Primal magic, This allows it to cast another beasts animus, thats right kids another model with FUTURE SIGHT! Its own animus Spirit blade will also be helpful against the cryx as enemy upkeep spells/animi on friendly units expire. Its ranged ability Evil eye also has ghost shot, No more tricksy Circle and there stealth ya say?. He also is no slouch in combat a Reach magical spear will deal with any minor threats the savage has'nt dealt with yet.
With month 3 fast appraoching im very much looking forward to my new caster! he is my favourite caster in skorne and a magical buff machine, Want a hint? It sounds a bit like Baal.....

Skorne Month 1 - Saving on slaving
Month 1.
Starting late on the tour (Well i had my models but was away for the first week) I was a t a disadvantage as everyone had already practised with there new armies. But one not to be Detered the Skorne Took the fight to the Dirty hippies (Circle).
All in all it was a close fight, Admonition upkeeped on the Titan Helped provide board control and managed to take out the Warpwolf. But was in turn destroyed by Multiple spirit fangs and then an Argus up the Arse. Kaya charged a Savage and failed to kill it (3 Boxes remained). As the skornes turn started Morghoul activated and cast the Savages animus upon itself (giving him future sight) Then promptly charged Kaya and cut her to ribbons (The argus who killed the titan was maxed on fury) So no feat was needed from Morghoul.
So the main things i learnt about Skorne, FUTURE SIGHT!! Its amazing and makes people hate you so it all works! Being able to boost over rolling allowed me to be fury economic and non was wasted.
Skorne have Surprising speed, Being a Troll player it was nice to play aggressively and take the fight to the enemy.
Admonition, It allowed for so much board control and denial, it totally changed the way my opponent wanted to play (Damn hippies), Its definitely a spell I'm going to miss when change my caster.
