D: Now THAT I should have expected but it had been so long and so much else was going on - I didn't see it coming.  The Hatamotos were a strong force and now they're gone.  I've got an invis Met-Proph behind me - and Soul Reavers in my midst - Matt has played this well.  What's worse - his Calistonians have been deployed inside that med lab for 3 turns and are carrying the serum!  I have to cut them down before he can get them off the board!

First things first-- Masayoshi prays to the gods of fortune and tries to spot Uzulgoch.  I roll a 5!  Success!  With my 2nd AC - I activate the Monks who charge the murderous beasty and hack him to shreds.

 

M: Poor Uzulgoch - I had him on WAIT (which might have saved him) but he blew his LD -

D: A blessed day indeed - hopefully this new wind of good fortune will hold.  I activate the Ronin and have them open fire on the Calistonians.  Again some great shooting - supplemented by heavy fire from the P-Sams wipes out half of those blue bastiges!

TURN 7 - Any Way The Wind Blows--

M: It's time to take the serum and run!  I pull back with all my forces - esp. the Calistonians.  I also finish off the Greyman!

 

"See Hashakk run?  Run Hashakk, run."



D: I have to pour on the attack.  I start by activating the Crim-Devs and assaulting Hashakk and his boys. And my chem sprayer kills all but 1 - Forcing Matt to drop the Serum. My chance!

 

M: This scenario is about the Serum, so that's my primary objective and I surround it with the Thrice-Grim so we can pick it up.



D: I see what Matt's doing - I know I'm out of time - I charge my faceless--

While effective - I can't get the rest of my facelss in range or bring other forces to bare fast enough and--



On TURN 8 -  Matt evacs the serum off the board and wins the game!

CLOSING COMMENTS:

D: It's always interesting trying out a new force. It's one thing to read the stats and abilities it's another to see them in action.  Mistakes? Well, I wish I had used my P-Sams and Meka better - that was a lot of FP I didn't put to good use. Also, I didn't take into account how effective the infiltrators were.  Matt used his infiltrators well - and really kept me guessing. He's a great opponent and a fun player.

I didn't realize the Crim Dev's could Para-Deploy until after turn 1 (again Hazard of a new force) and would have used that ability for sure (I play Imperial a lot and have used PD to great effect).  Also I could have used my Liege Lord's Give Orders ability more often - that would have given me a better edge.  

I love the Tanjuro Greymen - and the Warrior Monks were awesome! All in all Mishima is a fun force and next time it's more BONZAIIIIIII for me!

M: Semai is a keeper.  Can't wait to use those Calistonians again - man they're tough.  Mistakes? Well, I think I've said them already - waiting too long in some cases, weapon effectiveness miscalcs. I'm glad this wasn't a campaign because this victory would have cost me.  D's forces were punishing and his strat is impeccable, - that's what keeps me on my toes!  Finally, in closing all I can say is - Uzulgoch lives!

This Battle Report made my day!  Awesome narrative and descriptions of the actual turns, but I really appreciated the inner thoughts of the player's being voiced...it really made the whole report exciting and I could project my self right into the action.

All I can say is...

more please!
