Warzone Octarius: Pankallis Assault: Battle 26

 The ongoing battle between the Admech and the Krieg continues, though things were...a bit funky.

This time we stepped up the battle to 1500 points, which would have been around 75 PL. Though, after the battle we found one of the reasons that things have been going so poorly for Krieg. It turns out the Admech points were at 1425, and I thought my Krieg was 1500 even. But the Admech was 86 PL, vs the Krieg 58 PL. 

I thought points were supposed to be a more fair, more granulated way to ensure a balanced game? WTF?

Anyway, this game was a bit closer, but man, did I ever feel every single point of PL difference. And Krieg got 2 bonus CP pre-game due to the Blessings difference. Still had a blast, and the Admech are a challenging army to play against. It is definitely helping me learn how to pilot my Infantry/Artillery Krieg force since every mistake I make really hurts.

So, when I sit down to write this up, I re-tally my Krieg points total...and am stunned to find it is only 1195 points. Well. That explains so much. Being down over 200 points would make a bit of a difference. Argh!
