Well, if you directing all you attacks on the noble, any excess wounds would have been discounted. He would have won the combat.

Ah yeah, I've suggested that but he doesn't want to.

Sounds like he is predisposed to wantting to lose.

There was no challenge issued because I didn't want him to have the chance to decline. I just directed all of my attacks at the noble.

As for switching armies, I used to play dwarves and actually switched to lizardmen for just this reason. My dwarves used to destroy him every time as well! Feeling bad for the guy. High Elves just seem to suck and are overpriced. ASF is great but otherwise, they die so easily.

You know, I also (used to*) play dwarves. And I also beat my High elf opponent on a very regular basis (or a draw in my favor).
I switched to lizardmen for numerous reasons, but the outcome has only become worse for him.
WIth lizardmen, I am able to massacre him sooo often...
I agree with you on High elves. T3+expensive troops=bad. Dark elves compensate this by good magic item selection, screening (harpies) and fast cavalry to go for war machines. And Wood elves compensate this by hiding

Challenge part = answered, I won't go into that.

The Hunted

*: I still own my 1.5K of dwarves. But I only use them as proxy for my lizardmen...
The static play is just so boring...And the lizzies have M6 skirmishers, flyers, scouts, good infantry, cavalry, monsters, magic, psychology....pretty much everything the dwarves don't have!
Movement phase makes the game, and since dwarves cannot move (much)-> they cannot make the game.
Lizardmen can move and thus they can make the game (or atleast have a chance at it ).

The carnosaur attacked the noble. The Saurus old one attacked the phoenix guard.
