Pedro Kantor 175

Elites
5 termies- 4TH SS 1 LC 200
Land Raider Redeemer- extra armor 255

Troops
10 marines- missile launcher melta gun 175

Heavy

Vindicater 115

Land Raider Redeemer- extra armor 255

I expect the field to look something like loota spam horde orks, mech chaos, 2 sisters players with 3 exorcists, 1 space marine player with a somewhat identical list to mine, 1 dark angel player, 1 space marine bike army, a tyranid player, and possibly a guard player.

Wish me luck!

Good luck but why Kantor?

Stubborn and +1 A im guessing

Kantor w/ termies probably.

Darkness got it. That's really the only reason I chose Kantor.

So round 1
pitched battle
5 OBJ's

My opponent orks

His list looks like (from memory)
Warboss- klaw

2 units of 10 lootas

3 units of 12 trukk boyz- klaws in trukks

2 units of 20 shootas

1 unit of 20 sluggas

5 deff koptas

20 storm boyz

super expensive battle wagon

My thoughts about the list, if he goes first he's gonna be half way up the board and he's gain board controll and OBJ controll meaning im fighting an up hill battle. I need to kill the dee koptas and trukks fast to drop his mobility.

So onto OBJ placement most of them were in the middle 1 was right in front of my deployment zone and the other was rigth in front of his.

Deployment
He wins roll to go first and chooses to. He deploys a wall of boys in middle lootas to the sides deff koptas and stormboyz on 1 flank and trukk boyz on another flank.
For me there's a huge piece of are terrain in the center so I didn't want to put my land raiders to the center. I put each 1 and a vindicater to 1 ide of the area terrain. and put the troops behind them waitting to capture the OBJ's. The attack bikes were hiding behind the tanks.

His Turn 1
He does something I shouldv'e seen coming but didn't so it caught me off guard. He turbo boosted his trukks in front of my termie raider and vindie causeing a very large roadblock for half of my army. My initial reaction to this was to swing around and overload the other flank and hit the center from the other flank. But he saw this aswell and moved his stormboyz behind the boyz in the center so that the only thing on the other flank was 10 lootas. That's really all that happened.

My Turn 1
I spread back on the road blocked flank and kill 2/3 of the trukks but 1 reamained and the boy squads indide were wittled down to half. The vindicater on the other flank popped 2 deffkoptas and the assualt cannon from a raider put a wound on 1.

His Turn 2
His army advances and is in my face litterally. His sluggas and warboss exit the battle wagon and charge the termie raider but accomplish nothing. his boyz from the trukks that were blown up charge the razorback and kill it and charge 2 attack bikes and kill the them. The other unit that didnt get its trukk bllown up went to the other flank and killed that flanks vindicater.

My Turn 2
I try to kill as many orks as I can with shooting and kill the wounded trukk boy squads. 1 of the raiders uses machine spirit to thin out the horde with its flamer and ass cannon a trukk. Pedro Kantor and 5 marinesd unloaded from their rhino and killed the unit inside of it. 10 marines hopped out of their raider and after a flamer and 9 pistol shots 17/20 of a shoota squad remained GREAT SHOOTING!... The other redeemer unloaded its termies and shot up the sluggas that unloaded. Then the termies and tacticals charged their respected squads. The tacticals lost 7 and killed 1... epic fail... the termies lose 2 and kill about half of the unit.

His Turn 3
The storm boyz that were following up behind him moved up to charge the termies and killed them. My epic failing tactical squad died and the lootas weapon destroyed and immobilized 1 vindie and stunned the other.

My Turn 3
I plan for this to be last turn since there were 20 mins left in the round so I move everything to contest the OBJ's and the land raider combine to blow a whole unit out of the water so I could claim that OBJ with Pedro and friends who hopped in a land raider.

I suggest to him we should end it here since we might not have time to goo through a whole turn but, he persists that we play on so I comply.

His Turn 4
kill my attack bikes kill the stunned vindicater and contest an OBJ with the deff koptas it now 2-0 him.

My Turn 4
Land raider contest 1 of his OBJ's. And I shoot down the deff koptas with pedro and friends who unloaded and the land raider they were in.

That's all she wrote.

It went to VP's and he had 1100ish and I had 400ish. So he got 11 and I got 9 after bonus points it was 13-10.

So walking in to round 2 with 10 BP's means I can't win but I could still place 2nd or third.

Next round sisters.

Next time can you post the battle report all at the same time?

Kantor without sternguard? Wow. Your list is pretty close to one that I've run with Vulkan. Personally I like thunderfires better than vindicators. However I'm trying to field one of each now. I'm looking forward to seeing the next two reports!

Round 2
Opponent Sisters

His list from memory

2 jump cannoness's- cannoness stuff?

5 celestians- 2 meltas immolater

2 units of 10 sisters melta heavy flamer book in rhinos

8 grey knights- 2 psy cannons

inquisitor and mystics in land raider

3 exorcists

Mission spearhead 5 OBJ's

Judging from his list I think he can't really stop my raider at range so I should just use them to screen the rest of my army and hit him all at once right in his face but, I should leave some units back to capture OBJ's.

Deployment I win the roll for first and take it, I pick the side with 4 OBJ's easily in arms length forcing my opponent to move his few troops to capture them.

My Turn 1
Move up use the raider to block LOS to my army pop smoke.

His Turn 1
he shoots and immobilizes the raider with the termies damn. He also knock the 5 man squad with a missile down to just a missile.

My Turn 2
I keep trudging forward i shake 1 exorcist and the bikes kill his raider. My termies get out of their immobilized raider and hide behind the immobile 1 which is just inches away from his army. That 1 marine leaves the OBJ he was holding to go chill in the immobile raiderr which is conveinently withen 3" of another OBJ!

His Turn 2
move around pop a vindie and immobilze the second raider with a meltagun from inside a rhino. He also kills 1 squad of bikes.

My Turn 3
My termies move out from behind cover and launch a 2 vehicle assualt which kills both unloading 10 sisters and 5 celestians! The marines from inside the raider walk out and prepare for the worst as there are 2 jump cannonesses that will charge them next turn but they must in order to remove his last sister squad and grey knights. The immmobilized redeemer who was inches away from the enemy kills 4 gtrey knights with his flamer and the rhino that 10 sisters were hiding in. Marines cahrge in and kill the grey knights and 4 sisters but lose 3.

His Turn 3
Jump cannonesses charge marines we fight wittle down sisters and i have 4 left. Termies get shot a lot but only lose 1. Another vindie immobilized and weapon destroyed.

Just a side note after the bottom of Turn 3 I held 3 OBJ's and 2 were contested.

My Turn 4
Marines keep fighting losng 1 more. Termies charge the sisters and he forgets to faith and i kill them, redeemer kills 3 celestians. Kantor charges an exorcist but accomplishes nothing.

His Turn 4
Try to capture the OBJwith no one on it with a sister squad. Kantor takes 2 exorcists to the face and survives.

Now its 3-1

My Turn 5
assualt cannon from the redeemer kills the rhino the sisters are hiding in and termies kill em Kantor charges in to the 2 JP cannoness combat and I lose all marines. Kantor is contesting that OBJ

His Turn 5
celestians move and run to try and contest an OBJ but dont run far enough, canneness's kill kantor.

Game ends 3-1 me.

18 battle points! That puts me at 28 and in the running for second/third!

Next round Marines

Didn't expect to see my daemons there did you?

Daemons for da win!

Soooo..... what happened?

No frgs I really didn't, actually a lot more people then I thought showed up which was an interesting surprise!
