The goal for this list was to take the enemy flag out with the Exemplar Errants and use Self Sacrifice to reduce the effects of the opponent's counter-charge. When everyone is clumped up, pFeora will pop her feat and take out all the enemy infantry nits with continuous fire. The Avatar and Crusader are there to deal with all the Heavies.

Kill Shot - Kromac Decapitates pFeora

Kromac makes a comeback and assassinates pFeora

What I learned:

If you are playing too timid in Steamroller scenarios and not worried about holding zones, your opponent will slam, push, pull, throw and force you to move your precious units into unfavorable positions so you don't lose to points causing you to lose the game instead through attrition or assassination.

Feora was definitely up on attrition but was forced to move too close because Circle was up on points and would win on the next turn if she didn't. This allowd for Kromac to beast out and assassinate her to snatch victory from her cold dead hands.
