right. That was really bad. at this point I need to hope for turn 6. If I get it I can close in with my chosen and unload on the boyz. If i can kill enough they will be escorted towards the end of the board with the end result being the game ending and the mek and boyz counting as being destroyed. giving me two extra points and winning me the game i believed at the time.

We roll to continue and flip a

Well, that could have gone better but all in all it was a fun game that could have gone either way. Hope you all enjoyed reading.

I think it could use a little more terrain in either deployment zones but it'll still be a good fight. Lootas are somewhat mitigated due to good deployment by the CSM, and hopefully the KFF will stop a few shots from the havoks, but it could have done better deployed with the KMB kans. I know I'm being a little pre-emptive here, but that's how I see things.

You can never say who will definitely win a battle.
Probability basically controls the game.
The "Better" army can be tabled easily from poor rolls, etc etc.
The poll imho isnt a good idea.

Yeah, laziness on my part didn't get the final buildings built before the game so we made do...

I completely agree with most of what you said, but whether the poll is a good idea or not is debatable. Its more out my interest of peoples opinions then anything else.

i like the big mek

My guess is Orkz, although the Lack of real tankbusting is not good on the Ork side, the Chaos marines seem to have a fair chance but maybe not enough firepower to gun down enough Orkz before they get choppin'.

It could go either way, there is no real way to predict a winner so just see how it goes.

orks win!!!

yep, next time though,next time there will be no http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11_2SswJs4c mwhahahahahah

Kool battle. I believe personally that a decision on who wins in a game of probability is...peculier. If you put it like that, you can see the hole a bit. Maybe make it a lot less YES WIN NO WIN and maybe have more opinions then just Chaos win/ Chaosmebbe/OrksWin/Orksmebbe.

Then again... A post where possibly everyone says *mebbe* Isnt that interesting is it? xD

Come on peeps the OP isnt the first to do the whole who will win poll thing.
Fair enough if you dont like it and its ok to comment on it but in doing so give some feedback on the batrep too.

Nice to see a 1000 points game btw OP, I'd agree though the DZs were a little barren.

Thanks Ratius. Me and my opponent usuall play that point level because it makes you really think about your army selection. You can't take that uber death star if its taking up over half your point cap That and my opponent still hasn't put together the next 500 points of his army
As for the terrain in the deployment zone, yeah it was barren but I finished some more buildings and what not so the next time we play there will be more cover.

the stuff just SITS there....Unbuilt?!....This guy sounds like my kind of player

well, since its you I can see why

worked midnights tonight and this batrep helped get me through it. it was concise and easy to follow, and the lighthearted humor pulled it all together. I really thought the csm had it!


thanks for sharing and keep it up!
