OK, the tournament...
First game (Nikica and the Coven) - Gorten played second and didn't cast solid ground. The first chicken slamed in and knocked him over. He actually managed to stay alive for a round (with 3 wounds), but died soon afterwards.
Second game (Dj. Bjelajac and Vladimir) - Mercenaries killed everything. Without any cassulties. Though I must admit that the dice gods favoured me heavily. The Khador army split - on one side it's Eyriss and the Widowmakers, on the other - Vladimir, Destroyer, Beast, Drakhun and a Manhunter. One of Thor's Blasters killed the Widowmakers in two rounds. Thor actualy got hit by a Widowmaker's bullet, suffering two wounds. Ayana and Holt won me the game by themselves. They went invisible for a few rounds, and then the Drakhun approached them. They engaged him in melee, and Holt killed him almost singlehandedly - he already had 6 wounds. One pistol shot did nothing, the other killed the horse. First blade gave him two wounds (I rolled 11) and the second blade finished him (I rolled 6,6,6 for damage). In the meantime Ayana cast Harm on the Beast, so the rest of the Merc army trashed him completely. Gorten then used his feat to move Vlad and his Destroyer so Eyriss could disrupt him. And she failed. On the upside, Vlad could do nothing that round but move in front of my army and cast Blood of Kings on himself. But his "Eyriss" disrupted Gorten (he didn't know then that was the false one). So on my fourth round I dealed with the Destroyer, much in the same way I dealed with Beast, and a Blaster proved that only the true Eyriss could miss Vlad the second time. Gorten killed a Manhunter who sneaked up on us from behind. Djordje's fourth round - Vladimir was completely on his own, but I made a mistake - with 9 inches of movement he could go around my warjack and approach Gorten. And he should've killed him, but dice betrayed him. Gorten was alive on 3 wounds. And I would've still lost if it wasn't for Holt, who ran Vlad to the ground with his pistols. And then he was quickly taken care of, finished by a blast from a Blaster.
Third game - A lot of things happened, but most of them weren't so interesting. I won because Gorman threw black oil towards Beast, who was out of range, and rolled just the two numbers I needed for the shot to scatter just between him and Sorscha. Which gave me enough time to deal with all of them. Actualy, Sorscha retreated that round, hiding behind a rock, and returned on the next one, Cycloned through some Forgeguard and Gorman, and was left standing there surrounded. Alexia tried and failed to kill her, so Gorten moved her in the clear and shot her dead. I also lost Thor and Eyriss to sniper fire. An autonomous Destroyer and maybe one Widowmaker survived on the other side. Jonne killed Yuri and Eyriss by shooting them in close range. Ayana and Holt held my left flank and killed only one Widowmaker. And Harmed, knocked over and severely wounded a MoW Kovnik.
