Still, that's what happens in a game underwritten in random chance. How was it being on the receiving end of dirty 3++ saves on thunderwolves for a change? I hate them so much. ;)Jimbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04950063737302695309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320541665600624608.post-68981011839181257332013-09-09T23:51:40.750+01:002013-09-09T23:51:40.750+01:00All our games went to time and the two of you were...All our games went to time and the two of you were deep in thought in the middle of a game when I did spot you and naturally I didn't want to disturb your thought pattern (translation I fancied going to the bar)kongnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320541665600624608.post-74173645817469437112013-09-09T23:48:11.513+01:002013-09-09T23:48:11.513+01:00He stuck with the drones and commander as this doe...He stuck with the drones and commander as this doesn't hamper either unit's movement.

The 4++ save divination one is handy for the wraithknight.<br /><br />The best is Misfortune though I reckon. Sadly we rolled that in game 3 but never got chance to use it. <br /><br />Occasionally the telepathy powers have merit because they're mostly solid and the Primaris is decent. <br /><br />You need the Spirit Stone of Anath'lan though to prevent you wasting WC2 powers.From The Fanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01043549318855295914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320541665600624608.post-70195827655047703182013-09-09T23:30:54.877+01:002013-09-09T23:30:54.877+01:00Out of interest, what psychic power are you lookin...Out of interest, what psychic power are you looking for apart from guide and prescience?kongnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2320541665600624608.post-50448238424252307962013-09-09T23:28:08.927+01:002013-09-09T23:28:08.927+01:00Cool!
