Mike: Pre-Game Thoughts
I’ve been looking forward to this game since the match ups for the master’s league were first posted, and especially after Cooper (aka: Coop Juice) posted his predictions that had me losing. I’ve played Reecius once before, had a good time in a close game, and I expect this game to be close again.
I’m hoping the inherent Necron toughness will see me through this game. I’m not sure what Reecius is going to run, so I haven’t bothered to try to tailor my list at all. With that in mind, here is the list:
2000 Points
DECURION
160 Overlord with void reaper, Phase Shifter, Resurrection orb
235 10 Warriors with Ghost Ark
235 10 Warriors with Ghost Ark
85 5 Immortals
220 10 Tomb Blades with shield vanes, nebuloscopes
110 5 Tomb Blades with shield vanes, nebuloscopes
110 5 Tomb Blades with shield vanes, nebuloscopes
AUXILIARY
CANOPTEK HARVEST
240 6 Wraiths
50 Tomb Spyder
60 3 Scarabs
CANOPTEK HARVEST
255 6 Wraiths 5 whip coils
50 Tomb Spyder
60 3 Scarabs
65 5 flayed ones
65 5 flayed ones
This is going to be a really important game for our division of the masters league. The winner of this game definitely has the inside track to winning the division.
Reecius Pre-Game Thoughts:
I think this will be my toughest game of the Master’s League! Mike is a very good player playing a tough army. He and I have tangled before, and his Crons beat my Orks in a tough, close game. So, I am looking for some payback! I haven’t tailored my list at all, it’s the same Airborne Imperium army (+150pts) I have been playing and really enjoying. I think I have the mobility, firepower, flexibility and ability to put my assault assets in position to do the most good to take the day. However, it’s going to be a tough fight, Crons are no joke, especially when commanded by a smart general.
