Took out OBR on Starstrike using GHB2020 points.
Army is based on the Mortal Rain list by @EnixLHQ.
R1/T1: OBR
The Katakrosian Deathglaive's pre-game move + Stalliarch Lords' run and charge faction ability put him right onto my front line.
The ghosts take a beating and I use a CP to save the Chainrasp Hordes.
R1/T2: NH
Spirit Hosts move up and murder 10 Mortek Guard sitting on the left side objective.
The middle fight is a slog fest.
Chainrasp Hordes get healed by the GoS and hold back the Morghast Harbingers and Necropolis Stalkers.
More Stalkers beat down the Black Coach to half health.
The 2 remaining Hexwraiths in squad A retreat.
Lady O and 10 Chainrasp Hordes deepstrike near the right side objective but are still outnumbered by the camping Guard.
Kurdoss/Hexwraith squad B comes out of deepstrike and destroy the Mortek Crawler.
I win the priority roll and take the turn.
R2/T1: NH
Kurdoss and 5 Hexwraiths move back up the board and take out a Liege Kavalos along the way.
The Spirit Hosts and Black Coach finish off one group of Stalkers.
The BC regens 2 Hexwraiths.
R2/T2: OBR
Mortek Guard reinforcements wipe out all but 1 Chainrasp on the right side objective.
Everyone fighting in the middle dies.
Everyone fails to cast spells.
The Boneshaper charges the Spirit Torment holding the left side objective.
Neither healer does a single wound.
ST regens 1 Spirit Host.
I win the priority roll.
R3/T1: NH
I surround the Boneshaper with 4 units who only need a 3" charge.
We call the game.
Post match:
I'm going to drop Kurdoss. The points are better spent on a cheap leader (Dreadblade Harrow) + 10 more Chainrasp Hordes as an extra screen/objective grabber.
