Iron Moot 2017 Sunday Steamroller Game 2: Ossrum vs Thexus

For my second game, I went against Amund Stokke with a double Cephalyx pair. I thought that I can likely assassinate either one with Ossrum.

He chose Thexus, the usual 60 drudge list: two wreckers, 30+30 drudges, two overlords, two agitators.


Amund went first. Since Thexus is skewed to the right slightly, I skew to the right slightly. I put my Crawler on the side, since I think it can survive ambushers no problem.


Drudges run up. Deceleration is up.


I run up, keeping front bunnies more than 12" away from the wrecker. The sniped avalancher does some initial damage on the said wrecker.


Cephalyx swarm the board and I get not three but six adrenal flood guys into my crawler (which survives). But it doesn't matter, because Thexus is in a very bad position, basically asking to be killed.

I feat and put unsoppable force up, and Ossrum moves far forward to spread Bulldoze range to the wrecker's position near the wall. Then a bunny runs up to the wrecker, bulldozing everything around, and finally bulldozing the wrecker alongside the wall. This gets the wrecker outside of 3" of Thexus. Thorvalancher aims and goes to RAT11 (with H&J), needing a boosted 7 to KD Thexus. This happens, and three shots later Thexus is dead.
