#Sorshas ideas list

[daydreams-after-dark]

Heya, fav skz fanfic writer.

Purely self indulgent but can you write about uk chanmin or hyunchan x reader where it's Sunday and you wake up cuddled in between them and like uk go about the day doing daily normal stuff like making breakfast while reader sits on the counter n watches them make it, lazing around after and then ordering a huge takeout for a late lunch, and playing a game or something and then on a impulse they go on a night drive and find like an abandoned building or something n explore(this is for the thril cause my traumatized self just craves for some adrenaline when lifes quiet and good) but it could end in something funny and then they go to a drive through( brownie points if they both drive you know switch after each stop) and order for each other and then u fall asleep on either of the two in backseat during the ride back and then they both wake you up to see the sunrise from the car's sunroof.

Basically asking for just pure fluff and comedy and just pure comfort. Hehe, looking back i realised I wrote a whole lot lol. You don't have to include every single detail i gave, you can change and write the way you want it to be, i don't ask for much! (That is if you choose to write this)

This is the cutest, fluffy scenario! 😍

I don’t think I’ve ever written pure fluff before… but you know what? I think I might!!!

This scenario / Drabble will be best suited over on my main blog. So what I’m going to do is save this ask, and get to it over there.

I’m honestly not sure on the timeframe because I feel writer’s burnout coming and I need to listen to it. This is a hobby after all, and I must ensure I treat it as such.

But in saying that. I work in cycles, so I’ll be back to writing mode before I know it.

Tanthamore Week May 2023 Info (updated)

What is Tanthamore Week?

Tanthamore Week 2023 is a week-long fanwork creation celebration for the pairing Jade Claymore/Kit Tanthalos from the TV show Willow (2022), running from May 22-28, 2023. The theme is “Season 2”!

How does it work?

You create fan content aligning with one of the prompts and post it during the week! You can use the tags and AO3 collection to organise, and we will reblog/post some of the creations.

There are seven prompts, one for each day – they are general and then we have provided specific ideas for each of them. You don’t have to use any of the specific ones.

You don’t have to create something for every day! You don’t have to adhere strictly to the prompts! This is meant to be as inclusive and accessible as possible. There are no word minimums or maximums, no requirements for art size or approach, etc. You can write a long fic that hits each of the prompts, or a drabble for only one prompt – anything is welcome.

All types of fan content are welcome: art, fic, vids, fan mixes, rec lists, etc. If it’s transformative, it’s welcome!

You can add your work to the collection on AO3 here if you would like (use the "Post to Collection" button).

All content should be in some way related to Tanthamore, and to the overall theme of “Season 2”, but other than that, feel free to interpret the prompts and guidelines however you like. We are not going to police your work!

All ratings and content warnings are welcome, but please tag it appropriately (on AO3, using the Archive warnings and rating system as you please, and on Tumblr, with tags that communicate the content in a manner similar to the archive warnings.

Any questions can be asked using our ask box or emailed to us at tanthamoreweek@gmail.com.

Willow characters as D&D classes and races not because I can't sleep, but because I don't want to write tomorrow's session

Unlike my Percy Jackson version of this post, Willow has pretty clear ties to D&D, especially the 2022 show, so I'm not really going to be changing characters' races for this list. For all intents and purposes, they could be played in the world they're in, rather than adapted into a high-fantasy setting like I did with PJO. That said, I will be taking a couple of liberties with it, and trying to make it at least a little interesting. Same rules as the last one: minimal reflavoring, and no hombrew or unearthed arcana.

Willow Ufgood: Halfling Transmutation Wizard. Yeah, I know that all of the magic-users in the Willow-verse are referred to as sorcerers, but I think there's some nuance between how they use magic, and Willow, despite his intuition, certainly does not find his magic born within him. He doesn't necessarily have a natural gift for it, but rather finds careful study and many of years practice aiding him in becoming the magician he is by the time of the series, not to mention receiving a spellbook at the end of the movie. I struggled for a little while to decide what his subclass is, as we only really see him doing generalist magic. That said, war magic or order of scribes are out, seeing as he isn't a battlemage at all, nor does his spellbook play as important of a role as a scribe's would. So, considering his feats of returning Raziel to her human form, and restoring the Galladoorn warriors, transmutation feels like the most apt option for him.

Madmartigan: Human Swashbuckler Rogue/Battle Master FIghter. I had initially thought Madmartigan would be a champion, but thinking back on his fight against the Nockmaar soldiers, I think it's fair to say that he exemplifies the Art of War qualities that are so prevalent in the subclass. Swashbuckler is much more clear-cut. He nails one-on-one combat, and certainly has the high charisma necessary for the class, not to mention how he aids Franjean in picking the lock on the cage.

Sorsha Tanthalos: Human Hexblade Warlock. We don't see a lot of Sorsha's capabilities, so I'm gonna play flavor far more than mechanics with her. We know that she is a skilled fighter, and we see some of that, but I like the idea that her patron is her mother, and her pact ends after Bavmorda's defeat. She's certainly charismatic enough to trick Madmartigan into letting down his defenses enough to allow her a chance to escape from him, and was seemingly quite the leader in the quest for Elora, so I don't feel that this is too much of a stretch.

Rool/Franjean: Fairy Fey Wanderer Rangers. These two are interesting. I had almost made them gnomes, but I think them being fairies themselves (alongside the other Brownies) makes a bit more sense. They're definitely rangers, what with their affinity with animals, tracking abilities, and association with other fey creatures.

Airk Thaughbaer: Human Crown Paladin. We don't see a lot of Airk, but given that Madmartigan named his son after him, I think it's reasonable to put him on this list. He's kind of the ideal Galladoorn knight, fighting for country and fellow man against the forces of darkness. While I definitely think he's a paladin, other sublcasses might work for him.

Bavmorda: Tiefling Undead Warlock. Bavmorda being a tiefling is really only because she has the name "The Demon Queen." (And yes, I know that tieflings are infernal and not abyssal, but there isn't an abyssal race in D&D, so this is what I've got.) Her class and subclass seem pretty clear-cut. We find out in the series that she had made a pact with the Withered Crone, so she's clearly a warlock, though whether she's undead or undying is up for debate. In all honestly, they really aren't any different, and undead is just better.

General Kael: Human Berzerker Barbarian. Kael's so cool, but we also don't see much in the way of his combat ability. He's certainly very skilled, and he can also take a beating (the man took a sword to the face, and then kept fighting after getting stabbed), not to mention his shouting about "Now you die!" That feels very much like a raging barbarian to me.

Kit Tanthalos: Human Champion Fighter. Champion was my first choice for Kit, but I thought that I should dig deeper for her and kept trying to find something else. I've seen people say that she's a swashbuckler, or a battle master. I've even seem some people say that by the time she has taken the Kymerian Cuirass, she's gained three levels in artificer and become an armorer. And I hate all of that, because it's all too damn much. I think Kit's most important arc as a character is learning that she isn't the invnincible fighter she thought she was, and that her main character syndrome doesn't actually make her the main character. As far as that goes, I came back to champion, because I think the simplest fighter subclass conveys that journey really well.

Airk Thanthalos: Valor Bard/Oathbreaker Paladin. Airk is really interesting to me from a character creation perspective. He's clearly high charisma and low wisdom, and he isn't too shabby with a sword. He could very easily just be a paladin, and the Crone's corruption caused him to be an oathbreaker, but he's just too charming for me to not make him a bard too.

Jade Claymore: Human Samurai Fighter/Devotion Paladin. I've seen a lot of people say that Jade is a battle master, and while I see it, I think Samurai is a significantly more interesting choice for her. She's definitely not an average knight, and we can clearly see her wisdom in her fighting and her decision-making. As for paladin, Graydon aptly points out that her devotion is her driving force on the quest. If it's that important, than I'd say it counts as an oath.

Scorpia: Human Scout Rogue. There isn't a lot to go on for this one, unfortunately. She's clearly well-versed enough in combat to beat Jade, though I'd argue that she's simply a higher level. Being a scout would be beneficial for the forest-swelling Bone Reavers, and we see her have some skill with a throwing knife, which feels much like a roguish quality to me. (Ignore that Airk Thaughbaer also kills someone by throwing a knife.)

Thraxus Boorman: Human Berzerker Barbarian/Swashbuckler Rogue. I figured that Boorman was a barbarian/rogue early on, and was pleased when I saw some other people saying the same thing. I don't think Berzerker really fits him, but the only other non-magical barbarian sublcass is battle rager, and that fits him even less. (Seriously, there needs to be more non-magical barbarian subclasses.) It is possible that he never made it to three levels of barbarian, and just has a one or two level dip. (If i were to optimize him, it'd be two levels. That way reckless attack can be used to proc sneak attack at any opportunity.) I also don't think his rage is purely angry, but instead reflavored into sorrow that is masked with humor. As Madmartigan's squire, it makes sense that they would have the same rogue sublcass, and we definitely see Boorman's charisma shine through the series. Plus, like Madmartigan, he can pick locks. Ish.

Graydon Hastur: Human Lore Bard. Yeah, he's said to be a sorcerer in the show, but the man casts magic with his flute and gives other characters inspiring pep talks. If that doesn't make him a bard, I don't know what does. College of lore because he's very booksmart, and collects dead languages and ancient stories like an old lady collects little spoons.

Elora Danan: Protector Aasimar Divine Soul Sorcerer. And finally, the chosen one herself. I really wanted to make her wild magic, but divine soul unfortunately just makes more sense. I feel that of the sorcerers in the franchise, she's the only one that's actually a sorcerer. We don't know anything about how Raziel's magic works, so there's really no figuring her out, and Cherlindrea is more of an archfey than anything else. Elora, on the other hand, has an inborn aptitude for magic. She still has to practice, and reads Willow's spellbook, but that's more about control than power for her. As the child of the prophecy, and the one destined to defeat evil and unite the lands, it makes sense to me that she would be an aasimar, a divine being imbued with the power of celestials. She also has the chef feat.

There's certain characters that I left out, either because we don't see enough of them for me to properly gauge what they might be, or I think they'd be better with monster stat blocks than character sheets. But maybe I'll revisit this later and figure out characters like Silas, Lilli, and Ballantine. In any case, let me know if you disagree, I'd love to hear what everyone else thinks.

2 & 4 for the tav questions

For question 2: Most of the character creation was spot on and I liked it BUT- I wanted them to have a bit more chub (:

Sorsha also goes by She/They equally.

Another smaller detail is about their eyes: yes, they have David Bowies eyes. Yes, it’s silly. No, I will not change this.

For question 4 on meeting companions:

1. Shadowheart: Saved her on the ship but then promptly tried to steal from her while she was knocked out on the beach. Oops.

2. Astarion: TRIED TO CUT SORSHAS THROAT! Hopefully she doesn’t catch feelings for this vampire 👀👀👀 (also though Astarion says they definitely run into different circles in Baldurs Gate- it’s highly likely they’ve been at some of the same parties in recent years but never ran into each other. Sorsha was constantly sneaking into parties)

3. Gale: Sorsha and Gale had the most friendly meeting. Sorsha immediately knew that this guy was friend-shaped and dug his goofy vibe.

4: Lae’zel: After meeting her on ship, Sorsha isn’t entirely sure what to make of her in act 1. She honestly finds her brutality quite perplexing. Initially she wanted to interview Lae’zel to create some short stories and tales about Lae’zel’s battle prowess- but quickly learned that would never happen.

5: Wyll: What a sweetie, all interview ideas she had for Lae’zel she knew she’d do for Wyll instead. Sorsha is a sucker for heroes mainly because she finds them so entertaining.

6: Karlach: Karlach’s general attitude is very refreshing in a way that Sorsha never knew she needed when she met. Sorsha is very used to beating around the bush in previous friendship but Karlach’s bluntness and kindness immediately went straight to the bard’s heart.

Wanna ask a question? Here’s the list I’m pulling from:

[commanderbuffy]

Other ridiculous ideas to add to the list that I think would be really funny:

a reality show or like a behind the scenes documentary, instead of keeping up with the Kardashian’s it’s Taking it easy with the Tanthalos’s, in my head they are like modern day royalty but the monarchies of whatever country they would’ve ran are over, trashed, guillotined and sorsha only agrees because she want to improve her image or take control of some narrative

kit and Jade get married and divorced young and they both go on love is blind “to find love”, with some meddling from Elora and boorman, they both somehow don’t realize it’s one another for some reason (idk fanfic rules) and when they meet for the first time it’s chaos and angst

please enjoy this nonsense pt2

The love is blind idea is really cool 👀

Top 9 Favourite MaasVerse Couples

I did a favourites list of couples in the Shadowhunter universe last year that was really fun so I thought I would do one with all of the couples from Sarah J. Maas’ universe, especially after reading A Court of Silver Flames (review coming soon). Because of all that and given that Sarah J. Maas never fails to be sneaky with which guy the main character ends up with in the end, this favourites list will be full of spoilers. So like before, the top couples all are couples that for sure end up together, while the honorable mentions are couples that I like or ones that I think would be good together or who I want to be together. 

Honorable Mentions

To start off we have character couples that I love but don’t know enough about to be super invested.

Amren & Varian- from ACOTAR. I just think that they are so cute and I love Amren and I’m so happy that she has someone who is there for her. I also think Varian is an interesting character who is the perfect balance for Amren’s intensity, also at all the family gatherings with Varian there, he just feels like the typical come-home-for-christmas-with-a-guy boyfriend who the family gets to know, but also plays around with because he’s new (don’t know if that makes sense, but if you’ve ever had a sibling or cousin bring a partner home for the holidays to a joking-around type family then you’ll get it).

Kallias & Viviane- from ACOTAR. Also don’t know a lot about them, but for the few interactions we see of them, I think they are super cute! The other courts always intrigued me, but especially the Winter Court because I love snow and I also love how close Kallias, Viviane, Rhysand, and Morrigan are (especially Viviane and Mor). I just think it’s so nice that they have other friends in other courts, and again they just seem sweet. 

Juniper Andromeda & Fury Axtar- from Crescent City. We only find out that they are a couple near the end, but from the few times we see them together, I think Juniper and Fury are adorable. Fury is just that super badass bitch that I love to see vulnerable in a couple. I just like seeing that badass girls can still have a very raw and human side, especially when they are with their significant other. Also Juniper was always a favourite minor character throughout the book because she’s such a good friend to Bryce. I can’t wait to see more of them as a couple in the next books!

Next I have people who I want to end up together:

Ruhn Danaan & Hypaxia Enador- from Crescent City. I thought Ruhn and the mediwitch had a great amount of chemistry, and when it was revealed that she was actually the young Queen Hypoxia of the witches, I was so excited! I feel like her and Ruhn will end up together, and because I love Ruhn and just want to see him happy, I think that the two of them as a couple would be great!

Morrigan & Emerie- from ACOTAR (more specifically ACOSF). When Emerie saw Mor in the latest book, I giggled so hard! I think the two of them would be adorable and it’s high time that Mor got a new love interest who will make her happy. (I also really want Emerie to be happy now that I’ve gotten to know her more as a character, and I do think the two of them would work really well together!)

Elain & Lucien // Azriel & Gwyneth- from ACOTAR. This next one I won’t talk a lot about because I’m saving it for the review for ACOSF, but just so you know what side of the debate I’m on, I really do think Lucien and Elain would be good together if Elain gave him a chance, and now since reading the special edition short story about Azriel at the end of ACOSF, I ship Azriel and Gwyn together. (Although I’ll honestly be happy with whoever ends up together as long as all the characters are happy!)

Nyx & Unborn Child of Rowaelin- from ACOTAR and Throne of Glass. I saw this post one day of someone shipping Nyx (Rhys and Feyre’s son), and the unborn daughter of Rowan and Aelin, I fangirled so hard! No matter if Rowan and Aelin have a girl or boy first, I already ship them so hard with Nyx. We already know that Nyx would have been born during the time of the war at the end of Kingdom of Ash (because Aelin fell through the worlds and saw pregnant Feyre and Rhys standing during Winter Solstice) so if Aelin and Rowan had a child not long after, they would be close to the same age, and because of that moving between worlds moment, we know that’s it’s possible for the two kids to meet one day. (Also I have a theory that what happens in the Crescent City books will tie into the possibility of world jumping because it’s already talked about in there how most species in Crescent City came from different worlds, so yay!) I know that this is all just wishful thinking, but I think that would be the cutest thing Nyx being together with Rowaelin’s child! Let me believe what I want to.

9. Nesryn Faliq & Sartaq

This list was so hard to make and I’m sad that these two are so low on it, but I just couldn’t get them any higher! At any rate, I loved these two during Tower of Dawn and when they ended up together I was ecstatic! First of all, I think Sartaq would be an amazing Khagan of the Southern Continent and he’s honestly the only real good one of his siblings. Him and Nesryn leading the Southern Continent will be amazing and I love the way that they bonded over riding the ruks. I do wish that we got to see them even more, but considering all of the characters and storylines, I was still satisfied with the development of their relationship and themselves as characters (just want more content with anything from the Throne of Glass series because I know it’s over and that makes me sad!)

8. Dorian Havilliard & Manon Blackbeak

Next is another couple that I love so much but had to put lower on the list because there are just too many great couples in the Sarah J. Maas universe! I never thought that Dorian and Aelin (or Celaena at the time) would be good together, but was absolutely heartbroken when Sorsha died. BUT that death did lead to so much sexual tensions between Dorian and Manon that it was all worth it! I love these two because, again, it is so nice to see a badass female character also have a loving side, but also seems pretty “dominant” (for a lack of better word) in the relationship. I think Manon and Dorian are so great together, and their banter and cute nicknames (Princeling and Witchling) just gave me life! Even though the end of Kingdom of Ash left me completely shattered, I was very happy that Dorian and Manon still had each other, and I think the two of them will be great monarchs in their separate kingdoms, but also together.

7. Elide Lochan & Lorcan Salvaterre

Another amazing couple from the Throne of Glass series! Even though Lorcan was kind of an asshole when you first met him, when he and Elide had their whole adventure together, I fell in love with the two (especially Lorcan). I love a good “bad” boy “good” girl trope, and Lorcan and Elide were definitely that perfect fit. The way that Lorcan cared so much for Elide while they had to travel together was really cute, and I was so happy to see how Lorcan softened up and Elide became strong as well. It was nice that they still weren’t the typical weak girl, always rescued by the strong Fae. Lorcan and Elide made each other show the world their other sides as well. 

6. Nesta Archeron & Cassian

This couple I have a lot of thoughts and feelings about but most of that will be in my ACOFS review coming soon, but for now I will just say that I LOVE them! We always knew that Nesta and Cassian were probably going to end up together, but still their journey as individuals and a couple was so fantastic to read. The way that the two of them helped each other out in terms of mental health while still being the individually strong characters was so good to see. Their sexual tension was great to read, and I loved the way that their whole story arc developed through the book.

5. Chaol Westfall & Yrene Towers

Again, I loved these two so much probably because they had their own book practically dedicated to them. I loved Chaol in the first two books from the Throne of Glass series, but like most people, I lost that love as the series went on. Going into Tower of Dawn I was really worried that I wasn’t going to like it because of Chaol being the central character, but like always, Sarah J. Maas writes such good redemption and flawed character arcs that it was impossible not to love Chaol again, and the woman who brought the light back to him. Similarly, I really liked Yrene when we first met her in The Assassin’s Blade stories (The Assassin and the Healer), and I was so happy that we got to learn more about her in the whole Tower of Dawn book. The way that Chaol and Yrene went from hating each other to falling in love was done absolutely perfectly, and by Kingdom of Ash when we found out that Yrene was pregnant, I almost threw my book in happiness, I was so excited. This couple is well deserving of the number five spot!

4. Aedion Ashryver & Lysandra

Now we have another favourite couple from the Throne of Glass series (that series is just so big and full of characters, most of the people on this list are from there). I really loved the idea of Aedion and Lysandra from the beginning when we start to see Lysandra play a bigger role in the series. Again, it’s the banter between these two characters that gets me every time, and the way they make fun of each other while also flirting is just so great to read. I was a little worried about what was going to happen to their relationship in Kingdom of Ash, especially since everything was going so well in Empire of Storms and then ended so badly at the end, but knowing that they got married almost immediately after the war was exactly what I needed. Also I LOVED Aedion with Evangeline and all their interactions, which was also why I knew that Aedion had to end up with Lysandra. Every time a kid comes into the picture I feel like I ship that couple just a bit harder. The three of them make the most perfect family. 

3. Bryce Quinlan & Hunt Athalar

I know that technically we don’t know for sure if these two will be endgame, but if they aren’t I will sob and never forgive SJM! I love these two with all my heart and the only reason that they are in number three (and not higher!) is because we only have one book with them. I would not be surprised if they went up higher on my list after the next books come out. First of all, their sexual tension is fabulous. Second, I just adored how they both helped each other health through the book  and how they went through so much together emotionally. I feel like that made the strongest foundation for a relationship, and if that foundation breaks, I think I might just dig myself a hole and stay there. While both are strong characters separately, they are just so much better together! Every scene of them was like magic, and they were the whole reason I could stop reading HOEAB. I need the next books so badly, just because I need to see them together more!

2. Aelin Ashryver Galathynius & Rowan Whitethorn

Finally at the top two, and this decision was probably the hardest one I’ve ever had to make. I love both Rowaelin and Feysand so much, this was impossible to decide, but it came down to the fact that out of every SJM book, A Court of Mist and Fury is my favourite. That book is a f*cking masterpiece and the reason for that is because of Feysand. So Rowaelin is second. Aelin and Rowan are amazing characters individually, but like the reason for all of these favourite couples, the journey that they go on together and help each other through, is what makes them so special and so strong as a couple. Rowan helped Aelin in a way that Chaol or Dorian never could, and Aelin in turn helped Rowan through centuries of pain just because they understood each other so well. The best and strongest part of all these couples is that they became friends first, before going into a romantic relationship (except for Nessian a couple others, but you know what I mean). Being able to create a strong bond before anything physical is so important with these characters, especially helping them get through so much trauma, and ultimately seeing that growth on the page connects you so much more with them as a couple. Seeing these characters go through so much together was really what made me love them to this degree (which is a high degree) which is also why I’m having a hard time believing that their stories are done. I will always need more Rowaelin content. 

1. Feyre Archeron & Rhysand

And now we’re at the top. Like I just said, this was a hard decision, but it also feels so right. Feyre and Rhysand had an amazing development as a couple through the books, and A Court of Mist and Fury is definitely my favourite SJM book precisely because we see their relationship develop. I am beyond happy that we aren’t at the end of the ACOTAR world and we get to see more Feysand in the years and books to come, because I am not ready at all to say goodbye yet. Just thinking of Feyre and Rhys’ lives now (especially with Nyx) brings a smile to my face, and I think that it's amazing how an author and a book can do that. Both Feyre and Rhysand’s characters are so strong and their journeys were so heart wrenching to follow but so worth it at the same time. There is really nothing bad I can say about this couple, besides the fact that I want to thank Sarah J. Maas for writing such great characters, and I can’t wait to see more to come!

Thanks to anyone who read to the end. I know it was a long ramble again. Stay tuned for my ACOSF review coming soon as well.

Until next time!

Aurora Game Report

So I got a few games in testing out Aurora and the list I posted last time. I wanted to get one of the harder matchups down on (Electronic) paper, as it was against a matchup I think she would struggle with – Khador.

So my opponent was bringing Sorscha 2, with two Grolar’s, widowmakers, widowmaker marksman, Behemoth, two supporting jack marshals with him, and a unit of Kayzee gang members with the underboss, and two small units of Kayazee assassins.

The Scenario was breakdown, and we had a good selection of terrain. Bothe sides had some water to deal with, while a building dominated the centre zone. A trench occupied the right circle, and a wall was in the left, with a forest above it, and a hill below it.

She won the roll and chose to go second, to take the forest as protection against charges on her caster, and since her Grolars and widowmakers have pathfinder, she could ignore it when she required. Behemoth went on the right side, supported by the jack marshals, whilst the kayazee gang went down the centre. The assassins each took a flank, to be able to get the zones if they cleared.

I had deployed rather symmetrically. With aurora in the centre, flanked by the Conservitors, and the Corollary beside her. The Recipricators took to her left, then the obstructors went on the flanks, and behind them the eradicators. The foundries spaced themselves out to get all the models as the back line. The advanced move got the shield wall units up to the 12” line, and we started the game.

Turn 1 was lots of running. Aurora used the building for cover, then the Conservitors moved to in front of her to form a wall that she could hide behind. The recipricators shield walled, but with aerogenesis and the advanced move, they were already 19” up the board. The obstructors ran to get themselves half way across the board, and the rest followed.

Her turn was not so much running. The Behemoth walked forwards and took two double boosted shots at the obstructors in the zone, killing 3, which I got the souls for. On the other side, the widowmakers had shatterstorm cast on them, and they targeted the obstructors on that side. She killed two with the shots, removing them from play and so I could not bring them back, and two with the aoe, but I had also put a group of obstructors behind the wall, close enough for the aoe to get them, but the increased defence meant the widowmakers missed (Plus some awful rolls). The marksman shot at another obstructor and killed him, but I took the soul.

The grolars ran up to the other side of the forest, to give the a good charge into the left zone, whilst the assassins ran into the zones to contest and be a pain to remove, and then ended her turn.

I looked on if I should feat, but I was not close enough to get enough charges off with everything. So I held it off for a turn. Casting Aerosgenisis with aurora, and upkeeping Admonition, she moved into the corner of the building to hide. The conservitors moved to her side to continue blocking line of sight, and the corollary continued up to gain a second focus.

The obstructors in the right zone were refreshed by the foundry, and they charged the assasins on the edge of the zone if they could. Some really lucky rolls with 2 two man CMA’s killed both assasins, clearing the zone for me.

The recipricators got set defence up and moved into the centre zone and shield walled themselves, and the eradicators charged over them to get the gang members. I was only in range of one, and the rest ran to get a better position for the next turn. The gang members died to the 2 attacks, with sidesteps getting me deep into his lines.

On the left, the obstructors tried to copy their compatriots but missed one of the rolls, even with more for the CMA. One obstructor did use his run to engage 2 of the widowmakers, to stop them shooting next turn. The eradicators moved up, and one of them engaged the grolar, with the idea af dying to trigger vengeance, then making the rest of the unit in the zone to score.

Her turn, power up dealt with the focus she wanted to give out, and apart from upkeeping shatterstorm, sat on the focus. The last assassin moved away from  the obstructors to kill the one engaging the widowmakers, and they proceded to kill the grouped up obstructors, removing two from play, and damaging the eradicators engaging the grolar. The Marksman took his shot did some more damage to the eradicator, and the gang members charged it and the recipricators to take the eradicator down. The Recipricators weathered the hit, taking only 2 points of damage, and the 2nd unit of eradicators lost a model too. The now free grolar charged into another eradicator in the zone, killing it in one blow. It then shot around the corner into the conservitor, doing 6 damage. The other grolar moved back to protect Sorsha. She was able to contest the left zone, but luckily she stood still with the behemoth to kill the grouped up obstructors on the right side, and nothing went into the right zone to contest, scoring me one point.

I apparitioned the Conservitor to a better charge position, and used the vengeance moves for all the eradicators and Recipricators to reduce the gang members to just 2 men. My opponent made the mistake of measuring the distance between Behemoth and Aurora, so I knew this was a problem. The corollary moved up to give all three of its focus to the conservitor facing the grolar in the zone, and the foundries moved up and revived the eradicators to full strength, along with 3 obstructors in the right zone. The other conservitor moved into the zone to score it, as long as I got it clear…

Aurora feated and cast areogenisis , took a shot at the grolar, which missed, then moved as far back as she could. I only missed 2 obstructors on the far right, otherwise everything was in for the feat benefit. The Eradicators on the left charged into the Assassin and gang member nearby the zone, killing them and clearing out the charge lane to the grolar. They then reformed back into the zone to be able to score. The Conservitor charged in, with the hand of vengeance triggered by the killing of the eradicator last turn putting it up to mat 8 and pow 17. With hindsight, I should have just moved up and thrown the grolar out of the zone, but I tried to kill it instead. I ended up leaving it with only its right arm working, and moved back out of its melee range. The obstructors tried a charge at it, but only one was in arc and not revived, so I did not kill it, but they moved out to encircle it with their weapons at max range, to force it to take free strikes if it moved. But it was still there to contest the zone…

On the right side, the other eradicators killed the last of the gang members, and one got a good charge into the jack marshal of behemoth, killing him with two attacks. One had also ran into behemoth to stop him targeting Aurora, and they reformed to get in the way.

The Recipricators charged into the other grolar, also knocking it down to about 6 boxes, and only having its left arm working. They then reformed to surround it on all sides, whilst staying outside of Sorchas melee range and not be made stationary. Again, the grolar would not be able to move without taking a free strike, which could kill it. In the end, I scored 2 more points, getting me up to 3-0, and I passed the turn over to her. I also checked my clock, and I was only at 30 mins, which is really good for me at the end of my 3rd turn!

She looked hard at the table, and realised that she could only delay my win for one turn, by contesting the right zone, but then I would win on my own turn. The only other option was to try an assassination with the grolar with its gun. It was out of range, but Sorcha was able to cyclone up to free up one of the free strikes with a hit, and get Aurora in the feat as well. She cast a nuke at the other engaging obstructor but missed, and when the grolar tried to move away the single free strike took out its arm, making it now unable to hit aurora with her high defence. Looking at the rest of the field, my opponent ended her turn to get me up to the 5 -0 win.

Review: I thought my list could not crack armour. I was right about that. The arm 20 on those jacks meant that I could not put equal points into it and win, but I can start layering my attacks under feat to get the job done. I must also remember power attacks.

The Conservitor wall around Aurora works well. It is not foolproof, but having them also be shield guards helps, along with her high defence. And the speed of the units is scary. My opponent said that having 20 models on the halfway line before she had one anything worried her, as did having to dal with vengeance on all the high wound models. Add in the recursion and the game was a slog for her, and she plays against a 60+ cryx mechanithrall list regularly!

I like the list and how it plays, and I suspect it will work well against my intended targets, Cygnar, Ret and Legion. All higher than normal defences on the jacks and casters, but average armour. The speed should allow me to get to the opponent fast, and aurora should be able to stay back and keep safe until she need to get up there.

Its main weakness will still be any heavy metal lists, and I need to practice into those bad matchups, and go for the scenario or assassination win… but I have a tournament on Oct 1st in Northampton again, so more feedback then!

Sorsha I mean like omega style where both reader and hannie gets pregnant ( please make this a fic)

Ooohhh…. I do like this idea, but first I’ll need to research more about the omegaverse. My knowledge is quite limited.

I’m definitely not saying no to this, and am putting it on my list of ideas.
