Thanks for reading~

Good fight, great report! Makes me want to go beat my buddy's Battle Sisters again...

Good report. I am surprised that the Genestealers survived 3 squads worth of Sisters. My instinct probably would have been to get out in terrain since the stealers do not have grenades and then setup the seraphim to pin them (or a flying nun to do so) on turn 1. That saves from getting locked up in CC turn 1. For sisters getting in CC at all is death, plus it seems like a nice line of stealers was in place for a flamer shot off the bat.

Otherwise, textbook win for the 'nids. Box them in to reduce their mobility and then whittle away with a combination of shooting and assault.

I agree with calypso, all it takes most armies is to squish them against the wall, and make them regret taking on 'nids. overall very well played!

I believe he only disembarked 2 units to fire on the genestealers. He was on either flank of the unit so the flamers only hit 3-4 stealers. He also used the rending miracle on both units.

I did have cover and FnP but don't remember how the dice rolled out but I think 6 casualties is fair. If I remeber correctly, he also fired the unit on the left first. I pulled all casualties from the right and may have even denied range to the unit on the right.

I was surprised that he chose to deep strike the seraphim, but he had to choose before I infiltrated the genestealers in his face.

Game #2 is up!

Game #3 and results are up~

I think you could've taken the BA army on round #3. If you could've screened out his talon furioso with a unit of termagants, that would've probably bought you more time to shoot it to death with your hive guards. Mephiston should be deathly afraid of your genes.

Yeah I think with enough practice against that list I could work some magic. The problem was he sent the furioso out the back door instead of charging ahead like I expected him to. He outplayed me that game and 8 impaler cannon shots failing to do any better then shake the dread hurt.
