I never thought this would happen; and it may be because of bad rolling, it can also be because of my habit of keeping it fluffy but even my psuedo competitive lists are gettign wrecked by.... sternguard..... We played a 2k game today and i besically got obliterated. can i get some advice? i play strictly undivided WB CSM, though i will use cult troops if need be.

I had:
2x1 DP's with Warptime, Wings, MON
2x1 Dreds with HF, extra CCW,
3x 10 CSM 1 Champ, 1 Melta, 1 ICG in a rhino
2x5 lesser deamons
Summoned G deamon
2x3 oblits (should have been 3x2)

He had:
Sicarius with sternguards
Tiberius
Sternguard vets, combat squad
2x10 combat squad tects 1 with las 1 with ML
10 man tacs with camp with fist in a rhino, 5 man in a razorback

he basically just went forward and wrecked shop, what should I do? We have been playing as long as one another but he plays or has played much more competitive than I in the past.

1 Razorback w/ Lascannon/TL-Plasmagun
1 Rhino

I feel like I only one because I kept you at an arms-length until I knew I could handle you in assault. Plus with my objective in the middle of my deployment zone, I forced you to walk forward into a lane of fire that couldn't really be avoided unless you deepstruck dead into it. What really did it was counter attacking and then retreating backward to defend the point with my consolidating. I wasn't aiming to get your objective from you at all. I meant to tie you up back there as long as I could and keep you from getting mine. I aimed for a draw, and tapped an attempted win near the end. I just waited until your resources were low enough to force a win or annihilate the surrounding area. I held back four units(The Greater Demon, Lesser Demons, Rhino, and Chaos Marine squad) in order to mitigate the strength of the rest of the army. I essentially cut you off at the pass.

Could have just pm'ed it! bwaahah

no doubt it was a very good game, just a great strategist on the other side!
