These lists are roughs since we were practicing for an upcoming
RTT, we were just trying our lists out to see what we could do with points. This is my first battle report, I have read tons on this site, and after reading Thor's and DoP's reports, I feel I tried to mold my report into their style, ie I didn't delve into the details, I just explained the pictures and the major points. Please let me know if its difficult to read for any reason.
My opponents nickname is Dude, but for jokes a few of our club refer to him as Duke, I may have used both names in this report, here goes:
Wiley's list:
Vulkan Hestan
Korsarro Khan on bike
Command squad on bikes with 4 storm shields, 3 lightning claws and a thunder hammer
6 X 5 Bikes each squad has 2 melta guns, a

Mission:
MAUL RATS
“I love the smell of commerce in the morning!”
Deployment – Dawn of War IGNORING Night Fight.
SPECIAL RULES: The Characters: Before deployment, the player that deploys first chooses ONE unit in their army to be either “Brodie & T.S.” or ”Jay & Silent Bob” and ONE unit in their army to be “LaFours” or “Brandi’s Dad”. The other player then does the same with the characters names that the first player did not choose.
Primary Objective “This is MY Mall” – Use the Seize Ground Mission Rules per the 40k Rulebook (page 91) with the following Exceptions – 1.) ALL units in your army count as Scoring Units. 2.) Every Table will automatically have 5 Objectives. Each objective counts as one of Five Different places in the Mall: The Game Show Stage, The Easter Bunny, Stan Lee, “Time For Cookies” and The Sailboat Picture.
Secondary Objective “Do all there is to do at the Mall” – If you have CONTROLLED EACH of the Objectives at ANYTIME during the game you achieve this objective. You DO NOT have to have controlled them all at the same time. Players should note every Objective when they control it DURING the game. Both players may claim this objective.
Tertiary Objective “Win back the girls and Fly Fat A5$ Fly!” – If your Brodie & T.S. or your Jay & Silent Bob are still alive and not fleeing at the end of the game AND your opponents LaFours or Brandi’s Dad is dead or fleeing at the end of the game, you score this objective. Both players may claim this objective.
I named my command squad jay and silent bob and named Khan LaFours, Duke named his company command J&
SB and the special weapons team with 2 meltas LaFours
The Long View
Objectives and terrain:
We rolled off and I got to deploy first and set up thus:
Careful to stay behind cover in case the initiative was stolen on me, but he deployed a chimera behind a building on my far left and failed to Seize, here comes Khan's Biker boyz!
Everyone zoomed up for me to nab the teriary objective in turn 1! every squad (except vulkan) turbo boosted and I pass the turn
The parking Lot arrives:
from left to right: Chimera with vets, Hydra, Hydra, Leman Russ Executioner, Infantry, Infantry, Psyker battle squad, company command, command section, I guess another infantry platoon and off to the far right is the Manticore that smoked. His shooting almost takes out the front most squad, leaving only the serg with fist staring at a wall of tanks, the rest is mostly ineffective
my deadpool after turn 1
Turn 2: I surge everyone forward, advancing on the targets that I feel are my biggest threats, here i blew the turret off the manticore through its smoke!
Here you can see I stunned 1 hydra, blew the turret off the Leman russ then assaulted it to no avail, immobilized an infantry chimera and stunned the
PBS chimera, time for the
IG to bring the pain!
He seemed upset that I crippled the manticore, so the infantry platoon, manticore and vendetta try to bring the pain on my right flank!
the hydras and vets open up on the left flank and somehow do nothing, there was some damage to the 2 squads in the middle of the table near his executioner but nothing too bad, the plasma command and flamer command open up on my bike squad in the front and rain death to all but the attack bike, PSB ran away and smoked and because He couldn't move the Russ my bikers threw some grenades at it and blew it up.
Turn 3 sees me really lay the melta death, I advance on the parking lot blowing up the hydras, the vet chimera, wrecking the plasma command chimera (which was in assault thus killing the command squad because chimeras only have back hatches), I blow 2 lascannons off the vendetta, and other miscellaneous carnage, next up, demo pack death!
his demo toting vets decided that hanging out in a wreckage was bad form, especially with all the bikers around, so they hoof it towards the bike squad that blew up both hydras and unload their melta death and throw a suitcase of pain at them, deleting them from existence!
The vendetta dumps its flamer/melta troops out and then backs up to hoping to stay out of melta range, and manages to kill all but the attack bike but since he rapid fired his flashlights he couldn't charge.
The middle of the field is a mess, those pesky PSB are finally causing me heartache, Duke not wanting my command squad in the middle of his army decides to lower their
ld to 2 then unload a ton of shooting to get thru their feel no pain and 3+ invul saves to get 2 wounds thru, morale check sees them fall back to still within 6 of the chimera, he wounds the attack bike and laughs at vulkan who was standing around in the difficult terrain
turn 4, my bikers didn't really like watching their brethren be blown to bits before their very eyes, so they return the favor to the vets.
The bikers in the back decide that enough is enough and they blow up the PSB chimera, during assault the serg
pf and vulkan tag team the company command chimera to blow it up.
and some crafty shooting sees my attack bike move close to the vendetta, but also within charge distance of the special weapons team, and the other move back to be within melta range, and I shoot him first, blowing the vendetta outta they sky, so in turn the other one shoots and assaults the special weapon team.
speaking of suitcases of pain....the valk shows up hauling the other special weapons team, and they jump out and drop their 2 suitcases...eradicating all but the attack bike! who fails his morale check and hoofs it
my turn he keeps running trying to shoot down the valk on the run, to no avail
carnage ensues in the middle of the field as I position my command squad to claim 2 objectives, my bike squad blows up the chimera then assaults the infantry platoon, and completely wiff staying locked in combat, the
pf serg rolls into the PSB overseer and wiffs staying locked up, vulkan flames the command section blowing them away.
He moves up to claim an objective, but fails to kill the attack bike, so when the game doesn't end, Duke surveys the field and decides to call it, giving me the middle two objectives to win the primary
and I claimed the secondary and tertiary as well, victory for the Biker Boyz!
