So I decided da boyz were gunna get dem some shiney gitz! I was mostly playing against my self, as he would constantly ask me for "tips" but he did make his own decisions once in awhile. 1k pts

After set up we ended up rolling for Seize ground and Dawn of war. I let the wee one decide who sets up/goes first, naturally, he picked himself

Turn one

At the end of turn one, nothing crazy happened. Lord VOD a unit of warriors a bit to close to the Dred. They let off a hail of shots with nothing happening to the Dred. It returned fire, must of been to excited over combat for the first time in a week, and sadly, just peppered the ground. The mob of shoota boyz+Mek fired but couldnt see anything, they were happy just to shoot the air That was the same with everything else that tried shooting.
Turn Two

The dred shot some more, and was basically a waste of time. The shoota boy mob went nuts, and sprayed down 5 warriors. Someone was aiming! The deff koptas let loose and downed a destroyer. The Gitz rolled a 1 for ap, and downed a few warriros on the objective. The dred took off and bull charged the lord/warriors.

And did horrendous. Me thinks he needs more table time, that or I painted to much rust on him
Turn Three

The Lord VOD out of combat. My son decided on his own, that Immortals were where its at (makes me proud he does) He wanted to break the lord off of the warriors and stick him with the Immortals. Reason being, they let loose on the dred and scored 2 weapon destroyed AND a stun. Talk about SUCK! Warriors on objective shoot at the slugga boy mob and score a few kills. Destroyers blow up one of the deff jets.
Orks: BigMek and crew move to the building to take an objective thats on top next turn. Sluggas keep moving towards the warriors on an objective. Gitz let loose a few more shots, and down a couple more warriors.
Turn Four

This turn is simply put a fire fight.
Necrons: Lord breaks away from warriors and stands close enough to Immortals so he can join them. Warriors tried to get across the board to do something, I think my son was just confused on them Bunch of gauss on the dred, and finally score an Immobolised. Destroyers move around some terrain and shoot at the slugga boyz, didnt really do much, THANKS COVER SAVES!
Orks: Between the Gitz, the shootas in the building and the sluggas, the warriors on the Objective finally go down and stay down. Thats how we do things! Deffjet blows up one destroyer, and assaults the last one, slicing it into pieces with its saw. The grots were WAY to freaked out from the gauss to fix anything useful
Turn Five

Necrons: These shiney boyz got PISSED at our shooting. The Lord/Immortals VOD in range to hammer on the slugga boyz. Them + Destroyers = a whole DEAd unit of boyz. Ouch.
Orks: Dred, FINALLY, the driver gets them lousy grots to get it up and running. Shootas in building, make some hits, but failed to do anything to the warriors. The Deffjet heads towards the warriors to get some CC goodness. I think I dropped 1 with shooting, cant remember. The kopta assaults, and drops one, only to get murdered in CC. Necrons can do that? Weird. Gitz wanted to prove the Immortals were anything but, and smoked a couple.
Turn six final turn

Necrons: Immortals all WBB, dammit. They shoot and do a terrible amount of wounds on the Gitz, but I rolled a holy gak ton of FNP saves and laughed at my son. He punched me. Warriors did nothing for some reason.
Orks: Shootas hammered on the warriors, and only downed a couple. GItz let loose again and laid out 3 Immortals.....again. The dred moved and ran. He knew if it went another turn those Immortals were going to be his lunch for gaussing him so badly.

And that was it. Necrons lose out, even though Lord KCjr fought valiantly, he couldnt hold his forces together. The Orks were the victors for the day. I proved to myself yet again, that Ork shootas are just great, the amount of shots they can throw down makes up for the lack of looking down the barrel(or at their targets even) I didnt even need the PK nobs I took, the shootas got stuck in the building and the sluggas, well they just got pulverized and didnt do much of anything other then eat bullets.

Intresting choice on the Flash Ditz. Nice too see them but would never have taken Shootier if you wanted too use thoose 40P on them give them Cybork bodies.

Wow, finally a response


Yea, I use the Gitz every now and then, and usually they work out decently. I always take shootier just because the extra STR nets more wounds. I might play around with the cyborks next time I take them against some SM.

Glad someone got a game in this weekend...

I meant to with my kiddos, but various adult-projects in and around the house kept me occupied...

Nice. I need to put together more shoota boys. My Eldar friend doesn't think they're that effective. I need to educate him on this.

Nice report, btw

Its wery interesting to see shooty ork list in action. Nice job with the report.

Good battle. I never put anything where bs matters on my Dreads, I just find they never do much with them, yet are insanely effective with extra fists or skorchas. Never used gits thanks to their pts cost either, but it was nice to see them used effectively.

I almost wish I had a progeny to play Warhammer with, but the world is probably thankful I don't.

Oh, I also forgot to complement you on the creative terrain.

Well thanks for all the compliments everyone. My only problem is I see the table and terrain and realize that I need to get around to finishing it all. The table top is a cork board I got from a factory closing down around here, and as you can tell, apparently the workers there didnt know how to keep their hands/drinks off the thing

Shooty Orks - Youd be surprised at how good Orks are at shooting. People get scared with their BS2 but they just vomit shots and you end up making up for that. Not to mention they are still Orks, and so can do damage on the assault.
