(this cant have happened, this was a mistake that we made, daemons are fearless... So think of it as she moved out of the way and stood under a tree!, I've corrected the Eldar KP score to show that she's still on the table... thanks to The Defenestrator for spotting this... and duh! to me for trying to tank shock a herald!)

A massive victory for Ian! practically tabled me!!! all I had left was the weaponless WS...
I'm Not sure what exactly what I did wrong... bad army selection? OutClassed?
I think Ian used his army wonderfully, everything had a purpose..


-------------

Panic...
-------------

Edit: Lots of edit to fix spellings/events/actions/picture order and to add the ARMY Lists..

Excellent battlereport. What gorgeous armies!
And the photos made it easy to follow the flow of the battle.

I'm surprised your shooting couldn't take out more daemonettes and/or fiends.
That daemonette breaking the seer council probably sealed your doom.

excellent rep.

Hehe, very nice battle. Your Eldar are nicely painted too

liking the soulgrinder. nice pics. short and concise summary of the events. love it

Aha, it's finally up! But the thread title says "Nurgle CsM vs Daemons" !

yeah...
It took a while probabily because it was hard to make the effort to show everyone the kicking that I recieved! haha...
gak i copied and pasted the title from another daemonette bat rep post title... I'm so lazy! Funny no one else noticed?

It was a Great game thou. I think It made a pretty cool bat rep.

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger and all that?
Daves finnished painting his first block of mech. ultramarines, so hopefully we'll see that on a table some time soon.

PAnic...

Nice report. The pictures made it very easy to follow.

Yeah, nice pics and everything! How did you paint the Eldar tank doo-dads? They're pretty sweet...

I'm curious, does your batrep say you tank shocked a daemon unit and it ran off the table....?


PS I like the blue on the wave serpents, and the custom soul grinder. fits nicely with this ancient metal slaaneshi army

Wow..a truely wonderful reprt there Panic! Great pics and very detailed. A hearty "Thanks" out to you and sorry about your loss.

YEah,
Gawd that's a terrible mistake... your right & I don't now how we missed that? All Deamons are fearless especially the leaders!!! thanx for spotting the mistake. I don't think it terribly effected the game thou being the only think i had left was the WS! so i've edited the batrep to show The herad would have still been on the table, So yeah the final result is:

end of turn 5 and end of game! --- daemons 8 KP --- Eldar 4 KP

thanks for the comments guys, I had loads of fun I really enjoy playing against Ians armies, daemons are no exception, they are really hard to hold off...
I need to get a third army ready, so that there is a bit of variation in my batreps...

I also realy like Ians soul grinder, Ian told be about it over the phone and I was like "your making a slannesh SG out of a nurgle GUO and some space-crusade parts" ..'yeah'.... "I dun think it'll work!" but yeah he proved me wrong... the laughing deamon Machine fits perfectly with a pleasure seeking army...

I like to think I take my bashing defeats fairly well, but i know I can get a bit down hearted... all i can say is well done, I want a rematch!!! haha

PAnic...

Sounds to me like you had some bad luck here and there... Also, your army list is a bit shady I think, but I guess that is every man for himself.

Great report though!

thats a great report panic, as ever. thanks for the effort
