This weekend, I played my 3rd league match using the Ossiarch Bonereapers. I lost miserably.

Conclusions
– Like any game, a tuned list generally performs better than a list full of things
– If you want to be competitive, you need board control
– Running and hiding is acceptable
– Knowing thy enemy is important

Our lists are as follows.

Bonereapers		Ogors
Nagash	900	Tyrant	160
Deathriders x3	600	Leadbelchers	150
Mortisan Ossifactor	110	Gluttons Reinforced	480
Morghast Archai	270	Butcher	150
Mortek Guard	120	Ironblaster	200
		Frostlord on Stonehorn	320
		Mounfang Pack (reinforced)	360
		Mounrfang Pack	180

My opponent was very aggressive and recklessly rushed forth with a small mournfang pack to take one of our neutral objectives.

I quickly destroyed this unit and thought that the lower side of the board would be clear. I underestimated the swiftness of his units. I also thought my morghasts and more guard would be able to hold a stronger line than they actually did.

Turn 2 I pulled back a little to stay out of charge range while pushing my cavalry up the other side. Nagash was shooting off his 9 spells every turn.

Turn 3 is where I lost the game. Nagash had to make a 5-inch charge against my opponent’s Stonehorn, and I missed. I also allowed him to charge my morghasts and mortek guard, destroying them. Really just all-around lousy play. I missed several abilities, such as Nagash being able to heal units. I poorly charged my cavalry and morghasts allowing his stonehorn to countercharge, damage the morghasts, and still not be in combat.

At the start of turn 4, I did plan on conceding. I had a chance, maybe with a double turn, but the double turn did not happen. He killed every unit except Nagash. There was just zero chance of me catching up. Nagash was only in charge range of his lead belchers and gluttons, and there was no way I was doing 40 damage there.
