This was a supremely close game. Closer than we've had in a while.

I think if I had made better use of my stratagems on Turn 1, that could have helped me a lot. When I fired all of my Noise Marines into the Rubric Marines and only killed 1 of them, that was a bit of a wake up call. If I had used Veterans of the Long War more often or even Endless Cacophony, I would have done more damage to them and maybe even saved Drakharr.

Overall, I think Abe and I both did very well and luck was a huge factor. I was hitting pretty well consistently, and Abe was either making all of his saves or letting my Cultists kill 3 of his Rubrics. Because the game came down to my needing to kill those last two models, it really did come down to needing some dice to land in my favor.

Still, a great game and I'm putting into one of my personal favorites.

It was the water.

I've been feeling a bit peaky since Friday. To hear that there's been at least one good, close game is great. :)

I have more doctor BS tomorrow, so I will probably be MIA for Wednesday's game, too. Best of luck to whoever is playing :)

PS: Matt has the best gifs.

I don't know how to feel about this statement. You people sure love to rile my safety senses up.
