The pen is mightier then the sword, but you must keep a sword handy for when the pen runs out of ink.

The Battle for CakeLand II rages!

Nice batrep, pretty straightforward and has some decent pics.

Also, the color scheme on the immortals is nice. At least from what I can see anyhow.

Great report, great pictures. I personally like the green of the honor guard. One thing caught my attention though...

How did the kroot get a first turn assault?

kroot move and shoot at the immortals and Necron lord, killing 2 immortals
Kroot then assault killing 4 more immortals and losing 3 kroot


First, I thought if the kroot shoot they cannot assault (rapid fire). Second, when you infiltrate you must be more than 12" away if out of LoS.

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

Nice to see people having fun with the game.

I'm writing a load of fiction. My latest story starts here... This is the index of all the stories...

We're not very big on official rules. Rules lead to people looking for loopholes. What's here is about it.

Wow, down to the wire. Great game!

All in all, fact is that Warhammer 40K has never been as balanced as it is now, and codex releases have never been as interesting as they are now (new units and vehicles and tons of new special rules/strategies each release -- not just the same old crap with a few changes in statlines and points costs).

Cool report. Easy to follow with brief descriptions and pics.

I like the buildings and roads. Full scale type buildings that actually can block some LOS. Good stuff.

Looking forward to future reports.

No earth shattering, thought provoking quote. I'm just someone who was introduced to 40K in the late 80's and it's become a lifelong hobby.
