So a friend of mine sent me a battle report of a game that I had missed, and I was chatting with my girlfriend who is out of town at a poetry festival. She asked if I had any gossip, so I offered to send her this battle report. She said ok, as long as I make it into a poem. This is what happened.

Orks fight Dark Angels
Both seek to hold the Relic
The Angels strike first

A Predator tank
The touch of Lascannons
Caress a Big Mek

The Battlewagon
Spews forth its cargo of Nobz
The Ravenwing fall

Seeking to avenge
The return fire on the Nobz
Kill half, the rest run

A Tactical squad
Are overwhelmed by the foe
Fall under Choppas

Teleporting in
The Terminators arrive
A Trukk is blown up

A Shokk Attack Gun
Snotlings materialise
In Terminators

Battlewagon dies
Librarian and marines
Rout some of the Boyz

The Relic is grabbed
And hustled into a Trukk
Terminators charged

Relic Trukk blown up
Librarian charges in
A Claw to his face

The last Knight is slain
And Company Master too
By much Ork Dakka

The Predator fires
But still one Ork is left to
Abscond with Relic

Victory for Orks
Their last shot calls a vortex
On the Predator

You get a point for originality, I'll give you that.

Certainly a fun way to present your game. Sounds like a good game it was, too.

3000pts Blood Angels (4th Company) - 2000pts Skitarii (Voss Prime) - 2500pts Imperial Knights (Unnamed House) - 1000pts Imperial Guard (Household Retainers)

2000pts Free Peoples (Edlynd Fusiliers) - 2000pts Kharadron Overlords (Barak Zilfin) - 500pts Ironweld Arsenal (Edlynd Ironwork Federation) - 1000pts Duardin (Grongrok Powderheads)

Wargaming's no fun when you have a plan!

(Also, "haiku", as with every Japanese noun, is invariant, that is to say it doesn't have a separate plural form. )
