The Motherland went to the WTC

I'm have been representing the Motherland at the WTC in Belgium this year. This was a first for me. It is the last time MKIII will be played as MKIV was recently been announced. I brought Old Witch 2 along with her half-naked crazed people in Wolves of Winter and Karchev 2 with all the Warjacks he could find in Jaws of the Wolf. I'm happy with how I performed. I'm excited and I'll be returning in 2023. So, here are some impressions.

Vladimir Tzepesci, the Dark Prince (Vlad1) vs. Kaelyssa, Night's Whisper (Kaelyssa1)

The pointy eared xenophobes are on the move again. Since the Infernals have been kicked out of Khador, the Retribution are attempting to get rid of the few remaining humans with magic. Luckily, Vlad1 is back with his relentless Winter Guards. They have been affected by the quality of life update and are now ready to once again defend the Motherland's borders. The battle is fierce, However, Vlad is a bit rusty and has to face defeat against Kaelyssa and her Defenders of Ios. 

Vladimir Tzepesci, the Dark Prince (Vlad1) vs. vs. Lord Ghyrrshyld, the Forgiven (Goreshade4)

Goreshade is back with the elves. This should be a battle well suited for Vlad and his fantastic Winter Guards. However, Vlad (or rather the man behind the lines) has a really crappy day. The battle quickly boils down to an excellent demonstration of "what not to do", "how to use the clock most inefficient", and "consequences of no planning". This is not the proudest day in the Winter Guards annals. Vlad will have a discussion with the man behind the lines.

Goreshade is making trouble again. Last time he managed to get the better of Irusk and his Winter Guards. This time the responsibility falls to Vlad. He brings the new hard hitting Winter Guard Kommand list, including two of the wonderful Gun Carriages. However, he is not the only one bringing Battle Engines. Goreshade is bringing a Trident, which turns out to be quite dangerous. However, the crazy elves are no match for Vlad and a Marauders in assassination mood.

Supreme Kommandant Irusk (Irusk2) vs. Lord Ghyrrshyld, the Forgiven (Goreshade4)

The elves are restless tonight. Goreshade has brought some of his brethren into Khadoran territories to hunt for innocent potential warcasters to the Empress army. Irusk brings his trusted winter guards to deal with this menace. This list decimation of the Ios forces. However, once a Helios digs in, it proves very difficult to remove.
