Rematch!


Lelith Hesperax Vs. Jain Zar
Round 2
(The battle of the scary Eldar close combat ladies take 2)

This is now Jain Zar's change to use her new shiny 6th ED rules to her advantage and wipe the floor with the Dark Eldar upstart Lelith.

Re-Introducing:
 Jain Zar



Last times victor, Lelith

Now last time Jain Zar got destroyed in just over 1 round of combat, how will she fair with a new 6th ED stat line and rule set.

Let the rematch begin!

Round 1
Jain Zar  rolls against Lelith for disarming strike and succeeds 5 vs 4, so Lelith's shardnet and impaler count as just a ccw for the first combat turn.

Lelith goes first with her mental Initiative of 9

7 attacks in total! (4 base plus 1 extra for the 2nd ccw and 2 for the difference in her and Jain Zar's WS), and manages to score all 7 hits! and that converts into 3 wounds!

Jain Zar has once again been slayed by the Queen of close combat! In one turn no less.

Summary
Well that was short and sweet, kind of what you would expect a fight between these two to be like, over in the blink of an eye.

It looks like the banshees should be following Lelith into battle along side the Wyches, even with a 6th edition re-boot Jain Zar got minced.  No Invun save really hindered her in combat :(



Now just for arguments sake, I am going to re-try the first round of combat with Jain Zar assaulting, getting to use her mask and see if that would make any difference.

First off disarming strike, and it works.

Round 1
Then the Mask of Jain Zar knocks Lelith's WS and I down to 4, so Jain Zar hits first for 6 attacks (4 base, +1 for the extra ccw, +1 for charging) and due to Lelith's weakened WS Jain Zar scored 5 hits, converting them into 2 wounds, and with her re-roll that becomes 4.

With her 3+ Invun Lelith only manages to save 1, so she takes 3 wounds.
Summary
So, in summary, whoever charges into combat first out of these two ladies will slaughter the other in one round of bloody combat.

But i think with her all round awesomeness (not relying on the one doing the charging against most targets) Lelith is still the combat queen!


Can anyone stop this close combat queen?

Your guess is as good as mine, but we shall see in the future (This isn't turning into a 'what does it take to kill Lelith' competition, though I bet that would be interesting to find out).
