Well, that went about as I expected. I went 0-3 (though apparently that got changed to 1-2, which I dispute. I lost that match fair and square, dangnabit!)
I'll do a longer recap later, but I lost R1 to skorne. Yes, he had good dice, and yes, I had bad dice, but my initial set-up was poor, and I paid for it. I'd like to blame it on the dice, but I got outplayed.
R2 was the one that got changed. There was some confusion on the rules for colossals. I lost, and I am going to keep it as a loss, because I did not know the rules on them well enough to correct the other player. I wear the black, I should know the rules. Besides, I claim moral victory - I killed the stormwall.
R3 - lost that one too. I made a mistake, and while it did not kill me, it did force my hand to take a risky move. I could have pulled it off, but I could not get out of the way of my own dice. Average rolls should have actually given me the game. Didn't, but should have.
I don't want anyone reading this to get the impression that I am bitter or upset. I'm not. Warmachine has a steep learning curve, and yeah, I have to lose a lot more matches than I have been playing if I want to get better. But, as I keep telling me kids - the most important thing is to have fun. And I had a lot of fun, pushing my little metal gators and pigs around the table, groaning at the bad dice, and cheering on the good.
