The desert world seemed safe. The distress transmissions had stopped as the Space Marines pulled out of warp drive. But a quick scan of the planet revealed it was worse than it had appeared... much worse. The hive mind had landed on the surface and new tyranid monstrosities were now rising from teeming pools of biomatter. Vulkan called for a quick insertion team to land on the planet with a limited Biomass group, so that if they should fail they would not feed the stomachs of some fell beast. The master of the forge awoke several Dreadnoughts from slumber, including one of the chapters oldest to lead its reborn brothers into battle. And climbing aboard their drop pods they hurtled towards the planet to cleanse the infestation with Vulkan's glorious fire.

Another good report with excellent pics. I really like the big one above, as I can make out some nice details.

I think if you click on any of the other pictures they should blow up to that size as well.

Great report thanks for sharing. I like that I am seeing more TFC around lately, I am intrigued with the idea of bringing a list with 2 or 3 of them.

Cool batrep.

Question: Is that domed structure a commercial piece or something someone made?

Yeah Ive been using mine for about a month, and it was truly amazing at this event there were no less than 5 people using thunderfire cannons which was amazingly high.

My friend is planning to try out a list with 2 or 3 in it for a league starting, and I bought a second one with the prize money to try out some lists with 2 as well.

As to that Ct gamer, I dont know. They have a high mix of terrain at Grim from GW stuff to stuff cast and made by people connected to the store. Next time Im there I could ask for you and drop you a pm or something when I find out.

Nice game and it always sucks when your dice show you no love
