Not being able to assault from reserve is what killed stealers for me. Having some in reserve waiting to outflank really messed with the opponents deployment and movement. They should have become cheaper without that.

5 Stealers and a broodlord infiltrating within 24 of the ideal Horror target, and then grabbing a midfield objective, worked well in some games last night. Putting objectives behind midfield LOS blockers for them to sit on was easy enough. They even ran out and gutted a Terminator unit in one game, Space Hulk flashbacks.

I love this Nid series of batreps. Keep them coming! Please have them fight Chaos, the "other bad dex."

@Chris: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

@Reese: 1000 bonus karma points. You're a good guy... for several reasons.

SIDE NOTE: You might enjoy a chaos v nids or (my preference) orks v nids.

Chaos vs Nids will definitely have to happen! Haha, slap fight, 6th ed!

@Moosatronic

Yeha, me too. They just die in droves trying to get across the table at a high price point.

@Historian

JY2 is coming by today to take a swing at me! We'll see what he has pulled out of the dex.

@doktor G

Hey, it was a birthday request, and it made him happy as a clam, so it;s all good! =)

I noticed in one of the shooting rounds it was noticed that the venomthrope gives shrouded to models within 6", but it wasn't noted that units with at least one model with shrouded get the cover bonus.

Other than that, good battle report. I always love the narrative forging.

That marine army.....wtf?

That's the literal definition of a battle force army.

Missile/flamer tactical squads?
Tactical terminators?
Terminator commander?

This is the worst marine list I've seen since the 6th edition codex.

@ the last couple of posters:

You might want to read the thread (or at least the bat-rep intro) before you pass comment guys.
