Game 3 vs james
Was a 1000pt battle with me as the defender. The scenario was fleet engagement.
James
Retribution Battleship
Lunar class cruiser
Dictator Class cruiser
dauntless light cruiser
3? Swords
Will
Mars class Battle cruiser (The Dragon)
Dictator Class Cruiser (Admiral Hood)
Gothic Class Cruiser (Rama)
Dominator Class Cruiser (Discovery)
3 Firestorm Class Frigates (from The Fire starters)
Started off well with me putting a lunar down to one hit point in the initial stages of the game, annoyingly my torpedo's exploded in blast markers and my bombers suddenly decided not to hit so I couldn't quite kill it. The swords and dauntless managed to survive a few nova bombs and quite a bit of firepower with virtually no damage. In revenge the Discovery was crippled but fought on.
Mid game was a fight for position with a few damage points traded either side but no real damage. most notable where my bombers being unable to do anything...
Late game a few good hits on the dragon lead to her being crippled, but I managed to get in a brilliant position behind jame's fleet but was unable to capitalise on it. At this point with two crippled cruisers, another with two hits taken and a crippled escort squadron I decided to cut my losses and disengage.
Everything passed except the gothic which proceeded to fail its leadership test three times and as a result was crippled.
end result 190Vps to james and 50? to me. (Both failed our subplots)
Was a good game and very close. A few dice rolls coming up differently would have changed everything.
James gained 5 renown and I Lost 1
I withdrew the dragon, discovery and Rama. used my two repair points on the fire starters bringing them back to full health
Admiral Hood went up a Leadership.
I succeeded in rolling reinforcements going to bring in another dominator.
James succeed in a refit adding a left column shift to the batteries on the retribution, withdrew the lunar and used his repair points (can't remember how many) to bring his fleet back up to full strength.
