Guild Ball: Cook's Reveal 'Roast'

Even though 'Roast' for the new Cook's Guild has been leaked since the start of Season 4, today Steamforged Games officially revealed the card for 'Roast'.

You can read more about him on Steamforged Games site HERE.

I am really looking forward to getting the Cook's Guild in my hands and trying them on the Pitch.




Battle Report: Guild Ball 2/17/2019 Butcher's vs Hunter's

With Bourbon Trail Open IV fast approaching this weekend, and missing out on an event this past Saturday, my son and I were able to squeeze in a game last night.

I felt like playing a change today, so I went with 'Fillet' as my Captain to get a little bit more practice with her, but I was actually stunned when I saw my son throw down 'Skatha' instead of 'Theron'.  This was definitely going to be a little different now.


 Fillet
Princess
Boiler
V Ox
Brisket
Boar
 Skatha
Snow
V Minx
Seenah
Chaska
Ulfr

I do not recall all the exact details, but here quick breakdown: Hunter's went up early 4-0 with a Screamer Goal from 'Skatha'.  Butcher's came back with a Taken Outs to make the game 4-2.  When 'Skatha' came back onto the Pitch, she managed to retrieve the ball and go in for another score giving the Hunter's a 8-2 lead.  The Butcher's Goal Kick was placed perfectly for 'Brisket' to activate and go on a goal run herself.... Screaming Goal for 'Brisket', 8-6 Hunter's.  Butcher's then were able to get Taken Outs on 'Seenah' and 'Chaska' giving them the lead now 10-8.  Top of Turn 3 and the Butcher's won initiative and now need to decide on either finishing off 'Skatha' or going for 'Veteran Minx'.  The Butcher's decided to load up an engaged 'Fillet' and start stabbing 'Skatah' to death.  With a 5 DEF on 'Skatha' it did take quite a few stabbings to finally bring her down for a Butcher's win 12-8.  If 'Fillet' would have faltered, 'Ulfr' was within scoring range with the ball and easily would have won the game with another goal.

This game was a nice change of pace with both sides actually doing some scoring.  I can myself possibly trying this list again this weekend, we shall see.

Weekly Chronicle 2019 #7 (Week of Bourbon Trail Open IV)

Seven weeks into 2019 and honestly I am way behind on what I had set myself out to complete for this year.  I have only played 6 games of Guild Ball, 4 of Destiny and that is it, I only finished painting 1 model and that was 'Rookie Seenah' way back at the beginning of January.  I had really expected to have more games of Guild Ball in by now, along with a few of X-Wing.  AdeptiCon is coming next month and I have no practice games of X-Wing in, I think next week it will be time to sliding in a game a week.

This past week was almost a pretty pathetic week for me, but yesterday made some of it back up.  I was suppose to play in a Guild Ball event on Saturday up in Grand Rapids, but some personal business I had to get done had me driving to Chicago for the day, there went 4 games I could have played.  Luckily yesterday evening my son and I were able to squeeze a practice game in (short report coming later).  Also yesterday morning I actually did a lot of work on 'Veteran Calculus' and she will be getting finished up today, so at least for next week I will have a model completed.

With Bourbon Trail Open IV coming up this weekend, we may try and get in another practice game tonight (but part of me is leaning towards a little X-Wing) since next Saturday is going to be a very long day.  With over 40 players registered, it looks like it will be a 6 Round event.  I know I have no chance in winning, let alone winning an actual game, but since we are driving all the way down there and spending money on a hotel, I am going to try and play as many rounds as possible.  More than likely I will play in 5 rounds and then probably drop the final round so I can watch the top table and enjoy some bourbon (but we'll see what my record is going into the final round).  At least that will get me 5-6 games of Guild Ball for the week and add to my yearly total, my goal for the year is to get in 50 games of Guild Ball.

Models Completed: 0

Games Played: 1
