Hog-on-Hog Violence

Hey, everyone! Chase “Gunum” Garber here with the exciting conclusion of my breakdown of the Iron Halo Major GT. When we last left our dark and brooding green hero, he was falling into a deep depression as the realization of pure Eldar aerial superiority closing on him. After going through a 3-0 first day, with moderate scores to support my clear Dark Angel purity, I was to be paired up with Ryan Olson. A fellow Warhog. The Eldar Warhog, 11th in Aeldari, and current pilot of a 6 Eldar flyer list. I had to steel myself. I had to find my faith in my secret, Dark Angel heart. I wanted to win. I wanted to prove my three elite models could stand up to 6 high damage flyers with the right focus on play choice, I wanted…

Five more drinks.

In this write-up, since the subject matter and my list was a bit more fleshed out in the first part, I will be focusing on how I ended up where I did in my planning for a game against an opponent I deeply respect on the table, and how we can try and prepare to play against a hard counter to our lists.

[Editor’s Note: Chase and ANAmal.net wrote an excellent Start/Stop Competing Dark Angels article, you can find it here.]
