Mammoth batreps, Part 5 - pHexeris

This is part two of last week's Mammoth games. I managed to squeeze in two test games with the Mammoth, trying him with 2 different casters. Following the Lord Assassin, we have Lord Tyrant Hexeris. pHexeris is a neat caster, and one I feel like I haven't been using enough lately. He was my second caster right after pMorghoul battlebox games, and was a favorite for a long time. eHex kind of stole the spotlight for a while, but pHex has some awesome answers to some hard matchups, particularly eGaspy.

This game was against one of our local Menoth players, though lately he's been playing around with Retribution, along with a bit of Skorne on the side. This week he had his Ret, and was playing with an interesting Garryth list. Since we both at least own models from both Skorne and Ret, we both knew each others tricks and stats... for the most part

My List

* Krea

Mammoth batreps, Part 4 - eMorghoul

Another week, another Mammoth battle report! so far I've used several of the casters that people have been talking a lot about with the Mammoth. pMakeda, eHexeris and even Rasheth all have something to offer the Mammoth. This week I finally got to a caster that might not be amazing with the new shiny toy. eMorghoul was the next caster on the list (his title of "Lord Assassin" sticks him right between the Hexerises), and probably the caster I was least excited about running with the Gargantuan.

This week I once again played against the Legion opponent from last week, this time running Saeryn. He used to play Saeryn against me fairly regularly, but I haven't actually seen her on the table in a while. Saeryn is definitely a warlock to watch out for, especially for a faction that relies so much on melee attacks to get things done.

My List

eMorghoul
* Mammoth
* Krea
* Gladiator
* Brute
* Archidon

Willbreaker
Nihilators

And my opponent's list:

* Angelius
* Ravagore
* Scythean
* Shredder
* Raek

Succubus
2 X Shepherds
2 X Forsaken
2 X Deathstalkers

Mammoth batreps, Part 3 - eHexeris

Another Mammoth battle report this week! the third caster in the alphabetical lineup is Lord Aribiter Hexeris. This is one of the casters that looks really really good with the Mammoth on paper. he's already a really strong answer to high def infantry swarms, so adding a Mammoth in for even more infantry domination seems good. also, black spot with a giant ROF 3 cannon is too good to pass up.

Of course, going through every caster in order doesn't let me pick my match-ups at all, so I wasn't necessarily going to get to try out an infantry heavy match like Khador, ret, or cryx. instead I played against an eVayl Tier 4 (when's the last time anyone's played against a non-tier eVayl? her tier is stupid good) list with a lot of heavies.

My List 

eHexeris
* Mammoth
* Raider
* Krea
* Gladiator

Marketh
Soulward
Agonizer
Willbreaker
Max swordsmen + UA
min paingivers

Mammoth batreps, Part 2 - Rasheth

The Mammoth battle reports continue. this week I got one more game in with the Mammoth, this time using something completely different. Continuing working through every Skorne caster, the second to appear alphabetically is Dominar Rasheth. Not only would this game be my first time ever using the obese dominar, but I decided it was a perfect time to try out the new theme force presented in the latest No Quarter. This week I would be pitting my Mammoth proxy against the Mountain King, led by eDoomshaper.
