    What a battle!

    Yeah nicely unusual color scheme, it's really like to fight a Rainbow.

    And what a twist, the game seemed closed and then it turned upside down.
    I do believe Justin deliberately sacrificed those 2 taurosaurs at the beginning, to lure your guards out of position, to deal with relative ease with your weaker units, using those blocks of skinks-caiman

    Entirely possible. If so, I totally wasn't expecting him to throw away 2 expensive monsters to lure me that far out of position.. But, it worked in the end!

    It was a truly big gamble that charge with the Carnosaur, hoping in a successful overrun.
    That failed bet doomed the entire game, but it was well played on your part. Kudos.

    I know Skaven are one of our most hated foes, but I feel bad for those rats.
    Yeah, there was not really much more that could have been done... that combat of the Vermin Hulks has been a decisive point, but even with a success, I don't think the game could have been winnable. The score would have been closer, though.

    Nice game.

    Perhaps. But what I was thinking during the game was that if the VH could win that combat (and they should have), then they have the position of the Meat Grinder and the Plague Disciples at turn 4, instead of turn 5 - and not forced to overrun and be out of position. That gives me all 3 of those units to charge into one of his scoring units, and potentially drawing the objective and tying or slight winning the game. But when that failed, I had to sac the other two units so that unit of squigs didn't come eat my bunker, and it was all over.
