A Sunday at Marc C's
I had the pleasure of having Greg & Amanda travel to the Far East of the island of the Montreal to try out my
WIP table :
GAME #1 : The Japanese mutineers had the «insolence» of attacking the Imperial Service base. The rebel movement has gained a new champion in the name of O-Yoroi Kidobutai (
TAG et lieutenant). Having faced TAGs before the IS preferred to decimate his support base instead of attack him directly. On the right flank a Celestial Guard with Spitfire was able to move and kill 3 Keisotsu Butai.
Wu Ming
HMG moved laid out suppressive fire to bottle neck the
TAG. The Japanese assault was stalled. O-Yoroi hesitated too long and never did come out of his deployment zone...
At the end of the conflict Hsien sent his Tactbot
HMG on the left flank to attack head on the
TAG. Having cover and mimetism the odds were reasonable. The gamble paid off. The
TAG took 3 wounds and was disabled.
5-3 Win for the Imperial service. The Japanese star of the day was Oniwaban. Who crawled on a sky ramp, jumped down to a balcon, opened a door, charged a unsuspecting
CG Hacker, survived the combi rifle shot and then cut the head off the poor women...
GAME #2 : (Against Amanda) Scavengers arrived at the IS base only minutes after the defeat of the Japanese. Nomads wanted to scavenge the pieces of both sides.
Unfortunately for them Hsien was still in battle mode when they arrived. The IS troops regrouped rapidly and prepared for the worst.
The IS stars of the game were the Kunag Shi link team who crossed the board on the left flank opening the force fields around the power generator of the station. On the other side a Reverend Moiras was waiting for them. Two chain rifle template auto-hits did the job. The Nomads had lost the lieutenant and retreated.
The Nomads lost honourably 3 to 5. Its wasn’t until turn 3 that the battle was decided. Before that Amanda had the advantage 3-2.
all in all it's much more interesting than just shuffling a gunline of space marines around and doing very little.
