Free Folk vs Greyjoy

For the first game, I was paired against an unknown opponent and an unknown faction. I saw only infantry so I picked my anti-infantry (kind of) list. Here are the lists and score.

We started off slowly, advancing towards the objectives.


The Thenns must be doing Thenn stuff, so I advanced them right up the middle.

Fortunately, not all the Greyjoy charges made it.

The archers showed up on my left flank, but I turned one chariot around and - to everybody's surprise, including mine - killed them off in a couple of combats.

Then I learned about the Greyjoy mechanics - units not dying, but remaining with 1 wound.


As more units joined the melee, they Greyjoy stats began showing on the offense. However, defensively, they suck. Especially when the Spearwives get sundering from Styr.

The Reapers are a mean unit, regenerating a lot of wounds.

In the end, I managed to keep my opponent occupied in the middle, away from the objectives, and killed off four units while he only killed two.

Crushing victory!
