My Wolf Lord and CHaos Lord
Game was scored 13 to 5 in my favor (I scored 10 Strategy points, First Blood, Line Breaker and Slay the Warlord)
This was my first game of 7th Ed using Strategy Cards, and I had a blast. I was making moves I normally wouldnt make to acheive the points (like tossing TWC on a Objective rather than into Cultists or having my Wolf Lord charge a Havoc unit alone).

I *think* my opponent and good friend Rayray may have been taking it easy on me, as this was the first Maelstrom game I played and only 3rd game of 7th ed. I saw him earlier run circles around a Ork player using the Daemonolgy powers, essentially bringing in 2 new units every turn. (I asked him point blank if he did, which he denied. I doubt he would as we've gamed together for years and got a good rivalry going)

 

He ran Biomancy against me, but couldnt face down the Thunderwolf Pack Leader.

 

I know I caught him by surprise a few times, such as the Ven Dread with Axe+Shield making a 10in charge into his Lord's Biker unit, or my Wolf Lord surviving a round of shooting from the Oblits all by his lonesome. The Thunderwolves surprised me, as I am used to everybody having a counter for them. the lower cost and added special CC weapon really adds to their punch.

 

The cards were really in my favor, with rarely a turn going by I couldnt add a few points to my total.
