We called this at the end of the fourth turn due to time. The IG tried to march an Infantry across to deny the 'nids TSNP but failed, and also failed to rally the only formation on the 'nid half. It ended up 2-0 'nids with TSNP and DTF. Had it gone to points Guard would have won 1625 to 1000. MVP goes to the Carnifex that made 9 saves to deny BTS to the guard.

I named that Carnifex "Ironside".

Truly insult added to injury was that even though I won the assault against... *sigh* ..."Ironside" his fearlessness forced ME to retreat out of his ZoC.

I looked that part up after the game. It says you can't enter into an enemy ZoC with the consolidate. It doesn't say anything about moving out of an enemy's ZoC. So no insult to you then, you get a moral victory for retreating when you didn't need to instead.

moral victory usually trumps everything, including real victories, but I think 7 saves trumps that!

9? That's ridiculous!
