Title: First Battle: Baran vs. Shooty
Description: And then there's clavix doing his thing
Baranthazul - January 15, 2006 02:21 PM (GMT)
What time? I'm good today, anytime until 5:30 SST (6:30 EST), and then probably from like 9-11:30 SST (10-12:30 EST). Tomorrow I'm good till 4 SST (5 EST). How many points? I can play up to 2k, but I think 1k or 1250 is better for this. I'll post my angel list, and I think it would be easier for clavix (as he plays O/G) for you to play them as well.
Good luck shooty, may my massacre against you only be a little emotionally traumatizing :P.

I'll be high elves, and 1K is fine. tommorow is best, or afternoon today, around 1:30 PM EST on to fairly late. Tommorrow, I could be on any time really
Baranthazul - January 15, 2006 03:52 PM (GMT)
Ok, lets wait and see what clavix can do/say. In the mean time, lets make 1k lists. Nothing OTT, and no magic, for simplicity this time?

I'm good for now on tonight. I can stay late or whatever. tomorrow might be a bit tricky because from about 3PMish SST (4PM EST) I'll be working on a school project, but that won't take too long (1-2 hours probably).
Maedhros - January 16, 2006 02:41 AM (GMT)
IIRC, stubborn units can't flee. So your baiting with vengences won't work.
Points on the archangels are wrong, they should be 175 each, not 151. Unless they've been changed since since the top of the V3.1 thread, in which case just ignore me.
Have fun.
Clavix - January 16, 2006 03:13 AM (GMT)
I have confirmed that Maedhros is correct, Baran your list is over 1k. But he is wrong about the Stubbourn thing. Nothing in the the BRB states they can't flee as a charge response (i think you're mixing it up with Immune to Psych).
Baranthazul - January 16, 2006 04:21 AM (GMT)
Yes, its been edited for the game. And stubborn can flee. ItP can't.

here's the battle as of now, with one turn done

black is archangels, blue is angels, red is vengeances, and light blue is the princedom. the black square is my captain. the vengeances have broken, the swordsmen did not pursue. there are 3 vengeances left, and 17 swordsmen.

can we make the map about 2 cm less wide? i cant see it all onscreen.
Ironskintribe - January 17, 2006 08:57 PM (GMT)
Looks good to me, finish up with the rest please.
Baranthazul - January 17, 2006 11:55 PM (GMT)
We did. We'll post a playtest later on this week. I'll probably be able to play again all this weekend. Tarag and I might be able to do one this weekend, pending his availability. I can play again, or oversee.

Ironskintribe - January 18, 2006 12:15 AM (GMT)
Hopefully this weekend or next I can get a game in against you. And if I play you, have fun losing. :P
Clavix - January 18, 2006 12:36 AM (GMT)
I could probably get in on the action with my orcs.
Baranthazul - January 18, 2006 12:43 AM (GMT)
IST, pm me your details, more specifically, including points and times. And only on the condition that you get an MSN.
---Baran
Ironskintribe - January 18, 2006 01:53 AM (GMT)
Well, I would have to get msn but otherwise I am same time zone as you and I should be able to play 1000 points of angels or ogres. I will have to talk to you more later on the details though since I am not sure about when exactly I can play. (PS whats with the avvy?)
Baranthazul - January 18, 2006 02:08 AM (GMT)
Well, my msn is baranthazul@hotmail.com, so WHEN you get MSN, drop me a line. And the avvy is a pic of me, of course.
---Baran
Ironskintribe - January 18, 2006 10:59 AM (GMT)
Lol sure... and when I get it I WILL drop you a line.

Baranthazul - January 19, 2006 02:07 AM (GMT)
Actually, I'm the spaceman too.

shootyarmies - January 19, 2006 02:20 AM (GMT)
as much as youre the muscle guy
Grand Seraphim - January 19, 2006 06:13 PM (GMT)
I can oversee a game this week end at the moment, but i would rather not have to paint any maps (my paint is slow, crappy, and so are my skills with it :D)
Maybe we should actually decide in a DIFFERENT POST on battles.
