Game 3
So two rounds done and we still have all 5 factions represented. The next 5 warbeasts are:
Bull Snapper: Spiny growth might help him out but he has to take damage to cause damage but free charges are always a good thing.
Trollblood Impaller: Snipe and Critical Smite should come in handy if he can knock a few out of the ring.
Laris is Kaya's companion. Most of its abilities will be useless here. Maybe speed will help.
Naga Nightlurker spits poison and can bind a beast for a turn. Meh!!!
The Cyclops Shaman looks more like a heavy infantry than a warbeast a big spear though could help it.
Turn 1. Naga first moves 3" forward. Laris moves 3"as well. Impaller moves 3" then snipes at Laris but is out of range. Bull Snapper charges Naga, fails and uses spiny growth. Shaman moves towards the Bull Snapper and shoots doing 8 dmg taking out its mind. Not a good start for the bull snapper then.
Turn 2. Naga moves 3"as does Laris. Impaller moves 3"and shoots at Laris but misses. Bull Snapper charges Naga misses attack and uses spiny growth.
Turn 3. Naga attacks the Bull Snapper does 3 dmg and get 3 back from spiny growth. Laris slams the Impaller and knocks him outside the ring and takes a total of 9 dmg. Impaller gets up and moves inside the barrier. boosts to hit Laris and knocks him out of the barrier dong a total of 11 dmg. Bull Snapper kills the Naga so gets to regen but is killed by the Shaman who shoots him down.
Turn 4. Laris slams the Impaller but he stays in the ring Impaller stands up boosts to shoot Laris and knocks him out of the ring killing him. Shaman shoots Impaller and does 9 damage but leaves him with spirit which allows him to regen next turn.
Turn 5 to end. So the Impaller regens enough for all systems to be working. Shoots at the shaman and does 10 damage. This is like a game of tennis using darts. Shaman shoots the Impaller for 2. The Impaller regens then shoots the Shaman for 9 more damage. Shaman misses the Impaller then the Impaller finishes him off.

After this fight the Impaller was my favorite to win the whole deal. The throwing match between Laris and the Impaller was funny to watch but shows how the event differs so much from a normal battle.
Game 4
Minions only has 4 light warbeasts so they are out now, so this round only has 4 contestants.
We start with the Nephilim Soldier. Heavy hitter with reach but its animus is better suited to smaller models.
Next we have the Storm Troll. I have never used this guy before but electroleap is a good thing.
Now Gorax really should be classed a medium warbeast or at least a small heavy but here he is in the light weight division. Primal is great but it could get him in to trouble if not used wisely.
Last up is the Cyclops Savage. Reach weapon and future sight which may save on fury.
This should be a good fight. Only the Storm troll has a ranged attack and with two reach weapon-ed beasts he wont be able to hide for long.
Turn 1. The Setup
They all run for the center the soldier heads for Gorax (the fool)
Turn 2. A lot of shimmying for position this turn.
Turn3. Gorax shimmies, Savage charges Storm Troll but is out of range. Storm Troll charges Savage boosts to hit but misses. Misses second shot as well. Soldier moves to the center and braces.
Turn 4. Gorax moves to the center, Savage attacks the Storm Troll hits 4x for 19 damage but Storm Troll's spirit still there. Storm Troll regens 2 throws the Savage 2 1/2" at the Soldier but no damage. Soldier charges the Savage and does 8 dmg. Walls move in and kill the Storm troll.
Turn 5. Gorax shimmies, Savage attacks the Soldier does 7 dmg total then Soldier moves inside the wall zone.
Turn 6. Gorax goes Primal then charges Soldier and kills him. Savage moves behind Gorax and head butts gorax for 9 damage and knocks him down.
Turn 7. Gorax stands up and and frenzies bu does no damage. Savage hits back for 6 more dmg.
Turn 8. Gorax goes Primal and wipes the floor with the savage to take out the win. No real surprise there. I was never in doubt this guy was going to win this round.
