Axe slamming short men

[Gunlinger]

The evening was pure fun (for dwarfs and their temporary magic Elgi allies) and there have been great fights in CW after that Praag massacre. Praag showed what happens when a Blob that focuses on playing around WC buff, gets denied their easy counter push kill farm.
The Axe Slam compo is like a Tank destroyer (like in a literally Tank with tracks and a cannon without a turning tower) . It can only fire in one direction.
The warbands and groups that played that evening in Praag were stuck in the common mindset of ''bigger blob = bigger win''. They chose the narrow battlefield in front of their warcamp. The Axe Slam compo requires time for the pump and strict coordination to connect that hard.
Splitting up the blob, attacking from multiple sides and by that offering only a small target to the M4 drop is the counterplay to it. The adaptation of THAT only came after Praag, when the battle moved over to CW. There the M4 drop hit hard, but was punished afterwards way harder, since there it had hit 1 wb while it got flanked from multiple sides constantly.
Praag WC Axe Slam was the same thing that happened not long ago when extremely high coordinated Phosphorous Shells used to stack and caused havoc on a blob in Black Fire Pass for more then 1 hour, until they finally understood that the counterplay to it is to split up the blob and win the fights by not being one big practicing target.

And everyone that was on the receiving end of the Axe Slam blows that evening and still thinks it would be something unfair or broken, should think about this. The single pug warband that gets roflstomped by a blob of 3 to 4 warbands lead by an organised core WB day by day, fells exactly the same way.
