Thinking about Fat Bottomed Girls

So I got my ass handed to me last time I got out to play.


Even with the losses I am still enjoying Borka, but I am *very* tempted to change up and try Calandra Truthsayer.  I really want a chance to fuck with my opponent's dice and alter my own. I am also excited to try to get my burrowers on the table.  Here's the list I want to run:

Points: 50/50
Calandra Truthsayer, Oracle of the Glimmerwood (*5pts)
* Troll Impaler (5pts)
* Dire Troll Bomber (10pts)
* Trollkin Runebearer (2pts)
Krielstone Bearer and 3 Stone Scribes (3pts)
* Krielstone Stone Scribe Elder (1pts)
Pyg Burrowers (Leader and 9 Grunts) (6pts)
Trollkin Champions (Leader and 4 Grunts) (10pts)
* Skaldi Bonehammer (3pts)
Trollkin Fennblades (Leader and 5 Grunts) (5pts)
* Trollkin Fennblade Officer & Drummer (2pts)
Fell Caller Hero (3pts)
Stone Scribe Chronicler (2pts)
Trollkin Champion Hero (3pts)


In other news, I gave painting my test-Impaler another shot Friday night.  When the wife saw it she said it was in "rough shape, but don't strip it again, just re-base coat it".  I base coated it tonight and shaded the muscles.  Not in the mood to highlight tonight, but I think I should be able to get it done tomorrow night.

Friday night games

Game 1 vs Cryx
Coven of Gharlgast
Nightmare
Deathjack
Pistol wraith
Harrower?
2 other light jacks
Loss, caster kill
I left Borka open, got arc'd onto and charged by Nightmare, end of game.


Game 2 vs Cygnar
eStryker
'Ol Rowdy
Thorn
Black 13th
Max Gun Mages
didn't ask for the rest
Loss, caster kill.
I thought I could engage Stryker at the end and took the free shot as I ran past Ol Rowdy, as luck would have it Rowdy got a crit knockdown, end of game, eStryker overcharged and ended it quickly.

2 more losses but I had a god time, i really enjoyed my second game against Jeremy (the local PG), and look forward to more games with him.

OMG You Killed Kenny! You Bastard!

So apparently I've been playing Borka and Kenny wrong.

According to this video from Adepticon, Kenny can activate separately from Borka.  I thought he was an attachment to Borka (making them a unit) and so had to activate at the same time.  Can anyone weigh in on this?
