Next were the Stunties, in their grand halls

Next match was against John's Dwarfs (he can be found here). As it would transpire, it was him that brought my Dwarfs a while back. Small world.

The game went much better than I thought. The Thunderers were next to useless, and the Bolt Thrower defied all laws of statistics (Turn 1- Hits, fails to wound on a 2+. Turn 2- misses. Turn 3- does one wound). So yes, those were undoubtedly mine- especially that Bolt Thrower.

First to fall were the Slayers. Thor personally cut down several, mercilessly impaling one on his spiky Gutplate from the word go. His 2IC (ie, the Gutlord) took 4-5 combat phases to kill a Dragon Slayer though, he rolled a lot of 3s to wound, while I saw too many 2s.

The Bulls also did quite well, devouring the Bolt Thrower crew in one combat (they killed 2 on the Bull Charge- woot for inertia!), whilst the Gorger showed up late, but was able to pick apart a few Thunderers.

Turn 6 saw the Dwarf warriors roll a 10 for flee distance after deciding two units of Ogres were a bit too scary, bagging one crapload of points for me from killing the general and one huge unit. That said, I think I would have crushed it anyways. Thor had finally gotten on a roll, and him and his bodyguards on the flank of a Dwarf unit would have combined nicely with the charge to the front from the Bulls.

Again, some rolls really didn't work for him, like his big unit failing two Fear tests in a row at Ld9, this is before mentioning the abysmal luck his ranged units got.

Learning points:
*Ogres are still quick. This is a handy ability to have against gunlines, and against Dwarf infantry, well...
*Gorgers are still amazing, even though their killing power is a little questionable.
*Never underestimate the impact of a Bull Charge, even against Dwarfs.

And yes, the astute among you will have noticed that the Gnoblars are not mentioned. This is because they did as much, Useless curs
