Battle Report #69: Nemo3 vs Coven (Team Tournament #3)

In the last round we face Team Odden in the finals! I get matched up with Coven. Nima gets Amon and Kuba gets the birds again. All our opponents are strong players so we know this one is going to be pretty hard.

I haven't played Coven since I had a long string of fights playing Caine2 against Jonas in Mk2. I know their spell assassination is a bit weaker now, but still they have a really strong feat and are quite dangerous.

Deployment

Unfortunately he wins the die roll and goes first, which is going to put a lot of pressure on me. I spread out my troops, and so does he. 

Turn 1

Coven runs up.

I am able to sling a Chain Lightning into the Satyxis, taking out a couple.

Turn 2

Witches run in to jam and the Coven feats.

I clear all the jammers, but Nemo3 ends up too close to the front lines.

Turn 3

I guess I am a bit tired at this point, but I completely forgot he could kill the objective. One jack murders the objective and Deathjack snacks on Nemo3.

Cryx wins by assassination!

Post Mortem

Damn, I keep getting Nemo killed. Killbox against Coven when they get the first turn is rough, though. Afterwards we discussed the situation, and there was actually a rock on the right side that was outside the killbox. Probably I should have moved towards there instead.

I am bit sad to go 0-3, but after this quick loss at least I get time to look at what my more competent teammates are up to.

Tournament Results

Unfortunately, Nima loses to Amon after a long and hard fought match!

Kuba finishes in style and has a personal 3-0 in the tournament!

The happy winners - Geir, Kenneth and Asbjørn!

Team Odden takes the win!

All in all Team Lightning Shroud ends up in 3rd place! A good showing for the team (and the Norwegians)!

Team Lightning Shroud!
