Battle Reports... overall 01W 02L - finished 4th

Round 01 versus Black Templars

6x Land Raiders with Supporting Troop units

An even amount of "odd" dice results on both sides kept this game fairly close up to the end. Incoming enemy fire resulted in a heavy loss of anti-tank weaponry on the vehicles, so they quickly became flying razors: used to Ram with surprising good results.

Final Result: Draw...
-- Black Templars win though with a score of 13 to 11

Round 02 versus Dark Angels

An all Infantry list that included two Dreadnoughts

If ever there was a game that proved Mathhammer is a myth, this would be the one. I can't recall ever seeing so many saves rolled by my opponent ! As just one example = in my first turn of shooting, three Vypers Squadrons combined against a single Marine unit and scored 20 wounds - all of which were saved... and things pretty much went the same like that throughout the rest of the battle - Ugghhh !

Final Result: Minor Victory
-- Eldar win with a score of 15 to 8

Round 03 versus Orks

A well balanced mix of supporting units - mainly Infantry with 2 Dreadz

One of the few occasions were I actually deployed my army, rather than reserve the whole thing... no reason to give my opponent two turns to gain ground. The enemy suffered a large number of losses as compared to my side, but the scenario ( 3pt fast issue ) played well into my opponent's favor.

Final Result: Minor Victory...
-- Orks win with a score of 15 to 8

Tough games ! Better luck next year.
